Emissions

Improving Fuel Economy and Reducing CO

Emissions

Achieving fuel economy and reducing CO

emissions is dependent on several

factors, including driving conditions, load weight, idling time, driving habits, and
vehicle condition. Depending on these and other factors, you may not achieve the
rated fuel economy of this vehicle.

You can optimize your fuel economy with proper maintenance of your vehicle.
Follow the maintenance schedule and, if necessary, consult your warranty booklet.
On vehicles without service reminder system, follow the Maintenance schedule.

Safety When Performing Maintenance

Some of the most important safety precautions are given here. However, we cannot
warn you of every conceivable hazard that can arise in performing maintenance.
Only you can decide whether you should perform a given task.

•

To reduce the possibility of fire or explosion, keep cigarettes, sparks, and flames
away from the 12-volt battery, all High Voltage system, and all fuel related parts.

•

Never leave rags, towels, or other flammable objects under the bonnet.

Heat from the engine and exhaust can ignite them, causing a fire.

•

To clean parts, use a commercially available degreaser or parts cleaner, not petrol.

•

Wear eye protection and protective clothing when working with the 12-volt
battery or compressed air.

•

Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, which is poisonous and can kill you.

Only operate the engine if there is sufficient ventilation.
