What does the break-in period of a car mean?
1 Answers
The break-in period of a car refers to the initial driving distance after the car leaves the factory, during which the various components of the engine are allowed to wear in smoothly. The first maintenance cycle for a car is typically around 5,000 kilometers. During the break-in period, the car's components can adjust and improve their ability to adapt to the environment, and any protrusions on the parts are worn down. Precautions to take during the car's break-in period include: 1. Warm up the engine before starting; 2. Avoid emergency braking; 3. Avoid overloading; 4. Do not take long trips; 5. Do not drive at high speeds; 6. Use high-quality gasoline; 7. Do not remove the speed limiter prematurely; 8. Shift gears in a timely manner; 9. Properly adjust the ignition system and fuel supply system.
