ing precautions during
the first 300 miles (500 km).Drive your vehicle at moderate speeds during the break-in period.  Avoid revving the engine.  Avoid rough driving such as sudden starts, sudden acceleration, prolonged high- speed driving and sudden braking. These actions would have a detrimental effect onthe engine and lead to increased fuel andoil consumption; this could ultimately result in the malfunction of engine com- ponents. Be particularly careful to avoidfull acceleration while in low shift posi- tion (low gears).  Do not overload the vehicle. Stay within the seating capacity. Refer to “Cargo load precautions” on page 6-10. Refrain from towing a trailer or other vehicle. Refer to “Trailer towing” on page 6-11.

Your vehicle has seat belts and other safety
features that help protect you and your pas-
sengers in an accident.
Seat belts are the most important safety
device. When worn properly, seat belts can
reduce the chance of serious injury or death
in various types of crashes. For added protec-
tion during a severe frontal collision, your
vehicle has a Supplemental Restraint System
(SRS) with airbags for the driver and passen-
gers. The seats, head restraints, and door
locks also are safety equipment, which must
be used correctly.
Always check the following before you drive:  That everyone in your vehicle is properly
wearing their seat belt.
 That infants and small children are prop-
erly secured in an appropriate child
restraint system in the rear seat.
 That all doors are fully closed and locked.
 That seatbacks are upright, with head
restraints properly adjusted.
Safety equipment cannot prevent injury or
death in all motor vehicle accidents. How-
ever, you can help reduce the risk of injury or
death, by following the instructions in this
manual.
