Save fuel, protect the environment88Save fuel, protect theenvironmentTrend-setting technologyWhen developing and manufacturing yourvehicle, Vauxhall used environment-friendly and in the main recyclablematerials. The production methods used tomake your vehicle are likewiseenvironmentally-compatible.Recycling of production wastes keeps thecirculation of material closed. Reduction ofenergy and water requirements also helpsto conserve natural resources.A highly advanced design means that yourvehicle can be easily disassembled at theend of its working life, and the individualmaterials separated for subsequent re-use.Materials such as asbestos and cadmiumare not used. The refrigerant in the airconditioning system 3 is CFC-free.New painting techniques employ water asa solvent.End-of-life vehicle recoveryFor detailed information on Vauxhall’son-going commitment to achieving anenvironmentally sustainable future,including; design for recycling, take back ofEnd-of-Life Vehicle’s (ELVs) and therecycling of ELVs, viewwww.vauxhall.co.uk/recycling for details.Drive in an energy andenvironment-conscious wayz High fuel consumption, noise levels andexhaust emission are often caused by adriving style that is not energy andenvironment-conscious.z You should therefore drive with energy inmind: "more miles with less fuel".Reduce the noise level and exhaustemissions by adopting an environment-conscious driving style. This is extremelyworthwhile and improves the quality oflife.Fuel consumption depends to a greatextent on your own personal driving style.The following hints are intended to helpyou consume fuel at a rate that is as closeas possible to the specified levels.Check your vehicle’s fuel consumptionevery time you refuel. This facilitates earlydetection of any irregularities causingincreased fuel consumption.Warming upz Full throttle and warming up at idlespeed increase wear, fuel consumption,fuel emission, the amount of pollutant inthe exhaust and the amount of noise.z Drive off immediately after starting.Warm up the engine by running it atmoderate engine speeds.Uniform speedz Hectic driving significantly increases fuelconsumption, the quantity of emissionand the proportion of pollutant in theexhaust.z Do not accelerate and brakeunnecessarily. Drive at uniform speed.Avoid frequent starting-off and stoppinge.g. at traffic lights, in short distancetraffic and in queues of traffic by meansof clever planning. Select roads withgood traffic flow.Idlingz The engine also consumes fuel whenidling.z If you have to wait for more than oneminute, it is worthwhile switching off theengine. Five minutes of idlingcorresponds to approx. 0.6 miles (1 km)of driving.Ofrecido por www.electromanuales.com PreviousNext |
