Maintenance and Fuel Economy
You can optimize your fuel economy with proper maintenance of your vehicle.
Always maintain your vehicle according to the service reminder symbols displayed
on the multi-information display. On vehicles without service reminder system,
follow the maintenance schedule in the Service Book that came with your vehicle.
On vehicles without Service Book, follow the maintenance schedule in this owners
manual. If necessary, consult your warranty booklet.
2 Maintenance Schedule
• Use engine oil with the viscosity recommended by the ACEA or API Certification
Seal.
• Maintain the specified tyre pressure.
• Do not load the vehicle with excess luggage.
• Keep your vehicle clean. A buildup of snow or mud on your vehicle's underside
adds weight and increases wind resistance.
