9HEATING,VENTILATIONANDAIRCONDITIONINGSYSTEM(HVAC)
9.1Heating,VentilationAndAirConditioningSystem(HVAC)
The climate control system enables you to set the cabin at the desired comfortable condition by controlling airflow, air intake and temperature control. The HVAC
systemalsohelpsindefrostinganddefogging/demistingthewindshieldandwindows.
Engine coolant is utilized to heat the cabin air. For cooling cabin air, an air conditioning circuit based on the vapor compression refrigeration cycle is used. The air
conditioning system uses a refrigerant along with a suitable lubricating oil. Although being nonozone depleting, the refrigerant is a greenhouse gas, hence once
allowedtoescapeintheatmosphere,itadverselyaffectstheenvironmentbycontributingtoglobalwarming/climatechange.

Always be attentive while driving and follow safe driving

practices
Always maintain the recommended inflation pressure in

tires
Always drive at a safe speed appropriate for given driving conditions. You must follow the speed
limits
While backing up, keep a constant lookout for people, particularly children, or other obstructions or hazardous material that might be present behind the
vehicle
Avoid loading any items on the roof that will raise the vehicles center of gravity and make your vehicle more

10.7.2OffRoadDrivingPrecautions
When driving offroad or on rugged terrains, never over speed or make sharp turns. This may cause loss of control or vehicle rollover causing serious
injury
Maintain steering wheel control at all times. Sudden changes in terrain can result in abrupt steering wheel
motion
Do not drive horizontally or diagonally across steep slopes, your vehicle can tip over sideways. Driving straight up or straight down is
preferred

Always perform a maintenance inspection after each day of offroad driving that has taken you through rough terrain, sand, mud or

Do not stop or shut OFF the engine while immersed in water. It helps in preventing water getting inside the exhaust
pipes
When backing down a ramp, do not allow the exhaust tail pipe to be immersed in
water
Water can wash the grease from the wheel bearings, causing rusting and premature failure. It may also enter the differentials, transmission and transfer case,

Water entering the transmission will cause deterioration in shift quality, locking up of your transmission accompanied by vibration, and ultimately damaging the

Sand, mud/sludge that has accumulated in brake drums and around brake discs may affect braking efficiency. This may also damage brake system components.

When driving through water, traction or brake capability may be limited. Always perform a maintenance inspection after each day of offroad driving that has
takenyouthroughwater
If the water is swift flowing and rising (as in storm runoff) avoid crossing until the water level recedes and/or the flow rate is
reduced
Determine the exit point(s) that are downstream of your entry point to compensate for

After going offroad, it is always a good idea to check for damage. Completely inspect the underbody of the vehicle for any
damages
Check for accumulations of plants or bushes. These could be a fire hazard. They might also hide damage to fuel lines, brake tubes/hoses,
etc.
Inspect all the tubes/hoses and check for any fluid

leakages
Get heat exchangers (radiator and condenser)

cleaned
Check threaded fasteners for looseness, particularly on the chassis, drive train components, steering, suspension and brakes. Retighten them, if required, and
torquetothevaluesspecifiedintheRepairManual
Abrasive material in any part of the brakes may cause excessive wear or unpredictable braking. You might not have full braking power when needed leading to

After driving through deep water, inspect your vehicle fluids and lubricants (engine oil, transmission/transfer case/axle oils) to ensure the fluids have not been

Warming up a vehicle on cold mornings is not required and may reduce fuel
economy
While idling put the gear shift lever in the neutral

position
Resting your foot on the clutch pedal while driving may reduce fuel
economy
Combine errands and minimize stopandgo

driving
Keep tires properly inflated. It is recommended to check your tire pressure in the morning when the tyre is
cold
Use recommended engine oil. Refer to the Maintenance Section for specifications and
capacities
Replace the fuel filter and air filter at the recommended

intervals
Shift gears at the recommended speeds and rpm bands only. Refer to the gear shifting speed table for further
details
Control the maximum speed between 90 to 100 kmph in 5th gear to achieve the best fuel
efficiency
Follow the recommended maintenance schedule and perform the owner maintenance checks
recommended
Heavily loading a vehicle or towing a trailer will reduce fuel

economy
Carrying unnecessary weight may reduce fuel
