Turbocharger Information (SKYACTIV-D 2.2)
CAUTION
After driving at freeway speeds or up a long hi ll, 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 de sign provides improved
operation and requires minimum maintenance.
To get the most from it, observe the following.
1. Change engine oil and filter according to Scheduled Maintenan ce (page 6-3).
2. Use only recommended engine oil (page 6-25). Extra additives are NOT recommended.

operating conditions and lets you know when an oil change is du e by illuminating the wrench indicator light in
the instrument cluster.
Reset the engine oil data wheneve r replacing the engine oil regardless of the message/wrench indicator light
display.
*4 If the vehicle is operated primarily under any of the followin g conditions, replace the engine oil and oil filter at
every 10,000 km (6,250 miles) or shorter.
