WARNING
ESP is just a driving aid; it cannot
enhance your vehicle’s stability in all
conditions and does not control your
car’s entire braking system. It is still
your responsibility to drive and corner
at reasonable speeds and leave a
sufficient margin of safety. Always use
precautionary measures for safe
driving by slowing down on curved,
snowy or icy roads.
ESP and tyre sizes:
If you drive your vehicle with a non
specified tyres or wheel sizes, the ESP
system may not work properly. When
replacing tyres, always ensure to use
only recommended tyre sizes.
ELECTRONIC STABILITY PROGRAM (ESP)
Electronic Stability Program (if
equipped):
The Electronic Stability Program (ESP)
monitors information from various
vehicle sensors and then compares the
driver’s commands with actual behavior
of the vehicle. If an unstable condition
occurs like a sudden evasive movement,
ESP intervenes within fraction of
seconds via Engine Control Unit, Brake
system & TOD Transfer case (if
equipped) and attempts to stabilize the
vehicle. ESP also assists in maintaining
traction while accelerating on loose or
slippery road surfaces.
CAUTION
In case of an ESP system failure the
warning lamp will illuminate in
instrument cluster. In that case please
pullover the vehicle to the side of road
and switch off the ignition and restart.
If the fault persists, your ESP system
may not be working properly,take the
vehicle carefully to the nearest TATA
authorised Service station for repair.
NOTE
Durning Engine Cranking ESP
warning lamps might glow for a few
seconds.
ESP Indicators :
When ignition is turned ON, the ESP
indicator on the instrument cluster glows
for a few seconds and goes OFF. If the
ESP indicator does not come ON or
remains ON when the ignition is turned
ON, there may be a fault in the ESP
system. In such a case, please take your
vehicle to a Tata Authorized Service
station immediately.
