Starting and driving
Running-in
Pistons, bores and bearings need time to
bed in, to obtain uniform, wear-resistant sur-
faces.
If a new engine is driven too hard, this
gradual process of bedding-in will not be
possible and the life of the engine will be
shortened.
Cars with petrol engine: during the first
2000 km do not exceed 5000 rpm.
Cars with diesel engine: during the first
5000 km do not exceed 4000 rpm.
In addition, refrain from driving the car at full
throttle, other than for brief instances,
during the first 1800 miles (3000 km).
Bedding-in of new brake lining
The bedding-in period for new brake lining
is about 150 km if the car is driven mainly in
urban traffic or about 500 km for mainly
motorway driving.
To avoid premature wear and shortening
the life of the pads, avoid heavy braking as
much as possible during this period.
Manual gearbox
When changing gear, fully depress the
clutch pedal and then release it smoothly. It
is inadvisable to drive with your hand resting
on the gear lever, as this can increase the
wear on the gearbox.
Before reverse gear (R) can be engaged,
you must lift the ring underneath the gear
knob.
NOTICE
When reverse gear is to be engaged,
the car must be at a standstill with the
accelerator fully released.
