Honda Fit: Break-in Period
Help assure your vehicle’s future reliability and performance by paying extra attention to how you drive during the first 600 miles (1,000 km).
During this period:
• Avoid full-throttle starts and rapid acceleration.
• Avoid hard braking for the first 200 miles (300 km).
• Do not change the oil until the scheduled maintenance time.
You should also follow these recommendations with an overhauled or exchanged engine, or when the brakes are replaced.
