These Items Are Important
1. Upon delivery of your new Hudson Terraplane car the dealer will furnish you
with an Owner's Service Policy and Ownership Card, which entitles you to
replacement of any faulty parts in accordance with the Standard Warranty.
Please see that these two forms (illustrated on next page) are properly filled in
and signed. Also carefully read the provisions of the Owner's Service Policy and
ask your dealer to explain any points that are not clear so that no misunderstand-
ings will occur at a later date.
For your protection these forms should be placed in the locker box compartment
of your car so they will be handy should they ever be required.
2. Be sure your battery and tires are registered and that a clear understanding of the
battery and tire warranties is obtained.
3. Read your Owner's Manual carefully to acquaint yourself with the various
details of the car and assure yourself of complete satisfaction in its operation.
4. Be diligent in the "break-in" of your car. The amount of satisfaction, comfort
and pride of ownership depends on the manner in which the car is operated
during the first 1,000 miles of driving.
5. Have your dealer lubricate and thoroughly check your car periodically.
6. Duplicate keys are supplied with each car. Be sure key change numbers are noted
in the spaces provided on the Ownership Card. This is important, as insurance
regulations make it impossible to stamp the key change number on the lock
cylinder. Lost keys may be replaced by ordering from your Hudson dealer by
key change number.
The keys with the round handle are matched to the ignition and right-hand door
safety lock. The keys with the octagonal shaped handle are matched to the
instrument panel locker box lock (on Super Models only) and the rear compart-
ment or trunk lid locks.
Avoid loss of valuable time and money by locking the door safety lock as well
as ignition lock when the car is unoccupied.
Carburetor Governor
To assure your car reaching you in good condition, and to protect the mechanism
by restricting top speed, a governor has been installed on your carburetor by the
factory. While the governor is in place it will restrict top speed and acceleration,
and will also slightly increase the carburetor air intake noise.
When your car is returned to your dealer for the 500-mile inspection, the governor
will be removed and the engine tuned up. Although the speed restriction has been
removed, you should continue to be diligent in operating the car at moderate
speeds until it has been properly run in.
