Starting and operating
New vehicle break-in driving – the first 1,000 miles
(1,600 km)
The performance and long life of your vehicle are dependent on how you
handle and care for your vehicle while it is new. Follow these instructions
during the first 1,000 miles (1,600 km):
Do not race the engine.
Break-in engine speed limit
Never exceed 4,000 rpm engine speed except for brief acceleration
in an emergency.
Do not drive at one constant engine or vehicle speed for a long
time, either fast or slow.
Avoid starting suddenly and rapid acceleration, except in an emer-
gency.
Avoid hard braking, except in an emergency.
The same break-in procedures should be applied to a newly-installed
or overhauled engine or when brake pads or brake linings are re-
placed with new ones.
Fuel requirements
Fuel Octane Rating
Your engine is designed to use only unleaded gasoline with an octane
rating of 87 AKI or higher. This octane rating is the average of the Re-
search Octane and Motor Octane numbers and is commonly referred
to as the Anti Knock Index (AKI).
Using a gasoline with a lower octane rating can cause persistent and
heavy knocking, which can damage the engine. Do not be concerned
if your vehicle sometimes knocks lightly when you drive up a hill or
when you accelerate. See your dealer or a qualified service techni-
cian if you use a gasoline with the specified octane rating and your
vehicle knocks heavily or persistently.
