Do not make full-throttle
starts. Avoid downshifting to
brake or slow the vehicle.
. Avoid making hard stops for
the first 300 km (200 mi) or
so. During this time the new
brake linings are not yet

breaking-in guideline every
time you get new brake
linings.
Following break-in, engine speed
and load can be gradually
increased.
