Studies show that instruction manuals are rarely read, and Volvo CE often finds the manual in the bookshelf at the office at customer visits. The instruction books are thus far from the users. How will information reach users? In this study I have worked with Volvo CE, Eskilstuna based on the question "How can information about how best driving economy be achieved and be designed to motivate drivers of wheel loaders to drive fuel efficiently?". Based on literature studies, interviews, analyzes and hearings, a prototype with accompanying concepts has been developed for Volvo CE for continued development. The prototype consists of a design where three factors that affect fuel efficient driving have been selected and constructed. The elements are text and image-based and then placed in an ECO OPERATOR program in the Volvo CE Co-pilot. Volvo CE already works with information via Co-pilot, which is a display located in the wheel loaders cab. Conclusions are that human centered design where the user is put in focus can be used to generate fuel efficient driving information adapted for wheel loaders.
