ENGINE BREAK-IN
RECOMMENDATIONS
ENGINE BREAK-IN
For both engines, use the following engine
break-in recommendations:
NOTE:
A new engine may consume some oil during its
firs
t few thousand miles (kilometers) of opera-
tion. This should be considered a normal part of
t
he break-in period and not interpreted as an indi-
cation of a problem. Please monitor your oil level
d
uring the break-in period and add oil as
required.
It is recommended for the operator to observe the
fol
lowing driving behaviors during the new vehicle
break-in period:
0 to 100 miles (0 to 160 km):
Do not allow the engine to operate at idle for an
extended period of time.
Press the accelerator pedal slowly and not
more than halfway to avoid rapid acceleration.
Avoid aggressive braking.
Drive with the engine speed less than
3,500 RPM.
Maintain vehicle speed below 55 mph
(88 km/h) and observe local speed limits.
100 to 300 miles (160 to 483 km):
Press the accelerator pedal slowly and not
more than halfway to avoid rapid acceleration
in lower gears (FIRST to THIRD gears).
Avoid aggressive braking.
Drive with the engine speed less than
5,000 RPM.
Maintain vehicle speed below 70 mph
(112 km/h) and observe local speed limits.
300 to 500 miles (483 to 805 km):
Exercise the full engine RPM range, shifting
manually (paddles or gear shift) at higher RPM
when possible.
Do not perform sustained operation with the
accelerator pedal at wide open throttle.
Maintain vehicle speed below 85 mph
(136 km/h) and observe local speed limits.
For the first 1,500 miles (2,414 km):
Do not participate in track events, sport driving
schools, or similar activities during the first
1,500
miles (2,414 km).
NOTE:
Monitor engine oil with every refueling and add if
ne
cessary. Oil and fuel consumption may be
higher through the first oil change interval.
