%*[II03400( ALL)01/96] Breaking Your Vehicle In
*[II03500( ALL)01/96] Your new vehicle goes through an adjustment or
break-in period during the first 1,000 miles
(1,600 km) that you drive it. During the break-in
period, you need to pay careful attention to how
you drive your vehicle.
%*[II03600( ALL)01/96] ❑Avoid sudden stops. Because your vehicle

recommends. See Engine oil recommendations
in the Index. Do not use special “break-in”
oils.

Powertrain Control Module that limits engine
and/or vehicle speeds with a cut-out mode to
promote durability.
