Check the engine oil level, tire pressure,
coolant level and windshield washer uid
level before driving. Pay attention to
the following items during the running-
in period of new vehicle or engine
replacement:
Take extra care in the rst 500 km when
driving with a set of new tires. New tires
do not oer optimal grip until they have
been run-in.
The braking lining of new vehicle hardly
achieves optimal braking eect within rst
200 km vehicle running. The new braking
lining must be run-in rst to achieve the
best friction performance, and the braking
eect can be improved by depressing the
brake pedal harder.
The service life, working reliability and
fuel economy of the engine are closely
related to the initial running-in condition.
Therefore, a new engine before normal use
must go through the running-in process
from under no load to under gradually
increased load for well running-in of
friction pairs of the engine.
Notice Notice
● The braking lining and braking
disc may wear to dierent degrees
depending on the using condition
and the driving method.
● Due to the vehicle speed, braking
force and environmental conditions,
it is normal that noise may occur
during braking.
● The initial running-in mileage of the
engine is 3,000 km.
● Do not idle the engine at a high
speed when driving the vehicle.
Engine speed should not exceed
4000 r/min. Do not allow the engine
to idle for more than 3 min at a time.
● Keep the driving speed within 80
km/h.
● During the running-in period, start
the vehicle slowly. Unless it is an
emergency, try to avoid emergency
braking and let the brake work
normally.
● Avoid being towed or towing other
vehicles within the rst 1,000 km of
driving.
● Do not keep the same speed for
too long, no matter how fast it is.
Vehicles in the running-in period
should run at various speeds for full
