16. Never attempt any repairs or adjustments to any component while the vehicle
is in motion. Always switch off the engine, and wait for the engine to come to a
complete stop before performing any repairs or adjustments
17. The vehicle identification plates are the only legal identification reference,
hence it is necessary to keep them in good condition. Never modify data on
the plates or remove them. The customer is responsible for any possible
tampering with the plates, which will immediately void the warranty
18. Do not attempt sharp turns, abrupt maneuvers, or other unsafe driving
actions that can cause loss of vehicle control. When the vehicle is fully loaded,
drive at a slow speed, especially when turning. Note that the center of gravity
of the vehicle increases as the vehicle is fully loaded on the roof carrier

1.4 To Owner’s of a Mahindra Vehicle
When first driving the vehicle after long periods of non-use, you may experience a
temporary drive disturbance. This is a characteristic of the tires and should be no
reason for concern. The condition should correct itself within 5-15 kms. of driving. If
the disturbance persists, have the tires checked by an Authorized Mahindra Dealer.
Driving and Alcohol
Your driving ability can be seriously impaired by alcohol even if the blood alcohol level
is far below the legal minimum. Drunken driving is one of the most frequent causes
of accidents.
Never drink and drive. Drinking and driving will lead to an accident resulting in
serious personal injury.
Driving and Drugs/Medication
Your driving ability can be seriously impaired through the use of prescription or non-
prescription drugs or medication (even cough syrup). If you are taking any sort of
drug or medication, be sure that it will not affect your driving ability.
Mobile Phone Warning
Use of electrical devices such as mobile phones, computers, portable radios or other
by the driver while driving is dangerous. Dialing a number on a mobile phone while
driving also ties up the driver's hands. Use of these services will cause the driver to
be distracted and may lead to a serious accident. If a passenger is unable to use the
device, pull off the road to a safe area before use. If use of a mobile phone is
necessary despite this warning, use a hands free system to at least leave the hands
free to drive the vehicle. Never use a mobile phone or other electrical devices while
the vehicle is moving.
Please comply with the legal regulations concerning the use of communication
equipment in vehicles in your country.
Driving Long Distances
When you are driving over long distances, follow these tips so that you have a safe
journey;
• Lack of sleep or fatigue may impact your ability to drive safely
• Exercise your eyes by shifting the focus of your eyes to different parts of the road
• Use stimulating beverages such as coffee or tea
• Relax and stay calm
Protecting Our Environment
Every one of us should play our part in protecting our environment. Judicious vehicle
usage and disposing hazardous waste (including cleaning and lubrication fluids) are
important steps towards this initiative.
