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.)
