2.1 ELECTRIC VEHICLE SYSTEM
2.1 ELECTRIC VEHICLE SYSTEM
Electric vehicle operates differently compared to
an internal combustion engine vehicles as it is
powered by battery power pack. Car battery
must be charged with electricity before driving it.
As car is driven, stored energy in battery pack
gradually decreases and if discharged completely
to 0% then will not drive until battery pack is
recharged. Charging time varies depending on
state of charge in car and ambient conditions.
Normal charge time is
5 hours.
An auxiliary 12V battery in car, enables to wake
up car in case ‘Vacation Mode’ is activated in car
at idle condition.
Battery pack powers drive motor and car is
equipped with regenerative electric braking and
vacuum assisted hydraulic brakes.
Electric car is an eco friendly vehicle that does not
release any noxious emissions like carbon
monoxide, carbon dioxide & nitrogen oxide.
For preventing damage to the Li-ion
battery pack:
1. Do not expose to very high
temperatures for longer duration.
2. Do not use car battery for any other
purpose, consult your dealer or
manufacturer for help.
CAUTION
The vehicle has sealed Li-ion battery
pack. Improper disposal of battery
could lead to risk of severe burns and
electrical shock that may result in
serious injury or death and also may
cause damage to environment.
WARNING
Always check available energy for your
required travel distance by checking ‘state of
charge’ and also ‘distance to empty’. When
ever charge level goes below 15%, the SOC
bar starts blinking giving an indication to user
to drive carefully to reach destination. If
charge level drops below 10%, car will drive in
‘POWER SAVE MODE’ reducing car
performance and automatically turns off
airconditioning.
Vehicle has ‘REVive’ feature that can be
enabled if energy level drops below 10%
‘State of Charge’.
Battery pack will get discharged when it is
parked idle for long time. Hence activate
‘Vacation Mode’ via mobile application to
optimize charge level and avoid deep
discharge.
EV Overview

2.2 WARNING & CAUTION
Vehicle uses a 48 volts battery system.
Some of systems could be hot before &
after their usage. Hence pay attention
and follow warning labels located at
places in vehicle.
Never try to access, remove parts /
cables / connectors which can cause
shock or severe burns or result in serious
injury. 48 voltage cables are colour coded
in Orange & systems are not user
serviceable. For any maintenance,
contact your authorised service center.
In event of accident:
1. If vehicle is in drivable condition,
move vehicle off the road, park &
switch off drive system.
2. Check for any exposed 48 volts cables /
parts. To do so check picture
indicating voltage layout of the
system. Never touch any exposed 48
volts wiring & avoid any possible
electric shock.
WARNING
3. In case of any high impact on to
battery compartment floor area, do
stop at safe location & check floor
area for leaks or damages that can
cause fire. In case of fire in EV
(electric vehicle), leave vehicle
immediately. Only use ABC, BC or C
type of fire extinguishers
recommended for electrical fire
hazards.
For any reason to tow vehicle, do it
with recovery vehicle support. In event
of not doing so, drive motor may
generate electricity, can cause damage
to EV components and may result in
fire.
If vehicle cannot be assessed for extent of
damage, do not touch vehicle and contact
nearest authorised service center or
customer care executive for support. To any
requirements of body repair due to
accidents, vehicle should be delivered to
authorised service center to evaluate
damage & take necessary precautions.
Damaged Li-ion battery modules could pose
safety risks to untrained technicians & repair
person.
Special Attention:
! Make sure to turn off drive system before
leaving vehicle.
! Engage parking brake prior to getting out
of the vehicle.
! Do not allow untrained person to access
EV system and apprise immediate
responders in any events that this is an
electric vehicle.
CAUTION

2.3 NOTES
EV Overview
NOTES:
! Vehicle will not run with completely
discharged battery. At low SOC avoid
repeated acceleration resulting in more
energy consumption that can be avoided by
gradual acceleration and maintaining steady
speed.
! Driving in down gradient, when accelerator
pedal is released, regenerative brakes will
provide some energy to recharge battery pack
and simultaneously assists in deceleration of
vehicle assisting in vehicle control.
! Brake should be applied to slow down or stop
vehicle in drive.
! You may hear some sound and feel vibration in
drive that are normal.
a) Drive motor makes small sound during its
operation, also will be higher in
deceleration of vehicle.
b) Brake vacuum pump makes sound during
braking operation.
c) Contactor makes sound when vehicle is
switched on and authentication.
d) In AC cooling, motor and condenser fan
comes on during operation.
NOTES
! In event of battery temperature is below
0°C or less, battery pack will not accept
charge, hence park your car at warm
climatic condition.
! In event of battery temperature is below
-5°C, car will not drive, hence park at
warm location.
! Performance of battery will decrease
with time and usage and does not
indicate any defect in battery pack.
! Battery pack has limited life and when its
charge holding capacity reaches below
specific level, it may require an
inspection from service persons and
may need battery pack replacement.
! It is recommended and mandatory that
during process of battery or vehicle /
components disposal, owner should
contact authorised dealer for guidance
and information on recycling or proper
disposal without causing any
environmental pollution.
! During drive as the charge level drops
below 20%, car will drive in ‘E’
(ECONOMY) mode limiting drive power.
Further if charge level drops below 10%,
car will drive in ‘L’ (LIMP HOME) mode
with POWER SAVE MODE message on
cluster. If heater or AC is ON, will get
turned off, blower continues to work.
! Driving in ‘B’ mode with high
acceleration will result in more power
consumption reducing your drive range.
