Tips for reducing fuel consumption
Fuel consumption mainly depends on
driving style The following advice can
serve to reduce fuel consumption:
• • Change gears rapidly and avoid
revving the engine too much when
accelerating.
• Do not accelerate the engine while
changing up a gear ad avoid high
revs when there is no charge on the
engine.
• • Switch off the engine instead of
leaving it to idle over for long periods
of time, (e.g., in trafic jams, at
trafic lights or at level crossings
