Starting and driving

8. Buy an automated pass for toll roads.

.

Automated passes permit drivers to use

special lanes to maintain cruising speed
through the toll and avoid stopping and
starting.

9. Winter warm up.

.

Limit idling time to minimize impact to

fuel economy.

.

Vehicles typically need no more than 30

seconds of idling at start-up to effectively
circulate the engine oil before driving.

.

Your vehicle will reach its ideal operating

temperature more quickly while driving
versus idling.

10. Keeping your vehicle cool.

.

Park your vehicle in a covered parking

area or in the shade whenever possible.

.

When entering a hot vehicle, opening the

windows will help to reduce the inside
temperature faster, resulting in reduced
demand on your A/C system.

. Keep your engine tuned up.
. Follow the recommended scheduled main-

tenance.

. Keep the tires inflated to the correct

pressure. Low tire pressure increases tire
wear and lowers fuel economy.

. Keep the wheels in correct alignment.

Improper alignment increases tire wear and
lowers fuel economy.

. Use the recommended viscosity engine oil.
