Chrysler 2004 Crossfire, Manual, Page: 43 / 251

WARNING!
An incorrectly anchored tether strap could lead to
increased head motion and possible injury to the
child. Use only the anchor position directly behind
the child seat to secure a child restraint top tether
strap.
Transporting Pets
Deploying airbags could harm your pet. An unrestrained
pet will be thrown about and possibly injured, or injure a
passenger during panic braking or in a collision.
Pets should be restrained in pet harnesses or pet carriers
that are secured by seat belts.
ENGINE BREAK-IN RECOMMENDATIONS
The engine in your new Crossfire does not require a long
break-in period. Following these few simple guidelines is
all that is necessary for a good break-in.
•
Drive your vehicle at moderate vehicle and engine
speeds during the first 1,000 miles (1,600 km).
•
Do not make any full throttle starts and avoid full
throttle acceleration.
•
Use the proper transmission gear for your speed
range.
•
Avoid excessive idling.
•
Check the engine oil level at every fuel fill.
NOTE: A new engine may consume some oil during the
first few thousand miles of operation. This should be
considered as a normal part of the break-in and not an
indication of a problem.
