Avoid high engine speeds
Use 1st gear to get the vehicle in motion. Beginning with 2nd gear, accelerate rapidly. When accelerating, shift up before reaching high engine speeds.
When you reach the desired speed, shift into the highest applicable gear and drive with the engine speed as low as possible and at a constant speed.
As a rule: driving at low engine speeds lowers fuel consumption and reduces wear.
The gear shift indicator of your vehicle indicates the most fuel efficient gear.
