and other conditions, you may or may not achieve the rated fuel economy of this
vehicle.

Maintenance and Fuel Economy

You can optimize your fuel economy with proper maintenance of your vehicle.
Always maintain your vehicle in accordance with the messages displayed on the
multi-information display.

Use the recommended viscosity engine oil, displaying the API Certification Seal.

Maintain the specified tire pressure.

Do not load the vehicle with excess cargo.

Keep your vehicle clean. A buildup of snow or mud on your vehicle's underside

adds weight and increases wind resistance.
