as it is safe to do so and allow the engine to
cool down for about 10 minutes.

The engine may overheat if the vehicle
is overloaded. If this happens, reduce
the load to specification.
●
After restarting, make sure that the
warning light is out. Continuous use
while this warning light is on may
cause damage to the engine.
