Engine rpm
Under all driving conditions, drive in a
favourable engine speed rang e.
Warming up
Allow engine to warm up whilst driving. Do
not warm it up by letting it run at idling
speed. Do not apply full throttle until
engine reaches operating temperature.
After a cold start, automatic
transmission 3 does not shift into higher
gears until higher e ngine speeds have been
reached. This allows the catalytic converter
to quickly reach the temperature required
for optimum pollutant reduction.
Correct gear selection
Do not race your eng ine whils t in n e utral or
with a low gear selected. Driving too fast in
individual gears or drive ranges as well as
stop-and -go traffic increase engine wear
and fuel consumption.
Cha nge down
When decreasing speed, shift down into
the next lowest gear. Do not slip the clutch
with a high-revving engine. This is
especially important when hill climbing.
Clutch operation 3
Always depress the clutch pedal hard to
the floor to prevent shifting difficulties and
tra nsmission dam age. There must b e no
mats in the area of the pedals.
When driving, do not use the pedal as a
footrest; this will cause substantial clutch
wear.
Pedals
Do not place any objects in the footwell
which could slip under the pedals and
inhibit the pedal travel.
To ensure the pedal travel is uninhibited,
there must be no mats in the area of the
pedals.
Whilst driving, do not use the brake pedal
as a footrest; this will cause substantial
wear to brake components and cause
overheating, resulting in longer braking
distances.
Battery care whilst driving
When driving slowly or when the vehicle is
stationary, e.g. in slow urban traffic,
stop-and-go traffic or traffic jams, turn off
all unnecessary electrical loads where
possible (e.g. heated rear window,
auxiliary headlights).
When starting the engine, depress the
clutch pedal so that transmission
resistance is eliminated and the starter
motor and battery are relieved.
