New Vehicle "Break-In" - Oldsmobile 1998 Intrigue Owner's Manual

During normal operation, the SECURITY light will go
off after the engine is started.
If the engine stalls and the SECURITY light flashes,
wait until the light stops flashing before trying to restart
the engine. Remember to release the key from the
START position as soon as the engine starts.
If you are driving and the SECURITY light comes on,
you will be able to restart the engine if you turn the
engine off. However, your Passlock system is not
working properly and must be serviced by your retailer.
Your vehicle is not protected by Passlock at this time.
You may also want to check the fuse (see "Fuses and
Circuit Breakers" in the Index). See your retailer
for service.
If the SECURITY light comes on while the engine is
running, a problem has been detected and the system
may need service. See your retailer for service.
In an emergency, call the Oldsmobile Roadside
Assistance Center at 1-800-442-OLDS (6537).
New Vehicle "Break-In"
NOTICE:
Your vehicle doesn't need an elaborate
"break-in." But it will perform better in the
long run if you follow these guidelines:
Don't drive at any one speed
--
fast or
slow
--
for the first
500
miles
(805
km).
Don't make full-throttle starts.
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.
Avoid making hard stops for the first
2-15
