Narrative:

Departing teb, the departure procedure requires a climb to 1500 ft on runway heading, then right turn to a heading of 280 degrees, thence when 4.5 DME a climb to 3000 ft. On departure, we executed the above procedure and continued climb to 3000 ft after the turn to 280 degrees. When handed off to departure control we were advised of the 1500 ft limit until 4.5 DME and if we understood the departure procedure. At this time the DME readout was greater than 10 mi and were advised of the potential conflict with newark's arrs. Contributing factors to this situation include lack of familiarity with local area, delay in the handoff from the tower to departure, rush hour air traffic within the new york, new jersey area, and passenger load which included the owner of our company.
