BREAK-IN PERIOD
Operation During Break-In
Engine
During the break-in period:
– Avoid prolonged full throttle operation.
– Avoid sustained accelerations.
– Avoid prolonged cruising speeds.
– Avoid engine overheating.
However, brief accelerations and speed variations contribute to a
good break-in.
During a predetermined period, the engine management system
controls some engine parameters.
The duration is based on fuel volume. It will take approximately two
fuel tanks to complete the break-in.
During this period:
– The engine performance and behavior will not be optimal.
– The fuel and oil consumption will be higher.
Drive Belt
A new drive belt requires a break in period of 50 km (30 mi).
During the break-in period:
– Avoid strong acceleration and deceleration.
– Avoid pulling a load.
– Avoid high speed cruising.
If the vehicle creeps, lower the drive belt height from the preliminary
setting. Refer to
DRIVE BELT in MAINTENANCE PROCEDURE .
