Starting and stopping the engine for turbocharger intercooler

  1. Do not race or accelerate the engine immediately after starting.

    If the engine is cold, idle for several seconds before sufficient lubrication is ensured in the turbocharger unit.

  2. After high speed or extended driving, requiring a heavy engine load, idle the engine about 1 minute before turning it off.

    This idle time will allow the turbocharger to cool prior to shutting the engine off.

    CAUTION

    Do not turn the engine off immediately after it has been subjected to a heavy load. Doing so may cause severe damage to the engine or turbocharger unit.
