Starting and Operating Your
Vehicle
New Vehicle Break-In
Notice: Your vehicle does not need an
elaborate break-in. But it will perform better in
the long run if you follow these guidelines
for the first 500 miles (805 km):
•
Do not drive at any one constant speed,
fast or slow.
•
Do not exceed 70 mph (113 km/h).
•
Do not make full-throttle starts; also refrain
from using the full throttle while driving.
Avoid downshifting to brake, or slow,
the vehicle.
If these procedures are not followed, your
engine, axle, or other parts could be damaged.
Avoid making hard stops for the first
200 miles (322 km) or so. During this time your
new brake linings are not yet broken in.
Hard stops with new linings can mean
premature wear and earlier replacement. Follow
this break-in guideline every time you get
new linings.
Do not tow a trailer during break-in. See
Towing a Trailer on page 328 for the trailer
towing capabilities of your vehicle and more
information.
Following break-in, engine speed and load can
be gradually increased.
