To Owners Of A Mahindra Vehicle - Mahindra ALTURAS G4 2019 Owner's Manual

GENERAL INFORMATION

1.4 To Owners of a Mahindra Vehicle

When first driving the vehicle after long periods of non-use, you may
experience a temporary drive disturbance. This is a characteristic
of the tyres and should be no reason for concern. The condition
should correct itself within 5-15 kms. of driving. If the disturbance
persists, have the tyres checked by an Authorised Mahindra Dealer.
Driving and Alcohol
Your driving ability can be seriously impaired by alcohol even if the
blood alcohol level is far below the legal minimum. Drunken driving
is one of the most frequent causes of accidents.
Never drink and drive. Drinking and driving will lead to an
accident resulting in serious personal injury.
Driving and Drugs/Medication
Your driving ability can be seriously impaired through the use of
prescription or non-prescription drugs or medication (even cough
syrup). If you are taking any sort of drug or medication, be sure that
it will not affect your driving ability.
Mobile Phones Warning
Use of electronic devices such as mobile phones, computers,
portable radios or other by the driver while driving is dangerous. In
exceptional condition, if use of a mobile phone is necessary despite
1-4
this warning, use a handsfree system to ensure that the hands are
free to drive the vehicle. Even handsfree do not ensure that due to
distraction an accident will not happen.
Please comply with the legal regulations concerning the use of
communication equipment in vehicles in your country.
Driving Long Distances
When you are driving over long distances, follow these tips so that
you have a safe journey:
• Lack of sleep or fatigue will impact your ability to drive safely
• Exercise your eyes by shifting the focus of your eyes to different
parts of the road
• Use stimulating beverages such as coffee or tea
• Relax and stay calm
• Take breaks at regular intervals
Protecting Our Environment
All of us should play our part in protecting our environment.
Judicious vehicle usage and ensuring hazardous waste disposal
(including cleaning and lubrication fluids) are important steps
towards this initiative.
Mahindra vehicles conform to existing emission norms (standards).
