Operation
Engine Shutdown
NOTE: For additional information, see Engine Operation
and Maintenance Manual.
Idle the engine for 3 - 5 minutes before shutting down. This
few minutes of idling allows the lubricating oil and water to carry
heat away from components heat-soaked by hot combustion /
exhaust gases.
The larger the engine, the greater the need for this idling period.
This will help avoid damage to turbocharger seals or like features
of an engine which, after shutdown, will no longer be cooled by
the circulation of oil and coolant.
1.
Place the transmission in the Neutral position.
2.
Apply the parking brake.
3.
Turn off the headlights and all accessories.
4.
Idle a hot engine for 2 - 5 minutes to allow the
turbocharger to cool.
5.
Rotate the key counterclockwise to the OFF position,
and remove key from the ignition switch.
