OPERATING NEW VEHICLE
How a new vehicle is handled and maintained determines
the life of the vehicle.
A new vehicle just off the factory production line has been,
of course, tested, but the various parts are not
accustomed to each other, so care should be taken to
operate the vehicle for the first 50 hours at a slower speed
and avoid excessive work or operation until the various
parts become "broken-in." The manner in which the
vehicle is handled during the "breaking-in" period greatly
affects the life of your vehicle. Therefore, to obtain the
maximum performance and the longest life of the vehicle,
it is very important to properly break-in your vehicle. In
handling a new vehicle, the following precautions should
be observed.
B
Do not Operate the Vehicle at Full Speed
for the First 50 Hours
A
Do not start quickly nor apply the brakes suddenly.
A
In winter, operate the vehicle after fully warming up the
engine.
A
Do not run the engine at speeds faster than
necessary.
A
On rough roads, slow down to suitable speeds.
Do not operate the vehicle at fast speed. The above
precautions are not limited only to new vehicles, but to
all vehicles. But it should be especially observed in the
case of new vehicles.
B
Changing Lubricating Oil for New
Vehicles
The lubricating oil is especially important in the case of a
new vehicle. The various parts are not "broken-in" and are
not accustomed to each other. Small pieces of metal grit
may develop during the operation of the vehicle; and this
may wear out or damage the parts. Therefore, care should
be taken to change the lubricating oil a little earlier than
would ordinarily be required. For further details of change
interval hours, see "MAINTENANCE" section.
