• An incorrectly anchored tether strap could
lead to increased head motion and possible
injury to the child. Use only the anchorage

seat, make sure the tether strap does not
slip into the opening between the seat-
backs as you remove slack in the strap.

ENGINE BREAK-IN
RECOMMENDATIONS
The following tips will be helpful in obtaining
optimum performance and maximum durability
for your new SRT Vehicle.
Despite modern technology and World Class
manufacturing methods, the moving parts of the
vehicle must still wear in with each other. This
wearing in occurs mainly during the first
500 miles (805 km) and continues through the
first oil change interval.
It is recommended for the operator to observe
the following driving behaviors during the new
vehicle break-in period:
0 to 100 miles (0 to 161 km):
• Do not allow the engine to operate at idle for
an extended period of time.
• Depress the accelerator pedal slowly and not
more than halfway to
acceleration.
• Avoid aggressive braking.
• Drive with the engine speed less than
3,500 RPM.
• Maintain vehicle speed below 55 mph
(88 km/h) and observe local speed limits.
100 to 300 miles (161 to 483 km):
• Depress the accelerator pedal slowly and not
more than halfway to avoid rapid acceleration
in lower gears (1st to 3rd gears).
• Avoid aggressive braking.
• Drive with the engine speed less than
5,000 RPM.
• Maintain vehicle speed below 70 mph
(112 km/h) and observe local speed limits.
300 to 500 miles (483 to 805 km):
• Exercise the full engine rpm range, shifting
manually at higher rpms when possible.
• Do not perform sustained operation with the
accelerator pedal at wide open throttle.
• Maintain vehicle speed below 85 mph
(136 km/h) and observe local speed limits.
For the first 1500 miles (2414 km):
• Do not participate in track events, sport driv-
ing schools, or similar activities during the
first 1500 miles (2414 km).
NOTE:
avoid rapid
Check engine oil with every refueling and add if
necessary. Oil and fuel consumption may be
higher through the first oil change interval. Run-
ning the engine with an oil level below the add
mark can cause severe engine damage.
