●
Prevent emergency braking, and
subsequent brake wear, by keeping
an appropriate distance from
vehicles ahead, and paying attention
to trac 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 range can save
power.
3. Reduce load:
●
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 will
add the load of vehicle, increasing
energy consumption.
4. Other tips:
●
Make sure tire pressure is correct.
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.
CAUTION
●
Never coast in "N" while driving.
Carrying Luggage
●
This vehicle has multiple storage
spaces.

accommodation may aect
maneuverability, stability and normal
operation of the vehicle, and reduce its
safety.
●
Make sure the vehicle's total load
(vehicle + passengers + luggage)
remains within the maximum
allowable total mass.
●
Please read the following information
carefully before carrying luggage.
WARNING
●
Overloading and improper
accommodation may aect
stability and vehicle control,
which may lead to accidents.
●
Observe the maximum weight
limit and other loading guidelines
in this manual.
●
Do not carry highly magnetic
items, as they might interfere
in the the vehicle's operating
functions.
Carrying Items in the Passenger Area
●
All items that could be thrown inwards
and thus injure occupants in case of a
