ENVIRONMENTAL NOTE Environmental

the following recommendations on operating
conditions and your personal driving style.
Operating conditions:
Make sure that the tire pressures are
#
always correct.
Do not carry any unnecessary weight in
#
the vehicle.
Observe the service intervals.

A regularly serviced vehicle will contrib‐
ute to environmental protection.
Always have maintenance work carried
#
out at a qualified specialist workshop.
Personal driving style:
Do not depress the accelerator pedal
#
when starting the engine.
Do not warm up the engine while sta‐
#
tionary.
Drive carefully and maintain a sufficient
#
distance to other vehicles.
Avoid frequent, sudden acceleration and
#
braking.
Shift gears in good time and use each
#
gear only up to Ô of its maximum
engine speed.
Switch off the engine when in stationary
#
traffic for a prolonged time.
Drive in a fuel-efficient manner.

Environmental issues and recommendations
It is recommended that you re-use or recycle

tions serve to protect the environment and
