child restraint manufacturer’s directions.
WARNING!
An incorrectly anchored tether strap could lead to
increased head motion and possible injury to the
child. Use only the anchorage position directly be-
hind the child seat to secure a child restraint top
tether strap.
Transporting Pets
Air Bags deploying in the front seat 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 the rear seat in pet harnesses
or pet carriers that are secured by seat belts.
BREAK-IN RECOMMENDATIONS
A long break-in period is not required for the drivetrain
(engine, transmission, and rear axle) in your new vehicle.
Following these few simple guidelines is all that is
necessary for a good break-in.
For the first 500 miles (800 km):
•
Keep your vehicle speed below the legal, posted speed
limit and your engine speed below 4,000 RPM.
•
Avoid driving at a constant speed, either fast or slow,
for long periods.
•
Do not make any full throttle starts and avoid full
throttle acceleration.
•
Use the proper gear for your speed range.
•
Wait until the engine has reached normal operating
temperature before driving at the recommended maxi-
mum break-in speed.
