To be honest, I don't even understand the language of the 1200-to-3100 mile part of the break in. "Engine and road speed can be gradually increased"... does that mean to avoid WOT and accelerate more slowly? Or does it mean "gradually increased over the range of 1200 to 3100 miles"?

Up to 1,200 miles/2,000 km
Drive at varying engine and road speeds, but do not exceed 5,500 rpm and 106 mph/170 km/h. Avoid full load or kickdown under all circumstances.

At 1,200 miles/2,000 km
Have drive-in checkup maintenance performed.

From 1,200 miles/2,000 km to 3,100 miles/5,000 km
The engine and road speed can gradually be increased to a constant speed of 137 mph/220 km/h. Use the maximum speed of 155 mph/250 km/h only briefly, for instance when passing.
