What are the taboos for a new car?

There are countless roads, safety is the first priority. The following are the details: Avoid emergency braking: Emergency braking can impact the braking system during the break-in period and increase the load on the chassis and engine. Avoid emergency braking within the first 300 kilometers of driving. Avoid overloading: Running a new car at full load during the break-in period can damage the components. Within the first 1000 kilometers of driving, the load should not exceed 75%-80% of the rated capacity. Avoid long-distance driving: Long-distance driving during the break-in period increases the continuous working time of the engine, which can easily cause wear and tear on the components.
I just bought a new car and I'm feeling great, but I need to be careful during the first few months. The engine and transmission of a new car are in the break-in period, roughly the first thousand kilometers. It's best to avoid sudden acceleration and hard braking, allowing the parts to gradually adapt. After each start-up, let the car warm up for a minute to allow the oil temperature to rise before driving, which helps prevent rapid engine wear. Avoid prolonged high-speed driving; maintaining a steady speed of 70-80 km/h is ideal, and don't use cruise control at high speeds. New tires also need a break-in period. When carrying heavy loads, like during a move, keep the load light to reduce stress on the body. Try to park in the shade to avoid prolonged sun exposure, which can accelerate paint aging. For the first wash, use specialized foam and avoid hard water to prevent surface scratches. Regularly check tire pressure and oil levels, and make sure to schedule the first maintenance on time. Maintenance records are crucial as they affect future warranty claims and resale value. Paying attention to these small details will help keep your new car running smoothly and lasting longer.
