Switching Off The Engine - Ford VN TRANSIT CUSTOM 2013 Owner's Manual

Starting and Stopping the Engine
You must carry out occasional trips with
the following conditions to assist the
regeneration process:
Drive your vehicle in more favorable
conditions, which you will find at higher
vehicle speeds in normal driving, on a
main road or freeway for a minimum
of 20 minutes. This drive may include
short stops that will not affect the
regeneration process.
Avoid prolonged idling and always
observe speed limits and road
conditions.
Do not switch the ignition off.
Select a suitable gear to ideally
maintain engine speed between 1500
and 3000 RPM.

SWITCHING OFF THE ENGINE

Vehicles With a Turbocharger
WARNING
Do not switch the engine off when it
is running at high speed. 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.
