be on a service pit.
1 . Run the engine until it reaches normal operating temperature. Then
shut it off.
2. Remove oil sump guard.
3. Open the bonnet and remove engine oil filler cap. Remove the drain
plug of the oil sump from the bottom of the engine. Drain the oil into
an appropriate container.
4. Remove the oil filter with the help of special wrench. The removed
oil filter should not be reused and hence should be destroyed to
avoid recycling of the same. Used filter and oil should be disposed
in compliance with the current legislation.
5. Ensure cooler is tightened to it’s position.
6. Smear a little fresh engine oil on rubber gasket of new engine oil
filter. Hand tighten the engine oil filter fully and further 3/4 turn with

Your car’s head lamps have H4 type halogen bulbs with twin
filaments, the “High beam” for illuminating the road for long
distances and the “Low beam” for short distance visibility.
The head lamps must be aligned properly for maximum road
illumination and reduced glare for oncoming traffic. The alignment
of head lamp beams should be checked periodically.

A load conscious pressure reducing valve eliminates the
possibility of rear wheels from locking and achieves optimum
braking in any load condition of the vehicle.
The valve, is fitted on RH long member connecting it to rear
axle through its link and control spring.
If any, alteration is done in rear suspension, the performance
of this valve will be impaired.

The by-pass valve is provided in the rear brake circuit between
tandem master cylinder and ABS unit. The by-pass valve
bypasses the ABS unit in rear only braking (i.e. front brake
failed) condition. The feedback of front line pressure is
provided to the by-pass valve. in case of front brake failure,
the low front line presure being sensed by the by-pass valve
and the 100% brake line pressure from tandem master
cylinder is applied on to the rear brakes without reduction
in pressure.

ECU :
DICOR engine common rail system consists of ECU, sensors
and actuators. The Electronic control unit (ECU) is a 32 bit
microprocessor which controls the injection parameters as well
as some of the vehicle related outputs. The ECU receives input
from various sensors located on the engine and the vehicle to
decide the injected quantity and injection timing best suited
for the engine to work with maximum efficiency and safety.
ECU is fitted inside the engine compartment.

a soft 100% cotton cloth to avoid scratches. Please take help
of your dealer to buy the right products.
3. Please be sure that you remove your wristwatch and wear
soft gloves to avoid scratches due to finger rings or nails.
4. To remove stubborn stains and contaminants like tar, use
turpentine or cleaners like "Stain Remover" which is safe
for painted surfaces. Again your dealer can help you in
selecting the right product.
5. Avoid substances like petrol, diesel, kerosene, benzene or
other solvents that cause damage to paint.
6. Dry your vehicle thoroughly to prevent any damp spots.

and other cleaners as this may lead to the formation of
stains on the painted surface later.

Check the conditions of belts on the engine. Examine the edge of
the belt for cracks or fraying.
Check the tension of the belt by pushing on it with your thumb for
Alternator belt and A.C. compressor belt and Power Steering belt
as shown in schematic diagram.
The belts should have deflection of 4 to 6 mm.
If the belt tension is not proper, get it attended at the nearest
authorised service outlet.
Correct tension of the belt is very critical from belt life and belt
noise point of view. It is recommended that belt tension should be
measured with clavis gauge to ensure recommended values as given
below
