Fuel saving
Driving custom
Moderate driving is helpful to save fuel.
Rapid acceleration, abrupt cornering and
hard braking use more fuel.
Always drive in the highest gear possible, it
can make the engine run and accelerate
more stably.
According to the traffic status, try to keep a
constant speed. Every time you slow down
and speed up, you vehicle uses extra fuel.
Using cruise control (limit to some vehicle
type) can save more fuel under appropriate
driving condition.
Cool engine uses more fuel than hot engine,
but it is not necessary to make it run in idle
speed for a long time to preheating. NO
matter how cold outdoor, you can drive the
vehicle away after one minute that you start
the engine. In this way, engine will rise
temperature more quickly, and save more
fuel. To reduce times of ―cool starting‖, you
should arrange short mileage driving
together.
The air condition puts an extra loading on
the engine which makes it use more fuel.
Close the air condition to reduce fuel
consumption. Use the fresh-air ventilation
when air temperature out of vehicle is
proper.
