Item 7, 8, 9, 10, 11: at kerb weight
*: 2WD vehicles with 15 inch tyres

NOTE
l The values under item 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 are ap-
plicable to unladen vehicles. These values
can also be varied depending on the tyre size,
optional equipment and suspension condi-
tions.Operating hints
l Do not let the clutch slip (vehicles with a M/
a only) and do not increase the engine speed
more than necessary when starting.
l Be sure that the driving speed does not ex-
ceed the maximum speed for trailer operation.
l To prevent shocks from the overrun brake, de-
press the brake pedal lightly at first and then
more strongly.l To make full use of engine braking, change
to a lower gear before descending a slope.
l The body, brakes, clutch, and chassis will be
under additional strain when towing a trailer.
l The heavier weight and higher rolling and air
resistance will increase fuel consumption.

Additional precautions for vehicles equipped with
an automatic transmission
The 2 nd
gear (in “Sports mode”) is recommended
on slopes or at low speed. Use the 1 st
gear (in
“Sports mode”) in mountainous areas in order to
make better use of engine braking and to assist the
brake system. However, be sure that the speed does
not exceed the maximum speed limit for the selec-
ted gear.
