Overall power usage:
Keep an eye on the power meter
gauge, and try to drive within the 30 percent power range (blue ECO range).Starting from stop:

Everyday driving:
Refrain from heavy acceleration or
braking abruptly. Avoid idling whenever possible.Charging the battery:
Brake early and steadily with short
pedal movements. Let the vehicle coast to a stop.
*See back cover for mpg information.1Driving More Efficiently: Drive Sensibly, www.fueleconomy.gov
Driving on highways and expressways:
Coast as
often as possible when conditions allow. When driving at higher speeds, increased wind resistance reduces fuel economy.Cold weather and frequent short trips:
The engine
does not operate efficiently until it is warmed up. Differences in terrain:
Hilly, mountainous, or unpaved
roads reduce fuel economy.NOTE: When using the AC, set the temperature to 72
o F and press the
AUTO button for greater fuel efficiency.
