Break-In Procedure

To ensure optimal performance, follow this break-in procedure:

  • Next, complete 5 moderate stops from 35 mph to 5 mph, maintaining the same rapid succession without cooling the brakes.
  • After these steps, drive at a moderate speed for about 5 minutes to allow the brakes to cool naturally.
  • Never cool your brakes with water, as this can cause damage.
