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 Viper does not require a long
break-in period. Following these few simple guidelines is
all that is necessary for a good break-in:
For the first 500 miles (800 km):
•
Keep your vehicle speed below the legal, posted speed
limit and your engine speed below 4,000 rpm.
•
Avoid driving at a constant speed, either fast or slow,
for long periods of time.
•
Do not make any full throttle starts and avoid full
throttle acceleration.
•
Use the proper gear for your speed range.
•
Wait until the engine has reached normal operating
temperature before driving at the recommended maxi-
mum break-in speed.
•
Avoid excessive idling.
•
Check the engine oil level at every fuel fill.
NOTE: A new engine will 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
interpreted as a sign of difficulty.
