Running In - Renault Koleos Owner's Handbook Manual

RUNNING IN

Petrol version
For the first 1,200 miles (2,000 km),
do not exceed 78 mph (130 km/h) in
top gear (or 3,000 to 3,500 rpm), and
change gears without over-revving the
engine. Also avoid rapid acceleration
from stationary and harsh braking, as
far as possible.
You may only expect top performance
from your vehicle after approximately
1,800 miles (3,000 km).
Service intervals: refer to the
Maintenance Service Booklet for the
vehicle.
Do not tow a trailer for the first
480 miles (800 km). This may
damage the engine, axles and other
components.
2.2
Diesel version
For the first 900 miles (1,500 km),
do not exceed 2,500 rpm. After com-
pleting this mileage you may drive
faster, although you may only expect
top performance after approximately
3,600 miles (6,000 km).
During the running in period, do not ac-
celerate hard while the engine is still
cold and do not let the engine over-rev.
Service intervals: refer to the
Maintenance Service Booklet for the
vehicle.
