During the first 1,600 km (1,000 miles), follow these
recommendations to obtain maximum engine per-
formance and ensure the future reliability and
economy of your new vehicle. Failure to follow these
recommendations may result in shortened engine
life and reduced engine performance.
•
Do not drive at a constant speed, either fast or
slow, for long periods of time.
•
Do not run the engine over 4,000 rpm.
•
Do not accelerate at full throttle in any gear.
•
Do not start quickly.
•
Do not brake hard as much as possible.
•
Do not tow a trailer for at least the first 800 km
(500 miles).
WARNING
The driving characteristics of your vehicle will
change remarkably by any additional load and its
distribution, as well as by adding optional equip-
ment (trailer coupling, roof rail, etc.). Your driving
style and speed must be adjusted according to
the circumstances. Especially when carrying
heavy loads, your speed must be reduced
adequately.
•
Make sure the area around the vehicle is clear.
•
Check fluid levels such as engine oil, coolant,
brake (and clutch) fluid, window washer fluid as
frequently as possible, at least whenever you re-
fuel.
•
Visually inspect tyres for their appearance and
condition. Measure and check the tyre pressure
for proper inflation.
•
Check that all windows and lights are clean.
•
Adjust the seat and head restraint positions.
•
Adjust the inside and outside rearview mirror
positions.
•
Fasten your seat belt and ask all passengers to
do the same.
•
Check that all doors are closed.
•
Check the operation of the warning lights when
the ignition switch is placed in the “ON” position.
•
Maintenance items in the “8. Maintenance and
do-it-yourself” section should be checked peri-
odically.
WARNING
•
Never leave children or adults who would nor-
mally require the support of others alone in
your vehicle. Pets should not be left alone ei-
ther.
They could unknowingly activate
switches or controls, or move the vehicle, and
inadvertently become involved in a serious ac-
cident and injure themselves. On hot, sunny
days, temperatures in a closed vehicle could
quickly become high enough to cause severe
or possibly fatal illness to people or animals.
•
Properly secure all cargo to help prevent it
from sliding or shifting. Do not place cargo
higher than the seatbacks. In a sudden stop or
collision,
unsecured cargo could cause
personal injury.
NOTE
During the first few months after purchasing a
new vehicle, if you smell strong odours of Volatile
Organic Compounds (VOCs) inside the vehicle,
ventilate the passenger compartment thor-
oughly. Open all the windows before entering or
while in the vehicle. In addition, when the tem-
perature in the passenger compartment rises, or
when the vehicle is parked in direct sunlight for a
period of time, turn off the air recirculation mode
of the air conditioner and/or open the windows
to allow sufficient fresh air into the passenger
compartment.
