Run your engine only as long as you must. This saves fuel. W\
hen you run
the engine, make it go a little faster than just idle. That is, push the\

accelerator slightly. This uses less fuel for the heat that yo\
u get and it keeps
the battery charged. You will need
a well-charged battery to restart the vehi-
cle, and possibly for signaling later on with your headlights. Let the heater
run for awhile. Then, shut the engine
off and close the window almost all the
way
to preserve the heat. Start the engine again and repeat this only\
when
you feel really uncomfortable from the cold. But
do it as little as possible.
Preserve the fuel as long as you can.
To help keep warm, you can get out
of the vehicle and
do some fairly vigorous exercises every half hour or so
until help comes.
