ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION Taking Care of the Environment

T aking care of the Environment Tata Motors is committed to producing cars using

environmental friendly technology. A number of features have been incorporated in our passenger cars which are specifically designed to ensure environmental compatibility throughout the life cycle of the car. W e would like to inform you that your car meets Emission norms and is being regularly validated at the manufacturing stages to keep up with the stringent emission norms.

As a user you too can protect the environment by operating your car in a proactive manner. A lot depends on your driving style and the way you maintain your car. Listed below are few tips that will help you do so.

WHILE DRIVING :

Avoid frequent and violent acceleration.

Do not carry any unnecessary weight on the vehicle

as it overloads the engine. Avoid using devices requiring high power consumption

during slow traffic condition. It is not advisable to warm up the engine during the

first start of the day by idling, as cold temperatures

within the engine could cause rise in the emission such as CO & HC particulate.

Monitor the car’s fuel consumption regularly . If it shows

a rising trend get the car immediately attended to at the T A T A MOTORS Authorised Service Centre.

Switch off the engine during long stops at traffic jams

or signals. If you need to keep the engine running, avoid unnecessarily revving or stopping and starting.

Use only unleaded fuel in petrol cars.

It is not necessary to rev up the engine before turning

it off as it unnecessarily burns the fuel. For petrol cars switch off the ignition only when engine

is at idling and when the vehicle is stationary , not when the vehicle is running.

Shift to higher gears as soon as it is possible. Use

each gear upto 2/3rd of it’s maximum engine speed. A chart indicating gear shifting speeds is given in this book.

MAINTENANCE OF THE CAR :

Ensure that recommended maintenance is carried out

on the car regularly at the T A T A MOTORS Authorised Service Outlets.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION Taking Care of the Environment

As soon as you notice any leakage of oil or fuel in the

car we recommend that you get it attended immediately .

Use only recommended brands and grades of

lubricants & coolants and clean/uncontaminated fuels. Get your vehicle checked for emission periodically

by our authorised dealer and regularly renew the P.U.C. Certificate.

Ensure that fuel filter, oil filter , breathers are periodically

checked and if required, replace the same using only genuine recommended brands.

Do not pour used oils or coolants into sewage drains,

garden soil or open streams. Dispose of the used filters and batteries in compliance with the current legislation.

Do not allow any unauthorised person to tamper with

the engine settings or to carry out modifications on the car.

Never allow the vehicle to run out of fuel. This will

result in misfiring of the engine and could cause harm to the catalytic converter .

Parts like brake liners and clutch disc should be

vacuum cleaned. Do not use compressed air for cleaning these parts which may spread the dust in the atmosphere.

While carrying out the servicing or repairs of your car, you should pay keen attention to some of the important engine aggregates which greatly affect emission. These components are :-

1. Fuel pump, Injectors / LPG Fuel System

2. Air intake & Exhaust system especially for leakages

3. Cylinder head for valve leakage

4. All filters such as air, oil & fuel filters (check periodically)

5. Catalytic converter

6. Ignition system - Spark plug gap

This Owner’s Manual & Service Book contains further information on driving precautions and maintenance care leading to environment protection. Please familiarise yourself with these aspects before driving.

INTRODUCTION

In addition to the full capacity of petrol the Indica Xeta now comes with LPG as additional fuel choice.

WHAT IS LPG?

LPG or Liquefied Petroleum Gas is a safe and environment friendly fuel. It is a liquid under pressure and turns into gaseous state when exposed to the atmospheric pressure.

LPG is a non-toxic, non-corrosive; lead-free gas and is produced by refinery fractionation of oil or is stripped from naturally occurring Natural Gas.

LPG fuel system and the components are as safe as those in other fuel systems.

For LPG operation, press the Fuel Selector Switch provided on the dashboard, for approximately 3 seconds. The fuel change over happens automatically .

The switching between fuels (Petrol-LPG-Petrol) can be done at any time, even on the move.

Your car always starts in petrol / auto mode only. Hence it is a must to have petrol at all times during running.

WARNING

DO NOT USE DOMESTIC GAS CYLINDERS IN CAR

because…

• Domestic cylinders are NOT designed for Car

application and this makes them vulnerable in a crash situation.

• The chemical composition of domestic LPG is different

from that of Auto LPG, which may lead to premature failure of engine and its related components

• The gas outlet ‘valve’ arrangement on the domestic

cylinder doesn’t meet the car fuel supply standards and hence makes them more dangerous in the car. For example the valve is not provided with excess flow protection.This means that if the valve or supply line gets disconnected in a crash situation, there will be an uncontrolled flow of LPG into the car interior.

• When using domestic gas cylinder, your car’s engine

gets less supply of fuel when load on engine is increased (e.g. while climbing a ghat). This is because the cylinder cannot supply adequate LPG from the tank to the engine.

ST ARTING THE ENGINE

Irrespective of the position of the Selector switch (Petrol or LPG), your car’s engine will always starts using petrol by default and switch over to LPG later incase of LPG mode.

To start, turn the ignition “ON” and crank without pressing accelerator pedal.

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.

LPG TANK CAP ACITY

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’).

NOTICE

Keep the Ignition switch in “OFF” condition during LPG refilling

KNOW YOUR INDICA LPG

NOTICE

1. In case of fuel mode switching from Petrol to LPG

mode during normal running, initially the LEDs toggle indicating the transition and when the LED glows permenantly, this indicates the completion of the transition to the required fuel mode.

2. Fast toggling of the LEDs (amber to red) indicates fault in the LPG system. Car will automatically switch to Petrol mode. Please get car checked/repaired at the nearest Authorised T ATA service center.

3. Very slow toggling of the LEDs (amber to red) indicates the empty tank / no LPG supply (loss of pressure). Get the LPG tank re-filled.

LEVEL INDICA TOR

A multivalve is mounted on the LPG tank that also has a gauge that shows LPG level in the tank. LPG level can also be known by the three green coloured lights on the Fuel Selector Switch. When the LPG tank is full, all three green lights will glow. As the level of LPG goes down, the green lights will also go off one by one.

NOTE : The LED indication is an additional indication of LPG quantity in tank.
