    NOTE: Drive with smooth throttle operation and avoid sudden acceleration.
    If IAT is less than 50°F (10°C) when starting engine, continue to drive vehicle at 40 - 55 mph (64 - 88 km/h) for approximately 4 minutes.
  3. Drive vehicle allowing speed to fluctuate between 35 - 45 mph (56 - 72 km/h) for about 16 minutes.
