Maintain a safe distance between vehicles, use

If your vehicle has cruise control, make use of

Before moving off, if the passenger
ompartment is too warm, ventilate it
opening the windows and air vents before using
the air conditioning.
Above 30 mph (50 km/h), close the windows
and leave the air vents open.
Remember to make use of equipment that can
help keep the temperature in the passenger
ompartment down (sunroof and window
linds...).
Switch off the air conditioning, unless it has
automatic digital regulation, as soon as the
desired temperature is attained.
Switch off the demisting and defrostin
