Drive your vehicle at moderate speeds during the break-in period.
- Avoid revving the engine.
- Avoid rough driving such as sudden starts, sudden acceleration, prolonged high speed driving, and sudden braking. These actions would have a detrimental effect on the engine and lead to increased fuel and oil consumption; this could ultimately result in the malfunction of engine components. Be particularly careful to avoid full acceleration while in a low shift position (low gears).
