Up to 1 000 kilometres For the sake of the environment – Do not drive faster than 3/4 of the maximum speed of the gear in use, that is 3/4 of Not driving at unnecessarily high engine revolutions and shifting to a higher gear as the maximum permissible engine speed. early as possible are ways to minimise fuel consumption and operating noise levels – Do not use full throttle. and protects the environment. – Avoid high engine revolutions. New tyres – Do not tow a trailer. From 1 000 up to 1 500 kilometres New tyres have to be “run in” since they do not offer optimal grip at first. You should take account of this fact for the first 500 kilometres and drive particularly carefully. – Increase the power output of the engine gradually up to the full speed of the gear engaged, that is up to the maximum permissible engine revolutions.New brake pads During the first operating hours the engine has higher internal friction than later until Allow for the fact that new brake pads do not achieve their full braking efficiency until all of the moving parts have harmonized. Th e driving style which you adopt during the approximately 200 kilometres. New brake pads must be first “run in” before they first approx.1 500 kilometres plays a decisive part in the success of running in your develop their optimal friction force. You can, however, compensate for this slightly vehicle. reduced braking force by increasing the pressure on the brake pedal. You should not drive at unnecessarily high engine revolutions even after the This guideline also applies to any new brake pads installed at a future date. running-in period is complete. The maximum permissible en gine speed is marked by the beginning of the red zone on the scale of the revolutions counter. Shift up into the During the running-in period, you should avoi d excessive stresses on the brakes. This next higher gear on a vehicle fitted with manual gearbox before the red zone is includes, for example, violent braking, particularly from very high speeds, and also reached. Extremely high engine revolutions are automatically governed, by the way.when crossing mountain passes. For a vehicle fitted with a manual gearbox the converse situation also applies: Do not drive at engine revolutions which are too low. Shift down as soon as the engine is no longer running smoothly.
