The use of a wrench to loosen and remove cables from the
terminals should be made. Always disconnect the negative
(-ve) cable first and reconnect it last. Clean the battery
terminals with a terminal cleaning tool or wire brush.
Reconnect and tighten the cables, coat the terminals with
petroleum jelly. If you need to connect the battery to a
charger, disconnect both cables to prevent damage to the
vehicle’s electrical system.
NOTICE NOTICENOTICE NOTICE
NOTICE
Charging the battery with the cables connected can
seriously damage your vehicle’s electronic controls.
Detach the battery cables before connecting battery to
a charger.
* Swallowing electrolyte can cause fatal poisoning if
immediate action is not taken.
Starting the Engine with Jump Leads Starting the Engine with Jump LeadsStarting the Engine with Jump Leads Starting the Engine with Jump Leads
Starting the Engine with Jump Leads
Your Safari with a discharged battery may be started by
transferring electrical power from a battery in another vehicle.
This may be dangerous as any deviation from the following
instructions could lead to personal injury or damage
resulting from battery explosion, as well as the damage to
the electrical systems in both vehicles.• Never expose the battery to open flames or sparks.
• Do not allow battery electrolyte to come in contact with
eyes, skins, fabrics or painted surfaces. The fluid
contains sulphuric acid which can cause injuries and
damage in the event of direct contact.
• To lessen the risk of injury wear eye protection when
working near any battery.
• Make sure that battery providing the jump start has the
same voltage as the battery in your vehicle (12 V). Its
capacity must not be substantially lower than that of the
discharged battery. The voltage and capacity are given
on the batteries.
• Do not disconnect the discharged battery from the vehicle.
• Switch off all unnecessary electrical loads.
• Do not lean over the battery during jump starting.
• Do not allow the terminals of one lead to touch those of
the other lead.
• Apply hand brake. Place gear shift lever to neutral.

•Do not connect lead to negative terminal of discharged
battery.
•The connection point should be as far away from the
discharged battery as possible.

•Route the leads so that they cannot catch on rotating parts in
the engine compartment.
•The engine of the vehicle providing the jump start can be allowed
to run during starting.
Attempts to start the engine of the vehicle with the discharged
battery
should be made at intervals of one minute and should not last longer
than 15 seconds. After starting, allow both engines to idle for
approximately 3 minutes with the leads still connected.

Maintaining the car when not in extended use :
Park the car in covered, dry and if possible well-ventilated
premises.
Engage a gear.
Remove the cables from the battery terminals (first remove
the cable from the negative terminal).
Make sure the handbrake is not engaged.
Clean and protect the painted parts using protective wax.
Clean and protect the shiny metal parts using commercially
available special compounds.
Sprinkle talcum powder on the rubber windscreen wiper and
rear window wiper blades and lift them off the glass.
Slightly open the windows.
Cover the car with a cloth or perforated plastic sheet. Do
not use sheets of imperforated plastic as they do not allow

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 : Further tips for the care of your new vehicle finish :Further tips for the care of your new vehicle finish : Further tips for the care of your new vehicle finish :
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.
