New Vehicle Run-In

Use the following precautions for
the first few hundred kilometres
(miles) to improve the performance
and economy of your vehicle and
add to its long life:
Avoid full-throttle starts.
Do not race the engine.
Avoid hard stops except in
emergencies. This will allow
your brakes to bed in properly.
Avoid quick starts, sudden
accelerations, and prolonged
high-speed driving in order to
avoid damage to the engine and
to conserve fuel.
Avoid full-throttle acceleration in
low gear.
Do not tow any other vehicle.
