· The car uses Gas 95 which is available at all fueling
stations.
· Gas 95 pumps have green labels and sometimes say
Benzin.
· Do not make the mistake of putting diesel in the car.
Diesel pumps have black labels.
· If you are paying cash, you pump the fuel first, then
go inside and pay.
· The car has two trip clocks (Trip A and Trip B) which
you can use to track your mileage.
· Just above the steering column and below the small
digital dashboard there are two buttons. When you press the one on the left is
cycles through five displays. The odometer, Trip A, Trip B, and two fuel
efficiency displays.
· One fuel efficiency display notes how many liters the
car consumes in order to go 100 kilometers. The teacher care uses approximately
5.3 liters per hundred kilometers. This means you should replace a liter of
fuel in the car for every 20 kilometers you drive.
o
The actual fuel
consumption is closer to 18.5 kilometers per liter so round up occasionally.
· Press the left display button until you see either
Trip A or Trip B. Then hold that button down to reset Trip A or Trip B to zero.
You can now track how far you have driven and you will know how much fuel to
put in before you return the car to the school.
· The current price for Gas 95 is about 1.38 Euros per
liter so a 60-kilometer drive will cost you three liters or approximately 4 –
4.20 euros.
· Also, you may not see the fuel gauge adjust
immediately after adding fuel. It will adjust after you have driven for a bit
and you restart the car.
· Petrol stations in Slovakia are set up for one-way
traffic. Basically, if you pull into the station on your right side you are
meant to enter the station in the direction of travel. If you enter a station
by turning left make sure you choose the correct entrance.
· The gas gauge in the Citron doesn’t always update
immediately after you add petrol. Usually you need to drive for a while and
restart the car once before you will see a change.
