New Vehicle "Break-In"
Ignition Positions
NOTICE:
Your modern Chevrolet doesn't need an
elaborate "break-in." But it will perform better
in the long run if you follow these guidelines:
0
0
0
Don't drive
at
any one speed
--
fast or
slow
--
for the first 500 miles (805 km).
Don't make full-throttle starts.
Avoid making hard stops for the first
200 miles (322 km) or so. During this time
your new brake linings aren't yet broken
in. Hard stops with new linings can mean
premature wear and earlier replacement.
Follow this breaking-in guideline every
time you get new brake linings.
Don't tow
a
trailer during break-in.
See "Towing a Trailer" in the Index for
more information.

With the ignition key in the ignition switch, you can turn
the switch to five positions:
ACCESSORY (A): This is an on position in which you
can operate your electrical power accessories. Press in
the ignition switch as you turn the top of
it
toward you.
LOCK (B): This is the only position in which you can
remove the key. This locks your steering wheel, ignition
and transaxle.
