Driving FUEL SAVING TIPS INSTRUCTIONS TO IMPROVE FUEL ECONOMY :

Always Maintain a Clean Engine Air-Filter :

Your vehicle's fuel economy is mainly dependent on your style of driving. To operate your vehicle as economically as possible, use the following driving suggestions.

The amount of air supplied will reduce due to clogged air-filter, resulting in wastage of fuel due to incomplete combustion.

Avoid Excessive Idling : Stop the engine and start it again, if you have to wait for more than a minute while you are stopped. Avoid Fast Starts Unnecessary Stops :

and

Start off slowly from traffic lights or stop signs to prevent increased fuel consumption and shortening of engine life. Avoid unnecessary deceleration (stopping or slowing down) and then accelerating which uses more fuel. 60

Avoid Incorrect Tyre Pressures : Under-inflated tyres result in increased running resistance of the tyres, leading to wastage of fuel. (Refer tyre maintenance section) Proper Driving Practices : Keep a safe distance from other vehicles to avoid braking suddenly. NOTICE Do not rest your foot on the clutch pedal. It does not allow full engine power to be transmitted to the vehicle and reduces clutch life.

Driving GEAR SHIFTING (4X4) 2H - Rear wheel drive 4H - Four wheel drive (High) 4L - Four wheel drive (Low) Transfer Case (for 4 x 4 vehicles) Transfer case allows driver to select 2 or 4 wheel drive operation. Your vehicle is fitted with 2 speed, part time electric transfer case. Transfer Case Selector Switch : This switch is electrically operated & mounted on dash board, and is provided with 3 selector positions. 2H- Only rear wheels are driven and transfer case operates at 1:1 ratio. 4H- All four wheels are driven and transfer case operates at 1:1 ratio. 4L- All four wheels are driven and transfer case operates at 2.48:1 speed reduction ratio.

Automatic Hub Lock : When 4 wheel drive is selected, automatic hub locks axle shaft to wheel hub. This occurs when the vehicle driven in either forward or reverse direction. Limited Slip Differential : (4x4 version only) A standard differential delivers torque equally to each wheel. In case one wheel loses traction and begins to spin, the differential distributes rotary speed unequally

but with same torque. This can cause wheel with good traction to slow down or stop while the wheel which lost traction rotates with increased speed. Such a situation can prevent the vehicle from moving. Limited slip differential provided in the rear axle takes care of such situations. However during normal driving, differential action takes place in the same manner as in a standard differential. 1. Four Wheel Drive Operation In 2-H mode, only the rear two wheels of the vehicle are powered by the engine and the front wheels are merely pushed. By shifting to four wheel drive mode (4H or 4L) the rear as well as the front axles are driven by the engine through the transfer case and transmitting engine power to all four wheels. This gives the vehicle increased traction. In 4H mode, the 63

Driving GEAR SHIFTING (4X4) transmitted engine torque and vehicle speed remain the same as in 2H. However, when you shift to 4L mode, engine torque is multiplied and vehicle moves at low speed in the same gears with increased traction. 4L mode is provided for negotiating sharp gradients or driving through loose soil/sand. 2. Shifting from 2H to 4H : Shift selector switch mode from 2H to 4H. 4WD HI indicator will turn ON. Shifting is possible during driving. 3. Shifting from 4H to 2H : Shift selector switch mode from 4H to 2H. 4WD HI indicator light will turn OFF. Shifting is possible during driving.

64

Free Wheeling of Front Hub : After shifting from 4H to 2H, for effecting free wheeling of front wheels, direction of vehicle motion needs to be changed. If in 4H mode the vehicle was moving forward then stop it, wait and then engage reverse gear. (If it was moving reverse in 4H mode then stop it, wait and then engage forward gear of main gear box.) After stopping and changing the gear the vehicle must travel in opposite direction for a minimum of three meters, for free wheeling. 4. Shifting from 4H to 4L Q Q Q

Stop the vehicle in safe area. Press clutch pedal. Shift selector switch mode from 4H to 4L. 4WD LO indicator light will turn ON.

5. Shifting from 4L to 4H Q Stop the vehicle Q Press clutch pedal Q Shift selector switch mode from 4L to 4H. 4WD HI indicator light will turn ON. CAUTION Do not exceed the following speeds : 4H (4WD High Range) 100 km/ h. 4L (4WD Low Range) 40 Km/ h. CAUTION In case of malfunctioning in shifting from 4H to 4L or 4L to 4H, respectively 4L or 4H light will flash continuously. Do not march the vehicle in such cases.

Driving GEAR SHIFTING (4X4) NOTICE Four wheel drive facility is a powerful tool which enables the vehicle to traverse terrain which is otherwise inaccessible to two wheel drive vehicles. However, it must be used judiciously and carefully. Do not take unnecessary risks and attempt the impossible. Familiarise yourself thoroughly with the vehicle and its abilities before attempting serious off road driving.

Q

Q

WARNING Do not use 4H or 4L modes continuously on dry and hard surfaced road except for checking operation. It can cause extensive damage to transmission & tyres. With ignition ‘ON’ 4H & 4L indicator lamp on should glow for a few seconds only and then go off. Continuous illumination of 4L & 4H lamps indicates a fault in transfer case or in its electrical circuit.

65

Driving BRAKING Brakes : The brake system on this vehicle is an advanced vacuum assisted hydraulic brake system, equipped with: Q Brake booster : This assists the driver in braking with an ergonomic pedal force on brake pedal; Q Tandem Master Cylinder, for fail safe braking. Q Twin pot calipers, for efficient energy absorption. Q LCRV - Load Conscious Reducing Valve, to avoid rear wheel locking in extreme load condition. Q Auto adjusted rear brakes which are designed for trouble free performance. The system is designed with an H circuit, this has an advantage of providing minimum braking even if one circuit fails, however the pedal 66

will be harder to press and stopping distance will increase. At the same time brake indication light would glow on dash board. If you observe any abnormality with the in brake system your nearest TATA Motors authorized workshop. In case of failure of vacuum supply to the brake booster the vehicle can still be stopped with a higher pedal effort. In case of vacuum failure or brake circuit failure, slow down the vehicle by shifting to a lower gear and lifting your foot from the accelerator pedal. Pull to the side of the road as soon as it is safe. CAUTION Brake system failure is very hazardous. It is best to have your vehicle towed, but if you drive the vehicle in this condition, be extremely cautious. Have your vehicle attended to immediately.

Put your foot on brake pedal to apply brake. But do not ride the brakes as they may overheat and reduce efficiency and performance may be impaired. The brake lights may confuse the other road s behind you. Use the engine to assist the brakes by shifting to a lower gear and lifting your foot from accelerator pedal. Constant application of brakes while going down hill builds heat and reduces braking efficiency. Check your brakes after driving through deep water. Apply the brakes moderately to feel if they are normal. If not, apply them gently and frequently until they do. With wet brakes you should be extra cautious and alert in your driving.

Driving DRIVING IN ADVERSE CONDITIONS Driving Through Water :

Never venture to drive through water when it flows over guard rails. The engine may be seriously damaged, if attempting a deep water crossing. If the situation demands that you have to drive through water then; Q Keep engine in fast idling and crawl the vehicle in low gear. Q After driving through water apply brakes several times to dry liners and to regain original braking. Do not attempt to start the engine if vehicle gets flooded due to water increase.

Tow the vehicle to a safe place. Take the vehicle to nearest AUTHORISED Workshop to check for the entry of water into the cylinders. It will also be necessary to replace the lubricants of engine, gearbox, transfer case, front axle and rear axle if water has entered. Get the starter and alternator checked. Driving on a Rainy Day :

Check wiper blades for proper functioning. Avoid harsh braking and sharp turns. It may cause loss of control and lead to skidding. For slowing down, change to a lower gear and brake gently. Keep lights ON if visibility is poor. Night Driving :

Check brakes, steering and windows. Check tyres for wear and tyre pressure.

Dip the head lamps for oncoming traffic during night driving. Maintain a speed such that you can stop within illuminated distance of head lamps. 67

Driving DRIVING IN ADVERSE CONDITIONS Use side indicators for lane change or turning. Q Put on the hazard warning switch in cases of hazardous parking or if your vehicle is disabled to warn the ing traffic. Climbing Sharp Gradients on Loose Surfaces :

Select gear to suit gradient gear. Apply power smoothly so that there is no loss of traction by overrevving of the engine. Choose the smoothest as possible part of the slope and select the appropriate gear so that gear 68

changing in the middle of the climb is not required. Changing gears in the middle of the climb can cause loss of momentum and engine stalling. Shifting to lower gear has to be done cautiously to avoid loss of traction. Under no conditions should the vehicle be moved diagonally across a hill. The danger is in loss of traction and sideways slippage, possibly resulting in tipping over. If unavoidable, choose as mild an angle as possible and keep the vehicle moving. If the wheels start to slip within few feet of the end of the climb, motion can be maintained by swinging the steered wheels left and right, thereby providing increased grip. If the vehicle stalls or losses headway while climbing a steep hill, make a quick shift to reverse

and allow the vehicle to move back with the control of engine compression. Descending Sharp Gradients :

Depending on the severity of the gradient, shift into appropriate gear. Use engine braking judiciously without over-revving the engine. Brake application under such situations should be done very smoothly to avoid loss of control. Select appropriate gear so that gear changing or clutch disengagement is not involved while descending the gradient.

Incase of Emergency JACK LOCATION, WARNING TRIANGLE & FLAT TYRE REPLACEMENT Advance Warning Triangle :

2) Place the triangle on the road behind the vehicle. 3) The triangle must be at least 50 meters behind the vehicle in the same lane of traffic. 4) Increase the distance to 150 meters on a highway or if on the crest of a hill where it obscures the view. A bad / hill top obscures the view. If you have Flat Tyres :

There is an advanced warning triangle provided with your vehicle. In case there is a breakdown and the vehicle is parked at the side of the road, then the triangle is to be used as per instructions given below: 1) Remove advance warning triangle from case and assemble.

Tool and Jack - Single Cab 1. Jack handle 2. Jack

Vehicle Care WASHING & CLEANING Vehicle Care : The Vehicle is subjected to many external influences such as climate, road conditions, industrial pollution and proximity to the sea. These conditions demand regular care of the Vehicle body. Dirt, insects, bird droppings, oil, grease, fuel and stone chippings should be removed as soon as possible. Washing : Do not wash the Vehicle in direct sunlight, wash in shade. Spray the Vehicle thoroughly with a cold water jet (Vehicle on a washing pit or hoist). Mix Vehicle shampoo in the wash water. No solvent (fuel, thinner) need be used. NOTICE Avoid wiping of painted surface in dry condition as it may leave scratches on the painted surface.

Use a soft bristle brush, sponge or soft cloth and rinse it frequently while washing. When you have washed the whole exterior, dry it with a chamois or soft cloth. After drying the Vehicle, inspect it for chips and scratches that could allow corrosion to start. Apply touch up paint where necessary. NOTICE Interiors of the Engine compartment cleaning with high pressure water should be avoided. For Vehicles With Rear View Camera : Use cover for camera during washing. Polishes : Polishes and cleaners can restore shine to the painted surface that has oxidised and become dull. They normally contain mild abrasives and

solvents that remove the top layer of the finish coat. Polish your Vehicle, 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. Cleaning of Windows, Front & Rear Glasses : Clean the windows inside and outside with commercially available glass cleaners.

Always use a genuine air filter element. The air filter is located on the LH side of the engine compartment. a) When a vehicle is driven under dusty conditions, frequent 92

cleaning and replacement of the air-cleaner element is necessary. b) Clogged air-cleaners lead to greater intake resistance and result in increased fuel consumption. Using low pressure compressed air, blow off dust on the air cleaner element. If the air cleaner element appears to be choked, replace it with a new one.

Engine Oil Level Checking :

1. Engine Oil Filling Cap 2. Dip Stick

Warm up the engine to normal operating temperature. Turn it off and wait 5 minutes for the oil to return to the oil pan Be sure the Vehicle is on a level surface. Pull out the dipstick, wipe it clean, and reinsert if fully. Pull it out again and examine the oil level. It should be between ‘Min’ & ‘Max’ level. If not, top up with recommended engine oil.

Maintenance ENGINE COOLANT & BRAKE FLUID Engine Coolant Level :

1. Engine Coolant Filling Cap 2. Radiator Cap

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.

WARNING Do not remove radiator cap when engine is hot. It may cause serious injury.

Brake Fluid Level :

CAUTION Do not start the engine without oil in the power steering system.

Maintenance LOAD CONSCIOUS PRESSURE REDUCING VALVE Load Conscious Pressure Reducing Valve (LCRV) : A LCRV is required in the brake system during severe braking. That time, most of the car weight is transferred to the front, and the front brakes do most of the braking. The rear wheels are left with but little traction and in this condition, under high pressure, they have a tendency to skid. The valve is installed in the line to the rear brake drum. During heavy braking the valves limits the pressure to the rear wheels & this allows rear wheels to keep turning instead of locking up and skidding. If any alteration is done in Rear suspension the performance of this valve will be impaired. The valve stem gap should be adjusted whenever rear spring is changed.

Water Draining from Sedimenter

The water sedimenter is part of the fuel filtration system, fitted to the chassis frame, near fuel tank below the vehicle. It is used in the fuel supplying system in order to reduce the water content in the fuel provided to the DICOR system. A water sensor is fitted to the water sedimenter in order to indicate to the driver that the sedimenter has to be drained. Whenever water in fuel sedimenter indicator glows in instrument cluster, the water need

to be drained from the sedimenter. Water drain operation to be done on sedimenter. Procedure : 1 Stop the engine, and wait until pressure stabilizes. 2 Unclip one of the hydraulic connections (either inlet or outlet) and the electric connector of the water sensor. 3 Place a container underneath the water sedimenter. 4 Unscrew the water sensor about 2-3 turns. 5 Wait until all the water has drained out of the water sedimenter. 6 As soon as the flow is free of water, screw the water sensor to the required torque. 7 Clip the hydraulic connector and the electric connector to the water sensor. 8. Use hand primer / Pear pump to refill the line before restarting.

Maintenance FUEL FILTERS & PRIMING / PEAR PUMP Fuel Filters :

Priming Pump / Pear Pump :

Fuel Filter

Priming / Pear Pump

Fuel filter separates dust particles from the fuel & allows clean fuel in to the common rail system. It also separates & stores water.

This is used for priming the fuel manually after overhauling of the engine or after refitment of fuel lines or after changing either fuel filter or sedimenter Pump, by means of priming pump / pear pump until all air in the fuel line removed. Before cranking the engine ensure that there is no air in the fuel system.

NOTICE Do not loosen the HP lines of DICOR system for bleeding the air from fuel system.

97

Maintenance WINDSHIELD WASHER & TYRES Windshield Washer :

Tyres :

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, tyre life and better fuel efficiency.

Windshield washer fluid container is located behind the front right hand side and its filler neck is provided near auxiliary tank in the engine compartment. NOTICE Do not add detergent or any solvent in the windshield washing water.

1. Under inflation Excessive Side Tread Wear 2. Correct Tyre Pressure Uniform Tyre Wear 3. Over inflation Excessive Centre Tread Wear

Check for inflation and condition of your car tyres periodically. Inflation : Check the pressure in the tyres when they are cold. You should have your own tyre pressure gauge and use it at all times. This makes it easier for you

98

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.

CAUTION Bumps or bulges in the tread or the side of the tyre. Replace the tyre if you find either of these conditions. Cuts, splits or cracks in the side of the tyre. Replace the tyre if you notice this on the fabric or cord. Excessive tread wear or non uniform tyre wear.

Repairing a Tyre/Tube : Mark the tyre position suitably (if original colour dot mark is not visible) with respect to valve stem hole to ensure that the tyre is refitted in the original location on the wheel rim. Ensure that balancing weights are not disturbed during removal of tyres.

loose, mark its location on the rim & refit properly. Balance the wheel after every dismantling and assembly of tyre on the wheel rim. While fitting wheels on the vehicle ensure that wheel pins are free from dust, scratches, dirt, dents, etc. Ensure the tube being replaced has the correct valve. NOTICE Do not apply any oil on the wheel pins. Wipe off the oil if present.

Check the balance weight prior to the removal of the tyre. If found 99

Maintenance CARE FOR TUBELESS TYRES & TYRE ROTATION Special Care for Tubeless Tyres : (if fitted) 1. While removing tyre from wheel rim and mounting it back on wheel rim, take precautions not to damage tyre bead. Use tyre removal and assembly machines. Damage or cut on tyre bead may cause gradual loss of air and deflation of tyre. 2. Do not scratch inside of tubeless tyre with metallic or sharp object. Tubeless tyres are coated with impermeable layer of rubber from inside which holds the air inside the tyre. Removal of this layer due to scratching may cause gradual loss of air and deflation. 3. If wheel rim gets damaged in service, get the wheel rim repaired/replaced immediately. Running the vehicle with damaged rim may cause deflation of tyre and subsequent dislodging of tyre from rim. 4. Maintain recommended inflation pressure. Overinflation, in particular, may cause puncture or bursting of tyre.

100

NOTICE Life and wear pattern of tyres depends on various parameters like tyre pressure, wheel alignment, wheel balancing, tyre rotation, etc. It also largely depends on vehicle speed, load carried, usage, driving habits, road conditions, tyre quality, etc. In case fault is suspected to be due to poor quality of tyres, the same may be taken up with concerned tyre manufacturer. Tyre Rotation : To help increase tyre life and distribute wear more evenly you should have tyres rotated at specified intervals or earlier depending on the operation of vehicle. The illustrations shows how to rotate tyres when normal spare wheel is included in tyre rotation.

Maintenance WHEEL ALIGNMENT, BALANCING, CATALYTIC CONVERTER MAINTENANCE Wheel Alignment :

Wheel Balancing :

Care for the Catalytic Converter

Incorrect wheel alignment causes excessive and uneven tyre wear. Check wheel alignment at specified intervals. Wheel alignment values are given below :

Wheels of your vehicle are balanced for better ride comfort and longer tyre life. Balancing needs to be done whenever tyre is removed from rim. 1. Permissible imbalance for tyre with rim = 250 gm-cm max. 2. Total balance weight should be within 140 gms on each side. 3. Relocate the tyre if the weight required to balance is more than 140 gms. 4. Balance weights are available from 10 gms to 140 gms in steps of every 10 gms and from 15 gms to 135 gms in steps of every 10 gms. 5. Do not use more than one balance weight on one side.

The catalytic Converter does not require any special maintenance however, following precaution should be taken for the effective functioning of the converter and to avoid damage to the Converter.

Caster :

On vehicles with torsion bar suspension, wheel alignment needs to be checked only after adjusting chassis height as per procedure. Chassis height for 16 inch tyre is 510 ± 3 mm Check and maintain tyre pressure periodically to obtain longer tyre life.

Q

It is mandatory to use Diesel fuel with sulphur content less than 0.035 %. Use of any other diesel fuel can increase the pollutants. CAUTION Avoid parking the vehicle over inflammable materials, such as dry leaves, grass etc., as the exhaust system is hot enough to initiate ‘FIRE’.

101

Maintenance BATTERY Battery :

3. When this stops wash it off with plain water. Dry off the battery with a cloth or paper towel. 4. Coat the terminal with petroleum jelly to prevent future corrosion. Use a proper spanner to loosen and remove cables from the terminals.

Check the battery for proper electrolyte level and corrosion on the terminals. 1. Check the battery for electrolyte level against the marking on the battery outer case. 2. Check the battery terminals for corrosion (a white or yellowish powder). To remove it, cover the terminals with a solution of baking soda. It will bubble up and turn brown. 102

Always disconnect the negative (-ve) cable first and reconnect it last. Clean the battery terminals with a terminal cleaning tool or wire brush. Reconnect and tighten the cables, coat the terminals with petroleum jelly. Ensure that battery is securely mounted. If you need to connect the battery to a charger, disconnect both cables to prevent damage to the vehicle’s electrical system.

NOTICE During normal operation, the battery generates gas which is explosive in nature, a spark or open flame can cause the battery to explode causing very serious injuries. Keep all sparks & open flames and smoking materials away from the battery. Getting electrolyte in your eyes or on the skin can cause severe burns. Wear protective clothing and a face shield or have a skilled technician to do the battery maintenance. The battery contains sulphuric acid (electrolyte) which is poisonous and highly corrosive in nature.

WARNING Do not mix gasoline or alcohol with diesel. This mixture can cause an explosion. NOTICE Where an oxidation catalytic converter is fitted, it is mandatory to use Diesel fuel with sulphur contents as under. Use of any other diesel fuel can increase the pollutants. Sulphur Content : (0.005% BS-III)

CAUTION Due to the precise tolerance of diesel injection systems, it is extremely important that the fuel be kept clean and free from dirt or water. Dirt or water in the system can cause severe damage to Dicor system. Do not add fuel additives with diesel. Use low sulphur content fuel having a cloud point that is at least 10 degrees below the lowest expected fuel temperature. Cloud point is the temperature at which wax crystals begin to form in diesel. Viscosity of the fuel must be kept above 1.0 centistoke to provide adequate fuel system lubrication at 400C.
