disposal of waste cleaning and

lubrication materials are significant

steps towards this aim. Information in this respect is highlighted in this

guide with the tree symbol.

BREAKING-IN YOUR VEHICLE

There are no particular guidelines for breaking-in your vehicle. During

the first 1,600 km (1,000 miles) of driving, vary speeds frequently. This is

recommended to give the moving parts a chance to break in.
