- Don't press full «gas»; if you have an automatic transmission, avoid the full load position and sudden depressing of the accelerator pedal all the way. Maximum rotational speed: 4200 rpm!
- Squeeze out more than 4200 rpm not earlier than the engine reaches operating temperature; shift earlier when the engine is cold.
- When passing the first 1000-1500 km, the engine should be gradually accelerated to the maximum speed or the maximum allowable speed (short-term 6300 rpm).
Hint: Everything that has been said here about a new engine is even more important for a break-in engine that is known to be more sensitive to bad driving habits.
