Your modern Pontiac 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 (804
km).
Don't make full-
throttle
starts.
Avoid making hard stops for the
first 200 miles (322
km)

linings aren't yet broken in. Hard
stops with new linings can mean
premature wear and earlier
replacement. Follow this
"breaking-in" guideline every
I I
time you get new brake linings.
