2.5 Fuses and Relays

A fuse is electric protection device. The fuse is placed in the electrical circuit, so that when current flow exceeds the rating of the circuit/fuse, it blows off. The element in the fuse melts, opening the circuit and preventing other components of the circuit from getting damaged by the over current. The size of the metal fuse element determines the rating. Once a fuse blows off, it must be replaced with a new one, of the same rating.

Switch the ignition and all electrical equipment OFF before touching or attempting to change a fuse.

Replacement fuse must be with the same rating as the one you have removed.

You can identify a blown fuse by a break in the filament. All fuses except high current fuses are press fit.

Never touch fuses with bare hands. Always use a fuse puller to remove and refit the fuses.

Be careful while removing the relay, do not shake or apply excessive force to avoid damage to relay terminal.

Three fuse boxes are available in the vehicle;

•

Engine Compartment Fuse Box

•

Instrument Panel Fuse Box

•

Battery Mounted Fuse Box

2.5.1 Engine Compartment Fuse Box

Battery mounted fuse box consist of following fuses:

•

Brass fuse link

•

Bus bar fuse - 80 A

•

Cooling fan fuse – 60 A

Do not connect battery terminals with opposite polarity, it will lead to alternator failure

2.6 Flat tyre

Reduce your speed gradually, keeping a straight line. Move cautiously off the road to a safe place well away from traffic. Park on a level spot with firm ground. Stop the engine and turn ON your hazard warning flashers.

Firmly apply the parking brake. Have everyone come out of the vehicle, on the side away from traffic.

Never stop your vehicle in a traffic lane to change a tyre. Keep driving until you reach a safe location.

The jack provided along with the vehicle is to be used only for changing a spare tyre. It is never to be used to perform any other maintenance or repair on the vehicle.

Never place any part of your body under any portion of the vehicle when it is supported only by the jack. You could be crushed by the vehicle if it falls off a jack. Keep bystander’s away from the vehicle.

Find level, solid ground that is clear of oncoming traffic. If you cannot find a safe place to stop, it is better to drive on a flat tyre and damage the rim than take the risk of being hit by oncoming traffic.

After changing a flat tyre, never store the tyre or other equipment in the passenger compartment of the vehicle. This loose equipment could strike an occupant in the event of a sudden stop or collision. Store all of these items in the proper place.

The following sections outline the procedure for changing a flat tyre;

2.6.1 Jack/Wheel Spanner

The jack, wheel spanner, tow hook and jack handle are in the tool kit pouch to hold position on rear left side of the luggage compartment.

2.6.2 Spare Wheel Removal

The spare wheel is mounted below the luggage compartment at the rear end of the vehicle. It is held in place by a lock stud.

•

Rotate the lock stud by hand in anti-clockwise direction.

•

Slowly lift the spare wheel up and take out.

2.6.3 Wheel bolt Loosening

Wrap the tip of a screw driver with cloth, insert it near the lugs of the wheel cap (if equipped) and pry the cap away from the wheel.

Do not try to pry off the wheel cap by hand alone. Take due care in handling the wheel cap to avoid unexpected personal injury.

Always loosen the wheel bolts before raising the vehicle. Turn the wheel bolts counter clockwise to loosen as per the crisscross sequence shown. To get maximum leverage, fit the spanner to the bolt so that the handle is on the left side. Grab the spanner near the end of the handle and push down on the handle. Be careful that the spanner does not slip off the bolt. Do not remove the bolts, but loosen them by one or two turns.

Do not apply force with your legs (or stand) on the wheel spanner while loosening/tightening the wheel bolts.

2.7 Jack Points

Front jack up point - On the side sill in between the groove just behind the front wheels.

Rear jack up point - On the Side sill in between the groove just in front of the rear wheels.

2.7.1 Jacking

Position the jack at the correct jacking point. Make sure the jack is positioned on a level and solid ground. Ensure no one is in the vehicle.

Block the wheel diagonally opposite the flat tyre to keep the vehicle from rolling when it is jacked up. When blocking the wheel, place a wheel block in front of one of the front wheels or behind one of the rear wheels.

Flat Tyre

Chock Blocks

To raise the vehicle, insert the jack handle end along with the wheel spanner into the jack and turn it clockwise with the jack handle. As the jack touches the vehicle and begins to lift, check that it is properly positioned. Raise it high enough so that the spare tyre can be installed. Remember you will need more ground clearance when putting on the spare tyre than when removing the flat tyre.

Make sure to set the jack properly in the jacking point. Raising the vehicle with an improperly positioned jack will damage the underbody of the vehicle or may allow the vehicle to fall off the jack and cause personal injury.

•

Use the jack only for lifting your vehicle during wheel changing

•

Do not raise the jack with someone in the vehicle

•

When raising the vehicle, do not place any objects on top of or underneath the jack

•

Raise the vehicle only high enough to remove and change the wheel

•

Usable extended height of jack is up to the yellow line/mark. Do not raise the jack above the yellow line.

•

Follow jacking instructions

•

Do not start or run the engine while your vehicle is supported by the jack

Never get under the vehicle when the vehicle is supported by the jack alone.

Remove the wheel bolts. Lift the flat tyre straight off and place it aside. Roll the spare wheel into position and align the holes in the wheel with the holes on the hub. Lift up the wheel and get at least the top bolt aligned through its hole. Wiggle the wheel and fix the other bolts.

Re-install the wheel bolts inward and tighten by hand. Press the wheel inward and tighten the wheel bolts further.

Never use oil or grease on the bolts . Doing so may lead to over tightening of the bolts, wheel nut spanner slip, damage the bolts and also may cause personal injuries. Also, bolts may loosen and the wheels may fall off, which could cause a serious accident. If there is oil or grease on any bolt , clean before installing.

Lower the vehicle completely and tighten the diagonally opposite wheel bolts using the wheel nut spanner. Turn the jack handle extension counter clockwise using the jack handle to lower the vehicle, making sure the handle remains firmly fitted onto the jack handle extension. Make sure the wheel spanner is securely engaged over the bolt. Tighten each bolt a little at a time in the diagonally opposite order as shown. Repeat the process until all the bolts are tight. Do not use other tools or any additional leverage other than your hands, such as a hammer, pipe or your foot.

Improperly or loosely tightened wheel bolts are dangerous. The wheel could wobble or come off. This could result in loss of vehicle control and cause a serious accident. Always make sure all the wheel bolts are properly/securely tightened to the specified torque.

When lowering the vehicle, make sure all portions of your body are clear off the vehicle as it is lowered to the ground. Have the wheel bolts tightened with the torque spanner to 120 Nm, as soon as possible after changing wheels.

If you have rotated, repaired, changed your tyres or changed the wheel rims, check the wheel bolts are still tight after driving about 1,000 kms (Torque 120 Nm).

Put the wheel cap (if equipped) into position aligning the nozzle on the wheel to the nozzle clearance on the wheel cover. Tap it firmly on the sides with your hand to snap it into place.

Check the air pressure of the replaced tyre. If the pressure is lower than recommended, drive slowly to the nearest service station and inflate to the correct pressure. If it is too high, adjust it until it is correct. Always reinstall the valve cap after checking or adjusting tyre pressure. If the cap is not replaced, dirt and moisture could get into the valve core and cause air leakage. If you lose a valve cap, buy another and install it as soon as possible.

2.7.2 Restore the Tools, Jack and Flat Tyre Securely

Restore the tools and jack back to their respective locations. Mount the flat tyre to the spare wheel bracket at the luggage compartment and firmly tighten the securing bolts.

It is recommended to fix the flat tyre at the nearest tyre shop and swap the spare wheel back. The wheel balance and alignment differ from wheel to wheel which may lead to difference in steering and braking.

5 SEATS AND SEAT BELTS

5.1 Driver seat

5.1.1 Sitting in the Correct Position

Follow the tips below for a comfortable and safe journey;

•

Sit in an upright position with the base of your spine pressed against the seat back

•

Adjust the head restraint (if applicable) as close as possible to the above specified position, with the top of the head restraint even with the top of your head

•

Maintain sufficient distance between yourself and the steering wheel. Maintain at least a ten inch (10") distance from the centre of the steering wheel to your chest

•

The top curve of the steering wheel should align with your chin for ideal road visibility

•

Adjust your seat and seat back angle such that your wrists rest on top of the steering wheel freely

•

Ensure your legs are in a bent position while fully depressing the clutch pedal

The seat should be adjusted while still maintaining control of the foot pedals, steering wheel and your view of the instrument panel controls.

Never adjust the driver's seat while the vehicle is in motion. The seat may unexpectedly move and cause the driver to unintentionally operate the accelerator or brake, or turn the steering wheel, causing loss of control of the vehicle, an accident or serious personal injury. Adjust the driver's seat only when the vehicle is not in motion.

Never put objects under the seats. They may interfere with the seat-lock mechanism or unexpectedly activate the seat position adjusting lever, causing the seat to suddenly move, resulting in loss of control of the vehicle, an accident or serious personal injury.

While adjusting the seat, do not put your hands under the seat or near the moving parts. This may lead to injuries.

If the back rest is inclined too much, then under severe deaccelration the person can slide under the belt, and negating the safety of the seat belt

5.1.2 Front Seat Slide

Move the seat forward or backward by lifting the adjustment lever located under the seat front and release once the desired position is reached.

While adjusting the seat, make sure the latch engages fully and the seat is locked firmly in the desired position. An unlocked seat may move in a sudden stop or collision, causing injury to the person in that seat. Push and pull on the seat to be sure it is locked.

5.1.3 Front Seat Recline

To adjust the seat back, lift the recline lever located on the outboard side of the seat, lean back and release the lever at the desired position. To return the seat back, lift the lever, lean forward, and release the lever.

The seat belts provide maximum protection in a frontal or rear collision when the occupants are sitting up straight and well back in the seats. If you are reclined, the lap belt may slide past your hips and apply restraint forces directly to the abdomen, or the shoulder strap may contact your neck. The more the seat is reclined, the greater the risk of serious injury.

When returning a extremely reclined seat back to its upright position, make sure you support the seat back while operating the lever.

5.1.4 Driver Seat Height Adjust (if equipped)

Lift/Push the seat height adjustment lever located on the outboard side of the driver seat to raise/lower the seat. Adjust the seat height such that you are able to depress the clutch pedal completely.

It is recommended to adjust the seat height only when the vehicle is stationary.

5.2 Head Restraint

5.2.1 Fixed Head Restraint (If applicable)

Your vehicle front seats are equipped with fixed head restraints. The head restraint help to avoid the whiplash injury on the neck in the event of rear collision.

The Fixed head restraint comprises of the padded portion which contacts your head and the seat back.

5.2.2 Adjustable Head Restraint(If applicable)

The head restraint comprises of the padded portion which contacts your head . It is inserted/locked in receptacles on the top of the seat back.

Your vehicle front & rear seats are equipped with head restraints which are vertically adjustable. The head restraint help to avoid the whiplash injury on the neck in the event of rear collision.

Always align top of the head restraint with the top of your head or as close to it as possible. To raise the head restraint, press the lock knob and pull the restraint up. To lower the head restraint, press the lock knob and push the head restraint down.

5.2.3 Removing Seat Head Restraint

The head restraint can be pulled out completely by depressing the locking button while pulling the restraint out.

5.2.4 Installing Seat Head Restraint

Align the head restraint shafts over the holes on the seat top and push the restraint straight down till you hear the lock click.

Keep the seat back as upright as possible so the headrest is behind, not beneath, and almost touching your head.

Never drive with the head restraints not properly adjusted, head restraints removed or inserted in a flipped condition. With no support behind your head, your neck could be seriously injured in a collision.

Head restraints are provided for the front row and second row outboard occupants.

5.3 Front Foldable Armrests (if equipped)

Front middle seat backrest can be folded and utilized as arm rest for both front occupants.

Pull the lock upwards and fold the middle seat backrest to the required position

To straighten the middle seat backrest, pull the lock upwards and lift the backrest to the vertical position

5.4 Second Row Bench Seat

Loading cargo on the seats is dangerous. The cargo becomes a projectile that could hit and injure passengers in a sudden stop or collision. Cargo should always be kept on the floor.

Seat Fold

The second row seat back can folded forward for maximum cargo space.

To fold the second row seat back down, pull the knobs at the top both sides of the seat firmly and push seat back forward. Ensure the head restraints on the second row seat are lowered all the way down before attempting to fold.

Optionally cushion can also be flipped forward before folding the backrest to achieve a flatter luggage floor

5.5 Rear Foldable Arm-Rests

Second row middle seat backrest can be folded and utilized as arm rest for rear seats.

Pull the strap and fold the middle seat backrest to the required position

5.6 General Warnings and Instructions - Seat Belts

At least once each month, inspect the seat belt webbing for any cuts, tears, or other signs of wear (such as fraying along the edges). Also inspect the anchors, retractors, and buckles to be sure they are tight and operational.

•

All occupants, including the driver, should always wear their seat belt no matter how short the trip in order to minimize the risk of severe injury in the event of a crash. In an accident, an un-belted passenger becomes a projectile, and can cause serious injury to himself or another passenger.

•

In a rollover crash, an un-belted person is significantly more likely prone to Injury than a person wearing a seat belt

•

In order to be properly buckled, you must always sit up straight and keep your feet on the floor in front of you. The lap part must be worn low and tight across your hips, just touching the top of your thighs. While fastening the seat belt, the shoulder strap of the seat belt must pass over your chest and top of your shoulder. It must never touch your neck, face, the side of your shoulder, arm, or pass under your arm. The belt must always be flat against your body and not twisted in any way. Nothing, such as an arm rest, a pocketbook, or any external objects should be between you and the seat belt. Improper wearing of a seat belt will reduce the protection in an accident.

•

Seat belts should be adjusted as tightly as possible, consistent with comfort to properly secure the wearer in the seat.

•

The seat belts provided for your vehicle are designed for people of adult size, must be properly used and maintained.

•

For usage of adult seat belt to secure children refer to section on manual for child seat positions and use of child restraint systems

•

Passengers should not move out of or change seats while the vehicle is moving. A passenger who is not wearing a seat belt can be thrown against the inside of the vehicle, against other occupants, or out of the vehicle during a crash or emergency stop

•

Do not use any accessories on seat belts or modify in any way the seat belt system. Devices claiming to improve occupant comfort or reposition the seat belt can reduce the protection provided by the seat belt and increase the chance of serious injury in a crash

•

An accident or emergency stop, can damage your seat belt system, even if the accident is “minor”. Please have your Authorized Mahindra Dealer inspect the seat belt system after an accident

•

Please be aware that any unsecured item in your vehicle, such as your pet, unsecured child restraint system, or a laptop, can become a projectile in the event of an accident or sudden stop, causing injuries to occupants in the vehicle

Never use a damaged seat belt system. A damaged seat belt will not provide protection in an accident, resulting in serious injury.

•

Seat belt systems can be prone to abuse. They are not indestructible. They must be handled with care to avoid damage

•

Keep the belts clean and dry. Belt retraction may become difficult if the belts and webbing are soiled. If they need cleaning, use a mild soap solution or lukewarm water. Never use bleach, dye, or abrasive cleaners. These chemicals will severely weaken the belts

•

Retractors in a 3 point type seat belts retract the seat belts when not in use. The inertia lock and coil spring allow the belts to remain comfortable on users during normal driving. During accidents or abrupt stops, inertia locks restrict the forward movement of the wearer

Seat Belts - Patients

Persons with serious medical conditions should also wear a seat belt. Consult your doctor for specific recommendations before travel.

Seat Belts - Pregnant Women

Pregnant women must also wear seat belts. Consult your doctor for specific recommendations.

The lap belt should be worn snugly and as low as possible over the hips. The shoulder belt should be worn across your shoulder, but never across the stomach area. When worn properly, the seat belt will protect both the mother and the foetus in an accident or emergency stop.

A pregnant woman should never wear the seat belt across the stomach area. This could lead to serious injuries to the foetus and/or the pregnant mother.

Never wear twisted seat belts. Excessive forces will be transferred from the belt to the wearer, in a collision, resulting in serious personal injury.

Each seat belt is meant for use by one person only. Using one seat belt for more than one person at a time is dangerous. The seat belt will not be able to spread the impact forces properly leading to serious injuries.

Never put a belt around a child being carried on the occupant's lap. This could lead to serious injuries.

Seat Belt Usage is Necessary to:

•

Reduce the possibility of being thrown from your vehicle

•

Reduce the possibility of injuries to lower body and legs during an accident

•

Hold the driver in a position which allows better control of the vehicle

Children who are too large for child restraint systems should always occupy the rear seat and use the vehicle seat belts. The lap portion should be fastened snug on the hips and as low as possible and the shoulder strap should be across the child's shoulder, not the neck or face. If you are unable to position the strap across the child's shoulder, the child should remain in a booster seat. Frequently check the seat belt to be sure it remains snug and in position. A squirming child could cause the seat belt to come out of position.

5.6.1 Passenger Occupant Detection System (PODS)

PODS system is to detect the presence of occupant in the seat.

If occupant is present and not wearing seat belt, seat belt reminder warning lamp will come ON till the seat belt is buckled.

Seat belt buzzer audible warning will come ON 35 sec once, if any of the driver/co-driver seat belt is in unbuckled condition & any of the below condition are met.

•

Vehicle speed above 24 kmph

•

Vehicle speed above 10 kmph for 10 sec

•

Time elapsed is more than 30 sec after drive enable press

5.7 Fastening the Seat Belt

5.7.1 3-Point type (if equipped)

Adjust the seat as needed and sit up straight and well back in the seat. To fasten your seat belt, pull the webbing out of the retractor and insert the metal tab into the buckle. There will be an audible “click” when the tab locks into the buckle. Pull up on the shoulder strap to tighten the lap belt across your hips. The seat belt retractor will pull in any slack in the shoulder strap. A slow and easy motion will allow the belt to extend and let you move your body around freely.

Periodically check the seat belt as you ride to be sure it remains snug and in position. If there is a sudden stop or impact, the belt will lock into position. It will also lock (restrict) if you try to lean forward too quickly.

If the driver’s seat belt is not fastened when the ignition is switched ON, the seat belt warning lamp illuminates. Refer to ‘Warning Lamps’ in the ‘Features and Control’ chapter for further details.

5.7.2 2-Point Lap type (if equipped)

This seat belt is applicable in some seating positions in some variants as applicable. Insert the metal tab into the buckle until it snaps. Position the lap belt on the hips as low as possible.

5.7.3 Unfastening the Seat Belt (both 3-Point & 2-Point)

To release the belt, press the buckle release button and allow the belt to retract. If the belt does not retract smoothly, pull it out and check for kinks or twists. Then make sure it remains untwisted as it retracts.

Never insert coins, clips, etc. in the buckle as it may prevent you from properly latching the tab and may cause damage to the buckle mechanism, thereby making the seat belt ineffective in an accident, resulting in serious personal injury.

5.8 Child Restraint System (CRS) Using Seat Belts

Always secure a child in a proper Child Restraints System in accordance with age and size of the child as recommended by the child restraint system manufacturer. Be sure to follow the Child Restraint System (Child seat) manufacturer’s instructions for seat belt routing.

Do not allow children to stand up or kneel on either the rear or the front seats. An unrestrained child could suffer serious injuries during emergency braking or collision.

6 SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)

6.1 Airbags

Your Vehicle has the following airbags ( Based on Variant type)

•

A Frontal airbag for driver – located in steering wheel hub

•

A Frontal airbag for front outboard passenger – located in instrument panel on passenger side

They are indicated by “SRS AIRBAG” embossed on steering wheel / Instrument panel respectively

An airbag is not designed to deploy in every type of crash. Depending on the type of accident or impact, the front airbags independently deploy thereby protecting the occupants. It is not necessary that ALL the airbags deploy during an accident.

To minimize the risk of severe injury in the event of a crash, every passenger must always wear their seat belt (see the chapter on Seat Belts in this manual). The airbags inflate very quickly with great force. Do not position any part of your body too close to a airbag, you or especially children could be seriously injured/killed by a deploying airbag.

6.2 Introduction

The Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) includes airbags, and ECU. The airbags are designed to provide additional protection to the vehicle occupants over and above the primary protection provided by the seat belts.

The primary components of the SRS are the sensors which measure the deaccelration intensity. In the event of a frontal impact, intensity being above the threshold the SRS airbags inflate to work in conjunction with the seat belts and help reduce injuries mainly to the driver's or front passenger's head/chest.

Seat belts are the primary restraint system in the vehicle. An airbag provides supplemental protection in addition to the seat belts.

All occupants, including the driver, should always wear their seat belts irrespective of presence of airbags; to minimize the risk of severe injury in the event of a crash.

Airbag is more effective in reducing injuries when the seat belts are worn.

6.2.1 Driver and Front Passenger Airbag

Your vehicle is equipped with a Supplemental Restraint System (Airbag) and lap/shoulder belts at both the driver and front passenger seating positions. The indications of the system's presence are the letters “SRS AIRBAG” embossed on the airbag pad cover in the steering wheel and the passenger's side front panel pad above the glove box.

The SRS is designed to deploy the front airbags only when an impact is sufficiently severe and when the impact angle is less than ± 30° from the forward longitudinal axis of the vehicle.

Front airbags are not intended to deploy in side-impact, rear impact or rollover crashes. In addition, front airbags will not deploy in frontal crashes which are below the prescribed deployment threshold where risk of serious injuries is low.

Do not place any objects over the airbag or between the airbag and yourself.

6.2.2 Airbag System Malfunction Lamp

Airbags do not require any regular maintenance of service. The airbag system malfunction lamp illuminates when the ignition is ON, and it turns OFF after about 3 seconds as self check confirming normal operations of airbag system and malfunction lamp.

This lamp monitors airbag sensor assembly, airbag sensors, indicator lamp, inflators, interconnecting wiring and power sources.

If either of the following conditions occur, there is a malfunction of the airbags. Immediately contact your Mahindra Dealer.

•

The lamp does not glow when the ignition is switched ON or glows beyond six (6) seconds after switching the ignition ON

•

The lamp comes ON at any other time, even briefly

•

The lamp comes ON intermittently

Never make any modifications to your vehicle which could affect the performance of your airbag system. In particular, changes to the vehicle frame, bumpers, bull bar, front fenders, ride height, suspension, seat belts, interior trim, seats or steering wheel (especially covers, pads or other trim), could prevent proper deployment of the airbag. If you need to make any modifications to accommodate any disability you may have, please contact your Authorized Mahindra Dealer.

Never try to open or strike the airbag cover. If the airbag cover is cracked or damaged in any way, the airbag may not function as intended. Take the vehicle to an Authorized Mahindra Dealer.

Even if the airbags do not deploy during an accident, take your vehicle to an authorized Mahindra Dealer for a thorough inspection of the airbag and seat belt systems, no matter how minor the accident. The airbag system could have been damaged, and may not work as intended in the future, resulting in serious injury.

6.2.3 Airbag Inflation/Deployment

The airbag sensors constantly monitor the forward deceleration of the vehicle. If an impact results in a forward deceleration beyond the designed threshold level, the system triggers the airbag inflators. This initiates a chemical reaction which quickly fills the airbags with non-toxic gas.

Upon deployment, tear seams molded directly into the pad covers separate under pressure from the expansion of the airbags. Further opening of the covers allows full inflation of the airbags. A fully inflated airbag, in combination with a properly worn seat belt, slows the driver's or the passenger's forward motion, reducing the risk of head and chest injury.

After complete inflation, the airbag immediately starts deflating, enabling the driver to maintain forward visibility and the ability to maneuver or operate other controls.

Deployment of the airbags happen in a fraction of a second, producing a loud noise releasing a ‘white smoke’ and residue along with a non-toxic gas. This does not indicate a fire. This smoke may remain inside the vehicle for some time, and may cause some minor irritation to the eyes, skin or breathing. Be sure to wash off any residue with soap and water as soon as possible to prevent any potential skin irritation. If you can safely exit the vehicle, you should do so immediately.

•

Do not modify, remove, strike or open the airbag sensor or surrounding area or wiring. Failure to follow these instructions may prevent them from activating correctly, cause sudden operation of the system or disable the system, which could result in serious injury

•

Parts of the airbag module (steering wheel hub, airbag cover and inflator) may be hot for several minutes after deployment. The airbags inflate only once

•

Do not cover the steering wheel, instrument panel, seats with any object (e.g. dash panel covers) which may prevent the airbags from inflating properly

•

The airbags inflate with considerable force. While the system is designed to reduce serious injuries, primarily to the head and chest, it may also cause other, less severe injuries to the face, chest, arms and hands. These are usually in the nature of minor burns or abrasions and swelling, but the force of a deploying airbag can also cause more serious injuries, especially if an occupant's hands, arms, chest or head is in close proximity to the airbag module at the time of deployment. Sit straight and well back into the seat. Move your seat as far back as practical to allow room for airbag inflation, while still allowing you to properly operate/drive the vehicle

The front passenger should never sit on the edge of the seat, stand near the glove compartment, rest feet or other parts of the body on the dashboard when the vehicle is moving.

The driver or front passenger who is too close to the steering wheel or dashboard can be seriously injured during airbag deployment.

•

The driver must sit as far back as possible from the steering wheel while still maintaining control of the vehicle

•

The front passenger must sit as far back as possible from the dashboard

•

Sitting improperly or out of position can cause occupants to be shifted too close to a deploying airbag, strike the interior structure or be thrown from the vehicle resulting in serious injury

•

Always sit upright with the seat back in an upright position, on the seat cushion centre with your seat belt on, legs comfortably extended and your feet on the floor

•

If the back rest is inclined too much, then under severe deaccelration the person can slide under the belt, and negating the safety of the seat belt

•

All vehicle occupants must be properly restrained using the seat belts

•

All infants and children must be placed in child restraint seat as defined locations (Sec 5.8)

•

Front airbags can injure occupants improperly positioned in the front seats

•

Even with airbags, improperly belted and un-belted occupants can be severely injured when the airbag inflates. Always follow the precautions about seat belts, airbags and occupant safety contained in this manual

•

Do not modify the front seats. Modification of the front seats can interfere with the operation of the supplemental restraint system

•

Do not place items under the front seats. Placing items under the front seats could interfere with the operation of the supplemental restraint system sensing components and wiring harnesses

6.2.4 Child Restraint and Airbag (if equipped)

Never place a Child seat (Rear-facing or Front facing) restraint in front passengers seat, if passenger airbag is present. Because, If the airbag deploys could cause serious or Fatal injuries to the child.

Extreme Hazard! Do not use a rear facing child restraint on a seat protected by an airbag in front of it!

Never put a child restraint in the front passenger’s seat. If the front passenger airbag inflates, it can cause serious or fatal injuries.(Only where Front passenger airbag present)

Never hold an infant or child on your lap. The infant or child could be seriously injured in the event of a crash. All infants and children should be properly restrained in appropriate child safety seats or seat belts in the rear seat.

Install child restraint system as suggested in Sec 5.8 on the rear outboard seats, and securely lock the child restraint system in position.

Always Buckle Children (ABC) in the back seat. It is the safest place for children of any age to ride.(if applicable)

6.2.5 Airbag Deployment

The images shown in this section are for illustrative purpose only. They may not look like your model/variant or vehicle.

Front Airbag’s

Front airbags are designed to inflate in a frontal collision depending on the intensity, speed or angles of impact of the front collision.

Airbag Non-deployment

Impacts below a pre-determined threshold level may not cause the airbag’s to deploy in the following cases:

•

Collision with Utility Poles or Trees

Airbags may not inflate if the vehicle collides with objects such as utility poles or trees, where the point of impact is concentrated to one area and the full force of the impact is not delivered to the sensors.

•

Under-ride Situations

Running under a truck's tail gate may not provide the decelerations necessary for airbag deployment. Just before impact, drivers often brake heavily. Such heavy braking lowers the front portion of the vehicle causing it to “ride” under a vehicle with a higher ground clearance. Airbags may not inflate in this “under-ride” situation where deceleration forces that are detected by sensors may be significantly reduced by such “under-ride” collisions.

Rear-end Collisions

Frontal airbags are not designed to inflate in rear collisions, where occupants are moved backward away from the airbags by the force of the impact. In this case, inflated airbags would not be able to provide any additional benefit.

•

Frontal Impact

Frontal impact beyond 30º range from head-on to the vehicle.

•

Potholes or Stepped Surfaces

Driving into a big pot-hole, stepped surface or hitting the far side of a hole/incline will not inflate the airbag.

•

Rollover

Airbags will not inflate in rollover accidents where airbag deployment would not provide protection to the occupants.

•

Frontal Side Swipe Impact

Frontal offset impact to the vehicle may not provide the deceleration force necessary for airbag deployment. In an angled collision, the force of impact may direct the occupants in a direction where the airbags would not be able to provide any additional benefit, and thus the sensors may not deploy any airbags.

6.2.6 Airbag Replacement

Self-servicing or tampering with the airbag system is dangerous. An airbag could accidentally deploy causing serious injuries, or will not deploy when there is a need. Always take your vehicle to an Authorized Mahindra Dealer for inspection and repairs.

6.2.7 Self Removing SRS Related Parts

Self removing the instrument panel, steering wheel, seats or airbag related parts or sensors is not recommended. Airbags could accidentally activate and cause serious injuries, or they may not deploy when there is a need. Visit an Authorized Mahindra Dealer if these parts must be removed.

6.2.8 Airbag Disposal

Improper disposal of an airbag or a vehicle with live airbags can be extremely dangerous. Approach an authorized Mahindra dealer to do these jobs.

6.2.9 Airbag Repair

If the front airbag cover or passenger airbag cover shows signs of damage or having been removed, the vehicle should be towed to the nearest authorized Mahindra dealer for repair. Do not attempt to self repair or reinstall the cover.

6.2.10 Airbag Maintenance

For cleaning the airbag covers/areas, use only a soft dry cloth or one which has been moistened with plain water. Solvents or cleaners could adversely affect the airbag covers and proper deployment of the system.
