New Vehicle Break-In

Notice:

Your vehicle doesn’t need an elaborate

“break-in.” But it will perform better in the long run

if you follow these guidelines:

• Don’t drive at any one speed — fast or

slow — for the ﬁrst 500 miles (805 km).

Don’t make full-throttle starts.

• Avoid making hard stops for the ﬁrst 200 miles

(322 km) or so. During this time your new

brake linings aren’t yet broken in. Hard stops

with new linings can mean premature wear and

earlier replacement. Follow this breaking-in

guideline every time you get new brake linings.

• Don’t tow a trailer during break-in. See “Towing

a Trailer” in the Index for more information.

Ignition Positions

There are four different positions in the ignition switch

which is located on the instrument panel, to the right

of the steering column. Insert the key in the ignition and

turn it to the right for each position.

Insert the key in the

ignition and turn it to the

right for each position.

9 (OFF): This position locks the ignition, steering

wheel and transaxle. It’s a theft-deterrent feature.

It’s also the only position from which the key can be

removed.
