ENGINE BREAK-IN RECOMMENDATIONS
Alongbreak-inperiodisnotrequiredfortheengineanddrivetrain(transmissionandaxle)inyour
vehicle.
Drive moderately during the first 300 miles (500 km). After the initial 60 miles (100 km), speeds
up to 50 or 55 mph (80 or 90 km/h) are desirable.
While cruising, brief full-throttle acceleration within the limits of local traffic laws contributes to a
good break-in. Wide-open throttle acceleration in low gear can be detrimental and should be
avoided.
The engine oil installed in the engine at the factory is a high-quality energy conserving type
lubricant. Oil changes should be consistent with anticipated climate conditions under which
vehicle operations will occur. For the recommended viscosity and quality grades, refer to
“Maintaining Your Vehicle.”
NOTE:
A new engine may consume some oil during its first few thousand miles (kilometers) of opera-
tion. This should be considered a normal part of the break-in and not interpreted as an indica-
tion of an engine problem or malfunction.
CAUTION!
Never use Non-Detergent Oil or Straight Mineral Oil in the engine or damage may result.

FUEL ECONOMY (ECON) MODE
The Fuel Economy (ECON) mode can improve the vehicle’s overall fuel economy during normal
driving conditions.
• Press the ECON switch in the center stack
of the instrument panel and a green light will
indicate the ECON mode is engaged.
When the ECON Mode is engaged, the ve-
hicle control systems will be able to change the
following:
• The transmission will upshift sooner and
downshift later.
• The transmission will skip select gears dur-
ing shifts to allow the engine to operate at
lower speeds.
•Thetorqueconverterclutchmayengage
sooner (lower engine rpm’s) and remain on
longer.
• The engine idle speed will be lower.
•Theoveralldrivingperformancewillbemoreconservative.
