    handle and care for your vehicle while it is new. Follow these instructions
    during the first 1000 miles (1600 km):

    • Do not allow the engine speed to exceed 4000 rpm except in an emergency.
    • Do not drive at one constant engine or vehicle speed for a long time,
      either fast or slow.
    • Avoid starting suddenly and rapid acceleration, except in an emergency.
    • Avoid hard braking, except in an emergency.
      The same break-in procedures should be applied to an overhauled
      engine, newly mounted engine or when brake pads or brake linings are
      replaced with new ones.
Seems to be the same as the BRZ, as expected.
