• Turn the ignition off before fueling; an

inaccurate reading results if the engine

is left running.

• Use the same fill rate

(low-medium-high) each time the tank

is filled.

• Allow no more than two automatic

click-offs when filling.

Results are most accurate when the filling

method is consistent.

Calculating Fuel Economy

Do not measure fuel economy during the

first 1000 miles (1600 kilometers) of

driving (this is your engine’s break-in

period); a more accurate measurement is

obtained after 2000 miles - 3000 miles

(3200 kilometers - 4800 kilometers). Also,

fuel expense, frequency of fill ups or fuel

gauge readings are not accurate ways to

measure fuel economy.

1. Fill the fuel tank completely and record

the initial odometer reading.

2. Each time you fill the tank, record the

amount of fuel added.

3. After at least 3 to 5 tank fill ups, fill the

fuel tank and record the current

odometer reading.

4. Subtract your initial odometer reading

from the current odometer reading.

5. Calculate fuel economy by dividing

miles traveled by gallons used (For

Metric: Multiply liters used by 100, then

divide by kilometers traveled).

Keep a record for at least 1 month and

record the type of driving (city or highway).

This provides an accurate estimate of the

vehicle’s fuel economy under current

driving conditions. Additionally, keeping

records during summer and winter show

how temperature impacts fuel economy.

In general, lower temperatures mean lower

fuel economy.

Conditions

• Heavily loading a vehicle or towing a

trailer may reduce fuel economy at any

speed.

• Carrying unnecessary weight may

reduce fuel economy (approximately

1 mpg [0.4 km/L] is lost for every 400

pounds [180 kilograms] of weight

carried).

• Adding certain accessories to your

vehicle (for example bug deflectors,

rollbars/light bars, running boards, ski

racks) may reduce fuel economy.

• Using fuel blended with alcohol may

lower fuel economy.

• Fuel economy may decrease with lower

temperatures during the first 8–10

miles (12–16 kilometers) of driving.

• Driving on flat terrain offers improved

fuel economy as compared to driving

on hilly terrain.

• Transmissions give their best fuel

economy when operated in the top

cruise gear and with steady pressure

on the gas pedal.

• Close windows for high speed driving.

EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM

WARNINGS

Do not park, idle, or drive your vehicle

in dry grass or other dry ground cover.

The emission system heats up the

engine compartment and exhaust system,

which can start a fire.

Exhaust leaks may result in entry of

harmful and potentially lethal fumes

into the passenger compartment. If

you smell exhaust fumes inside your

vehicle, have your dealer inspect your

vehicle immediately. Do not drive if you

smell exhaust fumes.
