Drive sensibly – save fuel
Fuel consumption, to a great extent, de-
pends on driving habits and operating con-
ditions.
To save fuel you should:
ț Keep tires at the recommended infla-
tion pressures
ț Remove unnecessary loads
ț Allow engine to warm up under low
load use
ț Avoid frequent acceleration and decel-
eration
ț Have all maintenance work performed
at regular intervals by an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Light Truck Center
Fuel consumption is also increased by driv-
ing in cold weather, in stop-and-go traffic,
on short trips and in hilly country.
Drinking and driving Pedals

cident is sharply increased when you drink

anyone to drive after drinking or taking
drugs.
