Break-In Period - BOMBARDIER Outlander 400 Operator's Manual

BREAK-IN PERIOD

Engine
A break-in period of 10 operating hours
is required before running the vehicle
at sustained full throttle.
CAUTION: Never mix oil with fuel.
This vehicle has a 4-stroke engine.
Oil must be added to engine base
only.
During this period, maximum throttle
should not exceed 3/4. However, brief
full acceleration and speed variations
contribute to a good break-in. Contin-
ued wide open throttle accelerations,
prolonged cruising speeds and engine
overheating are detrimental during the
break-in period.
While reading this Operator's Guide, remember that:
Indicates a potential hazard that, if not avoided, could result in serious in-
jury or death.

10-Hour Inspection
NOTE: The 10-hour inspection is at the
expense of the vehicle owner.

chanical equipment,

(185 m.) or 30 days after the pur-
chase, whichever comes first, your
vehicle be inspected by an authorized
