WARNING
Do not switch the engine off
when it is running at high speed
or immediately after heavy towing. If
you do, the turbocharger will continue
running after the engine oil pressure
has dropped to zero. This will lead to
premature turbocharger bearing wear.
Release the accelerator pedal. Wait until
the engine has reached idle speed and
then switch it off.
