Sun Visors
To block out glare, you can swing down the
visors. You can also swing them out to block glare
from the side.
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:
•
Let your engine warm up before you
operate your vehicle under load.
•
Keep your speed at 55 mph (88 km/h) or
less for the first 500 miles (805 km).
•
Do not drive at any one speed, fast or
slow, for the first 500 miles (805 km).
Do not make full-throttle starts.
•
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 breaking-in guideline every time
you get new brake linings.
•
Use the lowest gear you can when you start
a loaded vehicle in motion and when going
up hills to avoid overloading the engine.
•
Check and adjust engine and transmission
fluid levels often and be sure tires are
properly inflated for the load you are
carrying.
