high engine rpm for extended periods of
time.

Driving Tips
Turbocharger Information (SKYACTIV-D 1.5)
CAUTION
  After driving at freeway speeds or up a long hill, idle the engine at least 30 seconds
before stopping it. Otherwise, the turbocharger could be damaged. However, when
i-stop operates, idling is unnecessary.
  Racing or over-revving the engine, particularly after it's just been started, can damage
the turbocharger.
  To protect the engine from damage, the engine is designed so that it cannot be raced
just after starting it in extremely cold weather.
The turbocharger greatly enhances engine power. Its advanced design provides improved
operation and requires minimum maintenance.

To get the most from it, observe the following.

1. Change engine oil and ¿ lter according to Scheduled Maintenance (page 6-3 ).
2. Use only recommended engine oil (page 6-23 ). Extra additives are NOT
recommended.

*2 If the vehicle is operated in very dusty or sandy areas, clean and if necessary, replace the air ¿ lter more often
than the recommended intervals.
*3 Implement the fuel injection amount correction.
*4 Also inspect the air conditioner drive belts, if installed.
If the vehicle is operated primarily under any of the following conditions, inspect the drive belts at every
20,000 km (12,500 miles) or 12 months.

a) Purpose of vehicle use is police car, taxi or driving school car.
b) Driving in dusty conditions
c) Extended periods of idling or low speed operation
Once the À exible maintenance is selected, the vehicle calculates the remaining oil life based on engine
operating conditions and lets you know when an oil change is due by illuminating the wrench indicator light in
the instrument cluster.
Reset the engine oil data whenever replacing the engine oil regardless of the message/wrench indicator light
display.
*6 If the vehicle is operated primarily under any of the following conditions, replace the engine oil and oil ¿ lter at
