CAUTION:
Do not race the engine during
the warm up period, as it could
be detrimental to the engine.
5. On vehicles with a cold start
feature, place the cold start switch
to "OFF" after the engine speed
has increased.
6. Slowly release the accelerator
pedal and turn the fuel button in
the direction of "H" to set the en鄄
gine speed slightly higher than the
idling speed. Allow the engine to
warm up for over five minutes until
the coolant temperature is raised.
Engine warm up is required for
circulating oil throughout the en鄄
gine and raising coolant tempera鄄
ture for proper combustion.
7 . During the warm up operation,
check to ensure that the gauges and
meters are performing properly.
8. After the engine warm up opera鄄
tion is over turn the fuel button in
the direction of "L" until the engine
runs smoothly at idle speed. For
the idle speed, see section 域.
STARTING AND STOPPING THE
ENGINE FOR TURBO CHARGER
1. Do not race the engine or sud鄄
den accelerate the engine immedi鄄
ately after start it. If the engine is
cold, allow the engine to idle for
several seconds before it is driven
to ensure sufficient lubrication of
the turbo charger unit.
2. After high speed or extended
driving, requiring a heavy engine
load, the engine should be allowed
to idle, as shown in the chart below,
before turning it off. This idle time will
allow the turbo charger to cool prior
to shutting the engine off.
