Examine the edges of the belt for cracks or fraying. 4 5 6 2 10-11mm Check the tension of the belt by pushing on it with your thumb midway between the pulleys for the alternator belt, power steering pump belt and A.C. compressor belt. If the belt tension is not proper i.e. it gets deflected more than specified, get it attended to at the nearest Authorised Service outlet.
MAINTENANCE & CAR CARE Fuel Filter Changing Fuel Filter Element : The fuel filter is transparent and located near the fuel tank (under the body). Inspect and replace the fuel filter at specified intervals. Replace the fuel filter if dirt is observed in it. The fuel filter should be replaced at any Authorised Service outlet as the fuel system is under pressure and petrol can spurt out from fuel line connections.
MAINTENANCE & CAR CARE Petrol Fuel Filling Cap PETROL FUEL FILLING : The fuel filler cap is located on the left rear side of the car. The fuel filler lid can be unlocked by pulling the opening lever located on the out-board side of the driver's seat and locked by simply closing the lid. Remove the fuel filler cap slowly. The fuel may be under pressure & may spray out, causing injury if the cap is opened suddenly. The fuel cap is of the non vented type. Use correct genuine cap for replacement.
MAINTENANCE & CAR CARE LPG Fuel Filling LPG FILLING : LPG filler valve is located at the rear on the right hand body side of your car. LPG filling will stop automatically once the LPG tank is filled to 80% of its capacity. The LPG cylinder capacity of your car is 31 litres. If the LPG is filled after service / repairs of the LPG system, please check all joints for leakage by applying soap solution or by using an electronic instrument. Example -‘Leakator - 10’. or equivalent.
MAINTENANCE & CAR CARE Transaxle Transaxle Oil : Checking of Oil Level : 1. Clean the oil level plug and the surrounding area. 2. Remove the oil level plug and check whether oil is dripping out. The oil level must not be below the filler plug. Add oil to bring it to the required level. 3. Tighten the oil level plug to 3 - 4 mkg. torque. Changing Oil in Transaxle : 1. Let the engine idle for about 5 min. in neutral gear, so that the Transaxle is warmed up. 2.
MAINTENANCE & CAR CARE CLUTCH : Your car is provided with a single plate dry friction diaphragm type, pre-loaded release bearing clutch which is mechanically actuated by a cable connecting the clutch pedal & the clutch release lever. There is no free play in the system and hence no clutch pedal free play adjustment is required although the clutch pedal height from the floor has to be adjusted as clutch lining wears. The clutch pedal height from the floor keeps on increasing as the clutch lining wears.
MAINTENANCE & CAR CARE Clutch & Brakes NOTE : Vacuum Assistance : The hydraulic brake system of your car is assisted by a vacuum booster which reduced the effort of driver during braking. In the unlikely event of disruption in supply of vacuum to the booster (e.g. stoppage of engine, or failure of vacuum hose) this assistance will still be available but only for one or two brake applications to bring the vehicle to a stop.
MAINTENANCE & CAR CARE 9. Tighten bleed screw and remove tube. 10. Replace dust cap on bleed screw. 11. Repeat same procedure on rear right, front right and then rear left. 12. If bleeding continues without success it means air is being drawn in past the bleed screw threads. 13. Close bleed screw at the end of each downward stroke of pedal. 14. Allow pedal to return fully and slowly. 15. Tighten bleed screw finally after last downward stroke of pedal. 16. Replace the dust cap on the bleed screw. 17.
MAINTENANCE & CAR CARE Clutch & Brakes 4. Adjust brake light switch, gap of 3 mm to be maintained as shown in the fig. after loosening the lock nut on the switch. Tighten the nut after adjustment. This should be done with brake pedal in complete released condition. Do not apply tightening force over the switch body/terminal block as it may damage the switch. Electrical supply for brake lights is 'ON' without ignition switch. Under normal condition the switch shall be 'OFF' and the lights are not glowing.
MAINTENANCE & CAR CARE Brake Fluid & Power Steering Brake Fluid : Check the level of brake fluid in the brake fluid container. It should be between the Min. and Max. marks. If not, then add brake fluid. Clean the area surrounding the cap before opening the cap. Always use fresh brake fluid and tighten the cap fully, otherwise moisture from the atmosphere will be absorbed by the brake fluid, making it unserviceable.
MAINTENANCE & CAR CARE Procedure for Oil Filling and Bleeding of Power Steering (Ensure that the Power Steering fluid reservoir is clean before starting any work) 1. Fill the reservoir till it is nearly full, when the system is newly installed otherwise fill up to 'Max' mark on reservoir. Crank the engine for 10 seconds without allowing it to start (if possible). If engine does start, shut the engine immediately. Check & refill the reservoir.
MAINTENANCE & CAR CARE 6. Once the system is bled properly and free from foaming, there should not be any appreciable change in the oil level in the reservoir, when the engine is started or stopped repeatedly. 7. Now the car is ready to be driven. Final oil level should be upto 'Max' mark of reservoir. Do not allow fluid level to drop significantly or run out of the reservoir during the above operation. This may induce air into the system.
MAINTENANCE & CAR CARE Battery Use a proper wrench to loosen and remove cables from the terminals. Always disconnect the negative (-ve) cable first and reconnect it last. Clean the battery terminals with a terminal cleaning tool or wire brush. Reconnect and tighten the cables, coat the terminals with petroleum jelly. If you need to connect the battery to a charger, disconnect both cables to prevent damage to the vehicle’s electrical system.
MAINTENANCE & CAR CARE Battery Starting the Engine with Jump Leads : The engine with a discharged battery may be started by transferring electrical power from a battery in another car. This may be dangerous as any deviation from the following instructions could lead to personal injury resulting from any battery explosion, as well as damage to the electrical systems in both cars. Do not allow battery electrolyte to come in contact with eyes, skin, fabrics or painted surfaces.
MAINTENANCE & CAR CARE Catalytic Converter Catalytic Converter : The catalytic converter is fitted on your car to reduce exhaust pollution. The catalytic converter will quickly heat up after starting to ensure that it operates correctly during the warm up phase of the engine. On a car with a catalytic converter, the fuel tank filler neck is of reduced diameter compatible with standard unleaded petrol supply nozzle. Even one time use of leaded petrol may cause permanent damage to the catalytic converter.
MAINTENANCE & CAR CARE Spark Plug Parking Warning : Avoid parking the vehicle over inflammable materials, such as dry leaves, grass, etc., as the exhaust system is hot enough to initiate "FIRE". SPARK PLUG (Petrol Engine) : Spark Plug - Champion / MICO* Spark Plug No. - C9YC / FR 6 DC 4 Spark Plug Gap - 0.7 mm to 0.8 mm You should inspect the spark plugs periodically for carbon deposits. When carbon accumulates on the spark plug, a strong spark will not be produced.
MAINTENANCE & CAR CARE Carbon Canister CARBON CANISTER As petrol evaporates in the fuel tank, hydrocarbons are discharged into the atmosphere. The carbon canister stores these hydrocarbons from the fuel tank. Air drawn through the carbon canister into the engine should be controlled to maintain exhaust emissions within desired limits as well as to ensure good driveability. The carbon canister should be replaced at an Authorised Service outlet.
