FUEL CONSUMPTION
The following will help to improve fuel
consumption.
Tyre Pressures
Check your tyre pressures regularly.
Gear Shifting
Use the highest gear appropriate for the
road conditions.
Anticipation
Adjust your vehicle speed and the distance
to other vehicles without the need for heavy
braking or acceleration.
Efficient Speed
Higher speeds use more fuel. Reduce your
cruising speed on open roads.
ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE
The electric parking brake (EPB) replaces
the conventional handbrake. It is operated
by a switch located in the centre console.
Manual release
Note: To release the EPB, the ignition must
be in position II.
Hold the brake pedal depressed and press
down the switch.
Automatic release - Drive away
release (DAR)
Note: On vehicles with automatic
transmission, the driver's door must be
closed and the driver's seatbelt must be
fastened before the DAR will operate.
Note: On vehicles with manual transmission,
if the gear lever is in neutral when you release
the clutch pedal and depress the accelerator
pedal, the EPB will be released
automatically.
Note: The clutch pedal must be fully
depressed before the DAR will operate.
Engage first or reverse gear, move off as
normal using the accelerator and clutch
pedals and the EPB will be automatically
released.
PARKING AID
Switching the parking aid on and
off
Note: The parking aid switches off
automatically when you start the engine or
when you exceed 16 km/h (10 mph).
Note: The front and rear sensors are always
activated or deactivated together.
The parking aid is per default off. To switch
the parking aid on, press the switch in the
instrument panel or select reverse gear.
The light in the switch illuminates when the
parking aid is activated.
To turn it off, press the switch again.
