Run in of New Vehicle
Due to the manufacture and assembling
deviations, the friction resistances between
the moving components of the new vehicle
at the initial stage of operation will be
much greater than the ones in normal
condition. The run in effects of the vehicle
at the initial stage of op eration will exert
great influence on the use lifetime,
working reliability and economy of the
vehicle, therefore, the use of new vehicle
must abide by the run in regulations
strictly.
Run in Regulation within 1,000
km

Full speed driving is absolutely
prohibited;

Generally, do not drive the vehicle at
the speed above 100 km/h;

Avoid driving at the top speed at any
gear.
Run in Regulation from 1,000 km
to 1,500 km

Increase to the top speed gradually or
drive at the allowable max. engine
speed.
Notice during Run in Period
For the driving of vehicles with engine
tachometer, the allowed short period top
engine speed is 6000 r/min. During the
manual gearshift, make sure to shift to the
next high gear when the engine tacho meter
indicator reached red indication area at the
latest.
Avoid the running of engine at
unnecessary high speed. The
earlier shift to high gear will
help save the fuel, reduce the working
noise as well as diminish the
environmental pollution.
The engine speed should not be excessive
low during driving. Shift to proper gear at
reasonable time.
In cold engine condition, do not run the
engine at top speed on neutral gear or any
other driving gear.
The new tires don’t have best adhesion at
the beginning of use; therefore, the tires
also need run in. The vehicle speed should
be relatively low during first 100 km
driving and the driving should be
extremely careful.
