During the first 1,000 miles (1,609 km),
follow these recommendations for the future
reliability and economy of your new vehicle.
Failure to follow these recommendations
may result in vehicle damage or shortened
engine life.
● Do not run the engine over 4,000 rpm.
● Do not drive over the following speed
limits:
2-wheel drive models:
55 MPH (88 km/h)
4-wheel drive models
(2H or 4H position):
55 MPH (88 km/h)
4-wheel drive models
(4L position):
30 MPH (48 km/h)
● Do not accelerate at full throttle in any
gear.
● Avoid quick starts.
● Avoid hard braking as much as possible.
● Do not tow a trailer for the first 500 miles
(805 km).
●
For the first 300 miles (483 km), it is
recommended that you drive in the
2-wheel drive (2H) position with the free-
running hubs set in LOCK if your vehicle
is equipped with manual-lock free-
running hubs.
● Accelerate slowly and smoothly. Maintain
cruising speeds with a constant accelera-
tor position.
● Drive at moderate speeds on the high-
way. Driving at high speeds lowers fuel
economy.
● Avoid unnecessary stopping and brak-
ing. Maintain a safe distance behind
other vehicles.
● Use a proper gear range which suits road
conditions. On level roads, shift into high
gear as soon as possible.
● Avoid unnecessary engine idling.
