NISSAN CVT SIC0697 - Manual (Page 178)

During the first 1,200 miles (2,000 km), follow
these recommendations to obtain maximum en-
gine performance and ensure the future reliability
and economy of your new vehicle. Failure to
follow these recommendations may result in
shortened engine life and reduced engine per-
formance.
¼ Avoid driving for long periods at constant
speed, either fast or slow. Do not run the
engine over 4,000 rpm.
¼ Do not accelerate at full throttle in any gear.
¼ Avoid quick starts.
¼ Avoid hard braking as much as possible.
¼ Do not tow a trailer for the first 500 miles
(800 km).
¼ Accelerate slowly and smoothly. Maintain
cruising speeds with a constant accelerator
position.
¼ Drive at moderate speeds on the highway.
Driving at high speed will lower fuel economy.
¼ Avoid unnecessary stopping and braking.
Maintain a safe distance behind other ve-
hicles.
¼ Use a proper gear range which suits road
conditions. On level roads, shift into high gear
as soon as possible.
¼ Avoid unnecessary engine idling.
¼ Keep your engine tuned up.
¼ Follow the recommended periodic mainte-
nance schedule.
¼ Keep the tires inflated at the correct pres-
sure. Low pressure will increase tire wear and
waste fuel.
¼ Keep the front wheels in correct alignment.
Improper alignment will cause not only tire
wear but also lower fuel economy.
¼ Air conditioner operation lowers fuel
economy. Use the air conditioner only when
necessary.
¼ When cruising at highway speeds, it is more
economical to use the air conditioner and
leave the windows closed to reduce drag.
