Starting and Operating Your
Vehicle
New Vehicle Break-In
Notice: Your vehicle doesn't need an elaborate
"break-in." But it will perform better in the long run
if you follow these guidelines:
e
e
e
Don't drive at any one speed
-
fast or
slow
-
for the first
500
miles (805 km). Don't
make full-throttle starts.
Avoid making hard stops for the first
200
miles
(322
km) or so. During this time your new
brake linings aren't yet broken in. Hard stops
with new linings can mean premature wear and
earlier replacement. Follow this breaking-in
guideline every time you get new brake linings.
Don't
tnw a trailer during break-in.
See "Tawing
a Trailer" in the Index for more information.
Ignition Positions
With the ignition key in the
ignition switch, you can
turn the switch to four
different positions.
Notice: If your key seems stuck in OFF and you
can't turn it, be sure you are using the correct key;
if so, is
it
all the way in? If it is, then turn the
steering wheel left and right while you turn the key
hard. Turn the key only with your hand. Using a
switch. If none of these works, then your vehicle
needs service.
