STARTING & DRIVING Engine Coolant Level & Brake Fluid Level
Engine Coolant Level : The coolant level is visible through the translucent reservoir. It should be between max. & min. marks. If it seems less, add premixed coolant into the auxiliary tank upto the max. mark. Put the cap back properly. CAUTION Never remove the filler cap when the engine is hot. Use only branded premixed ready to use coolant. In case of an emergency, normal water can be used, but the system should be flushed & filled with proper coolant mixture at the earliest. Brake Fluid Level : The level of the brake fluid must be between the min. & max. marks on the side of the brake fluid container. If the level falls below the min. mark, add recommended brake fluid. (Refer chapter - Fuels, coolants & lubricants) In case of spongy or hard pedal or low brake efficiency, please contact the nearest Authorised Service outlet. CAUTION 1. Do not allow brake fluid to make contact with the skin or eyes. 2. Do not allow brake fluid to splash or spill on the paint surface as it will damage the paint. In case of spillage, wipe it off immediately. 57

Check wiper blades for proper functioning. Check brakes, steering and windows. Check tyres for wear and tyre pressure. Worn out tyres are unsafe
on wet roads. Avoid harsh braking and sharp turns. It may cause loss of steering control and lead to the car skidding. For slowing down, shift to lower gears and apply brakes gently. Keep lights on if visibility is poor. Use heater and demister if required to clear off mist on the windshield.
Night Driving :
Dip the head lamp for oncoming traffic during night driving. Maintain a speed such that you can stop within illuminated
distance of the head lamps. Use head lamp main/dip beam to alert other users on turns/cross roads, etc. Use side indicators to indicate lane change or turning. Put on the hazard warning switch in case of hazardous parking or if your car is disabled to warn passing traffic. Put on the fog lamps (for Deluxe version) if required. 65

For towing a car, the best way is to use a wrecker. Alternatively use a rigid tow bar. Avoid using a flexible cable or rope as your car may crash into
the car towing your car when it stops suddenly. Switch ON the hazard warning signals of both the cars to warn other road users. Where possible, keep the engine idling so that power steering assistance and brake vacuum are available. Limit the speed to 20-30 kmph. In case of brake failure, use the parking brake to control the car.
Boltable tow hook is provided in the toolkit. Remove cover on rear bumper Bolt the tow hook (ensure proper fitment). Whenever tow hook is not required unscrew the tow hook and keep it in toolkit. Press the cover to close the hole for tow hook in rear bumper.

Tyres : Check for inflation and condition of your car tyres periodically. Inflation : Check the pressure in the tyres when they are cold. Refer to the tyre information label fitted on the driver side doorpost for correct cold tyre pressure. Recommended Tyre Pressures : (with cold tyres) Front/Rear 26 PSI (1.8 bar) You should have your own tyre pressure gauge and use it at all times. This makes it easier for you to tell if pressure loss is caused by a tyre problem and not by variation between gauges. Keeping the tyres properly inflated gives you the best combination of riding comfort, handling and tyre life. Over inflation of tyres makes the car ride bumpy and harsh. Tyres are more prone to uneven wear and damage from road hazards. Under inflated tyres reduce your comfort in car handling and are prone to failures due to high temperature. They also cause uneven wear and more fuel consumption. Inspection : CAUTION Every time you check inflation pressure, you should also examine tyres for leakage, damage, foreign objects & wear. 100

coat. Polish your car if the finish does not regain its original shine after using wax. Cleaning of Carpets : Vacuum clean the carpet regularly to remove dirt. Dirt will make the carpet wear out faster. Periodically shampoo the carpet to keep it looking new. Use carpet cleaners (preferably foam type). Follow the instructions that come with the cleaner, applying it with a sponge or soft brush. Keep the carpeting as dry as possible by not adding water to the foam.

PROPER PARKING : Always park your car in shade to protect it from harsh sunlight or in a well-ventilated garage so that there is no dampness on any part of the car. WASHING YOUR CAR : Follow these tips while washing your car. HAND WASH : 1. Always wash your car in shade and when the surface is at room temperature. 2. Wash with mild car wash soap like "Car Shampoo" and use a soft 100% cotton cloth to avoid scratches. Please take help of your dealer to buy the right products. 3. Please be sure that you remove your wristwatch and wear soft gloves to avoid scratches due to finger rings or nails. 4. To remove stubborn stains and contaminants like tar, use turpentine or cleaners like "Stain Remover" which is safe for painted surfaces. Again your dealer can help you in selecting the right product. 5. Avoid substances like petrol, diesel, kerosene, benzene or other solvents that cause damage to paint. 6. Dry your vehicle thoroughly to prevent any damp spots. 7. Rinse all surfaces thoroughly to prevent any traces of soap and other cleaners as this may lead to the formation of stains on the painted surface later.
