page 72 .

DANGER!
Instructions for engines with exhaust gas turbocharger:
After the first engine start, change the engine oil and the oil
filter and comply with the following:
♦ The engine must only run in idle when the oil pressure
warning light is lit in the dash panel insert.
♦ Do not accelerate!
♦ Once the oil pressure warning light goes out in the dash
panel insert, the full oil pressure is reached and acceler‐
ating is possible.
In case of sudden gas shocks, the turbocharger can be dam‐
aged or totally destroyed!
The turbocharger runs at very high speeds and can therefore
be severely damaged or totally destroyed within a few seconds
due to insufficient bearing lubrication!
Switch off the engine immediately in the event of an oil leakage,
vibrations or unusual noise from the turbocharger.
– Install the noise insulation.
– Check the engine oil level again and top up with oil if neces‐
sary.
– Wait at least 3 minutes after topping up the oil again before
inspecting the oil level again.
Note
The oil level must not be above the -A- mark (max) to avoid dam‐
age to the catalytic converter
