SAFETY
SEAT BELTS:
Seat-belt is a safety device designed
to secure the occupant of the vehicle.
Use of seat-belt reduces the chance
of injury and severity of injury in case
of an accident. TATA MOTRS strongly
recommends that all the occupants
should always wear seat-belts while
travelling, irrespective of journey
duration.
Your vehicle is equipped with seat
belts, for front and rear seats as a part
of occupant restraint system.
In normal driving, the belt lets you
move freely in your seat. In case of an
accident or sudden braking, inertia reel
automatically tightens the belt to help
restrain your body.
This vehicle has three point inertia reel
type for front and rear seat belts in the
out board positions and a lap belt for
middle passenger on rear seat.The
anchor end of the shoulder belt is
adjustable to suit the height of the
10
SEAT BELTS
passenger wearing it. The lap belt has
a manually adjusted belt that fits
across the hip bone. Make sure that
your seat is adjusted to a good driving
position and the back of the seat is
upright.
Importance of Wearing Seat Belt :
1. It will help to keep you in the proper
position when the air bag inflates.?
2. Reduces the risk of harm in rollover,
side or rear impact collisions
3. Reduces the risk of harm in frontal/angular collisions that are not
enough to activate the air bag.
4. Reduces the risk of being thrown
from your vehicle in a collision.
NOTE
Do not bleach or dye seat belts as
this may severely weaken them. In
a crash they may not be able to provide adequate protection. Cleaning
should be carried out using mild
soap and water only.
WARNINGS
Make sure that the seat belts are
not twisted which can cause injury
in a collision as the full width of the
belt isn’t available to absorb the
impact. This puts more force on the
bones beneath the belt, which could
cause serious injury.
The maximum protection which seat
belts can offer is only achieved if you
are correctly seated. The seat back
should not be tilted too far back.
SEAT BELTS
How to use seat belts:
1 LATCH
SAFETY
4. Pull up the shoulder part of the belt
to remove the slack. Make sure that
the belt goes over your collar bones
and across chest.
5. To unlatch the belt, press the red
button on the buckle. Guide the belt
to the pillar as it retracts.
2 UNLATCH
1. Pull the belt tongue across your
body and insert it into the buckle.
2. Check and ensure that the belt is
not twisted.
3. Position the lap portion of the belt
as low as possible across your hip
bone.
3. When the belt has been in use in
a serious accident or shows signs
of severe fraying / damage or of
having been cut, replace with an
approved belt kit.
4. The belt must not be altered or
modified during use and if required
to be replaced, then it should be
replaced, by TATA MOTORS
Authorized Service outlets only.
WARNINGS
1. The belts are meant (intended) for
adult occupants only.
2. Each belt should be used by one
occupant only. The belt must not
be put round a child, seated on
passengers lap.

SEAT BELTS
SAFETY
Lap belt:
Pull the tongue to the desired length.
Insert it into the buckle until you hear
a click.
Adjust the belt length. To lengthen the
belt, hold the tongue at a right angle
to the webbing and pull. To shorten,
pull the loose end of the webbing. To
unfasten, depress the button in the
buckle.
WARNING
Positioning the lap portion of the
Seat Belt too high can be dangerous as in a collision; this would concentrate the impact force directly on
the abdominal area, causing serious injury. Wear the lap portion of
the belt snugly and as low as
possible.
Pregnant Woman:
A pregnant woman should wear a Lapshoulder belt and the lap portion should
12
be worn as low as possible, below the
rounding, throughout the pregnancy.
When a safety belt is worn properly, it
is more likely that the foetus will not
be hurt in a crash. Pregnant women
should wear the lap part of the belt
across the thighs and as snug across
the hips as possible. Keep the belt low
so that it does not come across the
abdomen. By doing this, the strong
bones of the hips will take the force if
there is a collision.
WARNING
Be sure everyone in your vehicle is
in a seat and using a seat belt
properly.
CHILD RESTRAINTS :
Use child restraint system appropriate
for the child until he / she becomes
mature enough to properly wear the
vehicle’s seat-belts. You must carefully
SEAT BELTS & CHILD LOCK
consult the manufacturer’s instructions which accompany the child
restraint system, about the age and
size of the child. The child restraint
system should be installed in the rear
seat.
NOTE
According to accident statistics, a
child is safer when properly
restrained in the rear seat than in
the front seat. For optimum safety,
children should travel in the rear of
the vehicle at all times.
NOTE
Child restraint systems are available
at authorized TATA MOTORS
dealerships. TATA MOTORS
recommends the use of a type which
fits your vehicle. Before installation,
always read the manufacturer’s
instructions.
SAFETY
CHILD LOCK:
Both the rear doors of the car are
provided with a child proof lock. Push
the lock lever located on vertical face
of the door near the lock downward
before closing the door. The door which
has been locked by activating the child
lock cannot be opened from inside, it
can be opened only from the outside.
NOTE
Deactivate the childproof lock when
not required.

disabling the engine ignition system.
The engine can be started only with
car’s original Immobilizer ignition key
which has an electronic identification
programmed code.
NOTE
Use only one E-key; the other
should be kept in a safe location.
Note down “key Tag no.” information (and keep it safe) which is
required while getting new / spare

WARNING
1. Do not turn ‘ON’ ignition switch
by using E-key with any type of
metal wound around its grip or
in contact with it. This may be
detected as an abnormal condition by immobilizer and prevent
the engine from starting.

SAFETY
SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM - AIR BAGS
SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT
SYSTEM- AIR BAGS : (If fitted)
•
The frontal air bags (driver and
passenger) are safety devices
designed to protect the occupants
in the event of a medium or high
intensity collision, which acts as a
cushion (bag) between the
occupant and the steering wheel.
•
In the event of a collision, an ECU
is so designed to process signals
from the sensor, to detect the
severity of collision and accordingly
trigger the inflation of air bags. Air
bags are not designed to inflate in
rollover, rear side or slow speed
angular crashes because the
necessary protection can be
achieved by the seat belt alone.
•
Air bags(s) may only deploy when
the ignition switch is ON. The
inflating air bag deploys out of the
steering wheel for the driver, and
dash board for the passenger. This
16
action takes place in a fraction of
second.
•
The air bags are filled with a
propellant gas (nitrogen). The
movement of the driver and of the
front passenger is cushioned when
they make contact with the fully
inflated airbag and the risk of injury
to head and chest is reduced. The
air bag then deflates subsequently
to such an extent, after an
accident, to again provide a clear
view forward. You may hear a noise
along with some smoke, dust and
smell of burnt propellant immediately after the air bag has inflated.
DO NOT PANIC as this is normal
and is not an indication of fire in
the vehicle.
Passenger Air Bag (PAB) switch
provided on the left side of the dashboard should always be ACTIVE. If
in case the front passenger seat is
unoccupied, the PAB may be
prevented from deploying by
turning the PAB switch to
INACTIVE by using the ignition key.
WARNING
Always maintain an adequate distance between yourself and the
airbags. Always grip the steering
wheel on the rim, with your hands
in the 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock
positions, to minimize the risk of
injury to the hands or arms in the
event of the airbag being triggered.
SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM - AIR BAGS
WARNING
No part of your body (example feet,
knees), objects and accessories
should be within close proximity to
the PAB module as it could obstruct
the operation of the air bag.
Deployed air bags and seat belt
pre-tensioners cannot protect you
in another collision. Have the air
bags, seat belt pre-tensioners,
replaced by TATA MOTORS
Authorized Service Centre immediately.
SAFETY
Centre. Do not permit anyone else
to do any service, inspection,
maintenance or repair on any SRS
components or wiring.
Improper work on the SRS system
will result in inadvertent deployment
of the air bag or could render the
SRS inoperative.
NOTE
In case of any frontal damage to
your vehicle, have the SRS
inspected by TATA MOTORS
authorised service outlet to ensure
it is in proper working condition.
Any maintenance performed on or
near the components of the SRS
must be performed only by a TATA
MOTORS Authorized Service

SAFETY
ANTI- LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM
(ABS): (If fitted)
ABS is a safety system that allows
efficient braking without losing
tractional control, prevents wheels from
locking up and avoids uncontrolled
skidding.
The Anti-Lock Braking System
monitors the rotational speed of each
wheel. During emergency braking ABS
controls the braking force of each
wheel. If it detects a wheel rotating
significantly slower than the others, a
condition indicative of impending wheel
lock it actuates the valves to reduce
hydraulic pressure to the brake at the
affected wheel thereby reducing the
brake force on that wheel. When ABS
is active the driver will feel the brake
pedal pulsate several times and a
sound may be audible from the ABS
module.
18
ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM (ABS)
NOTE
If the ABS warning lamp lights up
then there is a malfunction in the
ABS system (the standard braking
system will however function) and the
vehicle should be driven cautiously
to the nearest TATA MOTORS
Authorized Service outlet.
WARNINGS
The fact that a vehicle is fitted with
ABS must never tempt the driver into
taking risks that could affect his/her
safety or that of others. In all cases
it remains the driver’s responsibility
to drive within safety margins,
taking into consideration prevailing
weather and traffic conditions.

lower gear has to be done
cautiously to avoid loss of traction.
SAFETY
Descending Sharp Gradients :
• Never move the vehicle 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.
• 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.

ON BOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM (OBD)
ON BOARD DIAGNOSTIC (OBD)
SYSTEM:
On board Diagnostics or OBD is an
automotive term referring to a vehicle’s
self Diagnostic and reporting capability.
The OBD system allows continuous
diagnosis of the components of the
vehicle correlated with emissions. This
system warns the driver, by turning
“ON” the Malfunction Indication lamp
(MIL) on the instrument cluster, when
a fault causes emission levels to
increase.
The OBD system also has a diagnostic
connector that can be interfaced with
appropriate diagnostic tools, which
makes it possible to read the fault
codes stored in the Electronic Control
Unit, together with a series of specific
parameters for Engine operation and
Diagnosis. This check can also be
carried out by the traffic police.
which is located on the cockpit at RHS
of the steering wheel.

NOTE
In case the fault occurs and MIL
comes ON, contact nearest TATA
MOTORS authorized service center.
After eliminating the inconvenience,
to check the system completely,
TATA MOTORS authorized service
centers are obliged to run a bench
test and if necessary, road tests
which may also call for a long
journey. The functioning of MIL lamp
may also be checked by the traffic
police using specific devices.

Ensure that all side indicators/
hazard warning lights are always in
working condition and they are used
when required.
Always keep windshield glass clean
to avoid any distortion in visibility.
Ensure proper working of wipers and
condition of wiper blade. Ensure that
windshield washer reservoir is full. Do
not operate wiper alone when the
windshield glass is dry, this would
damage the windshield.
Headlights
Keep headlight lenses clean. Check
for operation of headlamps in both high/
low beam condition. Check for correct
focusing of headlamps. Use only
recommended type of bulbs. Do not
use the high beam unless it is
inevitable, as its dazzle may glare the
driver of an oncoming vehicle, thus
causing an accident.
Horn
Ensure the horn is working properly.
Horn provides safety to other road
users by alerting your presence.
Brakes
Ensure brakes are working properly.
Check brake fluid level in reservoir. Do
not drive the vehicle when brake
warning lamp is 'ON'.

FUEL SAVING TIPS
FUEL SAVING TIPS :
Always maintain clean air-filter:
Your vehicle's fuel economy is mainly
dependent on your style of driving.
The amount of air supplied will reduce
due to clogged air-filter, resulting in
wastage of fuel due to incomplete
combustion.
To operate your vehicle as
economically as possible, use the
following driving suggestions.
Avoid Excessive Idling :
Stop the engine and start it again, if
you have to wait for more than a minute.
e.g. At Traffic Signals.
Avoid fast starts and unnecessary
stops :
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
acceleration which uses more fuel.
82
Avoid incorrect tyre pressure :
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.
NOTE
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.

GOOD DRIVING PRACTICES & RUNNING IN
GOOD DRIVING PRACTICES:
•
Gear shifting should be gradual according to varying speeds. Avoid
rapid acceleration and prolonged
high speed running of the engine
while using the new vehicle for the
first 1500-1800 km of operation.
•
Slow down before shifting to a lower
gear. This will help for avoiding revving of the engine causing damage.
•
Avoid frequent brake application
which can cause overheating of
brakes.
•
Slower the vehicle speed while travelling in cross winds. This gives
much better control over the vehicle.
•
Avoid high speed when cornering
or turning.
•
Make sure that vehicle is completely stationary before you attempt to shift in reverse gear. This
will avoid damage to the transaxle.
STARTING & DRIVING
•
Drive slowly on wet roads. Wet
roads reduce vehicle traction and
affect your ability to stop and accelerate.
When the vehicle leaves the roadway,
do not steer sharply. Slow down
slightly before pulling back into the
travel lanes.
RUNNING-IN PERIOD :
Avoid rapid acceleration and prolonged
high speed running of the engine while
using the new vehicle for the first 15001800 km of operation.
Do not exceed the following road
speeds during running in period.

Before you shift to reverse gear, bring
your vehicle to a complete stop and
depress the clutch pedal fully.
Do not shift into reverse gear when the
vehicle is moving forward.
While shifting the gears, it is
recommended to shift at the speeds
given in the table.
You can get extra braking from the
engine when slowing down by shifting
to a lower gear.
This can help you to maintain a safe
speed and prevent your brakes from
overheating while going down a steep
hill.
NOTE
Avoid excessive revving up of engine
rpm.
Idling the engine for long duration
must be avoided.

BRAKES & BRAKING:
The brake system on your vehicle is
an advanced dual circuit, diagonal split
vacuum assisted hydraulic brake
system.
It is equipped with:
• Brake booster : Assists the driver
in braking with an ergonomic pedal
force on brake pedal;
• Tandem Master Cylinder, for fail
safe braking.
• Single pot calipers, for efficient
energy absorption.
• Auto adjusted rear brakes which
are designed for trouble free
performance
WARNINGS
Never use the brake pedal as a
footrest. Never depress the brake
pedal and the accelerator pedal at
the same time.
92
BRAKES & BRAKING
Water on brake discs and brake
pads affects braking:
Driving in rain and slush or in a vehicle
wash can cause water to collect on
the brake discs and pads. This will
cause a delay in braking effect when
the pedal is depressed. To avoid such
a delay when the brakes are needed,
depress the pedal occasionally when
driving through rain, slush etc.
This will remove the water from the
brakes. Check that brake application
feels normal. This should also be done
after washing or starting in very damp
or cold weather.
Severe strain on the brake system:
The brakes will be subject to severe
strain when driving in mountains or
hilly areas, or when towing. Vehicle
speed is usually slower, which means
that the cooling of the brakes is less
efficient than when driving on level
roads. To reduce the strain on the
brakes, shift into a lower gear and let
the engine help with the braking. Do
not forget that, if you are towing, the
brakes will be subjected to a greater
than normal load.
WARNINGS
If you shift gear down on a slippery
road surface in an attempt to
increase the engine's braking effect,
the wheels could lose their grip. This
may lead to increased danger of
skidding and accidents. Do not shift
down for additional engine braking
on a slippery road surface.
NOTE
Occasional brake noise is normal.
If a squeal metal-to-metal,
continuous grinding sound is
present; the brake linings may be
worn-out and should be inspected
by an authorized TATA MOTORS
dealer or If the vehicle has
continuous vibration or shudder in
the steering wheel while braking, the
vehicle should be inspected by
authorized TATA MOTORS dealer.

TYRES
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, tyre life and better
fuel efficiency.

Inflation :
Check the pressure in the tyres when
they are cold.
124
Over inflation of tyres makes the vehicle
ride bumpy and harsh. Tyres are more
prone to uneven wear and damage from
road hazards.
Under inflated tyres reduce your
comfort in vehicle handling and are
prone to failures due to high
temperature. They also cause uneven
wear and more fuel consumption.

NOTE
Every time you check inflation
pressure, you should also examine
tyres for damage, trapping of foreign
objects in the treads and wear.
The recommended tyre pressure is
mentioned as a permissible range in
which tyre pressure can be adjusted.
The higher value is recommended for
getting better fuel economy and lower
value is for better ride comfort.
TYRES
For correct tyre pressure, please
refer to sticker on right hand side
“B” pillar below the chassis
number.
NOTE
• If you notice bumps or bulges in
the tread or the side of the tyre,
replace the tyre.
• If there are cuts, splits or cracks
in the side of the tyre, replace the
tyre.
• Replace tyre if excessive tread
wear or non uniform tyre wear is
noticed.
Repairing a Tyre :
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.
MAINTENANCE & SERVICING
Check the balance weight prior to the
removal of the tyre. If found loose, mark
its location on the rim and 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.
NOTE
Do not apply any oil on the wheel
pins. Wipe off the oil if present.
Special care for tubeless tyres :
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. Over-inflation, in
particular, may cause puncture or
bursting of tyre.
NOTE
Life and wear pattern of tyres
depends on various parameters like
tyre pressure, wheel alignment,
wheel balancing, tyre rotation, etc.
125
08
08
MAINTENANCE & SERVICING
It also largely depends on car
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 :
TYRES
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.
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.
Wheel alignment :
2. Total balance weight should be
within 140 gms on each side.
Incorrect wheel alignment causes
excessive and uneven tyre wear.
Check wheel alignment at specified
intervals. Wheel alignment values are
given below :
3. Relocate the tyre if the weight
required to balance is more than
140 gm.

BATTERY :
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.
3. When this stops, wash it off with
plain water. Dry off the battery with
a cloth or paper towel.
4. Coat the terminals with petroleum
jelly to prevent future corrosion.
Use a proper wrench to loosen and
remove cables from the terminals.
Always disconnect the negative
(-ve) cable first and reconnect it
last.
MAINTENANCE & SERVICING
Clean the battery terminals with a
terminal cleaning tool or wire brush.
shield or have a skilled technician

highly corrosive in nature.
Ensure that the battery securely
mounted.
If you need to connect the battery to a
charger, disconnect both cables to
prevent damage to the vehicle ’s

NOTE
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 and open flames

NOTICE
Where oxidation catalytic converter is fitted, it is
mandatory to use Diesel fuel with sulphur contents as
given above. Use of any other diesel fuel can increase
the pollutants.
At very low temperature, fluidity of diesel may become
insufficient due to paraffin separation. It is therefore necessary to mix supplementary fuel with summer or winter grade
diesel. The supplementary fuel to be used is kerosene or
aviation turbine fuel. Ratio for mixing of supplementary fuel
and diesel are shown in the table.

ENVIRONMENT SAFETY
TATA MOTORS LTD. is committed to produce vehicles
using environmentally sustainable technology. A number
of features have been incorporated in Tata Motors
passenger vehicles which have been designed to ensure
environmental compatibility throughout the life cycle of the
vehicle. We would like to inform you that your vehicle
meets emission norms and this is being regularly validated
at the manufacturing stages.
As a user you too can protect the environment by
operating your vehicle in a proactive manner. A lot
depends on your driving style and the way you maintain
your vehicle. We have given a few tips for your guidance.
DRIVING
¾
¾
¾
Avoid frequent and violent acceleration.
Do not carry any unnecessary weight in the vehicle
as it overloads the engine. Avoid using devices
requiring high power consumption during slow city
traffic condition.
Monitor the vehicle’s fuel consumption regularly and
if showing rising trend get the car immediately
attended at the Company’s Authorised Service
Outlets.
¾
Switch off the engine during long stops at traffic
jams or signals. If you need to keep the engine
running, avoid unnecessary revving it up or stopping
and starting.
¾
It is not necessary to rev up the engine before
turning it off as it unnecessarily burns the fuel.
¾
Shift to higher gears as soon as it is possible. Use
each gear upto 2/3rd of it’s maximum engine speed.
A chart indicating gear shifting speeds is given in
this book.
MAINTENANCE
¾
Ensure that recommended maintenance is carried
out on the vehicle regularly at the Authorised Service
Outlets.
¾
As soon as you see any leakages of oil or fuel in
the vehicle we recommend to get it attended
immediately.
¾
Use only recommended grades and specified
quantity of lubricants.
¾ Get your vehicle checked for emission periodically
by an authorised dealer

drains, garden soil or open streams. Dispose the
used filters and batteries in compliance with the
current legislation.
