Does the new Qashqai have a break-in period?

[LaCassandra]

Nissan's new Qashqai does have a break-in period, which is within the first 1,600 kilometers. Here are the precautions to take during the break-in period for the Nissan Qashqai: 1. Warm up the engine before starting; shortening the warm-up time can extend the lifespan of the three-way catalytic converter, improve the conversion rate of pollutants in the exhaust, and save fuel. During the break-in period, avoid slamming the accelerator or brakes. 2. Avoid high-speed driving. New vehicles have speed restrictions in the initial driving phase. Domestic vehicles generally have a speed limit of 40-70 km/h, while imported vehicles typically restrict speed to within the first 1,000 kilometers, with the speed not exceeding 80% of the maximum speed when the accelerator is fully pressed. Additionally, monitor the engine tachometer and speedometer to ensure the engine and vehicle operate at moderate speeds. 3. Avoid overloading. Running a new vehicle at full capacity can damage components. Within the first 1,000 kilometers, domestic vehicles should not exceed 75%-80% of the rated load, and imported vehicles should not exceed 90%. 4. Do not remove the speed limiter prematurely. The speed limiter is a throttle device installed between the carburetor and the intake pipe. It should be removed after the initial 1,000 kilometers, based on the initial maintenance condition. 5. Avoid long-distance trips. Long trips in a new vehicle can cause the engine to operate continuously for extended periods, increasing component wear. 6. Avoid emergency braking. Emergency braking not only shocks the braking system during break-in but also increases the impact load on the chassis and engine. Therefore, avoid emergency braking within the first 300 kilometers of driving.
