Saving Energy and
E
xtending Vehicle Service
Life
●
Saving energy is simple and easy, and
it helps prolong the vehicle's service
life.
●
Energy and repair cost saving
precautions:
1. Regenerative braking setting:
●
This vehicle can regenerate energy
and the regenerating degree can
be set by Infotainment touchscreen
→ Vehicle Settings → Energy
manag
ement. When regenerative
braking is set to high, energy recovery
increases when braking and coasting.
Set this feature according to your
driving habits.
2. Maintaining constant speed:
●
Constant speeds save energy.
Sudden acceleration, sharp turns
and emergency braking increase
consumption.
●
Speeds should be kept constant
according to tra󽗋c conditions.
Additional energy is consumed each
time the accelerator is pushed.
●
Acceleration should be gradual. Avoid
sudden startup, acceleration, or
deceleration.
●
Prevent emergency braking and
subsequent brake wear by keeping
an appropriate distance from vehicles
ahead and paying attention to tra󽗋c
lights.
●
Congested roads increase energy
consumption.
●
Keep moderate speeds in motorways.
The higher the speed, the higher
the consumption. Maintaining vehicle
speed within the economical speed
r
ange can save power.
3. Reduce load:
●
Energy consumption is higher when air
conditioning is used. Turn o󽗈 the A/C
to reduce power consumption. When
outside temperatures are moderate,
use fresh air mode.
●
Do not overload the vehicle
unnecessarily. Excessive weights add
the load of vehicle, increasing energy
consumption.
4. Other tips:
●
Ensure tires are properly in󽗊ated.
Low tire pressure increases energy
consumption and wear.
●
Keep front wheels properly aligned,
avoid driving into curbstones, and
drive slowly in rough terrain.
Misalignment of the front wheels not
only increases tire wear, but also
increases load on the powertrain and
power consumption.
●
Keep the bottom of the vehicle clean
and mud free. This reduces vehicle
weight and prevents corrosion.
WARNING
●
Do no
t coast in neutral gear.
Carrying Luggage
●
This v
ehicle has multiple storage
spaces that allow you to
conveniently keep items. Overloading
or improper accommodation may
a󽗈ect maneuverability, stability and
normal operation of the vehicle, and
reduce its safety.
●
The glove box, storage boxes on
interior trim panels and 󽗉le pockets on
seat backs are designed for small and
