The first 1000 miles (1500 km)
The more cautiously you treat your vehicle
during the break-in period, the more satis-
fied you will be with its performance later
on.
앫 Drive your vehicle during the first
1000 miles (1500 km) at varying but
moderate vehicle and engine speeds.
앫 During this period, avoid heavy loads
(full throttle driving) and excessive en-
gine speeds (no more than
2
/
3
of maxi-
mum rpm in each gear).
앫 Avoid accelerating by kick-down.
앫 Do not attempt to slow the vehicle
down by shifting to a lower gear using
the gear selector lever.
앫 Select positions 3, 2 or 1 only when
driving at moderate speeds (for hill
driving).
After 1000 miles (1500 km) you may grad-
ually increase vehicle and engine speeds
to the permissible maximum.
