NEW VEHICLE RUNNING-IN
Do not brake unnecessarily hard for the
first few journeys.
During the first drive, smoke may occur
because of wax and oil evaporating off
the exhaust system. Park the vehicle in
the open for a while after the first drive
and avoid inhaling the fumes.
During the running-in period, fuel and
engine oil consumption may be higher.
Additionally, the cleaning process of the
exhaust filter may take place more often.
