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:
D Keep your speed at 55 mph (88 km/h) or
less for the first 500 miles (805 km).
D Don’t drive at any one speed
-- fast or
slow
-- for the first 500 miles (805 km).
Don’t make full
-throttle starts.
D 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.
D Don’t tow a trailer during break
-in.
See “Towing a Trailer” in the Index for
more information.
Ignition Positions
You can use your key to turn the ignition switch to
five different positions.
ACCESSORY (A): This position lets you use things
like the radio, power windows and the windshield
wipers when the engine is off. Push in the key and turn
it toward you.
LOCK (B): This position locks your ignition and
transmission. It’s a theft
-deterrent feature. You will only
be able to remove your key when the ignition is turned
to LOCK.
