TURBOCHARGER PROTECTION FUNCTION
Since the turbocharger is a device that rotates at a very high speed, seizure results if it is not lubricated well.
In order to protect above trouble, the turbo protect function restricts increase of the engine speed immediately
after the engine is started until its oil pressure reaches an appropriate level.
• While the turbo protect function is operating, increase of the engine speed is restricted even if the accelera-
tor pedal is depressed.
• The turbo protect function operates for up to 20 seconds.
