# General Driving Tips

|
# Think ahead when driving
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Repeated acceleration and braking will increase fuel consumption. Keeping a close eye on the traffic can help to avoid frequent acceleration and braking. Keeping your vehicle at a sufficient distance from the vehicle in front can help you to think ahead when driving.

|
# Avoid full throttle
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The rolling and air resistance increase at excessively high speeds. This in turn increases the force needed to move the vehicle. Never drive the vehicle at top speed.
|

|

|
# Observe the correct tyre pressures
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
An inadequate tyre pressure does not just mean greater wear, but also increases the rolling resistance of the tyres and thus the fuel consumption. Use tyres with optimised rolling resistance.Adjust
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Adjust the tyre pressure according to the vehicle load:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Observe the information on the tyre pressure sticker.

# WARNING
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Driving at high speed and without a sufficient safety distance can lead to accidents and serious or fatal injuries.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Adapt your speed and distance from the vehicles ahead to suit visibility, weather, road and traffic conditions.
