3.1 Street Break-in Procedure
• Try to avoid abrupt, hard stops for the first 200 miles (300 km)
• Avoid any racing OR off-road activities for the first 200 miles (300 km)
• Avoid repeated incline/decline braking for the first 200 miles (300 km)
3.2 Alternate Break in Procedure
CAUTION: Chrysler does not endorse speeding on public roads;
therefore, if a safe area cannot be used for break-in, you must
perform the street break-in procedure.
Regardless of completing the "street break-in procedure,"
this alternative break-in procedure is recommended before any
track use of the vehicle.
In the event that the street break-in procedure can't be performed
before the pads and rotors are thermally stressed, use the following
procedure:
1. Read through the procedure and find a suitable, safe and legal
area to perform the necessary stops.
2. BEFORE starting the break-in procedure, drive with gentle
braking. Do not use brakes aggressively until performing
brake-in procedure.
3. Make a series of 10 stops from 60 to 5-10 MPH. At the end of
each stop, immediately accelerate to 60 again for the next stop.
Run all stops continuously in one cycle.
NOTE: A moderate braking effort is needed to properly break in the
rotors and pads. A stopping force of approximately 0.8G's, just
short of ABS intervention, is the level of pedal effort you are trying
to attain.
4. During the 60 to 5-10 MPH series of stops, the exact speed is
not critical. Accelerate to approximately 60 and begin the braking
cycle. As you approach 5-10 MPH, it is not necessary to watch the
speedometer. Keep your eyes on the road and approximate your
speed at the end of each cycle.
CAUTION: Do not come to a complete stop! This will imprint pad
material onto the rotor, causing a vibration during future use.
