Steering SteeringSteering Steering
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.

Vacuum clean the carpet regularly to remove dirt. Dirt will make
the carpet wear out faster. Periodically shampoo the carpet to

Use carpet cleaners (preferably foam type). Follow the
instructions that come with the cleaner, applying it with a
sponge or soft brush. Keep the carpeting as dry as possible
by not adding water to the foam.

Avoid wiping of painted surface in dry condition as it may
leave scratches on the painted surface.
Use a soft bristle brush, sponge or soft cloth and rinse it
frequently while washing. When you have washed the whole
exterior, dry it with a chamois or soft cloth. After drying the car,
inspect it for chips and scratches that could allow corrosion to
start. Apply touch up paint where necessary.

Waxing and polishing is recommended to maintain the gloss
and wet-look appearance of your paint finish.
1. Use a good quality polish and wax for your vehicle.
2. Re-wax your vehicle when the water does not slip off the
surface and collects over the surface in patches.

Further tips for the care of your new vehicle finish :
If your vehicle is washed in an automatic car wash, please
remember that the paint can be scratched by type of brushes,
unfiltered washing water or the washing process itself.
Scratching reduces paint durability and gloss, especially on
darker colours. It is suggested to wash the vehicle by hand with
cool and clean water using a soft cloth or sponge. Please do not
use soap but a car shampoo recommended by your dealer.
Please take the following precautions : Please take the following precautions :Please take the following precautions : Please take the following precautions :
Please take the following precautions :
1. Always wash your vehicle in shade, avoiding direct exposure
to sunlight during washing.
2. Dry wiping your vehicle may lead to the formation of
scratches and hence always use a soft cloth and clean water
while wiping your vehicle.
3. Always keep your vehicle parked in a well ventilated shade.
Exposure to heat with entrapped moisture promotes corrosion.4. Avoid driving on gravel roads, as the possibility of paint
chip off due to the impact of stones is high. If you are
driving on freshly tarred road, check immediately
afterwards for any stains & clean them.
5. External contamination in the form of sap or industrial
fall-out may mar or develop spots on a new finish. Hence
avoid parking your vehicle near trees, which are known
to drop sap, or near factories, which give out heavy smoke.
6. The acid content in bird droppings may damage the newly
painted finish and hence any bird dropping must be
immediately washed off.
7. The paint finish is susceptible to damage in case petrol,
brake fluid, liquid from car battery, oil, antifreeze,
transmission fluid or windshield solvent spills onto the
painted surface. In case of such a spillage immediately
rinse the affected area with water. Avoid wiping the area
far as possible, however if wiping is required, ensure that
you wipe the area gently with soft cotton cloth.
8. Avoid using sharp objects to scrap off tar or mud from a
painted surface as it may develop scratches or may peel
off the paint.

Your vehicle is fitted with a turbocharger having variable
turbine technology ( VTT ). Turbocharger is an efficient
supercharging device used in our engine. It makes optimal
use of thermal energy of engine exhaust gases to run a
turbine which in turn drives a compressor to force air under
pressure into the inlet manifold. This turbocharger is
optimized for higher power output flat torque across large
engine speed range and better fuel consumption.

The turbocharger rotor assembly is supported by two fully
floating bearing bushes in the bearing housing. These
bearing bushes are lubricated with finely filtered engine
oil from the lubrication system of the engine.
Idle the engine for a while (30 seconds) after starting the
engine and before stopping the engine to ensure adequate
lubricating oil supply to the turbocharger.

All turbocharger connections must be leak-proof. Check air
inlet, air outlet, exhaust gas inlet and exhaust outlet
connections as well as oil inlet and outlet connections to
the turbocharger and tighten the connections where
required.Proper maintenance of air filter, oil filter as well as use of
correct grade of oil and adherence to oil change intervals is
essential for proper functioning of the turbocharger.
If you suspect any malfunctioning of the turbocharger, take
the vehicle to the nearest dealer. Do not remove the
turbocharger yourself.
