DRIVING TIPS
Fuel consumption, engine, transmission,
brake and tyre wear are mainly affected by
the below factors:
Operating conditions of your vehicle •
Your personal driving style •
Operating Conditions
Avoid frequent starts and stops as •
these actions increase the fuel con-
sumption of the vehicle.
Always ensure correct tyre pressure. •
Do not carry any unnecessary weight. •
Regularly service your vehicle and ad- •
here to the recommended service
maintenance schedule.
Personal Driving Style
Do not press the accelerator pedal •
when starting the engine.
Do not warm up the engine when the •
vehicle is stationary.
Always adapt your driving style to suit •
the prevailing road, weather condi-
tions, and maintain a safe distance
from the vehicle in front. Drive care-
fully.
Avoid frequent, sudden acceleration •
and braking.
Select appropriate gear according to •
varying speeds and load conditions.
Switch ‘OFF’ the engine in stationary •
traffic or at signals.
Keep an eye on the vehicle’s fuel con- •
sumption.
Safety systems are merely aids de- •
signed to assist driving. You are re-
sponsible for the distance between the
vehicles in front, for vehicle speed and
anticipating braking in good time.
NOTE
Do not rest your foot on the clutch pedal
while driving.
WARNING
You could lose control of your vehi- •
cle if you try to adjust the driver’s
seat, head restraint, mirror, steering
wheel and fasten the seat belt while
driving. There is a risk of an acci-
dent.
Press the clutch fully while shifting •
the gears. The reverse gear should
be engaged only when the vehicle
is stationary. Trans-mission may get
damage by trying to shift into re-
verse gear while the vehicle is mov-
ing. Wait for 5 seconds after
declutching to ensure smooth en-
gagement of the reverse gear or
shift into one of the forward gears
for a moment while clutch is pressed
fully. This will avoid grinding of re-
verse gear while shifting.
