SAFETY01 SEAT BELTS

SEAT BELTS:

Seat-belt is a safety device designedto secure the occupant of the vehicle.Use of seat-belt reduces the chanceof injury and severity of injury in caseof an accident. TATA MOTORSstrongly recommends that all theoccupants should always wear seat-belts while travelling, irrespective ofjourney duration.

Your vehicle is equipped with seatbelts, for front and rear seats as a partof occupant restraint system.

WARNINGBe sure everyone in your vehicle isseated and using a seat beltproperly.

In normal driving, the belt lets youmove freely in your seat. In case of anaccident or sudden braking, inertia reelautomatically tightens the belt to helprestrain your body.

This vehicle has front and rear seatbelts in the out board positions and alap belt for middle passenger on rearseat. The lap belt has a manually ad-justed belt that fits across the hip bone.Make sure that your seat is adjustedto a good driving position and the backof the seat is upright.

Importance of Wearing Seat Belt :

1. It will help to keep you in the properposition when the air bag inflates.

2. Reduces the risk of harm in rollover,side or rear impact collisions

3. Reduces the risk of harm infrontal/angular collisions that arenot enough to activate the air bag.

4. Reduces the risk of being throwninside the vehicle in case of acollision.

NOTEDo not bleach or dye seat belts asthis may severely weaken them. Ina crash they may not be able toprovide adequate protection. Clean-ing should be carried out using mildsoap and water only.

WARNINGMake sure that the seat belts arenot twisted which can cause injuryin a collision as the full width of thebelt isn’t available to absorb theimpact. This puts more force on thebones beneath the belt, which couldcause serious injury.

The maximum protection which seatbelts can offer is only achieved if youare correctly seated. The seat backshould not be tilted too far back.

11

SAFETY 01SEAT BELTS

How to use seat belts: 1. Pull the belt tongue across yourbody and insert it into the buckle.

2. Check and ensure that the belt isnot twisted.

3. Position the lap portion of the beltas low as possible across your hipbone.

4. Pull up the shoulder part of the beltto remove the slack. Make sure thatthe belt goes over your collar bonesand across chest.

5. To unlatch the belt, press the redbutton on the buckle. Guide the beltto the pillar as it retracts.

WARNING1. The belts are intended for adult

occupants only.

2. Each belt should be used by oneoccupant only. The belt must notbe put round a child, seated onpassengers lap.

3. Use approved child restraintsystem for children

4. If the belt was in use in a seriousaccident or shows signs of severefraying / damage or of having beencut, replace it with an approvedbelt kit.

5. The belt must not be altered ormodified during use and if requiredto be replaced, then it should bereplaced, by TATA MOTORSAuthorized Service Centre only.

SAFETY01 SEAT BELTS

Lap belt:

Pull the belt tongue to the desiredlength. Insert it into the buckle untilyou hear a click.

Adjust the belt length. To lengthen thebelt, hold the tongue at a right angleto the webbing and pull. To shorten,pull the loose end of the webbing. Tounfasten, depress the button in thebuckle.

WARNINGPositioning the lap portion of theSeat Belt too high can be danger-ous as in a collision; this wouldconcentrate the impact force directlyon the abdominal area, causingserious injury. Wear the lap portionof the belt snugly and as low aspossible.

Pregnant Woman:

A pregnant woman should wear a Lap-shoulder belt and the lap portion shouldbe worn as low as possible, below thewomb, throughout the pregnancy.When a safety belt is worn properly, itis more likely that the foetus will notbe hurt in a crash. Pregnant womenshould wear the lap part of the beltacross the thighs and as snug acrossthe hips as possible. Keep the belt lowso that it does not come across theabdomen. By doing this, the strongstructure of the hips will take the forceif there is a collision.

13

• Never leave children or adults whowould normally require thesupport of others alone in thevehicle.

On hot, sunny days, tempera-tures in a closed vehicle couldquickly become high enough tocause severe or possibly fatalinjuries to occupants.

• Do not use the recirculation modefor longer periods as “stale” airmay result in fatigue in the driverand occupants, divert yourattention and also cause thewindows to mist up. Switch to“Fresh” air mode as soon as thewindows begin misting up.

• Do not adjust the heating and airconditioning controls while drivingso that full attention may be givento vehicle operation.

NOTE• Condensation starts inside the air

conditioning unit when the airconditioner is running, and issafely discharged underneathyour vehicle. Traces of water onthe ground are therefore normal.

• After parking in the sun, drive for2 or 3 minutes with the windowsopen to vent hot air from thepassenger compartment. Then,close the windows. This allowsthe air conditioner to cool theinterior more quickly.

• The air conditioning systemshould be operated for approx.10 minutes at least once a month.This helps prevent damage to thesystem due to lack of lubrication.

SAFETY CHECKS

Windshield/wiper/windshieldwasher

Always keep windshield glass cleanto avoid any distortion in visibility.Ensure proper working of wipers andcondition of wiper blade. Ensure thatwindshield washer reservoir is full. Donot operate wiper alone when thewindshield glass is dry, this woulddamage the windshield and wiperblades.

Headlights

Keep headlight lenses clean. Checkfor operation of headlamps in both high/low beam condition. Check for correctfocusing of headlamps. Use onlyrecommended type of bulbs. Do notuse the high beam unless it isnecessary, as its dazzle may blind thedriver of an oncoming vehicle, thuscausing an accident.

Side indicators / Hazard warning

Ensure that all side indicators/hazard warning lights are always inworking condition and they are usedwhen required.

Horn

Ensure the horn is working properly.Horn provides safety to other roadusers by alerting your presence.

Brakes

Ensure brakes are working properly.Check brake fluid level in reservoir. Donot drive the vehicle when brakewarning lamp is 'ON'.

Tyres

Check the condition of tyres forabnormal wear. Maintain correcttyre pressure, it is very importantparticularly when subjected to extremeconditions, such as high speed, highload and high outside temperature. Donot use worn or bald tyres, especiallyon the front wheels.

First Aid Kit

A first aid kit is provided in your vehicle.This is for use in case of minor injuries.It should be regularly checked andupdated.

Documents

Always carry vehicle registration papers,insurance, valid PUC certificate anddriving licence with you.

FUEL SAVING TIPS STARTING & DRIVING 06FUEL SAVING TIPS :

Your vehicle's fuel economy is mainlydependent on your style of driving.

To operate your vehicle aseconomically as possible, use thefollowing driving suggestions.

Avoid Excessive Idling :

Stop the engine and start it again, ifyou have to wait for more than a minute.e.g. at traffic signals.

Avoid fast starts and unnecessarystops :

Start off slowly from traffic lights or stopsigns to prevent increased fuelconsumption and shortening of enginelife. Avoid unnecessary deceleration(stopping or slowing down) and thenacceleration which uses more fuel.

Always maintain clean air-filter:

The amount of air supplied will reducedue to clogged air-filter, resulting inwastage of fuel due to incompletecombustion.

Avoid incorrect tyre pressure :

Under-inflated tyres result in increasedrunning resistance of the tyres, leadingto wastage of fuel.

(Refer tyre maintenance section)

Proper Driving Practices :

Keep a safe distance from othervehicles to avoid braking suddenly.

NOTEDo not rest your foot on the clutchpedal. It does not allow full enginepower to be transmitted to thevehicle and reduces clutch life.

50

GOOD DRIVING PRACTICES & RUNNING-IN PERIODSTARTING & DRIVING06GOOD DRIVING PRACTICES:

• Gear shifting should be gradualaccording to varying speeds. Avoidrapid acceleration and prolongedhigh speed running of the enginewhile using the new vehicle for thefirst 1500-1800 km of operation.

• Slow down before shifting to a lowergear. This will help for avoiding rev-ving of the engine causing damage.

• Avoid frequent brake applicationwhich can cause overheating ofbrakes.

• Slower the vehicle speed whiletravelling in cross winds. This givesmuch better control over thevehicle.

• Avoid high speed when corneringor turning.

• Make sure that vehicle is com-pletely stationary before you at-tempt to shift in reverse gear. Thiswill avoid damage to the transaxle.

• Drive slowly on wet roads.

When the vehicle leaves the roadway,do not steer sharply. Slow downslightly before pulling back into thetravel lanes.

RUNNING-IN PERIOD :

Avoid rapid acceleration and prolongedhigh speed running of the engine whileusing the new vehicle for the first 1500-1800 km of operation.

Do not exceed the following roadspeeds during running in period.

Minimum Maximum

Gear Duration Speed(Min) (kmph)

1st - 20

2nd 15 35

3rd 25 55

4th 35 75

5th 45 95

Before you shift to reverse gear, bringyour vehicle to a complete stop anddepress the clutch pedal fully.

Do not shift into reverse gear when thevehicle is moving forward.

While shifting the gears, it isrecommended to shift at the speedsgiven in the table.

You can get extra braking from theengine when slowing down by shiftingto a lower gear.

This can help you to maintain a safespeed and prevent your brakes fromoverheating while going down a steephill.

NOTEAvoid excessive revving up ofengine rpm.

Idling the engine for long durationmust be avoided.

BRAKES & BRAKINGSTARTING & DRIVING06BRAKES & BRAKING:

The brake system on your vehicle isan advanced dual circuit, diagonal splitvacuum assisted hydraulic brakesystem.

WARNINGNever use the brake pedal as afootrest. Never depress the brakepedal and the accelerator pedal atthe same time.

Water on brake discs and brakepads affects braking:

Driving in rain and slush or in a vehiclewash can cause water to collect onthe brake discs and pads. This willcause a delay in braking effect whenthe pedal is pressed. To avoid such adelay when the brakes are needed,depress the pedal occasionally whendriving through rain, slush etc.

This will remove the water from thebrakes. Check that brake applicationfeels normal. This should also be done

after washing or starting in very dampor cold weather.

Severe strain on the brake system:

The brakes will be subject to severestrain when driving in mountains orhilly areas, or when towing. Vehiclespeed is usually slower, which meansthat the cooling of the brakes is lessefficient than when driving on levelroads. To reduce the strain on thebrakes, shift into a lower gear and letthe engine help with the braking. Donot forget that, if you are towing, thebrakes will be subjected to a greaterthan normal load.

WARNINGIf you shift gear down on a slipperyroad surface in an attempt toincrease the engine's braking effect,the wheels could lose their grip. Thismay lead to increased danger ofskidding and accidents. Do not shiftdown for additional engine brakingon a slippery road surface.

NOTEApply the parking brake properlybefore leaving the vehicle and releaseit before moving.

59

STOPPING THE ENGINE & VEHICLE PARKING STARTING & DRIVING 06has dropped to zero. This will leadto premature turbocharger bearingwear.

NOTEIf the engine fails to start, try torestart the engine after few minutes.Continuous cranking will causedamage to the starter motor. If theengine fails to start, Contact TATAMOTORS Authorized ServiceCentre.

VEHICLE PARKING:

• Park the vehicle in a safe place.Switch on the indicator signalbefore turning to park.

• Apply the parking brake.

• Ensure that all window glasses areclosed and all lamps are turned‘OFF’.

• At night, put on the parking lightsif required.

• Remove the key from the ignitionswitch.

• Place wheel chocks at the wheelsif parked on a slope.

NOTEWhen parking on a downhillgradient, place the gear lever in‘Reverse’ position. While parking onuphill gradient, place the gear leverin the ‘1st’ position.

STOPPING THE ENGINE:

Before switching off the engine, run theengine in idle condition for at least 30seconds and then switch off. This willallow the engine oil to lubricate theturbocharger, till its speed is fullyreduced and also allow the unit to cooldown.

WARNINGA quick burst on the acceleleratorbefore turning off the engine servesabsolutely no practical purpose, itwastes fuel and is damagingespecially to turbocharged engine.

The above precautions will ensuresatisfactory life and performance fromthe turbocharger, till its speed is fullyreduced and also allow the unit to cooldown.

WARNINGDo not switch the engine off when itis running at high speed. If you do,the turbocharger will continuerunning after the engine oil pressure

Keeping the tyres properly inflatedgives you the best combination of ridingcomfort, handling, tyre life and betterfuel efficiency.

Over inflation of tyres makes the vehicleride bumpy and harsh. Tyres are moreprone to uneven wear and damage fromroad hazards.

Under inflated tyres reduce yourcomfort in vehicle handling and areprone to failures due to hightemperature. They also cause unevenwear and more fuel consumption.

TYRES MAINTENANCE & SERVICING 08cause deflation of tyre andsubsequent dislodging of tyre fromrim.

4. Maintain recommended inflationpressure. Over-inflation, inparticular, may cause puncture orbursting of tyre.

NOTE

Life and wear pattern of tyresdepends on various parameters liketyre pressure, wheel alignment,wheel balancing, tyre rotation, etc.It also largely depends on vehiclespeed, load carried, usage, drivinghabits, road conditions, tyre quality,etc. In case fault is suspected tobe due to poor quality of tyres, thesame may be taken up withconcerned tyre manufacturer.

Tyre Rotation :• Replace tyre if excessive treadwear or non uniform tyre wear isnoticed.

Special care for tubeless tyres :

1. While removing tyre from wheel rimand mounting it back on wheel rim,take precautions not to damagetyre bead. Use tyre removal andassembly machines. Damage orcut on tyre bead may causegradual loss of air and deflation oftyre.

2. Do not scratch inside of tubelesstyre with metallic or sharp object.Tubeless tyres are coated withimpermeable layer of rubber frominside which holds the air insidethe tyre. Removal of this layer dueto scratching may cause gradualloss of air and deflation.

3. If wheel rim gets damaged inservice, get the wheel rim repaired/replaced immediately. Running thevehicle with damaged rim may

TYRESMAINTENANCE & SERVICING08To help increase tyre life and distributewear more evenly you should havetyres rotated at specified intervals orearlier depending on the operation ofvehicle.

The illustrations shows how to rotatetyres when normal spare wheel isincluded in tyre rotation.

Wheel Alignment :

Incorrect wheel alignment causesexcessive and uneven tyre wear.Check wheel alignment at specifiedintervals.

Wheel Balancing :

Wheels of your vehicle are balancedfor better ride comfort and longer tyrelife. Balancing needs to be donewhenever tyre is removed from rim.

1. Permissible imbalance for tyre withrim = 250 gm-cm max.

2. Total balance weight should bewithin 140 gms on each side.

3. Relocate the tyre if the weightrequired to balance is more than140 gm.

4. Balance weights are available from10 gms to 140 gms in steps ofevery 10 gms and from 15 gms to135 gms in steps of every 10 gms.

5. Do not use more than one balanceweight on one side.

FUEL SPECIFICATION TECHNICAL INFORMATION 09FUEL (DIESEL) : Normal grade compliant diesel conform-ing to IS1460 or EN 590 or equivalent is recommended tobe used as fuel. Do not use premium diesels available inthe market for example extra premium / Turbojet etc.

At very low temperature, fluidity of diesel may becomeinsufficient due to paraffin separation. It is therefore neces-sary to mix supplementary fuel with summer or winter gradediesel. The supplementary fuel to be used is kerosene oraviation turbine fuel. Ratio for mixing of supplementary fueland diesel are shown in the table.

Ambient PercentageTemperature Summer grade Supplementaryupto Deg C. diesel fuelUpto 0 100 0

0 to -10 70 30-10 to -15 50 50

Ambient PercentageTemperature Winter grade Supplementaryupto Deg C. diesel fuelUpto -15 100 0-15 to -20 70 30-20 and below 50 50

Care should be taken that diesel and supplementary fuelare thoroughly mixed before filling.

WARNINGDo not mix gasoline or alcohol with diesel. This mixturecan cause an explosion.

NOTE

Where oxidation catalytic converter is fitted. It ismandatory to use Diesel fuel with sulphur contents asunder. Use of any other diesel fuel can increase thepollutants.

Sulphur Content : 0.035% (BS-IV) / 0.05% (BS-III)

NOTE

Due to precise tolerance of diesel injection systems. Itis extremely important that the fuel be kept clean andfree of dirt or water. Dirt or water in the system can causesevere damage to Common Rail system

Do not add fuel additives with diesel.

Use low sulphur content fuel having a cloud point that is atleast 10 degree below the lowest expected fuel temperatureat which wax crystals begin to form in diesel.

Viscosity of the fuel must be kept above 1.0 centistokes toprovided adequate fuel system lubrication at 400C.
