5-1. DRIVING TIPS
Remove unnecessary
cargo
Additional weight increases fuel
consumption.
Remove attached parts fol-
lowing use
Attached parts on the vehicle
impair the aerodynamics and
increase the fuel consumption.
Closing the windows
Open windows increase air
resistance and therefore lead to
greater fuel consumption.
Tires
General information

various ways, for instance tire
size may influence consump-
tion.
Check the tire inflation pres-
sure regularly
Check and, if needed, correct
the tire inflation pressure at least
twice a month and before start-
ing on a long trip.
Low tire inflation pressure
increases rolling resistance and

and tire wear.

Driving smoothly and proactively

Avoid unnecessary acceleration
and braking.
By maintaining a suitable dis-

ahead of you.
Avoid high engine speeds

lowers fuel consumption and
reduces wear.
If necessary, observe the vehi-
