Good driving practices
 Slow down before shifting to a lower
gear. This will help avoiding revving
of the engine causing damage.
 Avoid frequent brake application
which can cause overheating of
brakes.
 Slower the vehicle speed while trav-
elling in cross winds. This gives much
better control over the vehicle.
 Avoid high speed when cornering or
economy
turning.
 Depress the clutch fully while shifting
gears.
 Make sure that vehicle is completely
Petrol
stationary before you attempt to shift

in reverse gear.

Tips for obtaining better fuel effi-
ciency
 Always maintain the specified tyre
pressure during fuel top-ups and also
before a long trip. Vehicle running
with low tyre pressure will consume
more fuel than the one running with
specified tyre pressure.
STARTING AND DRIVING
 Keep the vehicle clean. Get rid of the
not in use luggage/stuff lying in the
boot etc.
 Regularly inspect your vehicle for any
leakages, worn out wires by rat bites
etc.
 Always follow periodic & regular ser-
vice schedule of the vehicle.
 In places with high dust content (e.g.:
Gurgaon, Jaisalmer etc.), do get the
air filter cleaned every
 Drive smart and smooth in an antici-
patory manner. Select driving mode
to suit your style.
 Do not accelerate excessively when
you are in lower gears (
gentle on the accelerator when you
are in traffic. In lower gear, opening
more throttle will shoot the engine
RPM keeping the vehicle still at lower
speeds which indirectly implies less
distance with more fuel.
