1) Cautions for DI Engine
This chapter describes the cautions for DI engine equipped vehicle. This includes the water separation
from engine, warning lights, symptoms when engine malfunctioning, causes and actions.
DI Engine 1.
Comparatively conventional diesel engines, DI engine controls the fuel injection and timing electrically,
delivers high power and reduces less emission..
System Safety Mode 2.
When a severe failure has been occurred in a vehicle, the system safety mode is activated to protect the
system. It reduces the driving force, restricts the engine speed (rpm) and stops engine operation. Refer
