tion and wait until the glow plug indicator
goes out if it comes on. Crank the engine

NOTICE
• Stop turning the starter immedi-
ately after the engine has started or
the starter system can be damaged.

ing again.
Warm engine

Caution when stopping the engine with
turbocharger
When stopping the engine after climbing or
high speed driving, let the engine idle for
about one minute or more (if it is not pro-
hibited) to cool down the turbocharger and
engine oil. This is to prevent the engine oil
from
over-deteriorating.
Deteriorated
engine oil will damage the bearings of the
turbocharger.
