VEHICLE BREAK-IN PERIOD
The break-in period for your new vehicle is the first 50 hours of operation. No
single action on your part is as important as a proper break-in period. Careful

life for the engine. Perform the following procedures carefully.
Excessive heat build-up during the first 3 hours of operation will damage close-
fitted engine parts and drive components. Do not operate at full throttle or high
BRAKE SYSTEM BREAK-IN
Apply only moderate braking force for the first 50 stops. Aggressive or overly
forceful braking when the brake system is new could damage brake pads and
rotors.
