Default New ES 330 break in

I was woundering if there is a break in period for the ES 330, I just got one a few days a go with Nav/lev. My dealer said there isn't a break in period but just to be on the safe side. Also what octaine of gas would be good to use. it says like the middle one what ever octaine that is.
thanks

There is a nice black leather bound folder with your Owner's Manual and Owner's Manual Supplement (as well as all that lemon law stuff). The answers to those questions AND MORE!! are there...........just for looking!!!

Hint: don't let engine rpm exceed 4k for the first 1000 miles.

Default fuel preference

I would use gas with Octane Rating of at least 89 (or mid-grade, depending on location). Luxury cars need cleaner fuel to treat the engines and evaporative systems more efficiently.
