Do not engage four wheel drive mode (4H or 4L)
continuously on dry and hard road surface. It can cause
expensive damage to the vehicle transmission and the
tyres.
Four wheel drive facility is a powerful tool which enables
the vehicle to traverse terrain which is otherwise
inaccessible to two wheel drive vehicles. However, it must
be used judiciously and carefully. Do not take unnecessary
risks and attempt the impossible. Familiarise yourself
thoroughly with the vehicle and its abilities before
attempting serious off road driving.
With ignition ‘ON’ 4H & 4L indicator lamp on panel should
glow for a few seconds only & then go off. Continuous
illumination of 4L & 4H lamps indicates electrical fault.

possibility of rear wheels from locking and achieves optimum
braking in any load condition of the vehicle.
The valve, is fitted on RH long member connecting it to rear

The by-pass valve is provided in the rear brake circuit between
tandem master cylinder and ABS unit. The by-pass valve
bypasses the ABS unit in rear only braking (i.e. front brake
failed) condition. The feedback of front line pressure is
provided to the by-pass valve. in case of front brake failure,
the low front line presure being sensed by the by-pass valve
and the 100% brake line pressure from tandem master
cylinder is applied on to the rear brakes without reduction
in pressure.

DICOR engine common rail system consists of ECU, sensors
and actuators. The Electronic control unit (ECU) is a 32 bit
microprocessor which controls the injection parameters as well
as some of the vehicle related outputs. The ECU receives input
from various sensors located on the engine and the vehicle to
decide the injected quantity and injection timing best suited
for the engine to work with maximum efficiency and safety.
ECU is fitted inside the engine compartment.

from a short circuit or overload. These fuses are located in 2 fuse boxes.
The interior fuse box is below the dash board on driver’s side. Remove
the fuse box lid by grabbing and pulling down the slot.

Checking and Replacing Fuses
If any electrical unit in your vehicle has stopped functioning, the fuses
should be checked first.
1. Turn the ignition key to lock position.
2. Remove the cover of the fuse box.
3. Check each fuse and look for burnt wire inside the fuse. If it is burnt,
replace it with one of the spare fuses of same rating or lower.
4. If the replacement fuse of same rating burns out in short time, there
is probably a serious electrical problem. Get the vehicle attended at
nearest Authorised Workshop.
