WARNING
Do not leave the key inside the
car.
Do not leave children unattended
in the car.
Avoid parking the car over
inflammable materials, such as
dry leaves, grass etc., as the
exhaust system is hot enough to
initiate ‘FIRE’.
NOTICE
When parking on a steep slope,
do not rely on the parking brake
alone to hold the vehicle. Leave
the vehicle parked with gear box
in low forward gear when facing
uphill and reverse gear when
facing downhill.
Parking
Park the car in a safe place.
Apply the parking brake.
Ensure that all window glasses are
closed & all lamps are turned ‘OFF’
At night, put on the parking lights if
required.
The non-booster type braking
system may not be fitted in the
Standard model, while the CX and
LX models are provided with
booster-assisted braking system.
The booster and non-booster
versions provide similar braking
performance for the vehicle.
However, the amount of braking effort
required by the driver to activate the
brakes would be lesser in the brake-
booster models.
Gear Shifting :
The gearshift pattern is shown on the
gear shift lever knob. All forward
gears being synchronized, provide
easy and effortless gear shifting.
Always remember to press the clutch
pedal fully while shifting the gears
and also to release the clutch pedal
gently.
Avoid sudden clutching i.e. abrupt
release of depressed clutch pedal.
NOTICE
The reverse gear should be
engaged only when the car is
stationary. Wait for 5 seconds after
de clutching to ensure smooth
engagement of the reverse gear.
Braking
The distance required to bring a car
to a halt increase with the speed of
the vehicle. The braking distance
needed for vehicle at 60 kmph will be
approximately 4 times greater than the
braking distance needed at 30 kmph.
Anticipate your stop, slowdown
gradually and apply brake.
If water gets into the brake drums,
brake performance may become poor
and unpredictable. After driving through
water or washing the underside of the
vehicle, test the brake while driving at
slow speed to see if they have
maintained there normal
effectiveness. If the brakes are less
effective than normal, dry them by
repeatedly applying the brake while
driving slowly until the brakes have
regained their normal effectiveness.
