turn the ignition switch to the

Starting and stopping the engine
for turbocharger intercooler
1. Do not race or accelerate the en‐
gine immediately after starting.
If the engine is cold, idle for several
seconds before sufficient lubrica‐
tion is ensured in the turbocharger
unit.
2. After high speed or extended driv‐
ing, requiring a heavy engine load,
idle the engine about 1 minute be‐
fore turning it off.
This idle time will allow the turbo‐
charger to cool prior to shutting the
engine off.
CAUTION
Do not turn the engine off immedi‐
ately after it has been subjected to a
heavy load. Doing so may cause se‐
vere damage to the engine or turbo‐
charger unit.
CAUTION
If the engine stalls while you are in
motion, do not attempt to move the
shift lever to the P (Park) position. If
traffic and road conditions permit,
you may put the shift lever in the N
(Neutral) position while the vehicle is
still moving and turn the ignition
switch to the START position in an
attempt to restart the engine.
