ENGINE BREAK-IN RECOMMENDATIONS
This breaking 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.
Press the accelerator pedal slowly and not more
than halfway to avoid rapid acceleration.
Avoid aggressive braking.
Drive with the engine speed below 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):
Press the accelerator pedal slowly and not more
than halfway to avoid rapid acceleration in lower
gears (FIRST to THIRD gears).

STARTING AND OPERATING

Avoid aggressive braking.
Drive with the engine speed below 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 (paddles or gear shift) 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 1,500 miles (2,414 km):
Do not participate in track events, sport driving
schools, or similar activities.
NOTE:
Check engine oil with every refueling and add if
necessary. Oil and fuel consumption may be higher
through the first oil change interval. Running the
engine with an oil level below the add mark can
cause severe engine damage.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION

You must press and hold the brake pedal while
shifting out of PARK.
WARNING!
Never use the PARK position as a substitute
for the parking brake. Always apply the
parking brake fully when exiting the vehicle to
guard against vehicle movement and possible
injury or damage.
Your vehicle could move and injure you and
others if it is not in PARK. Check by trying to
move the transmission gear selector out of
PARK with the brake pedal released. Make
sure the transmission is in PARK before
exiting the vehicle.
The transmission may not engage PARK if the
vehicle is moving. Always bring the vehicle to a
complete stop before shifting to PARK, and
verify that the transmission gear position indi-
cator solidly indicates PARK (P) without
blinking. Ensure that the vehicle is completely
stopped, and the PARK position is properly
indicated, before exiting the vehicle.
