down, helping the fitting of different parts. During running-in period, engine load may be properly increased. Apply some load to engine parts
to guarantee good fitting. This is every important, but do not apply excessive load to the engine.
Avoid driving at a low speed
Running at a certain low engine speed (with light load) can only polish the parts but cannot get a good running-in. So long as the upper limit
of recommended throttle opening is not exceeded, drive the vehicle in various gears with proper acceleration. However, never drive at the
maximum acceleration during the first 1600 km.
Make oil circulating before driving
After starting of warm or cold engine and before applying load or driving, let the engine run at idle speed for an adequate time. This allows
lubricant to flow to all import engine parts, so as to reduce wearing and increase the service life. This also helps the engine to warm-up
sufficiently.
First maintenance inspection
The maintenance of the first 1000 km is the most important. During running-in period, all engine parts have been run-in and other parts engaged.
Then, all parts shall be adjusted, all fasteners be tightened, contaminated engine oil be replaced and filter element be replaced.
Timely making 1000 km maintenance can guarantee a long engine life and the best engine performance.
Precaution←
1000 km maintenance shall be carried out according to the “Troubleshooting” in the manual. Pay special attention to the “precaution” and
“warning” in the section.
