For the first 500 miles/805 km:
• Avoid full throttle starts and abrupt stops.
• Do not exceed 4,000 engine rpm.
• Avoid driving at any one constant speed, fast or
slow, including the use of cruise control.
• Avoid downshifting to brake or slow the vehicle
when the engine speed will exceed 4000 RPM.
• Do not let the engine labor. Never lug the
engine in high gear at low speeds. With a manual
transmission, shift to the next lower gear. This rule
applies at all times, not just during the break-in
period.
For the first 1,500 miles/2414 km:
• Do not participate in track events, sport driving
schools, or similar activities during the first
1,500 miles/2414 km.
• Check engine oil with every refueling and add if
necessary. Oil and fuel consumption may be higher
than normal during the first 1,500 miles/2414 km.
Front Air Dam
The vehicle is equipped with a front air dam which has
minimal ground clearance.
Vehicles with the ZR-1 package also come with a splitter
made from carbon fiber.
{ CAUTION:
The splitter in the ZR-1 is made from carbon fiber.
When damaged, the exposed edges can be very
sharp. A person could be injured by these sharp
edges. Use caution when washing the vehicle,
coming in contact with, or removing damaged
carbon fiber parts. See your dealer/retailer for
replacement.
Under normal operation, these components will
occasionally contact some road surfaces (speed bumps,
driveway ramps, etc.). This can be heard inside the
vehicle as a scraping noise. This is normal and does
not indicate a problem.
Use care when approaching bumps or objects on road
surfaces and avoid them when possible.
