Warning

Things inside the vehicle can
strike and injure people in a
sudden stop or turn, or in a

New Vehicle Break-In

Caution

The vehicle does not need an
elaborate break-in. But it will
perform better in the long run if
you follow these guidelines:

.

Do not drive at any one
constant speed, fast or slow,
for the first 800 km (500 mi).
Do not make full-throttle
starts. Avoid downshifting to
brake or slow the vehicle.

.

Avoid making hard stops for
the first 300 km (200 mi) or
so. During this time the new
brake linings are not yet
broken in. Hard stops with
new linings can mean
premature wear and earlier
replacement. Follow this
