WARNING!
An incorrectly anchored tether strap could lead to
increased head motion and possible injury to the
child. Use only the anchor position directly behind
the child seat to secure a child restraint top tether
strap.
Transporting Pets
Deploying airbags could harm your pet. An unrestrained
pet will be thrown about and possibly injured, or injure a
passenger during panic braking or in a collision.
Pets should be restrained in pet harnesses or pet carriers
that are secured by seat belts.
ENGINE BREAK-IN RECOMMENDATIONS
The engine in your new Crossfire does not require a long
break-in period. Following these few simple guidelines is
all that is necessary for a good break-in.
•
Drive your vehicle at moderate vehicle and engine
speeds during the first 1,000 miles (1,600 km).
•
Do not make any full throttle starts and avoid full
throttle acceleration.
•
Use the proper transmission gear for your speed
range.
•
Avoid excessive idling.
•
Check the engine oil level at every fuel fill.
NOTE:
A new engine may consume some oil during the
first few thousand miles of operation. This should be
considered as a normal part of the break-in and not an
indication of a problem.
