THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING  YOUR VEHICLE
ENGINE BREAK-IN RECOMMENDATIONS
A long  break-in  period   is not  requ ired  for the  engine  in
you r new  vehicle.
The  engine  oil installed   in the  engine  at  the  factory  is a
high   quality    energy    conserving    typ e   lubricant.    Oil
changes   shou ld  be  consistent   with  anticip ated   climate
cond itions  und er  which   vehicle   operations   will  occur.
The   recom mend ed  viscosity    and   quality    grad es  are
show n in  Section  7 of  this  manu al.  NON-DETERGEN T
OR  STRAIGHT   MINERAL   OILS   MUST  NEVER   BE
USED.
Drive  moderately    during   the  first  300  miles  (500  km).
After  the initial  60 miles  (100 km),  speed s up  to 50 or 55
mph  (80 or  90 km/ h)  are desirable.
While  cruising,  brief full-throttle   acceleration,   within  the
limits  of local traffic law s, contribu tes  to a good  break-in.
Wide-op en throttle   acceleration  in low  gear  can be  detri-
mental  and  shou ld  be avoid ed.
A new  engine  may consu me  som e oil during  its first  few
thou sand  miles (kilom eters)  of operation.   This shou ld be
consid ered  as   a  norm al  part  of  the   break-in   and   not
interp reted  as  an ind ication  of difficulty.
