What are the precautions for driving a new car on the highway?

Precautions for driving a new car on the highway are as follows: 1. Do not let the engine run continuously for more than 2 hours within the first 2000 kilometers. Prolonged continuous operation of a new car will accelerate wear and tear on components, directly affecting the vehicle's lifespan. 2. Avoid speeding and aggressive driving. 3. Do not remove the speed limiter prematurely. Vehicles are usually equipped with a speed limiter before leaving the factory, which is a throttle device installed between the carburetor and the intake pipe. Drivers should not remove it in advance; it should be removed after the initial 1000 kilometers, based on the initial maintenance condition. Nowadays, most vehicles do not come with a speed limiter, and drivers must control the speed themselves. 4. Avoid emergency braking. Emergency braking not only shocks the braking system during the break-in period but also increases the impact load on the chassis and engine. Do not use emergency braking within the first 300 kilometers of driving. If an emergency situation arises, try to press the clutch pedal first to reduce the impact on the engine. 5. Avoid using non-standard oil. The oil used for a new car must not be of a lower grade than specified by the manufacturer.
