There are no particular running-in rules for your new vehicle.
However, following a few simple precautions for the first 1,000
km can add to the good future performance, economy and long
life of your vehicle.
z Allow the engine to warm up after starting.
z Avoid harsh operations such as abrupt fast start, sudden
acceleration and prolonged high speed driving.
z Do not race the engine.
z Drive at varying speeds, trying not to “strain” the engine.
z Avoid overload when climbing.
VEHICLE CARE
RUNNING-IN PERIOD
Follow the manufacturer’s advice whenever cleaning agents
or other chemicals are used, inside or outside the vehicle.
Some cleaners may be poisonous or flammable, and im-
proper use may cause personal injury or damage. When
cleaning the inside or outside of the vehicle, do not use vola-
tile cleaning solvents such as: acetone, lacquer thinners,
enamel reducers, nail polish removers: or cleaning materi-
als such as laundry soaps, bleaches or reducing agents, ex-
cept as noted in the fabric cleaning advice on stain removal.
Never use carbon tetrachloride, petrol, benzene, or naphtha
for any cleaning purpose. Open all vehicle doors for ventila-
tion when any cleaning agents or other chemical are used in
the interior. Overexposure to some vapors may result in a
health problem which is more likely to occur in small,
unventilated spaces. To avoid possible permanent discolora-
tion of light colored seats, do not let materials with non-fast
colors come in contact with seat trim materials until these
materials are totally dry. This includes certain types of casual
clothing, such as colored denims, corduroys, leathers and
suedes: also decorative paper, etc.
