Finish Damage
Any stone chips, fractures or deep scratches in the finish should be
repaired promptly. Bare metal will corrode quickly and may develop
into a major repair expense. Minor chips and scratches can be
repaired with touch-up materials. Larger areas of finish damage
can be corrected in your Mahindra Dealers body and paint shop.
Underbody Maintenance
Corrosive materials used for ice and snow removal and dust control
can accumulate on the underbody. If these materials are not
removed, accelerated corrosion (rust) can occur on underbody
parts such as the fuel lines, frame, floor pan, and the exhaust
system even though they have been provided with corrosion
protection. At least every spring, flush these materials from the
underbody with plain water. Take care to clean any area where mud
and other debris can accumulate.
Sediment packed in closed areas of the frame should be loosened
before being flushed. If desired, your Mahindra Dealers can do this
service for you.
• When the engine is washed, fuel, grease or oil residues are
washed off. Therefore you should use only a filling station or
a Mahindra Dealers who has oil separator equipment in the
car wash bay
• Used engine oil, brake fluid, transmission fluid, antifreeze,
batteries, and tyres should be disposed by using the local
Authorised waste disposal facilities, or have them disposed
of by the vendor who is under a statutory obligation to do so
when you replace them
• None of these items should be placed in the household
recycling bins or poured into the sewage system
• Everyone should be concerned about environmental
protection
• Help by doing your share
• When a strong multi-purpose, acid, or alkaline detergent is
used to clean up the surface of the painted body, side
mirrors, windshield, plastic mouldings or leather, changes,
fading of colours or rusting can happen
• When the windshield is cleaned with an oil-contained or
waxed towel, strange sounds and vibrations may occur on
the windshield surface when the wipers are operating. Also,
decreased visibility, reflection at night, or poor removal of
water on the windshield may happen. Do not clean the
windshield with an oil-contained or waxed towel
• An abrasive detergent may damage the painted surface of
your vehicle, including the bumper. Do not buff or polish your
