Fuel Economy / Tips for Economical Driving
Several factors contribute to your vehicle’s fuel economy, such as maintenance of your vehicle, driving style, environmental conditions, vehicle weight and vehicle aerodynamics Below are some tips on how to help improve fuel economy:
For illustrative purposes only Your actual display, but tons and/or features may var y
Refer to Section 7 in the Owner ’s Manual for more information
•Use the climate control system less often Use the Driver Only* setting as much as possible
•Keep your vehicle in good condition with regular maintenance
•Drive at a moderate speed, accelerating smoothly and at a moderate rate
•Keep tires inflated to the recommended pressure
•Travel lightly, without carrying unnecessary weight in your vehicles
•Avoid placing large or heavy items on roof racks
•Avoid hilly, winding or poorly maintained roads
A
•Even with TPMS, tire pressure should be checked manually at least once a month Only adjust tire pressure on “cold tires” that have been sit ting for 3 hours or more, and tires that are not hot in temperature from direct sunlight or heat
•For proper maintenance and optimal fuel economy, maintain the recommended tire inflation pressures and stay within the load limits and weight distribution recommended for your vehicle
•A significant drop in temperature can cause tire inflation pressures to drop, which may activate the TMPS light Manually confirm tire pressures after significant changes in temperature or altitude
