The direction of the headlamp beam (thedirection which the light shines in) altersaccording to the number of people and theload in the vehicle. Lower the headlamp
angle if it is too high due to the number ofpeople and/or the load in the vehicle so thatthe headlamps’ glare does not distract thedrivers of approaching vehicles. First set thelight switch to the “ ” position, then turnthe headlamp levelling switch knob to lowerthe beam. The greater the number on theheadlamp levelling switch knob, the lowerthe beam will point.Set the switch to the appropriate position sothat the headlamp beam is level with the road.

For economical driving, there are some tech-nical requirements that have to be met. Theprerequisite for low fuel consumption is aproperly adjusted engine. In order to achievelonger life of the vehicle and the most eco-nomical operation, we recommend you tohave the vehicle checked at regular intervalsin accordance with the service standards.Fuel economy and generation of exhaust gasand noise are highly influenced by personaldriving habits as well as the particular operat-ing conditions. The following points shouldbe observed in order to minimize wear ofbrakes, tyres and engine as well as to reduceenvironmental pollution.Av o i d d r i v i n g w h e r e t h e a c c e l e r a t o r p e d a l i spushed way down, such as for unnecessarilysudden starts, acceleration and deceleration.Smoothly depress the accelerator pedal.Observe the speed limit and keep the speed asconstant as possible while driving.
Parking for a long period with the ready indi-cator illuminated will shorten the cruisingrange.At higher the vehicle speed, more drive bat-tery is consumed. Avoid driving at full speed.Even a slight release of the accelerator pedalwill save a significant amount of drive bat-tery.Check the tyre inflation pressures at regularintervals. Low tyre inflation pressureincreases road resistance and fuel consump-tion. In addition, low tyre pressures adverselyaffect tyre wear and driving stability.Do not drive with unnecessary articles in theluggage compartment. Especially during citydriving where frequent starting and stoppingis necessary, the increased weight of the vehi-cle will greatly affect fuel consumption. Also
avoid driving with unnecessary luggage orcarriers, etc., on the roof; the increased airresistance will increase fuel consumption.To o m u c h c o o l i n g / h e a t i n g c a n a ff e c t t h ecruising range, so maintain an appropriatetemperature to extend the cruising range.
E00600200070
Drunk driving is one of the most frequentcauses of accidents.Yo u r d r i v i n g a b i l i t y c a n b e s e r i o u s l y i m p a i r e deven with blood alcohol levels far below thelegal minimum. If you have been drinking,don’t drive. Ride with a designated non-drinking driver, call a cab or a friend, or usepublic transportation. Drinking coffee or tak-ing a cold shower will not make you sober.Similarly, prescription and nonprescriptiondrugs affect your alertness, perception andreaction time. Consult with your doctor orpharmacist before driving while under theinfluence of any of these medications.
