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.
Four-wheel-drive operation (if equipped)
is less fuel efficient than two-wheel-drive
operation.
Close the windows for high-speed
driving.
DRIVING THROUGH WATER
WARNING
Do not drive through flowing or deep
water as you may lose control of your
vehicle.
Note: Driving through standing water can
cause vehicle damage.
Note: Engine damage can occur if water
enters the air filter.
Before driving through standing water, check
the depth. Never drive through water that is
higher than the bottom of the front rocker
area of your vehicle.
E259345
When driving through standing water, drive
very slowly and do not stop your vehicle.
Your brake performance and traction may
be limited. After driving through water and
as soon as it is safe to do so:
Lightly press the brake pedal to dry the
brakes and to check that they work.
Check that the horn works.
Check that the exterior lights work.
Turn the steering wheel to check that the
steering power assist works.
FLOOR MATS
WARNINGS
Use a floor mat designed to fit the
footwell of your vehicle that does not
obstruct the pedal area. Failure to follow this
instruction could result in the loss of control
of your vehicle, personal injury or death.
Pedals that cannot move freely can
cause loss of vehicle control and
increase the risk of serious personal injury.
Secure the floor mat to both retention
devices so that it cannot slip out of
position and interfere with the pedals. Failure
to follow this instruction could result in the
loss of control of your vehicle, personal injury
or death.
