Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Run  your  engine only as long as you must.  This saves 
fuel. When  you  run  the engine,  make it  go a little faster 
than  just idle.  That  is, push the accelerator slightly.  This 
uses less fuel for the heat that  you get and 
it keeps  the 
battery charged.  You will  need 
a well-charged  battery  to 
restart the vehicle, and possibly  for signaling later 
on 
with  your headlamps.  Let the heater run for awhile. 
Then,  shut  the engine  off and  close  the window almost 
all the  way to preserve the heat. Start the  engine again 
and repeat this only when  you feel really uncomfortable 
from  the cold.  But 
do it as little as possible.  Preserve the 
fuel as long as  you can.  To help  keep  warm,  you can get 
out  of the vehicle  and  do  some  fairly vigorous exercises 
every  half hour  or 
so until help  comes.

may properly carry.  The Tire-Loading  Information label 
is inside the  trunk lid. The  label tells  you  the proper size, 
speed rating  and recommended inflation pressures for 
the tires on your vehicle.  It also gives  you important 
information about the number 
of people  that can be  in 
your vehicle  and  the total weight 
you can carry.  This 
includes the  weight 
of all occupants,  cargo and all 
nonfactory-installed  options.
