ECONOMICAL OPERATION

•  Don't  "ride" the brake  pedal. This can
increase  fuel  consumption   and  also
increase  wear on  these  components.
In addition,  driving with your  foot rest-
ing on the  brake pedal may cause  the
brakes   to  overheat,   which  reduces
their  effectiveness  and   may  lead  to
more serious consequences.
•  Take  care   of  your  tires.  Keep  them
inflated to the recommended pressure.
Incorrect  inflation, either  too much  or
too  little,  results  in  unnecessary  tire
wear. Check the tire pressures at least
once a month.
•  Keep  your  vehicle in  good  condition.
For better  fuel  economy and  reduced
maintenance costs, maintain your vehi-
cle  in   accordance  with   the  mainte-
nance  schedule  in  section  7.  If  you
drive your vehicle in severe conditions,
more frequent maintenance is required
(see section 7 for details).
•  Keep your vehicle clean. For maximum
service,  your  vehicle  should  be  kept
clean and free of corrosive materials. It
is especially  important  that mud,  dirt,
ice, etc. not  be allowed to  accumulate
on  the underside  of  the  vehicle. This
extra  weight  can  result  in  increased
fuel  consumption and  also  contribute
to corrosion.
•  Travel lightly.  Don't carry  unnecessary
weight in your vehicle. Weight reduces
fuel economy.
•  Don't  let  the  engine idle  longer  than
necessary. If you  are waiting  (and not
in  traffic),   turn  off  your  engine   and
restart only when you're ready  to go.
Your  vehicle's   fuel  economy   depends
mainly on your style of driving, where you
drive and when you drive.
Each of  these factors  affects how many
kilometers (miles) you can get from a liter
(gallon)  of fuel. To  operate  your vehicle
as economically as possible, use  the fol-
lowing driving  suggestions  to help  save
money in both fuel and repairs:
Drive smoothly. Accelerate at a moder-
ate rate. Don't make "jack-rabbit" starts
or  full-throttle   shifts  and  maintain  a
steady   cruising   speed.   Don't   race
between stoplights.  Try to  adjust your
speed to the traffic so you don't have to
change  speeds   unnecessarily.  Avoid
•  Be  sure  that  the wheels  are  aligned
correctly.   Improper
alignment    can
result from  hitting curbs or  driving too
fast over irregular surfaces. Poor align-
ment causes  faster tire wear and  may
also result in other problems as well as
greater fuel consumption.
heavy
traffic
whenever
possible.
Always maintain  a safe  distance from
other vehicles so you can avoid unnec-
essary   braking.   This   also  reduces
brake wear.
Drive at a  moderate speed. The faster
you  drive, the  more  fuel your  vehicle
uses.  Driving  at  a   moderate  speed,
especially on the highway, is one of the
most effective ways to reduce fuel con-
sumption.
