Vehicle Performance Variation
We at TVS, value your safety and comfort and hence have taken certain measures to ensure the best riding
experience of your TVS iQube Electric S.
In line with this, we have deployed a safety measure for critical vehicle parts like the motor and the MCU.
To ensue the safety of you and your TVS iQube Electric S, in high temperature conditions, whenever the
temperature of vehicle components reaches a critical point, as a safety measure performance of some systems
are deliberately reduced to optimize the temperature. This is indicated by the MIL on your dashboard glowing
after sometime accompanied by a message.
For example, if you have accelerated the scooter with brakes applied, the temperature of the motor and
the MCU starts increasing. Once it reaches a critical point, the Motor Controller Unit starts "derating" the
vehicle to control the increase in temperature beyond critical point, thus slowing the vehicle down a little.
This may result in loss of vehicle performance to a certain extent, and you may experience some drop
in performance.
In extreme conditions, for example; when ambient temperature is extremely high and vehicle is being driven
continuously in overloaded condition, even after the MIL indication on your cluster is on, it may result in the
vehicle coming to a complete stop.
In any such situation that you may face, it is recommend to allow the vehicle to cool down by riding it
in slow speed in Eco Mode or stop the vehicle for some time till the MIL indicator on your connected
instrument cluster goes away. Usually this should only take a few minutes. This will ensure the safety of you
as well as life of electric components in the scooter.
Incase if the MIL indicator is glowing continuously even when vehicle is in cold condition, take your
vehicle to TVS Motor Company Authorised Main Dealer for rectification.
