Its advanced design provides improved operation and requires minimum additional maintenance. To get maximum performance from your turbocharged engine, take note of the following tips: l The turbocharged engine is designed for optimal operation with premium unleaded gasoline (page 4-2). Extra fuel additives are NOT recommended. l Change the engine oil and filter using the turbo engine interval outlined in the maintenance schedule (for your driving condition). l Use only the recommended engine oil (page 8-19). Extra oil additives are NOT recommended. l After driving at freeway speeds or up a long hill, idle the engine at least 30 seconds to cool the turbo before turning off the engine. Avoid simply shutting the engine off abruptly after a hard or long drive. Damage to the turbocharger may result. l Do not race or over-rev the engine when starting. This should not be done with ANY engine, especially not with one that's turbocharged. l Do not add any aftermarket devices to alter the engine's ignition timing, fuel delivery, or turbo boost pressure. This may lead to serious engine damage and may void your warranty. 4-14 í Some models. Form No.8AS7-EA-09E
