1) During a hard braking or when the road grip is poor, you
will feel the brake pedal is pulsating and an audible noise
in the system. This is absolutely Normal and it’s the
indication that your ABS is rapidly pumping the brakes. Do
not release the brake pedal, this defeats the purpose of
ABS. Keep firm steady pressure on the brake pedal so as
not to interrupt the braking action as long as you steer
away from the hazard.

Thus unnecessary spinning of one wheel is avoided and torque
is transmitted to both wheels, thus assisting the vehicle to traverse
loose terrain. However during normal driving, the differential
action takes place in the same manner as in a standard differential.

Four Wheel Drive Operation Four Wheel Drive OperationFour Wheel Drive Operation Four Wheel Drive Operation
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 get geared to the engine
through transfer case and transmit the engine power to all
four wheels. This gives the vehicle increased traction.
In 4H mode, the 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.

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
the vehicle was moving forward in 4H then bring it to halt and
engage reverse gear of main gear box. (If it was moving reverse
in 4H mode then stop it, 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, before free wheeling takes place.

Do not engage four wheel drive mode (4H or 4L)
continuously on dry and hard road surface. It can cause
expensive damage to the vehicle transmission and the
tyres.
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.
With ignition ‘ON’ 4H & 4L indicator lamp on panel should
glow for a few seconds only & then go off. Continuous
illumination of 4L & 4H lamps indicates electrical fault.

Steering (Ensure that Power Steering fluid reservoir is totally
clean before starting the work)
1 . Fill the reservoir nearly full. Crank the engine for 10
seconds without allowing it to start (if possible). If engine
does start, shut the engine immediately. Check & refill
the reservoir repeat atleast three times, each time
checking & refilling the reservoir.
2 . Check for leakage in the system and if noticed take
corrective action.
3 . Start the engine and steer the vehicle from full left to full
right turns 3-4 times.
4 . Add fluid if necessary to maintain the level upto filter top.
NOTICE NOTICENOTICE NOTICE
NOTICE
Do not force the wheel against lock position either
extreme left or right. The power steering pump may get
damaged. Hold it lightly.
5 . When the engine is at steady speed, check for bubble
or foaming in the oil. If present it indicates that air is
getting sucked into the systems. Check the suction
line/fittings and correct if necessary.
6 . Once the system is bled properly and free from foaming
there should not be any appreciable change in oil level
in the reservoir, when the engine is started or stopped
repeatedly.
7 . Now the system is ready for driving.
Final oil level should be at ‘H’ mark on dip stick.
NOTICE NOTICENOTICE NOTICE
NOTICE
* Do not allow fluid level to drop significantly or run out
of the reservoir during the above operation. This may
induce air to the system.
* Do not start the engine without oil in the power steering
system. This will result in serious damage to the
pump. In case of emergency disconnect the pump belt
and then start the engine.
* Always use recommended oil from closed containers.
Any dirty oil poured in the system will result in damage
to pump and gear box.

Wheel Alignment
Correct wheel alignment helps to decrease tyre wear. You
should get your vehicle’s wheel alignment checked regularly.
In case uneven tyre wear is observed, vehicle’s wheel alignment
should be checked as soon as possible.
Wheel Balancing Wheel BalancingWheel Balancing Wheel Balancing
Wheel Balancing
Wheels are balanced at the factory. They may need to be
rebalanced at some time before they are worn out. The wheels
should be checked for balance if tyre or tube is repaired.
Whenever a tyre or wheel rim is changed tyre needs to be
balanced.
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 gm.
4. Balance weights are available from 10 gm to 80 gm, 90 gm
to 140 gm & 15 gm to 135 gm in steps of 10 gms.
5. Do not use more than one balance weight on one side.T TT T

Check for the inflation and condition of your TATA SAFARI tyres
periodically.
Inflation InflationInflation Inflation
Inflation
Check the pressure in the tyres when they are cold.
Refer to tyre information label fitted on fuel flap inside for
correct cold tyre pressure.
You should have your own tyre pressure gauge and use it
all times. This makes 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 and tyre life.
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.
