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, steering wheel and fasten the seat belt as described in this manual. Never perform any
seat/ steering adjustments when the vehicle is in motion.

Start the vehicle only when seated and belted in the driver's seat.
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.

Ensure that the rear view mirror and both the ORVM’s are adjusted for an unobstructed view of the road behind.
