Drive Sensibly - Save Fuel
Fuel consum ption, to a great extent,
depends on driving habits and operat­
ing conditions.
To save fuel you should:
• keep tires at the recom m ended
inflation pressures
• remove unnecessary loads
• remove ski racks or roof-m ounted
luggage racks when not in use
• allow engine to warm up under low
load use
• avoid frequent acceleration and
deceleration
• have all m aintenance w ork per­
form ed at regular intervals by an
authorized MERCEDES-BENZ
dealer.
Fuel consum ption is also increased
by driving in cold weather, in stop-
and-go traffic, on short trip s and in
hilly country.
