RUNNING IN
3
Petrol version
For the first 620 miles (1,000 km) do
not exceed 80 mph (130 km/h) in the
highest gear, or 3,000 to 3,500 rpm.
You can only expect top perfor-
mance from your vehicle after ap-
proximately 1,860 miles (3,000 km).
Note: for a new vehicle in the run-
ning-in phase, the coolant level may
be higher than the "MAXI" mark on
the tank, then drop to between the
"MINI" and "MAXI" marks. This does
not present a risk.
Service intervals: refer to your
vehicle's maintenance document.
Diesel version
For the first 930 miles (1,500 km), do
not exceed 80 mph (130 km/h) in the
highest gear, or 2,500 rpm.
After completing this mileage you
may drive faster, although you may
only expect top performance after
approximately 3,600 miles (6,000
km).
During the running in period, do not
accelerate hard while the engine is
still cold and do not let the engine
over-rev.
Note: for a new vehicle in the run-
ning-in phase, the coolant level may
be higher than the "MAXI" mark on
the tank, then drop to between the
"MINI" and "MAXI" marks. This does
not present a risk.
Service intervals: refer to your
vehicle's maintenance document.
