The owner's manual was available here but seems to have been moved at Nissan's site.
In any case, here is what it says:
During the first 1,200 miles (2,000 km), follow these recommendations to obtain maximum engine performance and ensure the future reliability and economy of your new vehicle.
Failure to follow these recommendations may result in shortened engine life and reduced engine performance.
- Avoid driving for long periods at constant speed, either fast or slow. Do not run the engine over 4,000 rpm.
- Do not accelerate at full throttle in any gear.
- Avoid quick starts.
- Avoid hard braking as much as possible.
Of course, some engine builders here recommend driving without constant RPMs or idle but not avoiding high RPM early to improve break-in.
