STARTING AND OPERATING 139
STOPPING THE ENGINE
After full load operation, idle the engine for a few minutes before shutting it down. This idle period will allow the lubricating oil and coolant to carry excess heat away from the
turbocharger.
NOTE:
Refer to the following chart for proper engine shutdown.
NOTE:
Under certain conditions the Stop/Start system may be
temporarily disabled and the engine fan will run after the
engine is turned off to protect the engine. These condi-
tions are under high load and high temperature condi-
tions.
