STARTING AND OPERATING
Use the following precautions for the
first few hundred kilometers to improve
the performance and economy of your
vehicle and add to its long life:
— Avoid full-throttle starts.
— Allow the engine to warm up before
driving.
—
Do not race the engine.
—
Avoid hard stops except in emergen-
cies. This will allow your brakes to
bed in properly.
—
Avoid quick starts, sudden accelera-
tions, and prolonged high-speed
driving in order to avoid damage to
the engine and to conserve fuel.
— Avoid full-throttle acceleration in
low gear.
— Do not tow any other vehicle.
New Vehicle Running-In Period Ignition Switch Positions
HEX0109
Located to the right side of steering
column, the ignition switch has the
following positions: LOCK, ACC, ON,
and START.
—
LOCK
To lock the steering wheel, remove the
key and turn the steering wheel
clockwise until it is locked.
In order to operate the key while
unlocking the steering wheel, turn the
steering wheel from left to right gently
and then turn the key to the ACC
position.
—
Operate the engine above idle only
after normal engine oil pressure has
been established. Forcing the
turbocharger to operate before the
bearings are adequately lubricated
creates unnecessary friction.
— Use only the specified engine oil
and observe inspection and
replacement intervals.
— At low ambient temperature, or
when the vehicle has not been used
for a long period, normal engine oil
pressure and flow is affected. Under
these conditions the engine should
be started and allowed to idle for a
few minutes before operating at
higher rpm.
