Starting the Diesel
Engine
Observe the following precautions to
ensure maximum turbocharger
service life.
.
After starting the engine, let it
idle for approximately 1 to
2 minutes (avoid acceleration or
driving the vehicle).
.
Do not stop the engine
immediately after high-load
driving (such as high-speed
driving or driving up steep
gradients). Let the engine idle
for approximately 1 to 2 minutes
to cool it down.
.
After changing the engine oil
and oil filter, start the engine and
let it idle for about 1 to 2 minutes
(avoid acceleration or driving the
vehicle).
.
Operate the engine above idle
speed only after normal engine
oil pressure has been
established. Forcing the
turbocharger to operate before
the bearings are adequately
lubricated creates unnecessary
friction.
.
Use only the specified engine oil
and observe the inspection and
replacement intervals.
.
At low outside temperatures or
when the vehicle has not been
used for a long period, normal
engine oil pressure and flow is
affected.
Under these conditions, the
engine should be started and
allowed to idle for a few minutes
before operating at higher rpms.
Parking
1. Apply the parking brake firmly
without engaging the release
button.
2. Automatic transmission: Select
position P.
Manual transmission: If facing
uphill or on flat ground, select
1st gear. If facing downhill,
select reverse gear.
