Increasing fuel economy
• Keep your engine tuned up.
• Follow the recommended scheduled
maintenance.
• Keep the tires inflated to the correct
pressure. Low tire pressure increases tire
wear and lowers fuel economy.
• Keep the wheels in correct alignment.
Improper alignment increases tire wear and
lowers fuel economy.
• Use the recommended viscosity engine oil.
(See “Engine oil and oil filter recommendation” in the “9. Technical and consumer information” section.)
