INFLUENCE OF DRIVING TECHNIQUES ON RUNNING
COSTS
The manner in which a car is driven affects its running costs,
particularly as far as fuel, oil, and tyre expenses are concerned.
Running costs increase notably with:
-speed,
-frequent and prolonged use of low gears,
-accelerating and braking too often or too fiercely,
unnecessary use of the accelerator pedal,
-leaving the choke out,
-taking bends at high speeds,
-tyre inflated to incorrect pressures.
Oil consumption, which varies a great deal with the use of the car,
is also influenced when running in the engine, and you are advised
to pay particular attention to this point as well as to the oil change
section in the Maintenance Guide.
TOWING A TRAILER
If you intend to tow a caravan or trailer, consult your Citroën deale\
r
first, who will give you all the necessary advice, especially in so far \
as the legal requirements are concerned.
The maximum towing weights are, in France:
- Trailer without brake: 270 kg (595 lbs)
- Trailer with overrun brake: 400 kg (881 lbs)
