● Avoid engine running idle for a long
time. If the car must be stopped for
long period, you had better shut
down the engine.
● Avoid engine lug-down or
overspeed. Select appropriate gear
according to road surface
conditions.
● Avoid unnecessary alternative
acceleration and deceleration,
which will waste of fuel.
● Avoid unnecessary stopping or
braking. In driving, if you keep a
steady vehicle speed while taking
traffic signaling lights into
consideration, you can stop your
car for fewer times; and if possible,
take a road without traffic lights.
Keep proper interval with the
vehicle in front of you to avoid hard
braking, which is also helpful to
reduce brake wear.
● Avoid driving in traffic peak hours or
traffic jam region.
● Do not rest your feet on clutch pedal
or brake pedal. It will cause
excessive wear, overheating and
higher fuel consumption.
● Keep proper speed on expressway.
The higher speed, the larger fuel
consumption. Slower speed can
save fuel.
● Keep Front Wheels in Proper
Alignment Do not impact on
curbstone, and slow down the
speed on rugged road. Bad
alignment of front wheels may
cause excessive wear of tires, and
also increase engine load and fuel
consumption.
● Keep the chassis clean and free of
mud and similar materials. It helps
to reduce vehicle weight and
prevent corrosion.
● Adjust and Keep Vehicle at Best
Performance Dirty air filter, spark plug,
engine oil and lubricant, improper
throttle clearance, badly adjusted
brake, etc. may have bad effect on
engine performance and increase fuel
consumption. To extend service life of
all parts and reduce operating
expense, regular maintenance is
required. When driving under poor
conditions, such as bad weather,
maintenance to the car shall be more
frequent (Refer to Chapter 6).
