The gauge indicates the temperature level of the engine coolant. The
red zone at 'H' indicates temperatures higher than normal.
Avoid driving, when the pointer is in the red zone. It indicates engine
overheating, which may be due to insufficient coolant in the radiator or
due to any other defect. Take the car to the nearest Authorised Service
outlet for necessary attention.

Automatic Hub Locks Automatic Hub LocksAutomatic Hub Locks Automatic Hub Locks
Automatic Hub Locks
While driving in 2H mode this mechanism on the front axle
hub allows the hub to free wheel. This avoids the unnecessary
spinning of front drive components and results in fuel saving,
reduced noise and longer component life.
As soon as 4H or 4L mode is selected the hub gets
automatically connected to front drive line to increase the
traction.
Limited Slip Differential Limited Slip DifferentialLimited Slip Differential Limited Slip Differential
Limited Slip Differential
(Standard on 4x4 and optional on others)
A standard differential delivers torque equally to each wheel.
In case one wheel loses traction and begins to spin, the
differential distributes the rotary speed unequally but with
same torque. This can cause the wheel with good traction to
slow down or stop while the wheel which lost traction rotates
with increased speed. Such a situation can prevent the vehicle
from moving.
The limited slip differential provided in the rear axle takes
care of such situations. The clutch lock arrangement provided
internally, ensures that in case one wheel loses traction and
begins to slip, a locking action takes place which prevents
differential action and both wheels turn at the same speed.
