Just keep it below 120kph and 3,000 (def no more than 4,000) rpm and drive it gently.

I think it's more the other components like the gearbox etc that need to wear in, so bear that in mind as you drive. I think it's especially important with manuals that gear changes
should be done relatively gently and slowly until the gearbox loosens up. This should help ensure smooth-feeling gear changes instead of a notchy ones.
