THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE 53

Engine Oil Consumption
When the engine has passed the break-in period, oil
consumption may reach 0.5 % of the fuel consumption
recorded in actual operating circumstances. In isolated
cases and in arduous operating conditions, oil
consumption may increase to 1 % of the fuel
consumption recorded in actual operating
circumstances.
Engine oil consumption depends on the driving style
adopted and the operating conditions. It can only be
judged after the engine has passed the break-in period.
SAFETY TIPS
• Check the vehicle’s lights and the general condition
of the vehicle before each trip.
• Keep tires at the recommended tire inflation
pressure.
• All occupants should fasten their seat belts before
each trip.
• Driving in an environmentally responsible manner
will reduce noise, fuel consumption and exhaust
emissions.
• Allow the engine to warm up under low load use.
• Avoid unnecessarily hard acceleration, driving with
the throttle fully open, and carrying loads not
specifically needed on the journey.
• Stop the engine during lengthy waiting periods, for
example at traffic lights.
• Remove ancillary parts, such as wind deflectors and
roof racks, as soon as they are no longer needed.
