Introduction
61
No special break-in period is needed.
By following a few simple precautions
for the first 600 miles (1,000 km) you
may add to the performance, econo-
my and life of your vehicle.
 Do not race the engine.
 While driving, keep your enginespeed (rpm, or revolutions per
minute) between 2,000 rpm and
4,000 rpm.
 Do not maintain a single speed for long periods of time, either fast or
slow. Varying engine speed is
needed to properly break-in the
engine.
 Avoid hard stops, except in emer- gencies, to allow the brakes to seat
properly.
VEHICLE BREAK-IN PROCESS
CALIFORNIA PROPO-
SITION 65 WARNING
Items contained in motor vehi-
cles or emitted from them are
known to the State of California

defects or reproductive harm.
These include:
 Gasoline and its vapors
 Engine exhaust
 Used engine oil
 Interior passenger compart-ment components and materi-
als
 Component parts which are subject to heat and wear
In addition, battery posts, termi-
nals and related accessories

Introduction
This vehicle is equipped with an
event data recorder (EDR). The
main purpose of an EDR is to
record, in certain crash or near
crash-like situations, such as an
air bag deployment or hitting a
road obstacle, data that will assist
in understanding how a vehicle's
systems performed. The EDR is
designed to record data related to
vehicle dynamics and safety sys-
tems for a short period of time,
typically 30 seconds or less. The
EDR in this vehicle is designed to
record such data as:
 How various systems in yourvehicle were operating;
 Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were
buckled/fastened;
 How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator
and/or brake pedal; and,
 How fast the vehicle was travel- ing. These data can help provide a bet-
ter understanding of the circum-
stances in which crashes and
injuries occur. NOTE: EDR data are
recorded by your vehicle only if a
non-trivial crash situation occurs;
no data are recorded by the EDR
under normal driving conditions
and no personal data (e.g., name,
gender, age, and crash location)
are recorded. However, other par-
ties, such as law enforcement,
could combine the EDR data with
the type of personally identifying
data routinely acquired during a
crash investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR,
special equipment is required, and
access to the vehicle or the EDR is
needed. In addition to the vehicle
manufacturer, other parties, such
as law enforcement, that have the
special equipment, can read the
information if they have access to
the vehicle or the EDR.

Safety features of your vehicle
 Just before impact, drivers oftenbrake heavily. Such heavy braking
lowers the front portion of the vehi-
cle causing it to “ride” under a vehi-
cle with a higher ground clearance.
Air bags may not inflate in this
"under-ride" situation because
deceleration forces that are detect-
ed by sensors may be significantly
reduced by such “under-ride” colli-
sions.  They are deployed if the rollover or
the possible rollover event is
detected by ACU (Airbag Control
Unit). They are not designed to be
deployed in all rollover situations.  Air bags may not inflate if the vehi-
cle collides with objects such as
utility poles or trees, where the
point of impact is concentrated to
one area and the deceleration
forces are significantly reduced.
