Starting and stopping the engine for turbocharger intercooler
-
Do not race or accelerate the engine immediately after starting.
If the engine is cold, idle for several seconds to allow sufficient lubrication is applied in the turbocharger unit.
-
After high speed or extended driving, which puts strain on the 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.
