BREAKING-IN YOUR VEHICLE
Your vehicle does not need an extensive break-in. Try not to drive
continuously at the same speed for the first 1,000 miles (1,600 km) of
new vehicle operation. Vary your speed frequently in order to give the
moving parts a chance to break in.
Drive your new vehicle at least 1,000 miles (1,600 km) before towing a
trailer. For more detailed information about towing a trailer, refer to
Trailer towing
in the
Tires, Wheels and Loading
chapter.
Do not add friction modifier compounds or special break-in oils since
these additives may prevent piston ring seating. See
Engine oil
in the
Maintenance and Specifications
chapter for more information on oil
usage.
