Driving

ing type. The following section gives you some

tips on lessening the impact on the environment

and reducing your operating costs at the same

time.

Active cylinder management (ACT®)

Depending on vehicle equipment, the active

cylinder management (ACT®) may deactivate

some of the engine cylinders if the driving sit-

uation does not require too much power. The

number of active cylinders can be seen on the

instrument panel display ›››page16.

Foresight when driving

If you think ahead when driving, you will need

to brake less and thus accelerate less. Take ad-

vantage of the inertia of the vehicle whenever

possible, with a gear engaged. This takes ad-

vantage of the engine braking eect, reducing

wear on the brakes and tyres. Emissions and

fuel consumption will drop to zero.

Changing gear to save energy

An eective way of saving is to change in ad-

vance to a higher gear.

Manual gearbox: change from ﬁrst to second

gear as soon as possible. Choosing the cor-

rect gear saves fuel. Select the highest possi-

ble gear suitable for the driving situation (the

engine should continue to run with cyclical reg-

ularity).

Automatic transmission: accelerate gradually

and without reaching the “kick-down” position.

Avoid driving at high speed

Avoid travelling at your vehicle’s top speed,

whenever possible. Fuel consumption, emission

of harmful gases and noise pollution multiply as

speed is increased. Driving at moderate speeds

will help to save fuel.

Reduce idling time

In vehicles with the Start-Stop system idling is

automatically reduced. In vehicles without the

Start-Stop system it is worth switching o the

engine, for example, at level crossings and at

trac lights that remain red for long periods of

time. When an engine has reached operating

temperature, and depending on the cylinder

capacity, keeping it switched o for a minimum

of about 5 seconds already saves more than

the amount of fuel necessary for restarting.

The engine takes a long time to warm up when

it is idling. Mechanical wear and pollutant emis-

sions are also especially high during this initial

warm-up phase. It is therefore best to drive

o immediately after starting the engine. Avoid

running the engine at high speed.

Regular maintenance

Regular servicing helps in saving fuel even be-

fore the engine is started. A well-serviced en-

gine gives you the beneﬁt of improved fuel

eciency as well as maximum reliability and

an enhanced resale value. A badly serviced en-

gine can consume up to 10% more fuel than

necessary.

Avoid short journeys

The engine and catalytic converter need to

reach their optimal operating temperature in

order to minimise fuel consumption and emis-

sions.

A cold engine consumes a disproportionate

amount of fuel. The engine reaches its work-

ing temperature after about four kilometres (2.5

miles), when fuel consumption will return to a

normal level.

Check tyre pressure

Always make sure the tyres are inﬂated to the

correct pressures ›››page286 to save fuel. If

the pressure is below half bar, fuel consumption

may increase by 5%. Due to the greater rolling

resistance, under-inﬂation also increases tyre

wear and impairs handling.

Do not use winter tyres all year round as they

increase fuel consumption by up to 10%.

Avoid carrying unnecessary loads

Given that every kilo of extra weight will in-

crease the fuel consumption, it is advisable

make sure that no unnecessary loads are being

transported.
