  1. With the vehicle stopped, set the parking brake and place the transmission in neutral.

    2. Notice: Idle the engine one to two minutes before shutting it down. After hard operation, shutting down the engine without idling may cause damage to the turbocharger.

  2. Allow the engine to idle one to two minutes before shutting it down. This allows the lubricating oil and the coolant to carry heat away from the combustion chambers, bearings, shafts, and seals.

    3. Notice: Except in an emergency, do not shut down the engine when the coolant temperature is above 194°F (90°C). To do so could damage the engine.

  3. Turn off the ignition switch and shut down the engine.
