Drive it like you stole it

There are some additional instructions in the owners manual, might want to have a look at that if you want the "official" suggested procedure.

Never really had restrictions, the only restriction is what you choose to do.

But since you did it, you are fine.

The next scheduled service is 10,000 or so miles for the next oil change.
