Tire pressure and fuel consumption are inversely proportional—higher tire pressure leads to lower fuel consumption. However, as tire pressure decreases, the rate of increase in fuel consumption becomes more gradual. In practical experience, a range of 2.4-2.6 Bar is optimal. Fuel efficiency still largely depends on individual driving habits. 1. If the car is fully occupied (5 people), adjusting the tire pressure to around 2.5 Bar is advisable; for two passengers, a tire pressure of 2.3 Bar is also normal. 2. Standard tire pressure can usually be found in the following locations: 3. The vehicle's user manual, the label near the driver's door (B-pillar), the drawer next to the driver's seat, or the fuel tank cap door.

How to Turn Off the Wiper on Volkswagen Polo?

On the wiper control, there is a knob for controlling the rear wiper. Twist the head of the control button and gently lift it upwards to turn it off. Wiper Maintenance Guide: 1. When using the wiper to remove dust from the windshield on sunny days, always spray windshield washer fluid and avoid dry wiping. 2. For stubborn or hard debris on the glass, clean it manually. These substances can easily damage the wiper blades, leading to ineffective wiping. 3. When lifting the wiper blades during car washing or routine cleaning, hold the "backbone" of the wiper blade and gently return it to its position. Do not let the wiper blade snap back forcefully. 4. During winter use, first use an ice scraper to remove ice particles from the windshield to avoid putting extra strain on the wiper.
