ENGINE SHUTDOWN
Before shutting down an engine that has reached operating

hottest engine components to dissipate some of their internal
heat.
Idling is recommended, if an engine has been running at
maximum horsepower.
ENGINE WARNING PROTECTION SYSTEM (EWPS)
The Engine Warning Protection System (EWPS) warns the
operator of engine conditions that can damage the engine.
Optional engine shutdown is available and is activated if one or

The Standard Warning System is the base system in which
all engines are equipped. If one of these faults are detected,
the ECM will illuminate the STOP ENGINE lamp and set a
corresponding Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC).
