New

Vehicle “Break-In”

Ignition Positior-

-

NOTICE:

Your modern vehicle doesn’t need an elaborate

“break-in.” But it will perform better in the long

run if you follow these guidelines:

0

0

0

0

Keep your speed at

55

mph

(SS

km/h) or

less for the

first

500

miles

(SO5

km).

Don’t drive

at

any one speed

--

fast or

slow

--

for the first

500

miles

(SO5

km).

Don’t make full-throttle starts.

Avoid making hard stops for the first

200

miles

(322

km) or

so.

During this time

your new brake linings aren’t 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.

Don’t tow

a

trailer during break-in. See

“Towing

a

Trailer’’ in the Index for more

information.

Use your ignition

key

to stan your vehicle. The

ignition key lets

you

turn the ignition switch

to

five

different positions.

C

ACCESSORY

(A):

This position lets you use things

like

the

radio and the windshield wipers when the

engine is

off.

To

get

into

ACCESSORY,

push in the key

and turn

it

toward

you.

Your steering wheel will remain

locked, just as

it

was before you inserted the key.
