Transporting Pets
Air Bags deploying in the front seat
could harm your pet. An unrestrained
pet could be thrown about and possi-
bly injured, or injure a passenger dur-
ing panic braking or in a collision.
Pets should be restrained in the rear
seat in pet harnesses or pet carriers
that are secured by seat belts.
ENGINE BREAK-IN
RECOMMENDATIONS
A long break-in period is not required
for the engine and drivetrain (trans-
mission and axle) in your vehicle.
Drive moderately during the first
500 km. After the initial 100 km,
speeds up to 80 or 90 km/h are desir-
able.
While cruising, brief full-throttle ac-
celeration within the limits of local
traffic laws contributes to a good
break-in. Wide-open throttle accel-
eration in low gear can be detrimental
and should be avoided.

The engine oil installed in the engine
at the factory is a high-quality energy
conserving
type
lubricant.
changes should be consistent with an-
ticipated climate conditions under
which vehicle operations will occur.
For the recommended viscosity and
quality grades, refer to "Maintenance
Procedures" in "Maintaining Your Ve-
hicle".
NON-DETERGENT
STRAIGHT MINERAL OILS MUST
NEVER BE USED.
A new engine may consume some oil
during its first few thousand kilome-
ters of operation. This should be con-
sidered a normal part of the break-in
and not interpreted as an indication of
difficulty.
ADDITIONAL
REQUIREMENTS FOR
DIESEL ENGINE
During the first 1500 km avoid heavy
loads, e.g. driving at full throttle. Do
not exceed 2/3 of the maximum per-
missible engine speed for each gear.
Change gear in good time. Do not shift
down a gear manually in order to
brake.

OR
• Do not leave children or animals
inside parked vehicles in hot
weather. Interior heat build-up
may cause serious injury or
death.
• It is extremely dangerous to ride
in a cargo area, inside or outside
of a vehicle. In a collision, people
riding in these areas are more
likely to be seriously injured or
killed.
• Do not allow people to ride in any
area of your vehicle that is not
equipped with seats and seat
belts.
