10 STARTING AND DRIVING THE VEHICLE
10.1 Safety Tips - Before Starting your Vehicle
• Before starting the vehicle, inspect the inside and outside of the vehicle and look
for any damages, leaks, loose parts, foreign objects/debris. Contact an
Authorized Mahindra Dealer if required.
• Before starting your journey, check the working of all safety devices/components
especially brakes, steering, lamps, signals and tires. In case you suspect any
system/devices not working properly contact Authorized Mahindra Dealer.
• Adjust the seat, headrest (if equipped), steering wheel and fasten the seat belt as
described in this manual. Never perform any adjustments when the vehicle is in
motion.
• Start the vehicle only when seated and belted in the driver's seat.
• Ensure that the rear view mirror (if equipped) and both the ORVM’s are adjusted
for an unobstructed view of the road behind.
• Have someone observe and confirm normal operation of all exterior lamps while
you work on the controls from the driver seat. Also, check functioning of all lamps
in the instrument panel.
• Check all doors are properly closed and locked, both from inside and outside.
The Engine Management System controls the engine's idle speed. When the
engine starts, idle RPM runs higher than normal in order to warm the engine.
The engine idle speed RPM reduces once the engine warms up.
Never start your vehicle in a closed garage or in an enclosed area. Exhaust
fumes can be toxic. Always keep the garage door open or start the engine in an
open area.
10.2 Ignition Switch
The different positions of the ignition switch are;
LOCK — This is the ignition and steering lock position. The vehicle circuits and engine
is completely switched OFF. The steering wheel is also locked and the key can be
removed from the ignition only in this position.
ACC — In this position all electrical circuits are enabled with the engine in OFF mode.
The steering is unlocked and can be rotated. Use this mode when you want to listen
to music, use the wipers, etc., with the engine temporarily switched OFF..
ON — This is the ignition ON position. All electrical circuits are enabled. Some of the
warning or information lamps will illuminate in this position. While some of the lamps
will go out after a few seconds, few will continue to remain ON till the engine is
started. When the vehicle is being driven, ignition switch remains in the ON position.
