1.2 INGLO Platform
INGLO is an ‘electric-origin’ Architecture. Unlike many mainstream EVs adapted from traditional combustion-engine designs, INGLO was built exclusively for electric vehicles. This difference fundamentally changes the way the vehicle performs and feels.
INGLO was designed with modularity, scalability, and versatility.
This electric-origin approach also enables us to design one of the lightest skateboard structures in the industry, paired with high-density battery technology. This foundation allows us to optimize every inch of space, enhance stability, and maximize performance, which means you, our customers, will experience a drive that is lighter, more agile, and yet incredibly spacious and comfortable.
Graphic
1.3 Vehicle Power and Charging Information
Your BE 6 is equipped with a high-voltage (HV) battery pack, approximately 409 V/307 V, which powers the vehicle. The vehicle must be charged before driving, as the battery stores energy needed for operation.
Once the ignition is turned ON, the battery begins to discharge gradually. If the battery charge is depleted completely (0%), the vehicle will not be able to drive until the battery is recharged.
Charging times may vary based on the current state of charge (SOC) of the battery and environmental conditions. For detailed information on how to charge the battery, please refer to the "Charging" section.
Your vehicle features an Integrated Electronic Booster with ABS and ESP, along with regenerative braking for added efficiency.
Your vehicle is eco-friendly and produces no toxic emissions, such as carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, or nitrogen oxide.
Since the electric motor is quiet, you may hear sounds from the tires, wind, and other external sources. During charging, you might also hear noises from the fan, compressor, contactor, and relay.
Always check and ensure enough SOC is available in the HV battery before starting the journey. Verify the same with the help of "State of charge (SOC)" & "Range" values displayed in the Driver Information Display (DID).
It is recommended to let the vehicle reach a full 100% state of charge (SoC) before ending the charging session.
Pay special attention to the pedestrians since there is no engine noise. The pedestrian may not know that the vehicle is approaching or moving or about to move, and can step into the path of vehicle travel.
Virtual Engine Sound Simulators (VESS) available in the vehicle can be enabled for more safety. Refer “Virtual Engine Sound Simulators (VESS)” content for more details.
For preventing damage to the HV battery pack:
•  Never allow the HV battery to be fully discharged.
•  Discharging the HV battery to 0% may cause damage to vehicle components. Persistent deep discharges can cause permanent battery degradation.
•  Do not leave the vehicle at 100% SOC for prolonged periods, as it may reduce battery longevity.
•  Always charge in a well- ventilated area, away from flammable materials.
•  Do not use the Battery as a stationary power source. This will void the warranty.
•  Do not expose the vehicle to very high or freezing temperatures for longer duration.
•  Do not use High-Voltage (HV) battery for any other purpose, consult your Mahindra Authorised or manufacturer for help.
If you let the battery discharge to 0%, other components may be damaged or need to be replaced (Ex., Low voltage battery).
In these cases, you are liable for repair and/or transportation costs.
The warranty does not cover discharge-related expenses.
BE 6 uses high voltage and current. Failure to follow the proper handling instructions may cause serious injury or death.
BE 6 cannot be push started or tow-started. Attempting to do so may cause internal power train/ motor damage.
BE 6 uses high voltage systems, these systems may be hot during charging & driving, also sometimes in shut off condition. Be careful of both the high voltage and the high temperature. Obey the labels that are attached to the vehicle.
Never disassemble, remove or replace high-voltage parts and cables as well as their connectors. High voltage cables are colored orange.
Connecting unauthorized electrical accessories is not recommended.
Disassembling, removing or replacing HV components or cables can cause severe burns or electric shock that may result in serious injury or death. The vehicle high voltage system has no user serviceable parts. Take your vehicle to the Mahindra Authorized Dealer for any necessary maintenance/repair.
•  Ensure to apply the parking brake before turning off the ignition and take the key out of the vehicle before leaving.
•  Always engage the parking brake before getting out of the vehicle
•  Strictly do not allow untrained / non designated people to access EV system and appraise first responders that this vehicle is an Electric Vehicle,  in case of any kind of unexpected incident/ events
•  The vehicle will not run with completely discharged battery. At low SOC avoid continuous & (frequent acceleration and deceleration) this will result in higher energy consumption. Try to maintain a steady speed with moderate acceleration for getting the maximum efficiency.
•  Driving in down gradient, when accelerator pedal is released, regenerative braking will provide some energy to recharge battery pack and simultaneously assists in deceleration.
•  You may hear some sounds and feel vibrations during the drive this is normal;
–  Traction motor makes lighter sound during its operation, also will be higher in deceleration of vehicle.
–  The HV contactor produces a ‘tak’ noise when the vehicle is switched ON or OFF.
–  AC compressor makes sound while in operation
•  If the ambient temperature is between –10 °C to 0 °C, there will be a considerable increase in charging time, also performance drop during drive
•  The Performance of battery will decrease with time and usage. This does not indicate any defect in the battery pack.
•  Once the HV battery pack has reached its end of life, its charge holding capacity reaches below specific level, it may require an inspection from Mahindra Authorised Dealer and may require battery pack replacement.
•  It is recommended and mandatory that during the process of battery or vehicle / components disposal, the owner should contact Mahindra Authorised Dealer for guidance and information on recycling or proper disposal without causing any environmental pollution.
If the vehicle cannot be assessed for extent of damage, do not touch vehicle and contact nearest Authorized service center or the customer care executive for Mahindra support.
Don’t carry out any welding work on vehicle outside Mahindra Authorised Dealer.
Any repair, servicing, or modification outside Mahindra-authorized service centers may void your warranty for those affected systems.
1.4 Additional Safety Precautions
1. In BE 6 “Drive enable” does not get activated and vehicle will not move unless charge gun is unplugged from charge port.
2. It is recommended to apply park brake before switching OFF the ignition and before leaving the vehicle.
3. The vehicle should be driven within 20 kmph speed on speed breakers and rough roads to avoid damage to the battery pack under the vehicle.

4 Seats and Safety
4.1 Important Safety Precautions
Always wear your seat belt
All occupants, including the driver, should always wear their seat belt no matter how short the trip in order to minimize the risk of severe injury in the event of a crash. Failure to wear a seat belt significantly increases the risk of serious injury or fatality in an accident.
In an accident, an unbelted passenger be projectiled, and can cause serious injury to himself or another passenger.
Pregnant women must also wear seat belts after consultation with the doctor for specific recommendations.
Airbag Hazards
Airbags are critical safety devices, but they can pose hazards if mishandled or improperly used. Airbags are supplementary safety systems and are not a substitute for seat belts. Rapid deployment with significant force can cause injuries, especially to occupants seated too close, unbelted, or improperly positioned, including children and shorter adults.
Chemical exposure from deployment residues can irritate the skin, eyes, and respiratory system. To minimize hazards, always use seat belts, maintain proper seating positions, deactivate airbags during servicing, and follow safety protocols. Never place a rear-facing child seat in the front passenger seat unless the airbag is deactivated. Doing so can result in serious injury or death if the airbag deploys.
Driver distraction
Driver distraction occurs when a driver’s attention is diverted from the primary task of operating a vehicle, compromising safety. It can stem from visual distractions like looking at a phone, manual distractions such as adjusting controls, or cognitive distractions like daydreaming or conversing.
Common sources include mobile devices, infotainment systems, eating, and external events. Driver distraction can lead to loss of vehicle control, collisions, serious injury, or death. Distracted driving increases the risk of accidents, as reaction times slow and situational awareness diminishes. To mitigate this risk, drivers should minimize in-vehicle distractions, use hands-free devices sparingly, and maintain focus on the road to ensure their safety and that of others.
Mahindra is shall not be held liable for accidents resulting from driver distraction or failure to follow safe driving practices.
Control your speed
Controlling your speed is essential for safe driving, as excessive speed reduces reaction time, increases stopping distance, and magnifies the severity of collisions. Adhering to speed limits ensures better vehicle control, especially in adverse weather, heavy traffic, or around curves and intersections. Driving at a safe and appropriate speed helps accommodate unexpected hazards, such as pedestrians or sudden stops, and improves fuel efficiency. Always adjust your speed based on road conditions, visibility, and traffic flow to protect yourself, passengers, and others on the road.
Unauthorized modifications to seats, seat belts, airbags, or child restraint systems may compromise safety. Mahindra shall not be held liable for injuries or damages resulting from improper alterations or misuse. Always follow this Owner’s Manual and consult Mahindra authorized service centers before modifying safety components. Carefully review the terms of your warranty for exclusions as contained in the Warranty and Service Information Guide.
The images in this Owner’s Manual are representative and may vary depending on the vehicle model, software version, and specifications.
Always take into account the road conditions, weather conditions, vehicles’ speed in order to prevent accidents.
Turn ‘ON’ the side indicators at least 30 meters before taking a turn or changing the lane.
Decelerate to a safe speed before taking turn. Do not apply brakes during cornering.
When overtaking other vehicles, watch out for the oncoming vehicle.
Never drive under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
If your vehicle is equipped with infotainment/ navigation system, set and make changes to your travel route only when the vehicle is parked.
If your car gets flooded and has soaked carpeting or water on the flooring, you should not try to start the vehicle, we recommend to kindly contact M&M authorized service centre.
Even with the presence of airbags, it is essential for the driver and passengers to wear seat belts at all times to reduce the risk and severity of injuries in the event of a collision.
Safe Driving depends on a combination of attentive driving habits, following traffic rules & signals, properly maintaining vehicle condition, and being aware of your surrounding situations based on the traffic, weather and road conditions.
4.2 Seats
Vehicle seats are designed to provide comfort, support, and safety for occupants during travel.

It also have advanced features like Seat ventilation, USB charging and BYOD docking
4.2.1 Sitting in Correct Position
Graphic
Follow the tips below for a comfortable and safe journey:
•  Sit in an upright position with the base of your spine pressed against the seat back
•  The driver and front passenger seat head restraint has 4 positions. Adjust it as close as possible to the above specified position, with the top of the head restraint even with the top of your head
•  Maintain sufficient distance between yourself and the steering wheel. Maintain at least a Ten inch (10") distance from the centre of the steering wheel to your chest
•  The top curve of the steering wheel should align with your chin for ideal road visibility
•  Adjust your seat and seat back angle such that your wrists rest on the steering wheel
•  Ensure your legs are in bent position while fully depressing the brake and accelerator pedals.
The seat should be adjusted while still maintaining control of the foot pedals (able to fully depress the brake and accelerator pedals), steering wheel (rest the wrists on the steering wheel) and your view of the instrument panel controls.
Never adjust the driver's seat while the vehicle is in motion. The seat movement may be more than expected and can cause the driver to unintentionally operate the accelerator or brake, or turn the steering wheel, causing loss of control of the vehicle, an accident or serious personal injury. Adjust the driver's seat only when the vehicle is stationary.
Never put objects under the seats. They may interfere with the seat-lock mechanism or unexpectedly activate the seat position adjusting lever, causing the seat to suddenly move, resulting in loss of control of the vehicle, an accident or serious personal injury.
While adjusting the seat, do not put your hands under the seat or near the moving parts. This may lead to injuries.
4.2.2 Front Seat
Graphic
Front Seat Slide
To adjust the seat position, locate the seat slide lever beneath the seat. Pull and hold the lever upward to unlock the seat. Slide the seat forward or backward to your desired position while keeping the lever engaged. Once positioned, release the lever to lock the seat securely in place. Always ensure the seat is properly locked before driving.
While adjusting the seat, ensure the latch fully engages on both sides of the fore-aft adjustment track rails and that the seat is firmly locked in the desired position. Failure to properly secure the seat could result in unintended movement during a sudden stop or collision, potentially causing injury. After adjusting, push and pull the seat to confirm it is securely locked before driving.
Front Seat Recline
To adjust the seatback angle, lean forward slightly and lift the seatback adjustment lever. While holding the lever, lean back to set the seatback to your desired angle. Once adjusted, release the lever and ensure it returns to its original position, locking the seatback securely in place. Always confirm the seatback is locked before driving to ensure safety.
Seat belts offer maximum protection during frontal or rear collisions when occupants are seated upright and positioned well back in their seats.
If you are reclined while wearing a seat belt, the lap belt may slide past your hips and exert restraint forces on the abdomen, increasing the risk of internal injuries in a collision. Additionally, the shoulder strap may press against your neck, causing discomfort or injury.
The more the seat is reclined, the greater the risk of serious injury in a collision.
The front seat-back should never be fully reclined while the vehicle is in motion, as doing so may increase the risk of injuries.
When returning the rear-reclined seat back to its upright position, make sure you support the seat back while operating the lever.
Front Seat Height Adjustment (if equipped)
The driver’s seat height can be adjusted using the height adjust handle.
To raise the seat, lift the handle repeatedly until the desired height is reached.
To lower the seat, push the handle downward in a similar manner.
Do not adjust the seat height while the vehicle is moving.
Driver Seat Lumbar Adjustment (if equipped)
Graphic

Driver and Co-driver Ventilated Seats (if equipped)
Seat ventilation is a special feature designed to enhance comfort by providing additional air circulation in the driver and co-driver seats.
Seat ventilation helps regulate the seat temperature, ensuring a more comfortable driving experience
Graphic
The active ventilation system uses small fans to blow air into the occupant contact areas, such as the seat cushions and seat backs, through small vent holes on the surface. This airflow helps maintain a comfortable temperature by promoting air circulation, reducing heat buildup, and enhancing overall comfort, especially during long drives or in warm weather.
You can use the seat ventilation whenever you experience excessive heat or sweating in the contact surfaces between the occupant and the seat.
•  The ventilated seat uses the interior air for ventilation, helping to cool the seat and improve comfort. For optimal performance, it is recommended to use the ventilated seat in conjunction with the air conditioner.
•  The ventilated seat is not a cooling or heating seat that blows out cold or hot air directly.
•  Do not place your hand at the bottom of the seat cushion while the ventilated seat is in operation. The running ventilation fan may cause unexpected movement or airflow, which could startle you or result in injury.
•  If you experience any issues with the seat ventilation system, Please contact Mahindra Authorised service center for further assistance.
•  Do not place any sharp or heavy object on the passenger seat, as this could damage the ventilation system by cracking the seat upholstery.
•  If any liquid spills on the seat, clean it up immediately. Allow the seat to dry completely before using the air ventilation feature. Liquid contact can affect the performance of the seat ventilation system, so it's important to ensure the seat is dry to maintain proper function.

4.4 Seat Belt
4.4.1 General Warnings and Instructions
At least once each month, inspect the seat belt webbing for any cuts, tears, or other signs of wear (such as fraying along the edges). Also inspect the anchors, retractors, and buckles to be sure they are tight and operational.
•  All occupants, including the driver, should always wear their seat belt no matter how short the trip in order to minimize the risk of severe injury in the event of a crash. In an accident, an un-belted passenger becomes a projectile, and can cause serious injury to himself or another passenger.
•  In a rollover crash, an un-belted person is significantly more likely prone to serious and / or fatal’ injury than a person wearing a seat belt
•  In order to be properly buckled, you must always sit up straight and keep your feet on the floor in front of you. The lap part must be worn low and tight across your hips, just touching the top of your thighs. While fastening the seat belt, the shoulder strap of the seat belt must pass over your chest and top of your shoulder. It must never touch your neck, face, the side of your shoulder, arm, or pass under your arm. The belt must always be flat against your body and not twisted in any way. Nothing, such as an arm rest, a pocketbook, or any external objects should be between you and the seat belt. An improperly worn seat belt will reduce the protection in an accident.
•  Seat belts should be adjusted as tightly as possible, consistent with comfort to properly secure the wearer in the seat.
Graphic
Graphic
•  The seat belts provided for your vehicle are designed for adults must be properly used and maintained.
•  For usage of adult seat belt to secure children, refer to section of manual for child seat positions and use a child restraint systems
•  Passengers should not move out of or change seats while the vehicle is in motion. Passenger who does not wear the seat belts will be under a high risk of thrown against the vehicle inside hard parts, against other occupants or out of the vehicle during emergency stop or collision.
•  Do not use any accessories on seat belts or modify in any way the seat belt system. Devices claiming to improve occupant comfort or reposition the seat belt can reduce the protection provided by the seat belt and increase the chance of serious injury in a crash
•  An accident or emergency stop, can damage your seat belt system, even if the accident is “minor”. Please have your Mahindra Authorised Dealer inspect the seat belt system after an accident
•  Please be aware that any unsecured item in your vehicle, such as your pet, unsecured child restraint system, a laptop or mobile phones, can become a projectile in the event of an accident or sudden stop, causing injuries to occupants in the vehicle
•  Passengers should not move out of or change seats while the vehicle is in motion. Passenger who does not wear the seat belts will be under a high risk of thrown against the vehicle inside hard parts fitted inside the passenger compartment like grab handles, coat hooks, screens and other fitments, against other occupants or out of the vehicle during emergency stop or collision.
Never use a damaged seat belt system. A damaged seat belt will not provide protection in an accident, resulting in serious injury.
•  Seat belt systems are prone to abuse. They are not indestructible. They must be handled with care to avoid damage and periodic inspection for seat belt functionality to be ensured
•  Keep the belts clean and dry. Belt retraction may become difficult if the belts and webbings are soiled. If they need cleaning, use a mild soap solution or lukewarm water. Never use bleach, dye, or abrasive cleaners. These chemicals will severely weaken the belts
•  Retractors in 3-point type seat belts retract the seat belts when not in use. The inertia lock and coil spring allow the belts to remain comfortable on users during normal driving. During accidents or abrupt stops, inertia locks restrict the sudden forward movement of the wearer
Prevention of seat belt Slow retraction:
1. Check if there any twist on in-board or out-board side of safety belt.
2. Check if dust accumulated on outer parts such as Webbing , D-Loop, Tongue stopper and Tongue.
3. Remove the dust from D-Loop, Webbing, Tongue & Tongue stopper by compressed air or air blower.
4. Use clean and lint free cloth and hand gloves for cleaning safety belt parts D-Loop, Webbing, Tongue & Tongue stopper. Do not use any chemicals and cleaning fluids which might damage the seat belt assembly.
5. Inspect the Webbing for retraction performance. Safety belt assembly cleaning required if seat belt retraction becomes very slow due to dust and soil accumulation on safety belt assembly, then below cleaning procedure to be followed:
Steps to be followed for removal Seat belt for cleaning
1. Appropriate Procedure of disassembly of all pyrotechnic devices to be followed for pretensioner seat belt. The battery negative terminal to be removed before disassembly of pretensioner, otherwise there will be error codes registered in Airbag ECU and Airbag ECU will show malfunction.
2. Open Pillar trims and take out Seat belt assembly on bench by carefully disassembly of connector and Lap Pretensioner/ Anchor wire assembly (if equipped). Kindly follow correct safety belt pretensioner handling procedure in case of pretensioner safety belts. Use clean and lint free cloth and hand gloves for cleaning safety belt assembly. Do not use any chemicals and cleaning fluids which might damage the Seat belt webbing and other parts.
3. If seat belt movement is sticky due to dust accumulation. Then please contact the dealer for help in cleaning.
4. In case of soiling on the belt, use a mild soap solution consisting of 2 tablespoons of normal soap powder to 1 liter of lukewarm water.
5. Care to be taken to prevent contact of soap water with Pretensioner.
6. Clean dust accumulated on D-Loop, Webbing and overall assembly by close inspection of D-Loop and Webbing using lint free cloth.
7. After cleaning safety belt they should be dried by lint free dry cloth.
8. After cleaning kindly inspect Webbing movement through D-Loop slot for any sticky movement of webbing .
9. Assemble the safety belt using correct torque. Re-assemble all trim parts.
10. Inspect the Webbing for retraction performance.
Seat Belts use for Patients: Persons with serious medical conditions should also wear a seat belt. Consult your doctor for specific recommendations before travel.
Seat Belts use for Pregnant Women: Pregnant women must also wear seat belts in the below illustrated manner. Consult your doctor for specific recommendations.
Graphic
The lap belt should be worn snugly and as low as possible over the hips. The shoulder belt should be worn across your shoulder, but never across the stomach area. When worn properly, the seat belt will protect both the mother and the foetus in an accident or emergency stop.
A pregnant woman should never wear the seat belt across the stomach area. This could lead to serious injuries to the foetus and/or the pregnant mother.
Never wear twisted seat belts. Excessive forces will be transferred from the belt to the wearer in a collision, resulting in serious personal injury.
Each seat belt is meant for use by one person only. Using one seat belt for more than one person at a time is dangerous. The seat belt will not be able to absorb the impact forces properly leading to serious injuries.
Never wear a belt around a child being carried on the occupant's lap. This could lead to serious injuries.
Seat Belt Usage is Necessary to:
•  Reduce the possibility of being thrown out from your vehicle during an accident.
•  Reduce the possibility of injuries to upper body, lower body and legs during an accident
•  Hold the driver in a position which allows better control of the vehicle
Children who are too large for child restraint systems should always occupy the rear seat and use the vehicle seat belts. The lap portion should be snug fastened on the hips and as low as possible and the shoulder belt should be route across the child's shoulder, not across neck or face. If you are unable to position the belt across the child's shoulder, the child should be seated in a booster seat. Frequently check the seat belt to be sure it remains snug and in position. A squirming child could cause the seat belt to come out of position.
4.4.2 Seat Belt Configuration
Graphic
To protect you and your passengers in the event of an accident, it is highly recommended that the seat belts should be used by all occupants inside of your vehicle.
Seat Belt Types with respect to Location
Seat Location
Seat Belt Type
Driver Seat
Seat belt with Retractor Pretensioner & load limiter (RPLL), & Anchor Pretensioner
Co-Driver Seat
Seat belt with Retractor Pretensioner & load limiter (RPLL)
2nd Row LH (40P)
Seat belt with Emergency Lock Retractor (ELR)
2nd Row RH (60P)
Seat belt with Emergency Lock Retractor (ELR) for outboard and center occupant
Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR): The Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) allows the driver seat belt to freely extend and retract with occupant movement, yet locks the belt during a sudden stop or upon impact.
Retractor Pretensioner & load limiter (RPLL): A pretensioner is designed to retract some of the webbing of a seat belt the instant a collision occurs, tightening the seat belt to restrain occupants quickly and reducing the amount they are thrown forward in a moderate or severe frontal crash.
Load limiters help protect occupants from seat belt-inflicted injury. In the event of a crash, the pretensioner restrains the occupant until certain amount of force is applied. At this point the load limiter releases the webbing gradually so as not to exert too much force on the chest of the occupant.
4.4.3 Seat Belt Pretensioner
In the event of a crash being detected, the belt pretensioner locks the seat belt by drawing back the seat belts on the driver’s and passenger’s torso and pelvis to prevent the driver and passenger being thrown forward. The seat belt pretensioner combined with the seat belt and airbag further increases safety.
Graphic
This vehicle is provided with a anchor pretensioner for driver seat (in the sill board area) and is used to help to protect occupant in the sever crash events .
Its activation through Airbag ECU is signalled by pulling down of the metallic cable and removes slack in in seat belt.
To obtain the highest degree of protection from the action of the pretensioning device, wear the seat belt on shoulder keeping it firmly close to the chest and bottom part of the seat belt on pelvis.
In case of side impact collisions, front air bags are not inflated, but seat belt pretensioners located in the same position with impact direction will be deployed together with side air bag. Deployed seat belt pretensioners cannot be deployed again. Get the deployed seat belt pretensioners replaced by an Authorised dealer.
Operation of pretensioner
When a severe frontal impact occurs, seat belt pretensioners pull back the seat belts immediately to restrain the occupants to their seats.
Graphic
Operation of load limiter
After frontal collision, the load limiter releases the seat belt to prevent the occupant from being injured due to belt force.
Graphic
Fastening the seat belt
Even if seat belts are not worn, the air bag will deploy in case of impact, collision triggered. In addition, airbags can protect occupants when the occupants are wearing their seat belts. Airbags may cause injuries to occupants if they do not wear or inappropriately use their seat belts.
•  Before driving, all occupants should fasten their seat belts. If not, the occupants can seriously be injured in a collision or sudden manoeuvring of the vehicle
•  Sometimes you may have to apply strong force to pull the webbing out of the retract
•  Each seat belt and each seating position should be used by only one occupant at a time.
•  Seat belts and airbags can significantly minimise possible injury to occupants. But they cannot perfectly protect occupants from fatal collisions or injury
•  Modifications and improper maintenance for the safety systems could cause serious injury. The safety systems including seat belts should be checked and repaired by only a Mahindra Dealer or Mahindra Authorised Service centre
•  An infant or small child should always be restrained in an infant or child restraint
4.4.4 Fastening the Seat Belt
Graphic
Graphic
Graphic
Adjust the seat as needed, sit up straight and well back in the seat. To fasten your seat belt, pull the webbing out of the retractor and insert the metal tab into the buckle. An audible “click” would be heard when the tab locks into the buckle. Pull up on the shoulder strap to tighten the lap belt across your hips. The seat belt retractor will pull in any slack in the shoulder strap. A slow and easy motion will allow the belt to extend and let you move your body around freely.
Periodically check the seat belt as you ride to be sure it remains snug and in position. If there is a sudden stop or impact, the belt will lock into position. It will also lock (restrict) if you try to lean forward too quickly.
If the driver or co-driver seat belt is not fastened when the ignition is switched ON, the seat belt warning lamp illuminates and chimes beat will turn till seat belt fastened. Refer “Warning Lamps” in the “DID Features” chapter for further details.
4.4.5 Seat Belt Release
Graphic
To release the belt, press the buckle release button and allow the belt to retract. If the belt does not retract smoothly, pull it out and check for kinks or twists. Then make sure it remains untwisted as it retracts.
Never insert coins, clips, etc. in the buckle as this may prevent from properly latching the tongue and may cause damage to the buckle mechanism, thereby making the seat belt ineffective in an accident, resulting in serious personal injury.
4.4.6 Second Row Seat Belt Fastening
Graphic
The word “CENTER” is marked on the seat belt buckle positioned on LH side for the rear center seat occupant to wear seat belt correctly. The buckles are designed so that an outboard seat belt tongue cannot be inserted into the wrong buckle.
To unfasten the seat belt, push the red colour button engraved with “PRESS” on the buckle and retract the seat belt slowly while holding the belt or/and the belt tongue. 
4.4.7 Seat Belt Height Adjuster
Graphic
You can adjust the height of the shoulder belt anchor for maximum comfort and safety of both front seats. If the height of the seat belt is too near your neck, you will not be getting the most effective protection.
The shoulder portion of the belt should be adjusted so that it lies across your chest and midway over your shoulder nearest to the door and not your neck.
To adjust the height of the seat belt anchor, lower or raise the height adjuster to an appropriate position while pressing the height adjuster button. Release the button to lock the anchor into position. Try sliding the height adjuster to make sure that it has locked into the position.
Adjust the shoulder belt height sitting well back in the seat. Do not adjust the seat belt height while vehicle is in motion.
Check that the seat belt is positioned over the centre of outward shoulder, and it is ensuring belt is away from your neck and face, but not slipping off from your shoulder. Improper adjustment of the seat belt could reduce the effectiveness of the seat belt during the accident/collision
4.4.8 Driver and Passenger Seat Belt Reminder Indication
Graphic
The driver, front passenger and rear passenger seat belt reminder warning symbol lamp will be continuous ON in Driver Information Display (DID) if driver or passenger doesn’t wear the seat belt and will be continuous until belt is buckled.
Chime will be activated when vehicle speed is more than 25 Kmph of speed while vehicle is in motion which will be ON for 95 seconds for front seat belt and 35 seconds for rear seat belt.
4.4.9 Passenger Occupant Detection System (PODS) & Seat Belt Reminder Indication
PODS detects the presence of occupant in the front passenger and on all rear seating locations.
Front passenger
Graphic
Rear passenger
Graphic
Graphic
If Occupant is present on front passenger and rear passenger seats and not wearing the seat belt, Seat belt reminder warning symbol lamp will glow on the vehicle instrument cluster panel and will be continuous until the seat belt is buckled.
It should be noted that the PODS require a minimum weight hence children may not be detected by PODS. Along with this warning symbol, a Chime in Cluster will be ON for 95 seconds for front seat belt reminder and 35 seconds for rear passenger seat belt reminder.
Do keep in mind that after market seat covers also may deteriorate the occupant detection sensor performance, don’t use the non recommended/non authorized seat covers.
Graphic
Seat belt reminder warning lamp for passenger seat may glow in case of child is present in passenger seat.
Strong advice not to carry children in front seat without child restraint seat. Also do not use adult seat belt which is designed to harness person taller than 140cm. Always ensure Passenger Airbag is turn OFF before you carry child on passenger seat. We strongly urge that children should be in middle row using the child seats with the ISOFIX
4.4.10 Rear outboard seat belt usage
Graphic
It is strongly recommended to use the rear outboard seat belts properly routed through the seat belt guide provided on the rear seat back. Else, neck cutting and uncomfortable circumstances may arise with improper use of seat belt.
Improper routing of rear outboard seat belt may cause severe injuries in case of collision.
4.5 Child Restraint System (CRS)
How to use the ISOFIX Lower Latch Anchor/ISOFIX Rods
1. ISOFIX Marking
Graphic
2. Latch anchor/ISOFIX rod
Graphic
•  The ISOFIX lower latch anchors (rods) are located in rear seats bottom position. Their locations are shown in the illustration
•  Insert the child restraint attachments into the ISOFIX lower latch anchors (rods) until it clicks. Refer Child seat installation manual provided by the equipment manufacturer.
•  Do not use the seat belt for installing the ISOFIX child restraint
ISOFIX system is a standardized method of fitting child seats that eliminates the need to use the standard adult Seat belt to secure the seat in the vehicle. This enables a much more secure and positive location with the added benefit of easier and quicker installation.
•  When using the “ISOFIX” lower latch system (rod), all unused vehicle rear seat belt metal latch plates or tabs must be latched securely in their seat belt buckles and the seat belt webbing must be retracted behind the child restraint to prevent the child from reaching and taking hold of un-retracted seat belts. Unlatched metal latch plates or tabs may allow the child to reach the un-retracted seat belts which may result in strangulation and a serious injury or death to the child in the child restraint.
•  Child restraint anchorages are designed to withstand only those loads imposed by correctly-fitted child restraints. Under no circumstances are they to be used for adult seat belts, harnesses or for attaching other items or equipment to the vehicle
How to use the Top Tether/Rear Anchor
Graphic
There are two top tether rods/rear anchors on the seat base back side of the rear row front facing seats.
1. Remove the headrest from the rear row seat
2. Place the child restraint on the rear row seat
3. Connect the tether connector in child restraint to the top tether rod/ rear anchor. Securely tighten the child restraint by adjusting the webbing of the child restraint system (CRS) tether connector. Follow the clear instructions provide in the CRS manual provided by the equipment manufacturer.
Each Child Restraint System (CRS) should be designated for the use of one child only.
•  The top-tether/ rear anchor is the supplemental device to secure the child restraint system after engaging it by the ISOFIX rod/lower latches. Therefore, do not secure the child restraint system only with the seat back anchors. The increased load may cause the hooks or anchors to break, causing serious injury or death.
•  If a child restraint is not properly secured to the vehicle and a child is not properly restrained in the child restraint, the child could be seriously injured or killed in a collision. Always follow the instructions provided by the child restraint manufacturer for installation
•  Make sure the latches of the child restraint system are Firmly latched to the ISOFIX rod/lower latches. In this case, you can hear the “click” sound/ latch indications provided on seat.
•  Incorrectly installed child restraint system may cause an unexpected personal injury. Additionally, a loose or improperly fitted child seat may not provide adequate protection.
•  Child restraint anchorages are designed to withstand only those loads imposed by correctly fitted child restraints and must never be used to secure other objects, equipment, or adult passengers. Misuse may cause serious injury or death.
•  The tether strap may not work properly if attached somewhere other than the correct top tether rod/rear anchor provided on seat back.
•  Don’t put the top tether strap over the head restraint of rear row seat which is not the correct method and may cause risk.
•  Rock the child restraint to check if it is securely installed. Refer to instructions provided by the manufacturer of the child restraint.
•  Do not install the child restraint of such size if it hinders the operations of the front seat and causes problems to the front occupants.
•  Never place a rear-facing child restraint in the front passenger seat unless the airbag is deactivated. Airbag deployment can cause serious injury or death to a child.

Unrestrained infants and small children could be injured
•  Never transport them unless they are properly restrained
•  Use restrained system which meet safety standard
•  Follow directions provided by the manufacturer
Warning for Child Restraint
•  Use only the approved Child Restraint System (CRS) for better safety of your child.
•  Mahindra is not responsible for the personal injury and property damage due to the defect of child restraint system.
•  Use the proper type of child restraint system suitable for the weight and size for your baby.
•  Use the child restraint system at recommended seating location only and follow the instructions.
•  The Child Restraint System (CRS) must remain unaltered and should not be tampered with under any circumstances.
•  After a collision, it is crucial to have the seat belts, seats, ISOFIX, and top-tether anchorages thoroughly inspected and repaired exclusively at an authorized service center to ensure safety and reliability.
•  Child restraint has 5 categories based on the weight as below:
1
GROUP 0 : 0 ~ 10 KG
4
GROUP II : 15 ~ 25 KG
2
GROUP 0+ : 0 ~ 13 KG
5
GROUP III : 22 ~ 36 KG
3
GROUP I : 9 ~ 18 KG
   
•  Group 0 & 0+ : Rear-facing child restraint fitted on the rear seat (use of ISOFIX with Base & Support Leg is recommended).
•  Group I: Forward-facing child restraint fitted on the rear seat (use of ISOFIX & Top Tether is recommended).
•  Group II & III: Booster seat fitted on the rear seat with seat belt fastened. Always follow the installation procedure and use instructions provided by the manufacturer of the booster seat.
Cautions for ISOFIX Seat usage
•  The anchor provided on rear seat base back is the supplemental device to secure the child restraint system after engaging it by the lower latches. Therefore, do not secure the child restraint system only with the seat back anchors. The increased load may cause the hooks or anchors to break, causing serious injury or death.
•  If a child restraint is not properly secured to the vehicle and a child is not properly restrained in the child restraint, the child could be seriously injured or killed in a collision. Always follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer for installation.
•  Make sure the latches of the child restraint system are latched to the lower latches. In this case, you can hear the “click” sound and color indications.
•  The child restraint seat strap may not work properly if attached somewhere other than the correct seat back anchor provided on the rear seat base back side behind the seat carpet. Follow the instructions provided on the seat back for the details of anchor location.
•  Make sure that the child restraint system is firmly secured by rocking it in different directions.
•  Incorrectly installed child restraint system may cause an unexpected personal injury.
•  User is sole responsible for injuries or damage resulting from improper installation, incorrect seat selection, or disregard of the instructions given in this Vehicle Manual
4.6 Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)
The Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) includes airbags, pre-tensioners and ECU. The airbags are designed to provide further protection to the vehicle occupants in addition to the primary protection provided by the seat belts and seat belt pre-tensioners.
The primary components of the system are the sensors which measure the crash severity. In the event of a significant frontal impact, the SRS airbags inflate to work in conjunction with the seat belts and seat belt pre-tensioner system and help reduce injuries mainly to the driver's or front passenger's head/chest.
Any attempt to modify the SRS can lead to serious malfunctions or disabled safety systems. Mahindra is not liable for injuries, death, or property damage caused by such unauthorized changes, and any resulting harm shall be the sole responsibility of the user.
Any tampering of the SRS components (Airbags, crash sensors, Airbag ECU software and wiring harness etc) can lead to serious malfunctions and may cause unintended deployment which can lead sever injury or inhibits safety restraint systems functionality. Mahindra is not liable for injuries, death, or property damage caused by such unauthorized changes, and any resulting harm shall be the sole responsibility of the user.
Seat belts are the primary restraint system in the vehicle. An airbag provides supplemental protection in addition to the seat belts.
All occupants, including the driver, should always wear their seat belts irrespective of presence of airbag to minimise the risk of severe injury in the event of a crash.
Airbags are more effective in reducing injuries when the seat belts are worn.
Airbags
Your vehicle has the following airbags:
Graphic
A: Curtain Airbag
B: Side Airbag
C: Passenger Airbag
D: Driver Airbag
E: Knee Airbag
4.6.1 Driver and Front Passenger Airbag
Your vehicle is equipped with a Supplemental Restraint System (Airbag) and lap/shoulder belts at both the driver and front passenger seating positions. The indications of the system's presence are the letters “AIRBAG” embossed on the airbag pad cover in the steering wheel and the passenger's side Demister cover above the glove box.
The SRS is designed to deploy the front airbag only when an impact is sufficiently severe and when the impact angle is less than ± 30° from the forward longitudinal axis of the vehicle.
Driver Airbag
Graphic
Deployment
Graphic
Horn may activate while operating the haptic switches and control wing buttons present on Driver airbag module when switches are operated with higher force than recommended.
Front Passenger Airbag
Graphic
Deployment
Graphic
Front airbag are not intended to deploy in side-impact, rear impact or rollover crashes. In addition, front airbag will not deploy in frontal crashes which are below the prescribed deployment threshold where risk of serious injuries is low.
Do not place any objects over the airbag or between the airbag and yourself. It cause injuries.
4.6.2 Knee Airbag (If equipped)
The driver’s knee airbag is located on the dashboard under the steering wheel
Graphic
If the driver’s posture is improper while driving, the knee air bag might not protect the driver’s knee area when the airbag deployed.
4.6.3 Side Impact Airbag
Your vehicle is equipped with side impact airbag in both the front seats. The purpose of the airbag is to provide the vehicle's driver and/or the front passenger with additional protection during side impacts or collisions.
Graphic
The side impact airbags are designed to deploy only during certain side-impact collisions, depending on the crash severity, angle, speed and point of impact. To minimise the risk of severe injury in the event of a crash, every passenger must always wear their seat belt (see the chapter on Seat Belts in this manual). The airbags inflate very quickly with great force. Do not position any part of your body too close to airbag, you or especially children could be seriously injured/killed by a deploying airbag.
Graphic
•  In the case of a side collision, the curtain airbag may be deployed together with the relevant side airbag on the side the collision occurs
•  The side impact airbag is supplementary to the seat belt systems and is not a substitute for them. Therefore, your seat belts must be worn at all times while the vehicle is in motion. The airbags deploy only in certain side impact conditions severe enough to cause significant injury to the vehicle occupants
•  For best protection from the side impact airbag system and to avoid being injured by the deploying side impact airbag, all seat occupants should sit in an upright position with the seat belt properly fastened. The driver's hands should be placed on the steering wheel at the 9:00 and 3:00 positions. The passengers arms and hands should be placed on their laps
•  Do not use any accessory seat covers. Use of seat covers could reduce or prevent the effectiveness of the system
•  Do not install any accessories on the side or near the side impact airbag
•  Do not place any objects over the airbag or between the air bag and yourself
•  Do not place any objects (an umbrella, bag, etc.) between the door and the seat. Such objects may become dangerous projectiles and cause injury if the supplementary side impact airbag inflates
Do not cover the front seats with anything. It hinders the air bag inflation
It is strictly non recommendable to use retrofitted seat covers on the driver and front passenger seats equipped with airbags.
An airbag is not designed to deploy in every type of crash. Depending on the type of collision and severity of impact, the front protection airbags and side protection airbags are may independently deployed thereby protecting the occupants. It is not necessary that ALL the airbags deploy during an collision.
Incase of low sever collisions there may not be any airbag deployed and proper wearing of seat belts can provide maximum protection to occupant.
4.6.4 Side Curtain Airbag
The side curtain air bags are contained between right above the front and rear doors and the end of the vehicle roof.
The Side Curtain air bags are located along sides of the roof rails on the A & B pillars. They are designed to help protect the heads of the front seat occupants and the rear outboard seat occupants in certain side impact collisions. The curtain airbag are designed to deploy depending on the crash severity, angle, speed and impact. The curtain airbag are not designed to deploy in all side impact situations, collisions from the front or rear of the vehicle or in rollover situations.
Graphic
•  In the case of a side collision, the side airbag may be deployed together with the relevant curtain airbag on the side the collision occurs
•  In order for side and curtain airbag to provide the best protection, both front seat occupants and outboard rear occupants should sit in an upright position with the seat belts properly fastened. Importantly, children should sit in a proper child restraint system in the rear seat
•  When children are seated in the rear outboard seats, they must be seated in the proper child restraint system. Make sure to position the child restraint system as far away from the door side as possible, and secure the child restraint system in a locked position
•  Do not allow the passengers to lean their heads or bodies onto doors or place objects between the doors and passengers when they are seated on seats equipped with side and/or curtain airbag
4.6.5 Passenger Airbag Activation/Deactivation
The passenger air bag activation/deactivation option is available in the CID screen present on the vehicle display unit.
Steps to Activate and Deactivate the Passenger Airbag
In Centre Information Display (CID) Go to App drawer/ Vehicle Apps / My Vehicle / Interior / Safety / Passenger Airbag (ON/OFF)
Graphic

Passenger Airbag ON Indicator
Graphic
This Warning indicator symbol glows on center fascia switch on IP when selecting the passenger airbag “ON” option to enable the passenger airbag.
4.6.6 Airbag System Malfunction Lamp
Graphic
Airbags do not require any regular maintenance or service. The airbag system malfunction lamp illuminates when the ignition is ON, and it turns OFF after about two seconds as self check confirming normal operations of airbag system and malfunction lamp.
This lamp monitors airbag sensor assembly, airbag sensors, indicator lamp, seat belt pre-tensioner assemblies, inflators, interconnecting wiring and power sources.
If either of the following conditions occur, there is a malfunction of the airbags or seat belt pre-tensioner. Immediately contact your Mahindra Authorised Service Center.
•  The lamp does not glow when the ignition is switched ON or glows beyond six (6) seconds after switching the ignition ON
•  The lamp comes ON at any other time, even briefly
•  The lamp comes ON intermittently
Never make any modifications to your vehicle which could affect the performance of airbag system. In particular, changes to the vehicle frame, bumpers, bull bar, front fenders, ride height, suspension, seat belts, interior trim, seats or steering wheel (especially covers, pads or other trim), could prevent proper deployment of the airbag. If you need to make any modifications to accommodate any disability you may have, please contact your Mahindra Authorised Service center.
Never try to open or strike the airbag cover. If the airbag cover is cracked or damaged in any way, the airbag may not function as intended. Take the vehicle to a Mahindra Authorised Service center.
Even if the airbags do not deploy during an accident, take your vehicle to a Mahindra Authorised Service center for a thorough inspection of the airbag and seat belt systems, no matter how minor the accident. The airbag system could have been damaged, and may not work as intended in the future, resulting in serious injury.
4.6.7 Airbag Inflation/Deployment
The airbag sensors constantly monitor the forward deceleration of the vehicle. If an impact results in a forward deceleration beyond the designed threshold level, the system triggers the airbag inflators. This initiates a chemical reaction which quickly fills the airbags with non-toxic gas.
Upon deployment, tear seams moulded directly into the pad covers separate under pressure from the expansion of the airbags. Further opening of the covers allows full inflation of the airbags. A fully inflated airbag, in combination with a properly worn seat belt, slows the driver's or the passenger's forward motion, reducing the risk of head and chest injury.
After complete inflation, the airbag immediately starts deflating, enabling the driver to maintain forward visibility and the ability to manoeuvre or operate other controls.
Deployment of the airbags happen in a milliseconds, producing a loud noise releasing a ‘white smoke’ and residue along with a non-toxic gas. This does not indicate a fire. This smoke may remain inside the vehicle for some time, and may cause some minor irritation to the eyes, skin or breathing. Be sure to wash off any residue with soap and water as soon as possible to prevent any potential skin irritation. Exit the vehicle as soon as possible after the accident.
Airbag components will be very hot once it deployed incase of any accident. Touching or holding of those parts during/immediately after the collision may cause severe burns/injuries. Ensure of proper driving posture and sitting positions inside the vehicle during in motion.
Airbag deployment may cause windshield to break.
•  Do not modify, remove, strike or open the seat belt pre-tensioner assemblies, airbag sensor or surrounding area or wiring. Failure to follow these instructions may prevent them from activating correctly, cause sudden operation of the system or disable the system, which could result in serious injury
•  Parts of the airbag module (steering wheel hub, airbag cover and inflator) may be hot for several minutes after deployment. The airbags inflate only once
•  After airbag deployment, it is not recommended to drive the vehicle, as the airbags will not deploy or provide protection in the event of another collision.
•  Do not cover the steering wheel, instrument panel, seats with any object (e.g. dash panel covers, seat covers) which may prevent the airbags from inflating properly
•  The airbags inflate with considerable force. While the system is designed to reduce serious injuries, primarily to the head and chest, it may also cause other, less severe injuries to the face, chest, arms and hands. These are usually in the nature of minor burns or abrasions and swelling, but the force of a deploying airbag can also cause more serious injuries, especially if an occupant's hands, arms, chest or head is in close proximity to the airbag module at the time of deployment. Sit straight and well back into the seat. Move your seat as far back as practical to allow room for airbag inflation, while still allowing you to properly operate/drive the vehicle
•  Users breaching/violating the cautions and warnings provided in this manual are solely liable for the consequences. Mahindra directors, officers, designers and managers are not responsible.
The front passenger should never sit on the edge of the seat, stand near the glove compartment, rest feet or other parts of the body on the dashboard when the vehicle is moving.
Graphic
Graphic
The driver or front passenger who is too close to the steering wheel or dashboard can be seriously injured during airbag deployment.
Graphic
•  The driver must sit as far back as possible from the steering wheel while still maintaining control of the vehicle
•  The front passenger must sit as far back as possible from the dashboard
•  Sitting improperly or out of position can cause occupants to be shifted too close to a deploying airbag, strike the interior structure or be thrown from the vehicle resulting in serious injury
•  Always sit upright with the seat back in an upright position, on the seat cushion centre with your seat belt on, legs comfortably extended and your feet on the floor
•  All vehicle occupants must be properly restrained using the seat belts
•  Retrofitted seats with modified cushions should not be used, as this may result in serious or fatal injury in the event of accident.
•  All infants and children must be placed in the rear seat of the vehicle in a child restraint seat and be properly restrained by seat belts
•  Front airbags can injure occupants who are improperly positioned in the front seats
•  Even with airbags, improperly belted and un-belted occupants can be severely injured when the airbag inflates. Always follow the precautions about seat belts, airbags and occupant safety contained in this vehicle manual
•  Do not modify the front seats. Modification of the front seats could interfere with the operation of the supplemental restraint system or side impact airbags
•  Do not place items under the front seats. Placing items under the front seats could interfere with the operation of the supplemental restraint system sensing components and wiring harnesses
If your SRS malfunctions, the Airbag may not inflate properly during a collision thereby increasing risk of serious injury or death. If any of the following conditions occur, your SRS is malfunctioning: 
1. The SRS warning lamp does not turn ‘ON’ when the ignition switch is placed in the ‘ON’ position for few seconds.
a. The SRS warning lamp stays ‘ON’ after illuminating.
b. The SRS warning lamp comes ‘ON’/stays ‘ON’ while the vehicle is in motion.
c. The SRS warning lamp blinks when the vehicle is running.
2. We recommend the customer to immediately visit M&M Authorized Service Centre and get the SRS system inspected if any of the above conditions occur. 
3. Never make any modifications to your vehicle. The modifications carried out, but not limited to the vehicle frame, bumpers, front fenders, ride height, suspension, seat belts, interior trims, steering wheel (especially holders), are not acceptable. This will affect the intended performance of SRS.
4. Fitment of bull bars, seat covers on seats with airbags etc, is strictly prohibited. If you need to make any modifications to accommodate any disability you may have, please contact your M&M Authorized service centre for necessary guidance.
5. Do not tamper with SRS in any way. This will lead to unexpected performance of system and may cause serious injury or death.
4.6.8 Child Restraint and Airbag
Do not use a rearward facing child restraint on a seat protected by an airbag in front of it
Do not put the safety seat belt under your child’s arm or behind its back.
Do not use pillows, books or towels to boost your child’s height.
Do not allow children to stand up or kneel on either the rear or the front seats.
An unrestrained child could suffer serious or fatal injuries during a collision.
Do not install a booster seat or a booster cushion with a seat belt that is slack or twisted.
If the front passenger airbag inflates, while a child is seated using a rearward child restraint it could cause serious or fatal injuries to the child.
In addition, do not place front-facing child restraints in the front passenger’s seat either. If the front passenger airbag inflates, it could cause serious or fatal injuries to the child.
This is indicated also on stickers that are located at the following position. On the front passenger’s sun visor
Graphic
Graphic
Extreme Hazard! Do not use a rear-facing child restraint on a seat protected by an airbag in front of it!
Never put a child restraint in the front passenger’s seat. If the front passenger airbag inflates, it can cause serious or fatal injuries.
Never hold an infant or child on your lap. The infant or child could be seriously injured in the event of a crash. All infants and children should be properly restrained in appropriate child safety seats or seat belts in the rear seat.
Instal the child restraint system on the rear outboard seats, and securely lock the child restraint system in position with the help of ISOFIX.
Always Buckle Children (ABC) in the back seat. It is the safest place for children of any age to ride.
4.6.9 Airbag Deployment
The images shown in this section are for illustrative purpose only. They may not look like your model/variant or vehicle.
Front Airbag
Front airbag are designed to inflate in a frontal collision depending on the intensity, speed or angles of impact of the front collision. The system that senses the collision and the mechanism of deployment of airbags is triggered when there is a collision severe enough to trigger airbag deployment.
Graphic
In case of frontal impact, side and curtain airbag of either side or both side may deploy depends on the type & severity of impact.
In case of low severity frontal collision, Seat-belts, If fastened properly, alone are effective to reduce the severity of injury to occupants, seat belt pretensioners may trigger to further reduce the severity of injury in such accidents and airbags are may not intended to deploy
4.6.10  Airbag Non-deployment
Impacts below a pre-determined threshold level may not cause the airbag to deploy in the following cases:
The airbags are triggered only when there is a collision severe enough to trigger the airbags. The extent of vehicle damage is not always the correct indicator for airbag deployment. In some extreme/rare conditions of rough road driving, running into a curb or hitting other fixed objects, the airbags may deploy depending upon the severity of collision. In some of these conditions, damage to the vehicle may be minor or not be readily visible. 
The airbags are triggered only when there is a collision severe enough to trigger the airbags. The amount of visible vehicle damage is not always the correct indicator for airbag deployment. Some collisions can result in visible damage but with no airbag deployment, because the airbags would not have been needed or would not have provided protection even if they had deployed. Seat belts, if worn, offer adequate occupant protection in such cases.), damage to the vehicle may be minor or not be readily visible.
where there may be visible damage but the airbags did not deploy since such deployment was either not needed (according to the system) or would not have offered protection. In such cases, seat belts, if worn, offer adequate protection.
Collision with Narrow objects – Utility poles or Trees etc
Airbags may not inflate if the vehicle collides with objects such as utility poles or trees or any other narrow objects such as the point of impact is concentrated to one area and the full force of the impact is not delivered to the sensors.
Graphic
Frontal Impact : Frontal impact beyond 30º range from head-on to the vehicle.
Graphic
Frontal Side Swipe Impact: Frontal offset impact to the vehicle may not provide the deceleration force necessary for airbag deployment.
In an angled collision, the force of impact may direct the occupants in a direction where the airbags would not be able to provide any additional benefit, and thus the sensors may not deploy any airbags.
Graphic
Under-ride Situations :
Running under a heavy vehicle's rear, side or front as shown in the exemplar image below may not provide the decelerations necessary for airbag deployment.
Airbags will not inflate in this “under-ride” situation where deceleration forces that are detected by sensors are significantly low.
Graphic
Rear-end Collisions :
Frontal airbags are not designed to inflate in rear collisions. In rear collision, the force of impact may direct the occupants in direction where the airbags would not be able to provide any additional benefit. Side airbags can deploy based on the severity of the rear impact. High voltage cutoff happen, depends on the severity and location of impact.
Graphic
The head restraint should be properly positioned to provide adequate support to the occupant's head and the back of the head. Proper adjustment of the head restraint is essential to minimize head movement in the event of a rear collision.
Potholes or Stepped Surfaces :
Driving into a big pothole, stepped surface or hitting the far side of a hole/incline will not inflate the airbag.
Graphic
Other collision scenarios where airbags may not deploy:
Impact With Animal (Cow, Horse, Deer, etc.,)
Graphic
Graphic
Vehicle Impacting Rear of Another Car
Graphic
Rollover: Wearing seat belts offers effective protection in the event of a rollover collision.
Graphic
Airbags will not inflate in rollover accidents where airbag deployment would not provide protection to the occupants. However, side impact and curtain airbags may inflate only when severe side impact causes rollover.
Side airbags and side curtain airbags may inflate in a strong impact.
Side airbags and side curtain airbags may inflate even in a frontal collision, if there is a strong impact to the lateral direction.
A frontal collision occurs when the front ends of two vehicles collide
Graphic
When a vehicle hits a curb or bump
Graphic
When a vehicle falls into a deep hole or ditch
Graphic
When a vehicle experiences a hard landing or fall
Graphic
Side airbags and side curtain airbags may not inflate
In the event of a side impact to the vehicle body, excluding the passenger compartment, several areas of the vehicle are typically affected.
Graphic
Graphic
When a vehicle is impacted from the side at an oblique angle
Graphic
When a vehicle is impacted from the side by a high-hood vehicle
Graphic
When a vehicle is impacted from the side by a motorcycle or bicycle
Graphic
Possible scenarios in which high voltage may cutoff:
•  Frontal collision, Side collision, Rear collision and Under strike collision
4.6.11 Airbag Service
Airbag Replacement: Self-servicing or tampering with the airbag system is dangerous. An airbag could accidentally deploy causing serious injuries, or will not deploy when there is a need. Always take your vehicle to a Mahindra Authorised Service Center for inspection and repairs.
In case the customer either tries to self-service the airbag systems or tamper with the air bag systems. Mahindra, including its directors, officers or key managerial personnels, do not carry any liability arising due to such actions of the customers.
Removing SRS Related Parts: We do not recommend removing the instrument panel, steering wheel, seats or airbag related parts or sensors by any individual or garages. Airbags could accidentally activate and cause serious injuries, or they may not deploy when there is a need. Visit an Mahindra Authorised Service Center if these parts must be service and repair of the parts.
Airbag Disposal: Improper disposal of an airbag or a vehicle with live airbags can be extremely dangerous. Approach an Mahindra Authorised Service Center to do these jobs.
Airbag Repair: If the front airbag cover or instrument panel airbag cover shows signs of damage or having been removed, the vehicle should be towed to the nearest Mahindra Authorised Service Center for repair. Do not attempt to self repair or reinstall the cover.
Airbag Maintenance: For cleaning the airbag covers/areas, use only a soft dry cloth or one which has been moistened with plain water. Solvents or cleaners could adversely affect the airbag covers and proper deployment of the system.

7 Starting and Driving
7.1 General Driving Precautions
Always observe the following precautions to minimize the risk of accidents leading to serious personal injury or damage to your vehicle.
•  Please read this manual carefully, before driving your vehicle.
•  Before you each driving cycle, check proper operation of the brakes and steering system
•  While driving, if you hear any strange noise or feel unusual vibration, or if you observe any concerns, or if any warning lamps illuminate or buzzers sound, park/stop the vehicle in a safe location as soon as possible. Identify the cause and take any necessary remedial action. If unable to identify the cause, vacate the vehicle premises & Contact Mahindra Authorised Dealer for assistance
•  Never overload or improperly load your vehicle
•  Always be attentive while driving and follow safe driving practices
•  Always maintain the recommended inflation pressure in tyres
•  Always drive at a safe speed appropriate for given driving conditions. You must follow the speed limits
•  While moving backwards, keep a constant lookout for people, particularly children, or other obstructions or hazardous material that might be present behind the vehicle
•  Your vehicle if equipped with Mars Roof. is not recommended for loading on the roof. For variants with normal roof, loading on roof raises the vehicle's center of gravity, making it unstable.
•  When driving off-road or on rugged terrain, do not drive at excessive speeds, jump, make sharp turns, strike objects, etc. This may cause loss of control or vehicle rollover causing serious injury or cause expensive damage to battery pack & suspension.
•  Maintain steering wheel control at all times, especially on rough terrains. Sudden changes in terrain can result in abrupt steering wheel motion. Make sure you grip the steering wheel from the outside. Do not grip the spokes
•  If the vehicle goes from one type of surface to another
(e.g. from concrete to gravel/sand/mud/snow) there will be a change in the way the vehicle responds, especially the way it responds to steering, braking and accelerating inputs
•  Be extremely careful when driving on slippery pavements such as by loose sand, water, gravel, snow or ice
•  If your vehicle goes off the edge of the pavement, slow down, and avoid severe brake or steering application. Ease the vehicle back onto the pavement only after reducing your speed and controlled steering. Do not turn the steering wheel too sharply or abruptly while returning to the road surface, you may lose control.
•  In an unavoidable emergency situation where a sudden sharp turn must be made, turn the steering wheel only as rapidly and as far as required to avoid the emergency. Excessive steering will result in less vehicle control. Additionally, smooth variations of the accelerator and/or brake pedal pressure should be utilized if changes in vehicle speed are called for. Avoid abrupt steering, acceleration or braking which could result in an increased risk of loss of vehicle control, vehicle rollover and/or personal injury. Use all available road surfaces to return the vehicle to a safe direction of travel
Driving for extended periods in heavy rain without braking can result in delayed reaction times when brakes are finally applied.
While Parking and leaving the vehicle for extended period of time in extreme cold or hot environment the high voltage and low voltage battery may experience noticeable energy loss.
So it is responsibility of the user to ensure sufficient battery charge according to the duration of parking. During the such situations it is always recommended to leave the vehicle with minimum 80 % charge.
7.2 Safety Tips - Before Driving your Vehicle
Simple steps to get your vehicle started & ready to drive:
Before entering your vehicle:
•  Inspect the interior and exterior of the vehicle for any signs of damage, leaks, loose parts, or debris.
•  Ensure all windows, mirrors, lights, and tyres are in good condition.
•  Check the area under vehicle after an overnight parking for brake fluid or other fluid leaks
Contact Mahindra Authorised Dealer if required.
Before Starting your vehicle:
•  Check energy level on SOC bar and digital SOC display. Ensure that there is enough charge for your planned journey
•  If vehicle is parked for charging, turn off the power supply. Remove charging gun from vehicle and the plug from the wall socket. Roll the cable and keep it in the dedicated slot of the vehicle.
•  Ensure all doors are securely closed, latched, and locked from both inside and outside
•  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.
•  Ensure that the rear view mirror and both the ORVM’s are adjusted for an unobstructed view of the road behind.
•  Have someone observe and confirm normal operation of all exterior lamps while you work on the controls from the driver seat..
•  Check for tyres, air pressure before starting the vehicle. Also, check functioning of all lamps in the instrument panel
Do not ignore the EV warning lamp & service warning lamp. Ignoring the warning lamp may damage the electrical power train components.
Visit the Authorized Mahindra service centre at the earliest.  
•  Start the vehicle (Drive enable) only when seated and belted in the driver's seat.
•  Press the Start/Stop switch once to turn the ignition ON and then press the brake pedal and Start/Stop button simultaneously to drive enable the vehicle.
•  Engage D/R mode by referring “shift by wire lever” section.
•  EPB (Electronic Parking Brake) will be released once gear shifter is changed from park mode to R/N/D mode. Use only your right leg for applying accelerator & brake pedal.
•  Without any actuation of the accelerator pedal, your vehicle will move slowly, when the brake pedal is released, if the selector lever is in any position other than 'P' or 'N''. This is called the creep function.
Creep function will not work in D/R mode, if EPB is engaged.
•  Before shifting to reverse, ensure your vehicle is stationary. Then, move the shifter lever to reverse [R] mode, gently press the accelerator, and drive backward.
When SOC level of your battery pack reduces to less than 15% SOC, system activates “Power Save Mode” and the vehicle performance is reduced
Operate brake pedal and accelerator pedal with your right foot only.
While driving, if you remove your foot from accelerator pedal without pressing brake pedal, you will feel partial regenerative braking. This is normal and is attributed to vehicle’s regenerative braking that will re-charge the battery pack for an extra drive range.
Always ensure SOC level is sufficient for desired travel distance. Avoid driving below 15% State of Charge as vehicle might stop at any point. Find nearest charging station to charge your vehicle.
Adapt your driving style to avoid excessive energy consumption. High speeds will reduce your vehicle’s range.
On a steep decline or incline, your vehicle may move in the opposite direction of the intended direction despite the creep function. When stopping on a steep hill, always depress the brake pedal.

1. In D/R mode turn OFF EPB by pressing the switch
2. Tap and release the accelerator pedal
3. Press and release the brake pedal.
7.7 Extending Your Driving Range
1. Always drive vehicle using right foot only
2. Select appropriate drive mode depending on the traffic condition
3. In bumper-to-bumper traffic, we suggest to use one-pedal drive to enhance convenience and reduce fatigue. However, avoid using one-pedal drive in situations requiring higher speeds or sudden acceleration, as it may not provide the responsiveness needed for safe driving
4. Suggest to use Autoregen mode. It helps in optimizing the regen level based on the traffic ahead and also keep a safe distance
5. To achieve optimal range from your battery, always drive in Range mode.
6. Use Everyday or Race mode only when you require an additional boost for enhanced performance.
7. Pre-cool your vehicle cabin remotely (If equipped) by turning on air condition when still plugged in for charge. This will ensure that battery will be 100% charge with cabin temperature preconditioned
8. Use air-condition with desired level of cooling set during drive. This will help in consuming less energy for cooling
9. If driving alone, its recommend using the 'Driver Only' AC setting. This helps conserve energy by focusing climate control on the driver, improving overall efficiency
10. If the weather is not too hot or during long drives, its recommend using ECO mode in the AC. This setting reduces energy consumption while maintaining a comfortable cabin environment, enhancing overall efficiency
11. One technique which should be used only if required. Enable the Power Saving Mode manually. Please note that this will limit the vehicle speed to 80 Kmph. Have reduced overtaking capability. Also AC performance is reduced.
12. By anticipating and applying gradual braking you will ensure vehicle battery is recharged for extra range. Vehicle is assisted with electrical regenerative braking, also a motor assisted hydraulic brake for complete stop
13. Always maintain the tyre pressure to the recommended value. A lower tyre pressure will increase the rolling resistance and impact the range
14. Do not add any additional accessories. This may lead to drop in the range
7.8 Do’s and Don’ts
Driving Condition
Do’s
•  If the “Stop and Leave the Vehicle” alert comes , leave the vehicle immediately. keep a safe distance (opposite direction of the wind) and alert the fire brigade.
Graphic
Don’ts
•  Avoid driving the vehicle below 10% SOC
•  Avoid driving the vehicle through stagnated water
Breakdown Vehicle
Do’s
•  Call the breakdown assistance. This vehicle is having a High voltage system.
•  Only trained breakdown technician should work in the electric vehicle
•  This vehicle should be towed only in flat bed towing
•  In case of an accident, call RSA / Mahindra authorised dealer immediately
Don’ts
•  Do not allow any local electrician to work in the breakdown vehicle
•  Don’t switch ON the ignition, if the vehicle is stuck in floods
•  Don’t do any underbody treatments
7.8.1 Good driving practices
•  Never shift the gear from 'P' (Park) or 'N' (Neutral) to any other position while the accelerator pedal is pressed.
•  Never shift the gear into 'P' (Park) while the vehicle is in motion. Ensure the vehicle is completely stopped before shifting into 'R' (Reverse) or 'D' (Drive).
•  Do not shift the gear into 'N' (Neutral) while driving, as it may increase the risk of an accident.
•  Do not rest your foot on the brake pedal while driving. Even light, continuous pressure can cause the brakes to overheat, wear out prematurely, and potentially lead to brake failure.
•  Always ensure the parking mode is engaged when leaving the vehicle.
•  Exercise extreme caution when driving on slippery surfaces. Be particularly careful when braking, accelerating, or shifting gears. Abrupt changes in speed can cause the drive wheels to lose traction, leading to a loss of control and increasing the risk of an accident.
•  Optimal vehicle performance and maximum range are achieved by smoothly pressing and releasing the accelerator.
To reduce the risk of Serious injury or death:
•  Always wear your seat belt. In the event of a collision, an unbelted occupant is far more likely to be seriously injured or killed than one who is properly secured.
•  Avoid driving at high speeds when cornering or turning.
•  Do not make sudden steering movements, such as abrupt lane changes or sharp, fast turns.
•  The risk of rollover is significantly higher if you lose control of your vehicle at highway speeds.
•  Loss of control often occurs when two or more wheels drop off the roadway, and the driver oversteers while attempting to return to the road.
•  If your vehicle leaves the roadway, avoid steering sharply. Instead, slow down first, then gently steer back into the travel lanes.
•  Mahindra recommends that you always adhere to posted speed limits.
7.9 Best Practices for Maximizing EV Range
Range (DTE Distance to Empty) – The Range indicated is an estimate of how far the vehicle can travel before the battery is completely drained. Range is estimated based on a combination of various factors, including but not limited to vehicle’s battery capacity, energy consumption and driving habits. Several factors can significantly impact the range including Battery State of Charge, Driving pattern, Terrain & Elevation, Usage of Air Condition/ Heater, Vehicle load, Temperature and weather conditions.
Below is an indicative list of the best practices that can be implemented by the customer to get a good range. For further information, the customer may contact an Authorized Mahindra Dealer.
Further, please note that the points mentioned in this document are the more critical points affecting range. For a comprehensive understanding of all points that can affect range and the best practices to operate the vehicle, please refer to the Owner’s Manual and the Warranty and Service Information Guide.
Driving Techniques:
•  Avoid frequent and rapid acceleration, as this drains the battery faster which would ultimately impact the range.
•  The recommended Drive Modes for better range are Default or Range mode.
•  Regeneration level settings to Level 1 or Level 2 for optimum range.
•  Use “Power Saving Mode” in low SoC i.e. less than 20% State of Charge.
•  Maintain a steady speed (Adaptive cruise control can help) and max speed limited to less than 100 kmph especially on highways for best range.
AC (Air Condition) settings:
•  Cabin setting: Recommended AC temperature settings are 24° C with Auto mode 1 or 2.
•  Avoid very low cabin temperatures; keep ‘Economy’ setting for AC when the vehicle is idle for best range
•  Driver Only mode to be enabled in the Climate, when only the driver seat is occupied.
•  It is recommended to use AC in SYNC mode and avoid different temperature settings between Driver & Co- driver.
•  If Dual AC settings are necessary, avoid keeping more than 3° C temperature difference between Driver & Co-driver.
•  Avoid parking vehicle under hot sun directly. It is recommended to use covered parking as much as possible.
•  If the AC performance is considerably low, it is recommended to have the AC filter checked which needs replacement every 10000 kms at the nearest Mahindra Authorised Service Centre.
Error state:
•  When either of the ‘EV Warning, Service or Electronic Stability Control telltales are active, visit the Mahindra Authorized Service Dealer and get the problems fixed. Range gets affected during such error states.
Battery charging:
•  Do not drain the Battery to less than 5% state of charge frequently, as deep discharges can harm to the Battery health.
•  Do not expose the vehicle to contact with a direct flame.
•  Avoid vehicle charging and parking in extreme ambient temperatures (hot or cold).
•  Use normal charging (Home) even when vehicle is driven less to 100% state of charge for long term benefits on battery life and range.
•  Allow Normal charging up to 100 % SOC once after 4 fast charge cycles. Use of Fast Charging can accelerate battery degradation must be minimized to help prolong the life of high voltage battery pack.
•  Always charge to greater than 50% before leaving the vehicle for long resting period.
•  Ensure that the Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment i.e. charger, charging cable (“EVSE”) is always stored in a safe place. Do not expose the EVSE to rain or wet conditions. Avoid pouring or dripping water or other liquids over the EVSE.
Maintenance:
Please note that the points mentioned in this Section are the critical points affecting range. For a comprehensive understanding of all Maintenance related requirements, please refer to the Warranty and Service Information Guide.
•  Maintain recommended vehicle tire pressure, refer the TPMS indication.
•  Check tire health periodically and replace them as per Warranty and Service Information Guide.
•  Check wheel alignment & wheel balancing periodically. If necessary, adjust with help of Authorized Mahindra Dealer.
•  Follow the tire rotation every 10,000 km as per Warranty and Service Information Guide.
•  Wash your wheels regularly to remove road salt, grime and brake dust.
Awareness points:
•  BE 6 is powerful SUVs, they accelerate much quicker than what is felt. To ensure best range, the driver should gradually accelerate the pedal and for consistent drive, the pedal should be operated with a light foot.
•  Avoid driving on bumpy, rough and slippery roads to improve range.
•  Remove unnecessary loads or roof racks when they are not in use.
•  Extreme ambient conditions (<15° C or > 35° C) can have impact the range adversely.
•  Short distance trips with long stop times or long idling with Air Condition switched ON can have negative impact on range. This is due to increased energy use from climate control (AC consumption) and other onboard systems.
•  Use of fast charging should be minimized in order to help prolong the life of high voltage battery pack.

7.10 Regenerative Braking System
A regenerative braking system is an energy recovery mechanism used in your electric origin vehicles. It converts the kinetic energy produced during braking into electrical energy, which is stored in the vehicle's battery for future use.
•  When the driver applies the brakes, the system engages an electric motor in reverse mode. Instead of consuming energy, the motor acts as a generator.
•  The kinetic energy of the vehicle, which would otherwise be lost as heat in traditional braking systems, is converted into electrical energy.
•  The generated electricity is stored in the vehicle's battery pack, increasing its overall efficiency and range.
Advantages:
•  Improved Efficiency: Increases vehicle range by reusing energy.
•  Reduced Wear and Tear: Minimizes the reliance on traditional friction brakes, extending their lifespan.
•  Environmentally Friendly: Reduces energy waste and enhances energy recovery.
7.10.1 Regenerative braking (Paddle shifter)
A regenerative braking system is an energy recovery mechanism used in your electric origin vehicles. It captures and converts the kinetic energy produced during braking into electrical energy, which is stored in the vehicle's battery for future use.
The paddle shifter allows you to adjust the regenerative braking level from 0 to 3 while decelerating.
Graphic
•  Left side (Regen +): Increases regenerative braking and enhances deceleration.
•  Right side (Regen – ): Decreases regenerative braking and reduces deceleration.
•  Press and hold the left paddle shifter for more than 0.5 seconds to activate the brake via paddle function, which increases regenerative braking. In this mode, you can stop the vehicle by continuing to press the paddle shifter.
Refer the following pages on "brake via paddle".
•  Press and hold the right paddle shifter for more than 1 second to toggle the AUTO Recuperation system ON or OFF.
For more details, refer the following pages on "AUTO Recuperation System".
The paddle shifter does not operate when:
•  The (Regen +) and (Regen – ) paddle shifters are pushed the same time.
•  The vehicle is decelerating when the brake pedal is depressed.
The selected regenerative braking level is shown on the DID.
7.10.2 Brake Via Paddle
The driver can stop the vehicle by pressing the left paddle shifter Regen +.
To operate:
•  Press and hold the left paddle shifter while coasting to maximize regenerative braking.
•  Release the paddle shifter to return to the preset regenerative braking level.
•  If the vehicle is brought to a complete stop using brake via paddle then the vehicle would continue to be stationary even after releasing the regen + button.
Limitations
The vehicle may still move even when Brake Via Paddle Driving is functioning normally. Therefore, the driver should exercise caution when using this function in the following circumstances:
•  Driving on icy, snowy, wet, sandy, or muddy roads, or on manhole covers/pothole surfaces.
•  When the wheels are not properly aligned.
•  Conditions where wheel slip or spin occurs.
•  When the vehicle is heavily loaded.
•  When the vehicle is leaning to the left or right.
•  In the case of uneven or worn-out tires.
•  When driving uphill or downhill.
•  When driving on areas where the slope begins or ends.
•  When repeatedly stopping and starting on a ramp.
Stopping the vehicle may not be possible depending on the vehicle and road conditions. Be attentive to the road ahead and apply the brakes if necessary.
Please refrain from using the Brake Via Paddle function when road conditions are poor, such as wet, icy, or snow-covered surfaces.
When the vehicle is stopped or parked on steep hills using One-Pedal Driving, be sure to depress the brake pedal.
7.10.3 One Pedal Drive
One Pedal Drive is controlled by the accelerator pedal, allowing you to control the vehicle's speed (acceleration, deceleration, and stopping) without the need to manually operate the paddle shifter.
Releasing the accelerator pedal will result in strong deceleration. We recommend using One Pedal Drive in bumper-to-bumper traffic. Once the traffic clears, switch back to the desired mode by pressing the One Pedal Drive switch again.
This is not a replacement for the brake pedal. Application of brake pedal might still be required for emergency stopping.
To operate:
•  Press the one pedal shifter in steering wheel to activate the one pedal drive function.
•  During ‘one pedal drive’ activation, the vehicle will come to a stop when the accelerator pedal is released, even if the brake pedal is not pressed.
Graphic
When the vehicle is stopped or parked using ‘one pedal drive’ on steep hills, be sure to press the brake pedal.
To deactivate
•  To come out of one pedal drive press the one pedal drive button or Regen – button, then regen will set to level 3
•  The ‘one pedal drive’ is deactivated when the vehicle is turned OFF. Upon restarting the vehicle, the regenerative braking is automatically set to level 1.
•  When the gear is shifted to 'R' (Reverse), One Pedal Drive is turned off and regenerative braking is set to level 3.
•  Creep will not function in one pedal drive.
Limitations
Even when One-Pedal Driving is functioning normally, the vehicle may still move. Therefore, the driver should exercise caution when using this function in the following circumstances:
•  Driving on icy, snowy, wet, sandy, or muddy roads, or on manhole covers/potholes.
•  When the wheels are not properly aligned.
•  Conditions where wheel slip or spin occurs.
•  When the vehicle is heavily loaded.
•  When the vehicle is leaning to the left or right.
•  In the case of uneven or worn-out tires.
•  When driving uphill or downhill.
•  When driving on areas where the slope begins or ends.
•  When repeatedly stopping and starting on a ramp.
7.11 Auto Regen mode
The Auto Regen mode automatically adjusts regenerative braking based on the road gradient and the driving conditions of the vehicle ahead. By minimizing unnecessary brake and acceleration pedal inputs, the system enhances energy efficiency and assists the driver.
The Auto Regen mode automatically adjusts the regenerative braking level while coasting, but it is only a supplemental feature designed for the driver’s convenience.
The system cannot fully stop the vehicle or prevent collisions. Brake control may be insufficient in certain situations, such as when the vehicle ahead is traveling at high speed, suddenly stops, or when a vehicle cuts in unexpectedly, or when driving on a steep slope.
Always remain vigilant and maintain a safe distance to prevent unforeseen and sudden situations.
7.11.1 To activate Auto Regen mode
How to operate –
Graphic
Push and hold the paddle shifter (Regen –) for 1 second or more to activate the Auto Regen mode. The regenerative braking indicator will switch from the current level to 'AUTO'
When the Auto Regen mode is enabled, 'A' will be displayed for the regenerative braking level on the DID.
Graphic
The system automatically controls the regenerative braking when one of the following conditions is met:
•  The road gradient changes. (Ex. Uphill or Downhill drive)
•  The distance to the vehicle ahead increases or decreases.
•  The speed of the vehicle ahead increases or decreases.
The Auto Regen mode relies on the front-view camera in the vehicle. Any obstruction or foreign substances on the camera lens may impair the system’s function. Ensure the front-view camera remains clear for optimal performance.
The Auto Regen mode will not operate if the Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) warning light is illuminated on the DID. In such cases, the driver must manually adjust the vehicle speed using the accelerator or brake pedal, depending on the road and driving conditions ahead.
7.11.2 To de-activate Auto Regen mode
The Auto Regen mode will be temporarily disabled in the following situations,
Manually Cancelled: Push and hold the right-side paddle shifter for more than 1 second to toggle ON/OFF auto regen.
The 'AUTO' indicator will be replaced with the regenerative braking level indicator
Automatically Cancelled:
The Auto Regen mode will be automatically disabled when –
•  The Cruise Control system (including the Smart Cruise Control system) is active.
•  The Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) warning light is illuminated on the DID.
When the Auto Regen mode is automatically deactivated, manually adjust the vehicle speed by depressing the accelerator or brake pedal, depending on the road and driving conditions ahead.
7.11.3 Vehicle-to-Vehicle Distance Sensing Sensor (Front radar)
Graphic
Front Radar For the sensor's exact location, please refer to the image above.
To ensure proper operation of the Smart Recuperation System, always keep the bumper/radar clean and free of dirt, snow, and debris. Foreign metal substances on the bumper can interfere with the radar’s performance, potentially causing the system to temporarily stop or function improperly.
•  Do not place license plate frames or attach foreign objects, such as bumper stickers or bumper guards, near the radar sensor. These items can interfere with the sensor's performance and affect its ability to function properly.
•  Regularly clean the radar sensor and lens cover to ensure they remain free of dirt and debris.
•  Use only a soft cloth to wash the vehicle. Avoid spraying pressurized water directly onto the sensor or its cover.
•  Avoid applying unnecessary force to the radar sensor or its cover. Misalignment of the sensor may cause the Smart Recuperation System to malfunction, and a warning message may not be displayed. In such cases, we recommend that the vehicle be inspected by an authorized Mahindra dealer.
•  If the front bumper is damaged near the radar sensor, the Auto Recuperation System may not function correctly. In such cases, we recommend having the vehicle inspected by an authorized Mahindra dealer.
•  Use only genuine parts or equivalent parts specified for your vehicle to repair or replace a damaged sensor or sensor cover. Do not apply paint to the sensor cover.
7.11.4 System malfunction
Check Auto recuperation system
Graphic
The above message will appear if the system is not functioning properly. The system will be deactivated, and the 'AUTO' indicator on the DID will disappear, replaced by the regenerative braking level.
Check the front radar for any foreign substances, such as dirt, snow, or debris, that could obstruct the radar sensors.
If the system continues to malfunction, we recommend taking your vehicle to an authorized Mahindra dealer for further inspection.
7.11.5 Limitations of the system
The Auto Recuperation System may not function properly in certain situations where the driving conditions exceed the capabilities of the front radar sensor.
On Curves: When coasting on a curve, the system may not detect the vehicle in your lane, causing the regenerative braking level to reduce automatically. As a result, you may feel as though the vehicle is not decelerating.
Similarly, if the system suddenly detects the vehicle ahead, the regenerative braking level will increase automatically, making you feel as though the vehicle is decelerating more.
The driver must maintain a safe braking distance and, if necessary, press the brake pedal to reduce speed and ensure a safe distance is kept.
Your vehicle speed may decrease due to the presence of a vehicle in the adjacent lane.
On inclines: When coasting uphill or downhill, the system may fail to detect the vehicle in your lane, causing the regenerative braking level to reduce automatically. This may give the sensation that the vehicle is accelerating.
Similarly, if the system suddenly detects the vehicle ahead, the regenerative braking level will increase automatically, creating the sensation that the vehicle is decelerating.
The driver must maintain a safe following distance and, if necessary, apply the brake pedal to reduce speed and ensure a safe distance is maintained.
Lane changing
•  A vehicle moving into your lane from an adjacent lane will not be detected by the sensor until it enters the sensor's detection range.
•  The radar may not immediately detect a vehicle that cuts in suddenly. Always remain attentive to traffic, road, and driving conditions.
Vehicle recognition
Some vehicles in your lane may not be detected by the sensor, including
•  Narrow vehicles, like motorcycles or bicycles, may not be detected.
•  Vehicles that are offset to one side may not be detected.
•  Slow-moving vehicles or vehicles that decelerate suddenly may not be detected.
•  Stopped vehicles (The system may not detect a stopped vehicle until the vehicle ahead begins to move.)
•  Vehicles with a small rear profile, such as unladen trailers, may not be detected
A vehicle ahead may not be recognized correctly by the sensor if any of the following occur:
•  When the vehicle is tilted upwards due to overloading in the luggage compartment.
•  While the steering wheel is being turned.
•  When driving toward the edge of the lane.
•  When driving on narrow lanes or around curves.
•  Apply the brake or accelerator pedal as needed.
When using the Auto Recuperation System, please observe the following precautions:
•  If an emergency stop is required, you must apply the brakes manually.
•  Maintain a safe distance based on road conditions and vehicle speed. If the distance between vehicles is too short at high speeds, a serious collision may occur.
•  Always maintain a sufficient braking distance and apply the brakes to decelerate if necessary.
•  The Auto Recuperation System cannot detect stopped vehicles, pedestrians, or oncoming vehicles. Always remain vigilant and look ahead to avoid unexpected or sudden situations.
•  Vehicles frequently changing lanes in front of you may cause a delay in the system's response or may lead the system to react to a vehicle in an adjacent lane. Always drive cautiously to avoid unexpected or sudden situations.
•  The Auto Recuperation System may not recognize complex driving situations, so always stay alert to road conditions and control your vehicle speed accordingly.
•  In unfavorable conditions Auto recuperation systems may not function properly and the driver is required to always use their own judgment while driving and never fully rely on vehicle systems.
The Auto Recuperation System may be temporarily disabled due to:
•  Electrical interference.
•  Modification of the suspension.
•  Differences in tire wear or tire pressure.
•  Installing tires of a different type.
7.12 Brakes
Your vehicle is equipped with hydraulic brakes with Integrated Electronic Booster assisted with ABS and ESP in the front and rear wheels.
Disc brakes offer good braking capability and reduce stopping distance. Wet brake discs result in reduced braking efficiency. After a veihicle wash or driving the vehicle through water, apply and release brake pedal mildly while driving to remove the film of water from the brake disc.
1. Front brake Pad : The Front brake pads are equipped with Electronic Pad Wear Indicator Sensors, thus when the brake pads are worn out, the brake warning lamp on DID(Driver Information Display) will turn ON. Replace the brake pads as soon as possible
2. Rear Brake Pad : The rear brake pads are equipped with Electronic Pad Wear Indicator Sensors, thus when the brake pads are worn out, the brake warning lamp on DID will turn ON. Replace the brake pads as soon as possible
If the IGN is turned off while running, the power assist for the brakes may not work. You can still stop your vehicle by applying greater force to the brake pedal than typical. The stopping distance, however, will be longer than with power brakes.
Driving with wet brakes is dangerous and it can lead to accident on the road. Stopping distance increases considerably while braking.
Brake squeal occurs as a high frequency whistling noise usually at the end of the stop while pressing the brake pedal, squeal can occur from rear end. This is a normal condition caused by environmental factors such as cold, wet, snow, etc and vehicle usage pattern
Brake Creep-Groan occurs as a low-frequency (Kar-Kar) noise D/R mode is selected and the brake pedal is released slowly to move the vehicle
Above conditions are normal phenomenon and does not affect braking performance
7.12.1 Parking on a Hill/Incline
If you have to park the vehicle with the front side facing downhill, select Reverse (R) mode and turn the front wheels towards the kerb.
Always ensure that the vehicle is in Parking (P) mode before leaving the vehicle.
A – When parking on an uphill, turn the front wheels away from the Kerb/Pavement
B – When parking on a downhill, turn the front wheels towards the Kerb/Pavement.

•  Avoid using EPB after doing water wading. Please get the vehicle checked in workshop.
Servicing: Avoid getting your vehicle serviced at unauthorized service centers to prevent potential hazards or part failures.
•  The EPB can also be used in cases of emergency braking. Release the accelerator and Pull and hold the EPB button until your vehicle comes to standstill and EPB gets applied. This should be done only in emergency condition and not as a regular action.
•  The braking process is interrupted when the EPB button is released or the accelerator pedal is actuated in dynamic condition
•  The EPB AUTO release function will not be activated when the driver door is Open or the seat belt is not fastened.
•  Motor noise can be heard during the EPB operation, this is normal behavior.
•  If the EPB warning lamp stays on, have the vehicle serviced at a Mahindra Dealer or Mahindra Authorised Service Centre.
•  Do not let children or other people who are not familiar with the EPB system operate the EPB switch. There is a danger of accidents depending on the parking/stationary state of the vehicle.
•  If you hear noises or smell a burnt odor from the related components after using the EPB emergency mode, have the vehicle checked and serviced
7.12.6 Auto Vehicle Hold (AVH)
The AVH is a comfort feature offered with Electric parking brake.
The function of AVH is to hold the vehicle in standstill with the applied driver brake pressure
Once AVH switch is pressed, it remains in memory and thus driver doesn’t have to press AVH switch every time
The AVH feature can exist in 4 states in the vehicle, which are as follows.
AVH Off – AVH switch is not pressed, thus AVH is not available.
Graphic
AVH Standby – AVH is available but is in standby mode.
Graphic
AVH Active – AVH is available and is controlling/holding the vehicle in standstill.
Graphic
AVH Faulty – Indicates  some fault in AVH, because of which AVH not available
For the AUTO HOLD to function, the following conditions should be met.
•  Ignition ON
•  Driver door closed and Driver seat belt buckled.
When AVH is active, and Driver door is opened/Driver seat belt is unbuckled, the EPB gets automatically applied for safety reasons.
For AVH to be activated, the conditions of the automatic parking function must be met at the same time.
Do not rely solely on AVH to keep the vehicle stationary on steep slopes, inclines, slippery roads, or uneven surfaces.
Never exit the vehicle without confirming that the AVH and parking brake are fully engaged.
Activation of AVH
Graphic
1. Ensure driver door closed and Driver seat belt buckled
2. Turn on the ignition and enable drive mode then press the AUTO HOLD switch. Auto Hold tell-tale in DID goes to standby.
Deactivation of AVH
Graphic
Press the AUTO HOLD switch & AUTO HOLD is activated, to deactivate depress the AUTO HOLD Switch.
Operating Auto hold
1. Pressing the AUTO HOLD switch turns on the AUTO HOLD indicator on DID (white)
2. Depress the brake pedal while driving to stop the vehicle
3. The color of AUTO HOLD indicator on the DID is changed from white to green and the brake is applied
4. Slowly depress the accelerator pedal when driving off
5. The color of AUTO HOLD indicator on the DID is changed from green to white and the brake is released
If the Auto Vehicle Hold (AVH) is active state continuously for more than 10 minutes in less than 20% gradient or for more than 5 sec in greater than 20% gradient or if the driver door is opened/seat belt is unbuckled the EPB applies automatically and AVH is disabled.
•  When driving off on a downhill by depressing the accelerator pedal, be careful as the vehicle can accelerate suddenly and on uphill sufficient accelerator pedal input to be provided for overcoming the gradient.
•  Do not depress the accelerator pedal abruptly with the AUTO HOLD function is activated. Otherwise, the parking brake is released, and the vehicle can accelerate suddenly
•  If the EPB warning lamp is turned on or there is a fault in the EPB system, have the vehicle checked and serviced at a Mahindra Dealer or Mahindra Authorised Service Centre. If parking the vehicle is required in an emergency, pull over the vehicle on a flat surface and chock the wheels after shifting the gear selector lever to the P position
Controlled Deceleration for Parking (CDP)
•  The Controlled Deceleration for parking is a safety feature.
•  The CDP functions can be made used in any case such as Brake pedal/Integrated Electronic motor/Boost failure because of which sufficient brake force can’t be achieved through the brake pedal.
•  In such conditions, pressing the park mode switch triggers the ESC Control unit to generate a pressure build up in the brake system which produces the braking force at individual wheels to bring the vehicle to an emergency stop.
•  At the end of vehicle stop, Parking brake will engage. Move the shifter to D/R/N to release the EPB.
•  For unintentional application, if the codriver or any other person press the EPB switch without driver’s notice in dynamic condition, The CDP function can be overridden by the driver by pressing Accelerator pedal.
•  The CDP functionality having a high rate of deceleration, anyone other than the driver must be advised not to press the EPB switch in any case while driving.
•  The CDP function is a safety feature and must be used in the cases of emergency only.
EPB Roll Away Re-clamp
•  If the EPB system detects any rolling after EPB is applied, the motor on caliper re-clamps the disc to avoid any rolling.
•  As an added feature, to avoid roll away due the reduction in clamp force due to decrease in temperature, the EPB motor on caliper re-clamps the disc multiple times based on the temperature.
Servicing and Repairing
The EPB is a complex system involving electrical and hydraulics, it is strictly advised to get it repaired or serviced in a Mahindra Authorized service Centre.
7.12.7 Electric Parking Brake (EPB) Alert
Display
Operating Conditions
Graphic
This message is displayed on the DID when the EPB switch is released without depressing the brake pedal to deactivate EPB.
Graphic
This message is displayed on the DID in the following conditions:
1. When the accelerator pedal is depressed to auto release EPB, with EPB Applied and driver door open/driver seat belt unbuckled.
2. When the AVH switch is depressed to activate AVH, with driver door open/driver seat belt unbuckled.
7.12.8 Hazard on Panic Braking
Hazard lamps are turned ON during panic braking for 5 seconds when the following conditions are met:
•  Ignition is ON
•  Vehicle speed is greater than 60 kmph
•  Panic/sudden brake is applied and high deceleration rate is sensed
7.13 Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS)
The Anti-lock Brake System (also called as ABS) is designed to help prevent lock-up of the wheels and stable stopping of vehicle during a sudden, panic emergency braking or braking on slippery road surfaces. The ABS system takes input from wheel speed sensors and brake pedal switch to control the brake fluid pressures at the wheels to avoid wheel lock-up. It allows vehicle to be steered during braking.
ABS is activated only during wheel lock conditions where ABS takes over and prevents wheel lock.
You may also hear motor noise from the motor compartment. It is recommended to hold the brake pedal firmly while the ABS is active rather than pumping the brake pedal.
Depressing the brake pedal on slippery road surfaces as on a manhole cover, a steel plate at a construction site, a joint in a bridge, etc. on a rainy day, tends to activate the anti-lock brake system.
Graphic
The ABS warning lamp lights up when you switch ON the ignition and should go out after a few seconds. If the ABS warning lamp does not go out or if it comes ON while driving, it means there is a fault in the ABS system. In both cases, the normal braking system remains efficient, exactly as on a vehicle without ABS. The vehicle should be examined as soon as possible by an Mahindra Authorised Dealer.
The ABS is not designed to shorten the stopping distance: Always drive at a moderate speed and maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in front of you. The stopping distance may be longer in the following cases:
•  Driving on rough, gravel or snow-covered roads
•  Driving with tyre chains installed
•  Driving over the steps such as the joints on the road
•  Driving on roads where the road surface is potholes or large differences in surface height
Do not overestimate the Anti-lock Brake System: Although the Anti-lock Brake System assists in providing vehicle control, it is still important to drive with all due care and maintain a moderate speed and safe distance from the vehicle in front of you. There are limits to the vehicle stability and effectiveness of steering wheel operation even with ABS active.
If tyre grip performance exceeds its capability, or if hydroplaning occurs during high speed driving in the rain, the Anti-lock Brake System will not be able to completely avoid wheel lock-up
7.14 Electric Brake Force Distribution (EBD)
EBD is a subsystem of the ABS system, It prevents least loaded wheel from locking on application of brakes, thus allows the wheel to maintain tractive contact with the road surface. The system monitors the wheel speed and when it identifies any slip, the pressure in the wheel cylinders is dumped thus preventing the wheels from locking.
A fault with EBD is indicated by illumination of the parking brake as well as ABS warning lamps. The vehicle should be examined as soon as possible by an Mahindra Authorised Dealer.
7.15 Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
This system enhances directional control and stability of the vehicle under various driving conditions. The ESC corrects for over-steering and under-steering behavior of the vehicle by applying the brake on the appropriate wheel automatically.
ESC uses inbuilt sensors to determine the path that the driver intends to steer the vehicle , compares it to the actual path of the vehicle. When the actual path does not match the intended path, the ESC applies the brake of the appropriate wheel to assist in counteracting the condition of over-steer or under-steer.
Graphic
Over-steer - When the vehicle is turning more than appropriate for the steering wheel position.
Under-steer - When the vehicle is turning less than appropriate for the steering wheel position.
The ESC cannot overrule the natural laws of physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase the traction due to the prevailing road conditions. The ESC cannot prevent accidents, including those resulting from excessive speed in turns, driving on very slippery surfaces, or hydroplaning. Only a safe, attentive, and skilful driver can prevent accidents. The capabilities of an ESC-equipped vehicle can not compensate for reckless or dangerous driving that could endanger the user’s safety or the safety of others on road or passerby.
Electronic Stability Control (ESC) ON:
Graphic
Whenever the vehicle is started, the ESC system will be default active mode. This mode should be used for most driving conditions.
When the ESC is in operation, ESC indicator lamp will blink in the DID.
When the ESC is operating, You may also hear motor noise from the motor compartment.
When moving out of the mud or slippery road, accelerator response may be different because ESC system controls the RPM to come out of this slippery road condition. This is normal.
ESC OFF:
Graphic
In some driving conditions, to maximize traction, it may be beneficial to de-activate ESC.
Such conditions are:
•  To start in deep snow or on a loose surface
•  Driving in deep sand
•  Driving through deep mud etc.
Graphic
To de-activate ESC, press ESC OFF button on the driver side switch bank. Once ESC is selected, the ESC function will remain deactivated. A warning indicator will be illuminated in the Driver Information Display.
Press ESC OFF button to activate ESC function.
For safety reasons, ESC will be automatically re-activated once the vehicle speed crosses 65 kmph
Mahindra recommends that ESC be operational in all normal driving conditions.
When ESC is in OFF mode, other functions like HHC (Hill Hold Control), HBA (Hydraulic Brake Assist), HDC (Hill Descent Control), DTC (Drag Torque Control), ROM (Roll Over Mitigation) will be available
ESC, by default, will be in ON condition for every ignition cycle.
Graphic
If the ESC indicator blinks while driving, it indicates that ESC is working. However If this lamp is blinking continuously or remains ON, it indicates a malfunction in the ESC system. During that time vehicle speed will be limited to 25kmph. Drive carefully to the nearest Mahindra Authorised Dealer and get the ESC system checked.
7.16 Hill Descent Control (HDC)
Graphic
This System assists the driver to descend a steep slope by means of brake intervention limiting the vehicle speed without driver's input on brakes. This does not replace cruise control
During HDC, if the wheel slip becomes excessive, ABS will be activated automatically.
HDC is a user-intended function. To activate, press HDC button on the driver control switch bank. The LED on the button illuminates indicating the status. Press the button again to deactivate HDC.
The HDC feature can control the vehicle speed from 4 kmph to 40 kmph, Above 40 kmph the HDC feature will go to ready mode. The HDC feature will be deactivated automatically if vehicle speed is more than 60 kmph. (For Activating the HDC feature again, the driver needs to press the HDC button once again within the specified speed limits)
The HDC should be enabled only on steep gradient in OFF road condition. It is not recommended to be ON in plain road- to avoid accidental intervention
While HDC is controlling the vehicle speed, descent speeds can be varied by cruise buttons, accelerator pedal & brake pedal.
To Set the desired descending speed, follow the steps listed below:
•  SET Speed — This is the driver desired speed at which vehicle should descent. This can be set using HDC switch or brake/accelerator pedals. (example: when the driver activates HDC at a speed of 30 kmph, then set speed will be 30 kmph). HDC will limit vehicle descent speed to set value).
•  If driver presses the accelerator pedal and increases the speed from 30 kmph to 34 kmph and then releases the accelerator pedal. Now the new SET speed will be 34 kmph
•  Similarly, if the driver applies brake and reduces the speed from 30 kmph to 10 kmph and then releases the brake pedal, now the new SET speed will be 10 kmph
•  If the vehicle cruise speed is with in the HDC active region, similarly the set speed can be modified using cruise +/- buttons (by tapping the “SET —” or “SET +” buttons. Each press of the button will adjust the speed by approximately 0.5 kmph)
The descent speed increases only if the gradient is sufficiently steep to cause the vehicle to accelerate as the braking effect is reduced. On a shallow slope, pressing the “SET +” button may result in no speed increase.
7.17 Hill Hold Control (HHC)
Imagine a situation where your vehicle is stopped on an uphill incline. If you release the brake while moving off, there are chances that your vehicle may roll back. HHC helps in such situations by holding the vehicle from rolling back.
Hill Hold Control function uses the inbuilt acceleration sensor to identify the gradient and holds the vehicle for 2 seconds after the brake pedals are released. If the driver does not apply the throttle before this time expires, the system will release brake pressure and the vehicle will roll down the hill as normal
For the Hill Hold Control (HHC) system to activate, the following conditions must be met:
1. The Vehicle must be equipped with HHC
2. The vehicle must be on sufficient gradient
3. The Parking brake must not be applied
HHC is designed to function for both uphill and downhill scenarios, as long as the correct gears are selected. This feature enhances control and stability when starting on an incline or descending a slope.
•  Vehicle Facing Uphill – Drive (D) Mode is engaged for Forward movement
•  Vehicle Facing Downhill – Reverse (R) Mode should be selected to facilitate controlled descent
•  In some situations, when the conditions are not met, the HHC may not get activated. In such cases slight rolling may occur.
•  The Safety of the vehicles always lies in the hands of the driver, never rely on the HHC system to prevent rolling.
7.18 Hydraulic Fade Compensation (HFC)
Due to continuous brake operations, the temperature of the brake disc may get raised, due to which the friction between the brake pads and the brake disc may get reduced alarmingly, this is known as Brake Fading.
HFC provides an additional braking-force boost to the driver, based on the pad temperature model, brake pressure and deceleration rate, to reduce the braking distances in such cases.
The HFC will activate only during high brake pedal force application.
•  The HFC system cannot prevent collisions, the capabilities of an HFC equipped vehicle must never be exploited in a reckless or dangerous manner that could jeopardize the user’s safety.
•  The Safety of the vehicles always lies in the hands of the driver, never rely on the HFC feature to prevent road accidents.
7.19 Roll Over Mitigation (ROM)
Roll Over Mitigation system is a safety function which anticipates the wheel lift due to lateral forces. The ROM function analyses the rate of change of steering wheel angle and the wheel speed to determine any possible wheel lift, the system then applies appropriate brake and may also reduce the motor power to reduce the chances of wheel lift.
Minimum Vehicle speed for ROM = 25 kmph
Maximum Vehicle speed for ROM = 120 kmph
•  Many factors, such as vehicle loading, road conditions and driving conditions, influence the chance that wheel lift or rollover may occur.
•  The ROM system cannot prevent all roll overs; thus ROM equipped vehicle must never be exploited in a reckless or dangerous manner which could jeopardize the user's safety or the safety of others.
7.20 Brake Disc Wiping (BDW)
When a vehicle is driven in a wet condition; the accumulated wetness on the brake disks leads to an elongated brake response time.
The BDW function actuates the brakes with a low pressure, such that; the brake pads comes in contact with the rotating brake disks, creating a wiping action; thereby removing the moisture from the brake disks.
For the Brake Disc Wiping function to get activated, the following conditions must be met.
1. Vehicle speed above 70 kmph.
2. Accelerator Pedal must be pressed.
3. The Wipers must be in ON condition (Low/High Speed)
4. BDW may not get activated while driving through sharp corners
The Pressure generated in the BDW function is very small and this is not felt by the driver during normal driving conditions.
•  The system will not be able to sense water splashed on disc from situations such as water wash or water puddles.
•  It is suggested that the driver dry the brakes in the above said conditions by driving at very slow speed and applying the brakes lightly until the brake performance becomes normal.
7.21 Electric Brake Prefill - EBP
EBP is a value-added feature in ESC, the target of the function is to reduce the air gap of the wheel brake by putting low brake pressure to the brake pads such that the brake pads come in close proximity to the brake disc.
The system detects an emergency braking by monitoring the rate of release of the acceleration pedal. A sudden release of accelerator pedal signifies an upcoming sudden braking.
By actively pre-filling the brake-system, the brake response time is reduced for an upcoming braking and full vehicle deceleration is achieved earlier. This results in a shorter stopping distance.
7.22 Secondary Collision Mitigation System (SCM)
The SCM feature in the ESC system is an autonomous braking system which decreases the speed of the vehicle after the first collision by means of autonomous braking interventions. This reduces the risk of a subsequent crash due to uncontrolled vehicle movement.
For the Secondary Collision Mitigation feature to get activated, the following conditions must be met.
1. There must be a collision detected with a certain severity, where airbags gets deployed
2. The impact speed must be greater than approx. 10 km/h.
3. The brakes and ESC system should remain functional after impact.
4. The accelerator pedal must not be actuated.
The SCM system is designed to reduce secondary impact severity but does not replace safe driving practices. Vehicle damage resulting from excessive speeds or negligent driving will not be covered under warranty
7.23 Cooperative Regeneration
Cooperative Regeneration is an advanced feature designed to enhance energy efficiency in electric vehicles. This system works in tandem with the vehicle's regenerative braking system, it maximizes energy recovery during driving and braking phases. It helps to extend the vehicle’s driving range and improve overall performance, providing a smoother and more sustainable driving experience.
Below are the working procedures, feedback on co-operative regeneration:
Regenerative Braking
•  When you apply the brakes or release the accelerator pedal, the Cooperative Regeneration system engages, seamlessly activating regenerative braking.
•  This process converts the vehicle’s kinetic energy into electrical energy, which is stored directly in the battery.
•  By capturing and reusing this energy, the system helps recharge the battery, extending driving range and enhancing overall energy efficiency
•  The system intelligently adapts the level of regenerative braking based on real-time driving conditions, vehicle speed, and battery charge level.
•  This dynamic adjustment maximizes energy recovery, ensuring that the system captures the optimal amount of energy while maintaining a smooth and responsive driving experience
Driver Feedback :
•  As you drive, the Cooperative Regeneration system provides feedback on how efficiently you are using energy. This may be displayed through visual message encouraging smoother driving to maximize regeneration.
•  Adopting smooth acceleration and deceleration habits significantly enhances the effectiveness of the Cooperative Regeneration system.
Cooperative Features :
•  The Cooperative Regeneration system can also integrate with other vehicle systems, like Adaptive Cruise Control and navigation, to anticipate and adapt to upcoming traffic conditions and terrain. For instance, when nearing a downhill stretch, the system can pro actively increase regenerative braking to capture additional energy. This predictive adjustment allows for smarter energy recovery, enhancing efficiency by aligning regeneration with real-time driving conditions.
Driver Awareness
•  Although Cooperative Regeneration enhances energy efficiency, it’s crucial to remain attentive to road conditions and traffic. This system supports energy recovery but does not replace the need for careful, responsible driving. Staying focused on the road ensures both safety and optimal performance, allowing the system to assist effectively within safe driving practices.
Environmental Factors
•  Regenerative braking performance can vary with external conditions, such as weather or road surfaces. On wet or slippery roads, traditional braking may be needed to ensure safe and reliable stopping. Staying prepared to use conventional brakes when necessary ensures safety and maintains consistent performance in all driving conditions.
System Alerts
•  Pay attention to any alerts or notifications on the vehicle’s display regarding the regenerative braking system or battery status, as these can indicate important updates on system performance. Regular vehicle maintenance is key to keeping all systems running optimally, ensuring maximum efficiency, safety, and the full benefits of regenerative technology.
•  If you notice a decrease in regenerative braking performance, check the vehicle’s display for any warnings or alerts. These notifications can help identify potential issues and guide you toward any necessary adjustments or maintenance to restore optimal function.
•  Make sure the battery is adequately charged and that there are no obstructions affecting the vehicle’s braking system. This ensures that regenerative braking can operate effectively and maintain optimal performance during your drive.
•  For ongoing issues, refer to the vehicle's service manual or contact your authorized dealership for further assistance. They can provide expert guidance and support to address any concerns related to the regenerative braking system or overall vehicle performance.
Cooperative Regeneration is a driver-assistance feature designed to enhance your vehicle's efficiency and overall driving experience. However, it’s essential to prioritize safe driving practices and remain fully attentive to road conditions at all times. This ensures both safety and optimal performance, allowing the system to support you effectively without compromising control.

7.26 Semi Active Suspension
A semi-active suspension system is a type of automotive suspension that dynamically adjusts the damping characteristics of the shock absorbers to respond to changing road conditions, vehicle dynamics, and driver inputs.
There are three different damping modes are available as standard equipment, which can be selected via the HMI,
1. Default - by default
2. Range
3. Everyday
4. Race
If the semi-active suspension warning light appears on the DID it indicates a potential issue with the suspension system. It is recommended to contact Authorized Mahindra to resolve the issue.
The semi-active suspension system operates according to the selected drive mode, optimizing performance and comfort based on the driving conditions. Refer “Drive Mode” section for more details.
7.27 Special driving conditions
Driving Through Water:
Although your vehicle is capable of driving through shallow water, there are several precautions that must be considered before entering the water.
Never attempt to start the vehicle
•  Never drive through water when it flows above the bottom portion of the bumper or above the tyre center line
•  The water surface should not be higher than the lower edge of the underbody
•  High voltage battery and electrical/electronics components will get damaged internally if attempts are made to cross through deep water
•  Wet brake discs have a lower coefficient of friction resulting in reduced braking efficiency. Tap the brake pedal while driving to remove the moisture in brake disc surface
•  You must slow down while driving through shallow water. Speeding may cause water to splash onto the windshield, obstructing your vision. In extreme conditions, you may get a water wedge formation between the road and tyre causing loss of control in the vehicle.
•  The ground under the water might not be firm which could result the vehicle to move further down while driving the vehicle through it.
•  It may also enter the transaxle reducing the oil's lubricating qualities. If these are submerged in water, contact Mahindra authorised service center or RSA
•  Sand, mud/sludge that has accumulated in around brake drums/discs may affect braking efficiency. This may also damage brake system components. Wet brakes cannot stop the vehicle as effectively as dry brakes. Dryness of brakes can be improved by driving the vehicle slowly while applying light pressure on the brake pedal
•  When driving through water, traction or brake capability may be limited. Always perform a maintenance inspection after each day of off-road driving that has taken you through water
•  Do not stop the vehicle while in the water
If any orange-colored cables (High voltage Cables) on the vehicle are visible, in order to prevent electric shock or even death, do not make any contact with any cable.
If water enters inside the vehicle or fully submerged in water, do not drive the vehicle. Contact RSA / Mahindra Authorised Dealer immediately. Never touch the orange-colored cables because an electric shock may occur, causing injury or death.
If your vehicle is submerged:
If Your stationary Vehicle is Submerged up to OR Lower edge of underbody:
Although your vehicle is capable of driving through shallow water, there are several precautions that must be considered before entering the water.
Graphic
Contact Mahindra Authorised Dealer immediately. Have the vehicle towed to nearest Mahindra Authorised Dealer to check any entry of water into any electrical/electronics components
All fluids including transaxle fluids required to be changed in case of water ingress and contamination
Driving Through Flowing Water:
If the water is swift flowing and rising (as in storm run-off) avoid crossing until the water level recedes and/or the flow rate is reduced. The flowing water can erode the streambed causing your vehicle to sink into deeper water. Determine the exit point(s) that are downstream of your entry point to compensate for drifting.
Driving at night:
Night driving indeed poses more risks than daytime driving due to reduced visibility, increased glare, and the higher likelihood of encountering drowsy or impaired drivers. Here are some important tips to remember:
•  Reduce your speed and increase the distance between your vehicle and others, as nighttime visibility is often limited—especially in areas without street lighting.
•  Adjust your mirrors to minimize glare from other vehicle’s headlights.
•  Ensure your head lamps are clean and correctly aligned. Dirty or misaligned headlights can significantly reduce your visibility and make it harder to see obstacles, road signs, and other vehicles at night.
•  Avoid staring directly at oncoming headlights, as the glare can temporarily impair your night vision and make it harder to see the road.
Driving in the rain
Driving in rain and on wet roads can be hazardous due to reduced traction and limited visibility. Here are a few things to consider when driving in the rain or on slick pavement:
•  Slow down and allow extra following distance. A heavy rainfall makes it harder to see and increases the distance needed to stop your vehicle.
•  Turn OFF your Cruise Control.
•  Replace your windshield wiper blades as soon as they show signs of streaking or leave sections of the windshield unswept.
•  Ensure your tires have sufficient tread depth. Worn tires with inadequate tread can reduce traction on wet pavement, increasing the risk of skidding, making it difficult to stop quickly and possibly lead to an accident.
•  Turn on your headlights to increase your visibility to other drivers, especially in rain, fog, or low-light conditions.
•  Driving too quickly through large puddles can wet your brakes, reducing their effectiveness. If you need to drive through puddles, do so slowly to avoid splashing water onto the braking components and maintain better control of your vehicle.
If you suspect your brakes are wet, gently apply them while driving to help dry them out and restore normal braking function.
7.27.1 Winter Driving
Winter’s harsh weather condition can accelerate tire wear and lead to various vehicle issues. To minimize winter driving problems, you should take the following suggestions:
Snow or icy conditions
Enable the snow mode in the right side of the page in Drive modes
Keep a safe distance between your vehicle and the one ahead to ensure you have enough time to react to sudden stops or obstacles.
Brake gently to stay in control, particularly on snowy or icy roads. Speeding, rapid acceleration, sudden braking, and sharp turns are especially hazardous in winter conditions. Sudden braking on slippery surfaces can lead to skidding, so maintain a smooth, steady approach to all movements for safer driving.
Always carry emergency equipment in your vehicle to be prepared for unexpected situations. Essential items to include are tow straps or chains, a flashlight, emergency flares, sand or kitty litter for traction, a shovel, jumper cables, a window scraper, gloves, a ground cloth, coveralls, and a blanket. These supplies can help you manage emergencies, especially in harsh weather conditions, and ensure your safety while on the road.
Snow tires should be the same size and type as your vehicle's standard tires to ensure proper safety and handling. Using mismatched tires can compromise traction, stability, and control, especially in winter conditions, potentially affecting your vehicle's performance and safety.
When installing snow tires, ensure they are radial tires of the same size and load range as your vehicle’s original tires. Mount snow tires on all four wheels to maintain balanced handling in all weather conditions. Keep in mind that snow tires may provide less traction on dry roads compared to your vehicle’s standard tires. Always consult with your tire dealer for maximum speed recommendations to ensure safe driving.
Before installing studded tires, be sure to check local and municipal regulations, as some areas may have restrictions on their use

8.2 Collision Warning
8.2.1 Auto Emergency Braking and Forward Collision Warning (AEB & FCW)
Collision warning system alerts the driver by providing audio and visual warning when there is a possibility of collision with rear end of the preceding vehicles, cyclists, standing cattle or pedestrians detected ahead. if driver fails to take actions within a rational time, system will apply braking in certain situations to mitigate the collision.
Disclaimer
•  System can detect vehicles, cyclists, standing cattle and pedestrians but not in all situations. System's capacity to assess certain traffic situations is a supplemental aid to the driver and does not function in all driving/traffic situations or weather/road conditions. It can never replace the driver’s attention to traffic conditions or his/her responsibility for operating the vehicle in a safe manner. Refer system limitation section for more information about system limitation. Read the manual carefully in detail before using the system.
•  Failure to follow the warnings and instructions for proper use of the system could result in serious injury or death.
•  The Collision Mitigation System is a supplemental aid to the driver. It is not a replacement for the driver. It is driver's responsibility to monitor traffic conditions and drive the vehicle safely. It cannot prevent accidents due to carelessness or dangerous driving techniques.
•  System does not function in all driving, traffic, weather and road conditions.
•  System does not detect all kinds of vehicles, bicyclists, cattle and pedestrians.
•  System does not detect small animals like dog, monkey, calves etc.
•  System may sometimes provide warning and braking for obstacles on road like barricade, sitting cows etc.
•  System is designed to intervene as late as possible i.e. in emergency to help avoid unnecessary activation.
•  Vehicles, Pedestrians, cattle or cyclists at an offset may not be detected by FCW/AEBS system.
•  Collision Mitigation System works on prediction of possible collision with the objects in front of vehicle by assuming the objects movements in certain directions. Sometimes the objects movement direction may not match to the prediction and the system may react early and provide warning or perform braking even though the object may not be in the host vehicle path.
•  Only rear end of the preceding vehicles are identified by the system and warning or braking as needed will be provided by the system. System may not react or providing warning or braking for a crossing or oncoming vehicle. System may not react to a stationary vehicle if the vehicle is stationed in crossing or oncoming pose.
Collision Warning comprises of the following functions:
Forward Collision Warning (FCW): When enabled, alerts the driver in case of a possible collision detected by the system.
Auto Emergency Braking (AEBS) When enabled, can provide a braking assist to mitigate the collision detected by the system.
There are situations where the system may not detect a possible collision, driver has to take control of the vehicle always.
System Operation
Prerequisite for activation:
AEBS or FCW gets ready to be activated when turned ON from DID settings and when the following prerequisites are satisfied
- The braking system is ready.
- Vehicle speed is within system operating limit
- No other system failures or degradation of functions related to Collision mitigation systems like Braking system, Electric Power train management system, Steering system etc.
Steps to Activate AEBS/FCW System:

When the AEBS is turned off, the AEBS OFF telltale will be ON in DID
Forward collision Warning Timing
The driver can select the level 1 warning activation time in the Center Information display for driver assistance.
Graphic
The options for the level 1 Warning include the following:
Early - When this option is selected, warning is provided at higher time to collision than "Normal" setting. if you are experiencing frequent warning, you can change setting to "Normal" or "Late"
Normal - When this option is selected, warning is provided at higher time to collision than "Late" setting.
Late - When this option is selected, warning is provided at shorter time to collision.
There is a minimum time interval of 60 seconds required for system to provide successive AEBS.
•  No automatic system can be guaranteed to function 100% correctly in all situations. We recommend that the driver shall remain in active control at all times and use the feature as an assistive feature rather than a replacement for the driver.
•  Never test Collision Mitigation System by driving toward a person or object. This could result in serious injury or death.
•  To help make Collision Mitigation System as effective as possible, it is recommended to always use the setting "Early"
8.2.2 AEBS/FCW for Vehicles
To enable the system to detect rear end of preceding vehicles ahead, the vehicle driving speed must be at least 10 kmph
Below 10 kmph FCW/AEBS will not work.
System detects types of vehicles that are either stationary or moving in the same direction as your vehicle. In order to detect a vehicle in darkness, its headlights and taillights must be ON and clearly visible.
Minimum overlap with the bumper should be 50% for system to detect a front preceding four wheel vehicle. Minimum overlap with the bumper should be 50% for system to detect a motorbike/two wheeler
When there is a possibility of collision with crossing vehicles (except two wheeler), AEBS provides warning & full braking if the vehicle speed is in between 20 - 30 kmph and the speed of crossing vehicle is in between 20 - 30 kmph. At speed combinations other than mentioned above, collision braking is subject to the system's detection ability.
Graphic
Level 1 Warning:
The driver is alerted to the risk of an imminent collision by first level of visual and audible warning
Graphic
Level 2 Warning:
If the driver does not take action or the driver braking force is not enough to mitigate collision, system issues the second level of visual and audible warning and applies partial braking.
Graphic
Level 3 Warning:
After second level warning, If the driver does not take action or driver braking force is not enough and risk of a collision is imminent, the system applies harder braking along with third level of visual and audible warning.
System applying AEBS braking can only mitigate a possible collision and does not guarantee in avoiding the collision. Driver has to take necessary braking or steering actions to avoid the collision.
During harder braking, there are possibilities that the occupants may experience a high amount of physical shock due to the braking force which may cause uncomfortable feeling or injury. Take necessary health checkups and precautions when experienced.
All the occupants should wear seat belts, as the system braking may lead to high level of motional inertia, where unbelted occupants are in a risk of getting injured.
Vehicle’s brake lights come on when braking is performed by the AEBS.
If driver applies hard brake during drive , dynamic braking system activates to boost braking force.
When “Warning” option for collision warning is selected in CID settings, the driver is alerted to the risk of an imminent collision by visual and audible warnings. Automatic Braking will not be provided in this setting.
When system has applied the brakes, a pop-up message will be displayed as "Automatic Emergency Braking Completed".
If the vehicle driving speed is above 85 kmph, AEBS third level warning won’t come and system won’t apply full braking. In this case first and second level warning alone will be provided. Never wait for a warning or Collision Mitigation System to take action.
The maximum level of braking is limited to 50 kmph of speed drop. E.g. if AEBS is initiated at 70 kmph, then by reaching 20 kmph, the brakes will be released. Driver has to always take control of the vehicle.
If AEBS operation results in vehicle stopping completely, the vehicle will remain at standstill until the driver input is provided.
8.2.3 AEBS/FCW for Pedestrian
To enable the system to detect a pedestrian, the vehicle driving speed must be at least 10 kmph.
For pedestrian detection clear information about the person's head, arms, shoulders, legs, the upper and lower parts of the body and a person's normal pattern of movement are required. In order to detect a pedestrian, there must be a contrast to the background. If there is little contrast, the person may not be detected.
If major parts of the pedestrian's body are not visible to the camera, person may not be detected.
In order to detect a pedestrian, the system must have a full view of the person's entire body and the person must be at least 80 cm tall.

If the vehicle driving speed is above 65 kmph, AEBS second and third level warning won’t come for cow. Hence system won’t apply full braking. If the vehicle driving speed is above 65 kmph and below 85 kmph, then first level warning alone will be provided. Never wait for a warning or for Collision Mitigation System to take action.
The maximum level of braking is limited to 50 kmph of speed drop. E.g. if the AEBS is initiated at 70 kmph, then by reaching 20 kmph, the brakes will be released. Driver has to be in control of the vehicle always.
Minimum overlap should be 25% for system to react to a cow
8.2.6 AEBS/FCW for any General Object
For General object detecting, the size of the object which present a collision risk shall be above 30 cm x 30 cm and the vehicle driving speed must be at least 10 kmph.
The detection of the general object (for example, barricade, sitting animals, calves, cones etc) are subject to the clear visibility of the object in contrast to the back ground
Any moving general object other than the listed categories of vehicles, pedestrian, motorbike, cyclist and cow are not detected by the system and hence there will not be any warning or braking provided by the system.
Minimum overlap should be 25% for system to react to a general object.
If the vehicle driving speed is above 65 kmph, AEBS second and third level warning won’t come for general object. Hence system won’t apply full braking. Never wait for a warning or for Collision Mitigation System to take action.
8.2.7 AEBS for Vehicles - Junction Turning
For detection of an approaching vehicle in junction turning scenarios the vehicle driving speed must be between 10-30 kmph and oncoming vehicle should be clearly visible and moving in the speed range of 30 kmph to 70 kmph.
To detect an approaching vehicle in situations where there is a risk of a collision, that approaching vehicle must be within detection range and your vehicle must be in left lane making a right turn with the right turn indicator ON.
In junction turning scenarios, system applies braking and there is no warning.
Depending on vehicle speed and distance to the target ahead, as well as driving and roadway conditions, the system may help mitigate the consequences of a collision and cannot completely avoid the collision. The driver is responsible for maintaining a safe distance and speed. Never wait for a warning or AEBS to take action.
The automatic braking will cease under the following conditions:
•  When steering is applied to avoid a collision
•  When the accelerator pedal is depressed
•  When there is no longer a vehicle detected ahead.
•  When driver presses and releases brake pedal.
8.2.8 Collision Warning Troubleshooting

•  If radar misaligned vertically or horizontally, Collision warning may produce frequent false warning or deceleration or no warning/ no deceleration for front preceding vehicle. Visit nearest Mahindra service center for radar alignment.
When any vehicle moves greater than +/- 20 deg. to host vehicle direction:
Graphic
If any vehicle moves at heading angle greater than +/- 20 deg. to the host vehicle system may not consider it. Driver must be alert and take control.
When it is difficult to obtain view by the camera:
Graphic
Due to poor visibility by camera like sunlight or any other source of light on camera. System may not function as intended Driver must be alert and take control of the vehicle
When the tail light of the front preceding vehicle is asymmetrical at night:
Graphic
At night, if the preceding vehicle's tail lamps are not in symmetry or mounting positions are unusual, system may not function as intended. Driver shall be alert and take control of the vehicle.
Pedestrian/cow suddenly jumping in to the host vehicle lane too closer to host vehicle:
Graphic
System may not consider if a pedestrian suddenly jumps in to the lane / area very closer to host vehicle. Driver shall be alert and take control of vehicle
If a part of the body of the pedestrian is a covered or standing pedestrian:
Graphic
In the case of pedestrians whose body part is obscured by umbrellas, bags, special clothes, etc., detection may not be accurate & system may not function as intended. Driver shall be alert and take control of vehicle
Difficult to distinguish pedestrians/cows due to low illumination:

Pedestrians with lower height:
Graphic
System may not function as intended with pedestrians with lower height
Risk of collision in proximity cut-in:
Graphic
There is a close-sensing blind spot, and there is a risk of collision at close cut-in of adjacent lane vehicles.
Intersection situation:
Graphic
The control target of the radar is selected as the control target only for the rear surface of the vehicle driving in the AEBS vehicle driving direction.
Therefore, there is a risk of collision for vehicles moving at right angles to the direction of intersection or for vehicles turning right
The condition is that target is not detected at the road inclination change point:
Graphic
Due to the vertical angle limit of the radar, it is impossible to detect the front target (vehicle, pedestrian) in uphill and downhill hill.
The situation where the load is protruding from the rear of the vehicle:
Graphic
When a specific type of load is loaded or a special vehicle, it can collide if it is not selected as the control target due to the sensor detection limit
When target can not be detected due to sensor contamination:
Graphic
In case of Sensor (Radar, Camera) contamination, blockage can occur and collision of the front preceding vehicle and pedestrians is possible
When driving on a large curve road:
Graphic
When driving on a large curve road, due to the sensor limit, the front preceding vehicle and the pedestrian can collide.
When it is impossible to obtain the driver's field of vision:
Graphic
If the driver uses the AEBS in the unconfined (snow, rain, fog, etc.), the sensor limit may cause a collision between the vehicle and pedestrians ahead.
Detection problems due to complicated structures around roads:
Graphic
If a construction section, railroad track, or other metallic object is on the road (eg, tollgate, subway construction site, tunnel, lane-proximity guard rail, etc.) AEBS/FCW will not work.
Collision Mitigation System does not react for pot-holes:
The Collision mitigation system does not recognize or react to potholes, road irregularities, or small surface hazards.

8.2.10 Rear Collision Warning
Rear Collision Warning is an Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) feature designed to help prevent rear-end collisions with approaching vehicles. The system continuously monitors the area behind the vehicle and provides timely alerts to the driver in case of a potential collision.
Steps to Enable Rear Collision Warning:
In Centre Information Display (CID) Go to App Drawer / Vehicle Apps / Drive Assist / Assistants / Collision warning / Rear Collision Warning (Enable/Disable)
Whenever the vehicle is restarted, the Rear Collision Warning function automatically retains the last used setting.
Graphic
System Operation
The Rear Collision Warning function operates only when the following conditions are met:
•  The vehicle must be in forward gear.
•  The vehicle’s speed must be above 60 km/h.
•  The vehicle must be going on a straight road.
When a vehicle is detected in the rear collision zone of the host vehicle, the Rear Collision Warning function activates and provides the following alerts:
Graphic
•  Visual Warning: A pop-up message is displayed in the Driver Information Display.
Graphic
•  Audio Warning: An alert chime to notify the driver.
•  Haptic Warning: Steering wheel vibration to enhance driver awareness.
•  Hazard Lamp Indication The hazard lamps blink to signal a potential collision to the rear vehicles.
The Rear Collision Warning function activates upon detecting fast moving closing vehicles within the rear collision zone of the host vehicle.
•  The Rear Collision Warning function does not operate when the vehicle is in park mode or reverse gear.
•  The system is not designed to detect or warn about pedestrians approaching the host vehicle from behind.

Limitations
The Rear Collision Warning function is subject to certain system limitations and may be unavailable or partially available under the following conditions. Failure to operate the vehicle in accordance with these limitations could result in serious injury or death:
•  The system may not operate properly in conditions such as snow, rain, or other severe weather events.
•  If any of the rear corner Radars are covered with snow, rain, dirt, or other debris, the system may not function correctly.
•  Driving on steep downhill slopes or roads with sharp curves may hinder the system’s ability to detect vehicles in the rear zone.
•  Interference from other radar sources could disrupt the system's performance.
Additionally, when a trailer is fixed to the vehicle, the Rear Collision Warning function will become unavailable.
8.2.11  Blind Spot Detection (If equipped)
The Blind Spot Detection (BSD) feature enhances driver safety by monitoring the vehicle's blind spots on both sides. When a vehicle enters the blind spot area or a fast-approaching vehicle is detected in adjacent lanes, the system provides visual and audible alerts to warn the driver. This helps prevent potential collisions during lane changes by alerting the driver to unseen vehicles, contributing to safer and more informed driving decisions.
Visual warnings are displayed on the Outside Rearview Mirror (ORVM), Dynamic Visualization screen and VisionX Display.
Graphic
Driver can turn ON or OFF BSD from the Centre Information Display Drive Assist Settings
Steps to Activate Blind Spot Detection:
In Centre Information Display (CID) Go to App Drawer / Vehicle Apps / Drive Assist / Assistants / Collision Warning / Blind Spot Detection (Warning / OFF)
Graphic
Blind Spot Detection (BSD) enabling conditions (BSD Warning will illuminate ON if the following conditions are met):
1. The Blind Spot Detection (BSD) system is set to 'Warning' in the user menu
2. The Blind spot detection will work for speeds above 20 kmph
3. For the Blind Spot Detection (BSD) system to activate and provide a warning, the target vehicle's speed must be within a range of 10 kmph to 100 kmph and the vehicle must be in a forward gear position.
When the Blind Spot Detection (BSD) system detects a vehicle in the blind spot zone, it illuminates a telltale indicator in the corresponding side's Outside Rear View Mirror (ORVM). This visual alert in the ORVM helps the driver quickly recognize the presence of a vehicle in the blind spot without taking their eyes off the road, enhancing safety and reducing the risk of lane-change collisions.
If the turn indicator is activated while there is a vehicle detected in the left/right blind zone, the Blind Spot Detection (BSD) system responds with multiple alerts to increase driver awareness:
1. The blind spot LED on the left/right Outside Rear View Mirror (ORVM) illuminates to signal the presence of a vehicle in the left/right blind spot.
2. An audible alert is triggered to warn the driver of the potential hazard.
3. A visual warning appears on the Driver Information Display (DID) to further emphasize the risk.
User selection will be retained across Battery or ignition cycles. This means that any preferences set by the user, such as enabling or disabling the BSD alerts, will persist even after the vehicle is turned off and restarted. The system will automatically restore the last selected settings, ensuring consistency in the driver's chosen configuration without requiring reconfiguration each time the vehicle is used.
Driver Assistance App > Collision Warning > Blind Spot Detection (Warning / OFF)

Graphic
Driver can choose to mute the audible warning by following below steps.
1. Go to DRIVER ASSIST settings.
2. Select Response
3. Disable
BSD system considers vehicles, motorcycles and bicycles as blindspot targets.
Blind spot warning will not be provided when your vehicle is faster than the blindspot vehicle by more than 5 kmph
BSD may not provide the warning when there is actually a vehicle in the blindspot and the relative speed between your vehicle and the blindspot vehicle is too high.
Do not completely rely on the system while performing a lane change manoeuvre. Driver is always responsible to check if there is any vehicle in the blindspot before planning to change the lanes
If driver activates the turn signal to change the lane (right or left), and if the BSD is active then it will detect the objects(moving) in the blind spot area of that side and alert the driver.
BSD System Troubleshooting:
If any of below mentioned messages is displayed in the DID means that the system is not functioning properly and should be turned off.
However message will not be displayed in all situations in which the corner radar sensor is obstructed. For this reason, the driver must ensure that the area of the bumper in front of each corner radar sensor is always kept clean.
Graphic
In case of temporarily abnormal conditions due to radar sensor blockage, corner radar malfunction lamp will be ON along with the additional warnings which indicate the exact corner radar sensor which has got blocked.
Graphic
Graphic
Graphic
Graphic
The following table lists possible causes for this message being displayed and suitable actions:
Cause
Action
If the bumper in front of the respective corner radar is dirty or covered with snow/ice,
It is important to clean or clear the bumper area in front of the corner radar
Heavy rain or snow is interfering with the radar signals
No Action Possible, During heavy precipitation (such as rain, snow, or sleet), the functionality of the Blind Spot Detection (BSD) system’s radar sensors may be temporarily affected.
Swirling water or snow kicked up from the road surface can interfere with the radar signals
No Action Possible, On a very wet or snow-covered road surface, the Blind Spot Detection (BSD) system's radar may experience reduced functionality, as the radar signals can be affected by reflective surfaces like water or snow.
The bumper in front of the radar is clean, but the warning message remains displayed,
If the Blind Spot Detection (BSD) system displays a message indicating an obstruction, even though the radar area has been cleared, you may simply need to drive the vehicle straight above 45 kmph for few minutes for the radar to recalibrate and recognize that it is no longer obstructed.
Graphic
If the BSD malfunction lamp remains illuminated after performing the above actions and restarting the vehicle, please have the system inspected by an authorized Mahindra dealer for further service.
In the event of a system malfunction caused by a corner radar sensor failure, the corner radar malfunction telltale will remain illuminated. A pop-up message will also appear in the Driver Information Display (DID) stating the specific sensor that has failed. Contact an Mahindra Authorised Dealer immediately in this case.

8.2.13 High Beam Assist
High Beam assist function is intended to reduce the glare produced by the High Beam lamp which in turn aids the drivers of Oncoming vehicles to maneuver safely.
High Beam assist feature automatically turns high beam ON or OFF depending on the vehicle speed, intensity of the light, source of preceding and oncoming vehicles and the surrounding light condition
Steps to Activate HBA System:
In Centre Information Display (CID) Go to App Drawer / Vehicle Apps / My Vehicle / Exterior/ High Beam Assist/ (Enable Disable)
Graphic
HBA enabling conditions:
•  High beam Assist is enabled in CID
•  Head Lamp “Auto mode” is selected in the Combination Switch
•  Head Lamp switch should be in “High Beam” position
•  Night condition is detected, and Low beam is already turned ON through the Light Sensor

Once HBA is activated:
HBA feature will Turn OFF High Beam when any of the light sources from oncoming / Preceding vehicle is detected in front of vehicle.
HBA feature will Turn ON High Beam when No light source is detected by the camera from Oncoming/Preceding vehicle or from other light sources(depends on intensity) for few seconds.
High Beam Assist is only intended to assist the driver. The driver is still responsible for controlling the headlights through manual ON/OFF depending on visibility requirements.
The High Beam Assist system changes Low Beam to High Beam after Switch Delay Time (1sec)
HBA System Limitations
The High Beam Assist (HBA) system is subject to certain limitations, which may prevent the high beam from activating or deactivating under specific conditions:
•  When the light from an oncoming or preceding vehicle is not detected due to damaged or obscured lamps.
•  When the headlights or taillights of other vehicles have non-standard color, brightness, or shape.
•  When the lamps of oncoming or preceding vehicles are covered by dust, mud, snow, or water.
•  During poor visibility caused by fog, heavy rain, or snow.
•  When the headlamp alignment is improperly adjusted.
•  While driving on narrow, curved, or rough roads.
•  When driving uphill or downhill.
•  When near bright streetlights, reflective signs, mirrors, or flashing signs.
•  When the vehicle is tilted, such as due to a flat tire or being towed.
•  When a bicycle’s light is weak or far away.
•  When the light from oncoming or preceding vehicles is too small, weak, too low, or too high.
•  When the windshield is dirty, or something blocks the camera sensor.
•  In construction areas with temporary reflectors.
•  Near traffic lights, building signs, lightning rods, reflective center line markers, variable speed signs, or when vehicle lights reflect off buildings or road surfaces.
8.3 Cruise Control
8.3.1 Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is designed to detect vehicles ahead, helping to maintain a preset speed and a safe following distance automatically.
Graphic
The different Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) modes are as below:
•  Speed Control Mode - If no target vehicle is detected, the ACC maintains the speed set by the driver.
•  Follow Mode - When a target vehicle is identified, ACC switches to follow mode and follows the target vehicle.
•  Stop Mode - If the target vehicle stops, ACC switches from follow to stop mode, and the host vehicle also stops. If the target vehicle starts within configured time the host vehicle also starts following the target vehicle.
•  Stop-Hold Mode - After the configured time in Stop mode, ACC switches to stop-hold mode. The driver needs to issue a command (Resume button or accelerator pedal input) to switch back to Follow mode.
ACC Switches
The ACC (Adaptive Cruise Control) switches on the steering wheel has the following functions for operating the ACC system:
Graphic
These switches enable the driver to control ACC mode, set the cruising speed, resume previous settings, adjust following distance, and cancel the system as needed.
1. ON/OFF Switch - This switch activates or deactivates the ACC system. When turned on, the system begins monitoring for target vehicles.
2. Set (Set +/-) - This switch when toggled (upward/downward) sets the current speed as the desired cruising speed. Toggle upwards (set +), or holding it towards upward direction, increases the set speed. Toggle downwards (set -), or holding it towards downward direction, decreases the set speed.
3. Resume - Press the switch to resume the ACC previously set speed in the same driving cycle.
Do not use RESUME button to Set Speed immediate after ACC ON. Do use only SET+/SET-
4. Target Distance Level (Time Gap) - This allows the driver to adjust the following distance from the target vehicle from Level 1 – Level 4
In an Adaptive Control (ACC) system, the brake and accelerator pedals influencing the ACC as follows:
1. Brake Pressed – ACC is Disengaged (Standby Mode): When the driver presses the brake pedal, it overrides the ACC system disengages and goes into standby mode. This allows the driver to have full control over the vehicle's speed and braking. To resume ACC, the driver can use the Resume button on the steering wheel.
2. Accelerator Pedal Pressed – ACC is Overridden by the Driver: When the driver presses the accelerator pedal, ACC control is overridden and ACC allows the vehicle to accelerate. The ACC system continues to monitor the target vehicle but does not actively control speed until the accelerator pedal is released, at which point it will resume following the target vehicle at the set following distance and speed. However, if the accelerator is pressed for more than 60 seconds it will turn off ACC
This interaction between the brake, accelerator, and ACC system allows for smooth transitions between manual and adaptive control, giving the driver flexibility when needed.

When ACC is engaged, it allows the vehicle to cruise at the desired ‘set speed’. In traffic conditions if a vehicle is detected in the front of your vehicle, then ACC reduces the vehicle speed to match the front preceding vehicle speed. The distance from the front preceding vehicle is maintained as per the Distance level set by the driver.
•  It is the driver’s responsibility to stay alert and to be in active control of the vehicle at all times.
•  ACC is an aid to assist the driver. It is not a collision avoidance system.
•  ACC is designed to be a supplementary driving aid. It is not, however, intended to replace the driver's attention and judgement. The driver is responsible for observing all traffic and safety rules, including maintenance of safe distance and speed and must intervene if Adaptive Control does not maintain a suitable speed or suitable distance to the vehicle ahead
•  Always drive carefully and attentively when using the ACC system. Read and understand the Owner’s Manual thoroughly before using the system.
•  ACC has limited braking capability and may not stop the vehicle in time to avoid a collision, if the front preceding vehicle decelerates quickly or a new vehicle cuts-in front always be prepared to apply brake.
•  Improper use of ACC can lead to a crash or an accident. In the event of such crash / accident, please take the vehicle to the nearest Mahindra authorised service center.
•  Failure to follow the alerts and instructions for proper use of system can result in serious injury.
•  Always observe the posted speed limits and do not set the speed over them.
•  Use ACC in appropriate roads with proper lane marking and sign boards.
•  When two-wheeler cuts out, ACC may not be able to identify the vehicle in front of two-wheeler.
•  Do not use ACC in busy areas where multiple road users cross the vehicles intended path.
•  ACC may not be able to stop behind stopped vehicles.
•  ACC may not be able to identify a two-wheeler, not to follow two wheeler.
ACC may not detect all types of vehicles and driver has to be vigilant to take over control at all times.

Graphic
ACC indicator will be displayed in green.
•  Set speed will be displayed as set by driver.
•  Time interval bars will be displayed.
ACC has four modes:
1. Speed Control Mode: During Speed Control Mode, time gap indicator will be displayed
ACC operation When No Front Preceding vehicle detected ahead: When there is no front preceding vehicle detected ahead, ACC maintains the speed set by the driver.
2. Follow Control Mode: During Follow Mode, front preceding vehicle Indicator will be displayed if a front preceding vehicle is detected.
ACC operation When Front Preceding Vehicle detected ahead: When there is a preceding vehicle, ACC tries to maintain a safe gap to the front preceding vehicle by reducing the speed accordingly within comfortable deceleration limits.
ACC operation When Front Preceding Vehicle moved out from its lane: When the front preceding vehicle has moved out from your lane of travel, ACC accelerates and maintains vehicle speed to the set speed.
3. Stop Mode - If the target vehicle stops, ACC switches from follow to stop mode, and the host vehicle also stops. If the target vehicle starts within configured time the host vehicle also starts following the target vehicle.
4. Stop-Hold Mode - After the configured time in Stop mode, ACC switches to stop-hold mode. The driver needs to issue a command (Resume button or accelerator pedal input) to switch back to Follow mode.
Whenever driver steers and system find a new target ie., front preceding vehicle, ACC takes time to pick the new target and react.
Whenever preceding vehicle cuts out and system finds a new target, ACC takes time to pick the new target and react.
•  If Set+/Set- switch is pressed when vehicle speed is below 5 kmph then ACC Set Speed will be initialized to 5 kmph.
•  When there is a front preceding vehicle, user can set desired speed by pressing SET+/- switch below 5 kmph as there is no minimum desired speed requirement
•  When front preceding vehicle and your vehicle are in stopped condition, apply brake and press SET+/SET-. Note that ACC will remain in standstill until the front preceding vehicle moves.

•  When the system is used for the first time , the time gap value is set to the maximum value (Level 4).
How To Adjust ACC SENSITIVITY
The sensitivity of vehicle acceleration/deceleration can be adjusted vehicle drive mode /driving style which can be selected from user settings menu as shown below.
In Centre Information Display (CID) Go to App Drawer / Vehicle Apps / Drive Assist / Speed control
Graphic
User Settings
1. ACC allows user to change the Acceleration & Response time from the settings
2. User can also link Acceleration & Response time to Vehicle drive modes - Range, Everyday & Race
ACC STOP & GO
ACC operation When front preceding vehicle is detected
When a front preceding vehicle is detected, the front preceding vehicle indicator along with time interval bars will be displayed in DID and VisionX
In slow-moving, stop-and-go traffic or when stopped at a traffic light, if the front preceding vehicle comes to stop, ACC also decelerates your vehicle to bring it to stop within the limitations of the system. Your vehicle movement will resume automatically if the front preceding vehicle starts within 3 seconds.
If it takes more than 3 seconds for the front preceding vehicle to begin moving again, ACC will be set to Standby and the stop-hold mode will activate. A pop-up alert message “Adaptive Cruise Control available Press Resume - Hold - Press Resume Switch or Pedal to Accelerate” will be displayed for driver to resume.
Graphic
ACC can be engaged by any of the following methods when in stop-hold mode if front preceding vehicle is present at distance more than 2 meters and less than 40 meters:
1. Press RESUME button
2. Slightly tap the accelerator pedal
3. Increase the speed above 5 kmph and press the RESUME button
When in ACC stopped condition, if driver is trying to unbuckle seat belt/open doors etc, then ACC may get disengaged and vehicle may crawl. Driver has to apply brake and control the vehicle.
ACC decelerates when there is too much of lateral acceleration due to maneuvering curves.
When following the front preceding vehicle, if the front preceding vehicle disappears due to a cut-out maneuver, a pop-up message will be displayed as “Object Disappeared Pay Attention”
Graphic
Please pay attention to the driving operation to maintain control of the vehicle as it accelerates to the set speed.
If ACC changes targets from a moving front preceding vehicle to a stationary front preceding vehicle at speeds above 30 kmph, the system may not react to the stationary vehicle and will accelerate to the previously set speed. The driver must actively apply the brake to slow/stop the vehicle.
ACC operation when Accelerator pedal is pressed
Even when ACC is engaged, driver can press the accelerator pedal if he wishes to accelerate the vehicle rapidly. When driver presses accelerator pedal, the vehicle speed exceeds the set speed.
•  ACC is overridden hence Set Speed and Distance is not followed
Graphic
•  ACC override pop-up will be displayed.
•  Set speed display will blink.
•  Set distance display will blink.
•  The front preceding vehicle indicator will turn off when the area ahead of the vehicle is open.
When the accelerator pedal is released, the vehicle will exit from the override mode and ACC operation will be resumed
Automatic cancellation of ACC
Under the following conditions ACC control will be cancelled automatically with an audio alert.
•  When the shift lever is not in D (Drive) position.
•  When the parking brake is applied
•  When Brake pedal is pressed.
•  When ESC is turned off
•  When the radar signal is temporarily interrupted.
•  When radar sensor area of the front bumper covered with dirt or is obstructed in case the radar sensor is affected by vibration or collision, please contact Mahindra authorised dealer or service provider.

•  When ACC is engaged, and your vehicle stopped, and after 3 seconds the front preceding vehicle moves and disappears and when the driver tries to resume ACC without the front preceding vehicle.
•  When Auto Park is engaged
•  When drive mode is changed to Terrain mode
•  When driver tries to resume ACC when front preceding vehicle (moving/stopped) is not in detection range.
•  When Trailer is connected
In above scenarios, the driver may be alerted by an audio alert and a message in the DID that ACC function is released/disengaged.
The driver is responsible for adapting to vehicle's speed, apply the brakes when necessary and keep a safe distance to the vehicle ahead.
ACC disengages whenever there is an ESP intervention. For example-: pot holes on a bumpy road
In some situations where ACC braking is not enough to follow the front preceding vehicle, an audio alert along with pop-up message will be given in the DID "Collision Possible Take Control".
Graphic
The driver has to apply brake to keep a safe distance.
In case of temporary abnormal conditions, ACC Status telltale will illuminate in Yellow color and ACC function will be disabled temporarily by showing up a pop-up
Graphic
Graphic
The following table lists possible causes for this message being displayed and suitable actions
Causes

Clean/Clear the bumper in front of the radar.
Rain or snow is interfering with the radar signals.
No action possible. Heavy precipitation may affect the function of the radar.
Do not use ACC during rain or snow.
Clogged water or snow from the surface of the road may interface with the radar signals.
No action possible. A very wet or snow-covered road surface may affect the function of the radar.
Do not use ACC during these situations.
The bumper area in front of the radar is clean but the message remains in the display.
Wait a short time. It may take several minutes for the radar to detect that it is no longer obstructed.
External modification of the radar area where metal part blocks the radar area for longer duration
Do not use ACC with such external modifications in front of Radar.
In case of permanent failure, ACC Status telltale will illuminate in red color also and ACC function will be disabled permanently by showing any of the below pop ups
Graphic
Graphic
In both cases, Visit Mahindra Authorised Dealer immediately.
In case of collision in front bumper, the radar position may change which results in degraded ACC performance. Visit nearest service center for radar calibration.
ACC System Limitations
•  Adaptive Control cannot cover all driving situations and traffic, weather and road conditions
•  Adaptive Control is not a collision  avoidance system. The driver shall always remain in active control of the vehicle and is always responsible for applying the brakes if the system does not detect front preceding vehicle
•  ACC may not assist in close cut-in scenarios
•  Adaptive Control may not react to people, cyclists or animals. It also may not react to slow moving, parked or approaching vehicles, or stationary objects
•  In case of a hit in bumper / full or partial blockage to RADAR, turn off ACC and get the vehicle serviced as early as possible at a Mahindra authorised service center
•  ACC will be disabled when trailer is connected to the rear of the vehicle
•  ACC does not slow down for crossing vehicles
When using a trailer, make sure the trailer electrical connector is connected to the vehicle.
Avoid using ACC under the following conditions
•  On roads where the traffic is heavy or there are sharp curves
•  On slippery road surfaces
•  During bad weather (rain, fog, snow, etc.) and poor visibility.
•  When rain drops, snow or dirt stick on to the bumper around the sensor
•  On steep downhill roads (the vehicle may go beyond the set speed and in trying to maintain set speed, may result in overheating the brakes)
•  On repeated uphill and downhill roads
•  When traffic conditions make it difficult to keep a proper distance between vehicles because of frequent acceleration or deceleration
•  Interference by other radar sources installed in nearby protected areas like military, airports etc.
•  Do not use Adaptive Control in demanding driving conditions, in slippery conditions, when there is a great deal of water or slush on the road, during heavy rain or snow, in poor visibility, on winding roads or on highway on or off ramps.
•  Do not rely on ACC for slowing down to stationary or slow-moving vehicles while approaching toll gate.

ACC Limitation Scenarios
ACC may not function in below scenarios, driver shall take active control of the vehicle without relying on ACC..
•  Close cut-in situation
Graphic
Sudden entry of other road vehicle in to host vehicle's lane may not be detected.
•  Situation of stopped vehicles
Graphic
Sudden vicinity of stationary object in host vehicle's lane may not be detected.
Graphic
When the preceding vehicle that follows is cutting out, it detects the preceding vehicle (Vehicle-B) as a new preceding vehicle because of an irregular radar reflection occurred in particular.
As Vehicle-B stops, the host vehicle stops on Vehicle-B.
At this time, since there is no collision with Vehicle-A, the driver may misunderstand that it is under normal control of Vehicle-A.
When Vehicle-B starts, host vehicle may start without considering the new stationary Vehicle-A because of irregular radar reflection.
•  Curve entry / exit situation
Graphic
Graphic
In the curve entry / exit situation, based on the curvature of road on which the host vehicle is moving differs from the curvature of the predicted road, so the adjacent lane can be selected as the control target and the preceding vehicle in the host lane may be missed
•  Curves with larger curvature
Graphic
If the radius of curvature is very small, an inadequate or excessive acceleration/ deceleration may occur due to the limitation
•  Poor visibility: In case of poor visibility, Driver must take the control of vehicle
Graphic
•  When a preceding vehicle enters an intersection
Graphic
In an road intersection, target preceding vehicle may be lost and ACC may not function as intended. Driver must take the control of vehicle.
•  When the road gradient changes
Graphic
In case of road gradient variation, preceding target vehicle may be lost and ACC may not function as intended. Driver must take the control of vehicle.
•  Sensor blockage
Graphic
Any blockage to sensors, detection will degrade and Drive Assist features may not function as intended
•  Long cargo loading vehicle
Graphic
Graphic
If the height of the preceding target vehicle is very high, the sensor may not detect it and Drive Assist functionality may vary. Driver should take control of vehicle.
•  Inability to recognize pedestrians
Graphic
In case of Stop & Go situation, the host vehicle may not detect pedestrian. Driver should take control of vehicle.
•  Excessive braking of the preceding vehicle
Graphic
ACC might not slow down your vehicle sufficiently if target starts to decelerate too fast as ACC only has only 30% of total brake force available in vehicle
If the preceding vehicle brakes beyond the ACC maximum deceleration limit, AEBS may engage. However, driver shall be alert and take control vehicle.
•  Detection performance deterioration due to road side structures
Graphic
If the front radar is exposed to the surrounding road structures (steel laminates, tunnels, construction sections, etc.) that may affect the detection performance, the front preceding vehicle may not be detected normally.
Any metal road structures / bridges, tunnels or toll plazas may vary the system functionality, Driver shall be alert and take control of the vehicle.
•  False deceleration or no deceleration
If radar misaligned vertically or horizontally, ACC may produce frequent false deceleration or no deceleration for front preceding vehicle. Visit nearest service center for radar alignment
•  ACC may not slowdown the vehicle for pot-holes/Speed breakers
Graphic
Graphic
•  ACC may not slow down for cyclists
Graphic
•  ACC may not slow down sufficiently for road curves
Graphic
•  ACC may not slow down for barriers/blockades
Graphic
•  ACC does not slowdown for oncoming/reversing front vehicles
Graphic
•  ACC does not slow down for crossing or merging vehicles at angles more than 30 degree
Graphic
Graphic
ACC might not slow down your vehicle sufficiently if target starts to decelerate too fast as ACC has only 30% of total brakeforce available in vehicle
•  ACC may not sufficiently slowdown for animals
Graphic
•  Adaptive Control may not react to special/modified vehicles such as Harvester, Tractor Trailor, Motorized Ice Cream Cart, construction vehicle, animals etc.
•  ACC may not reliably follow bicycle
Graphic
•  ACC may not completely slow down for stationary vehicle
Graphic
•  If a very slow-moving target cutting in between your vehicle and stationary target then there is a chance that ACC system does not pick-up the slow moving target since ACC is not able to discriminate between slow moving target and stationary target.
•  If a target in front takes a sharp turn and goes out of Field of view, then your vehicle can start to accelerate fast.
•  ACC might not pick-up target at sharp curve
Graphic
•  ACC might not detect a target vehicle and slow down when driving along a sharp curve.
•  ACC may not completely slow down for stationary vehicle while following a two wheeler
Graphic
•  When your vehicle follows two wheeler and two wheeler overtakes stationary target ahead, your vehicle may not slow down due to stationary target detection limitation.
•  Do not use ACC with an offset to the target vehicle.
Graphic
•  Do not use ACC to follow motorbikes where there is no space for your vehicle to navigate.
Graphic
•  Do not use ACC while there are two wheelers overtaking your vehicle while in Stop & Go mode

–  TSR function may not detect rectangular sign boards
8.4.2 Speed Limit Assist (SLA)
SLA allows the user to adjust the ACC set speed based on the speed indicated by traffic signs.
If SLA is active and there is a difference between the set speed and the speed sign, an up or down arrow will be displayed in DID.
Graphic
When the up arrow is displayed, the user can press the SET + button, and when the down arrow is displayed SET – button, the user can press the SET - button to adjust the ACC set speed.
When the opposite button is pressed, ACC will only increase or decrease the SET speed by 1 Kmph
How to Turn ON/OFF SLA System:
SLA can work when Adaptive Control is ON, Speed limit assist is set to Warning or Assist mode and Traffic Sign Recognition is enabled under Drive assist settings. To enable SLA, go to Vehicle apps/ Driver Assist /Speed Limit / Speed Limit. SLA can work in two modes :
Graphic
Warning Mode :
If the vehicle's actual speed exceeds the detected speed limit sign, a visual warning is triggered by blinking ACC set speed display in the DID and VisionX to select this mode.
Assist Mode :
If the vehicle's actual speed is above or below the set tolerance based on speed limit sign, ACC can adjust the set speed once driver confirms by pressing Set +/Set - buttons.
Driver can set a speed limit tolerance between -10 kmph and +10 kmph to adjust the vehicle's speed relative to the speed limit sign. For example, if TSR displays 40 kmph and the tolerance is set to -10, then 30 kmph will be set as ACC Set speed. For compliance with speed limits, it is recommended to use a tolerance setting of 0, -5, or -10 kmph.
To adjust the tolerance settings, Go to Vehicle apps>> Driver Assist > Speed Limit > Speed Limit tolerance
SLA works only if ACC has a set speed and there is no target in front. If there is target in front it will follow the target.
SLA works for speed limit signs above 30 kmph
SLA system is limited to the detection capabilities of Camera sensor. The driver is always responsible for operating the vehicle as per the road regulations and shall remain in active control of the vehicle. SLA can detect standard speed limit signs that are within the camera sensor field of view.
8.5 Lane Assist
8.5.1 Lane Centering Function (LCF)
Lane centering function is intended to help the driver to keep the vehicle in center of a traffic lane's side marker lines by providing the required steering assist.
LCF can be turned ON by pressing the lateral control button on the right-hand side of the steering wheel switch bank.
Graphic
Graphic
When LCF is ON, the LCF telltale will be displayed in the DID.
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions for proper use of system could result in serious injury or death.
Lane centering function is not a self-driving system. Within the limits of its capabilities, as described in this manual, it helps the driver with certain driving activities.
Lane centering function is not a replacement for proper driving procedures and is not designed to correct careless, inattentive driver.
Always keep your hands on the steering wheel so you can be ready to steer at any time. The driver is always responsible for staying in a lane and for assessing traffic situations.
Lane centering function must only be used where there are clearly visible traffic lane side marker lines on both sides of the current traffic lane. In other circumstances there is an increased risk of collision with surrounding obstacles that are not detected by the system
System Operation
•  Lane Centering can operate at the host vehicle’s speed from 0 kmph to 180 kmph.
•  Lane centering can be enabled only if driver wears seat belt and all doors are closed.
•  If speed/road/vehicle dynamic conditions are not satisfied, Lane centering function will be in STANDBY mode and Lane centering function indicator light will illuminate in white.
Graphic
Graphic
•  If both lane markers are detected and all the road and vehicle related activation conditions are satisfied, system performs lane centering and indicator light will illuminate in green.
Graphic
Graphic
• 
Graphic
When system performs lane centering, steering wheel indicator will illuminate in green.
If system was assisting and changing to Standby due to any reasons, then Lane Centering Function will stop providing assist and indicator light will blink in green for few seconds.
Green lane marking will appear in drive assist screen of the DID, when Lane centering function is in active state.
If lane centering was active and road is straight, Lane centering function may be provided for some more time even though lane markings are not available.
Lane centering will not work if turn indicators or hazard switch is activated
Lane centering may not work on too narrow or very wide roads.
Lane centering function may not keep the vehicle centered in the lane in highly curved roads and in medium curved roads at higher speeds.
Sometimes at roads where there is a merge/split or when the vehicle approaches a lane marked road or leaves a lane marked road, Lane centering function may pull the vehicle to either of the sides. The driver is always expected to be available to take over control in such extreme situations.
Hands-off Warning for Lane Centering Function
When driver does not hold the steering wheel with adequate torque, Lane Centering Function triggers hands off warning and it is continued until the driver holds back the steering wheel.
The first-stage warning is triggered a few seconds after hands-off is detected.
Graphic
The second-stage warning, accompanied by an audio alert, will be activated if the driver continues not to hold the steering wheel after the first-stage warning.
Graphic
The third-stage warning, accompanied by an audio alert, is activated if the driver continues to neglect holding the steering wheel after the second-stage warning.
Graphic
•  Do not wait for the system to provide Visual/audio alerts to hold the steering wheel. The driver is always responsible for having control of the vehicle.
•  In some rare situations when the system is unable to do proper judgement, system may generate visual / audio alerts even when the driver holds the steering wheel as a precautionary measure.
The driver is always responsible for steering the vehicle and maintaining a suitable speed and distance to the vehicle ahead and must intervene, if necessary, even if Lane centering function is being used.
The system will provide only a mild steering torque within the operating limits. This torque may not be sufficient during sharper curves. The system may stop providing assist if it determines the torque provided is not sufficient to pull back to the lane. The driver is always responsible for steering the vehicle and bringing the vehicle back to lane
Graphic
Lane centering function may not detect obstacles at the side of the vehicle and may try to pull back the vehicle laterally to the center of lane even though another vehicle may be occupying the lane at the side. This could lead to a possible collision. A driver should always be in control of the steering wheel and should provide additional torque to override Lane centering function in such situations.
Graphic
There could be vertical structures like curbs, medians etc. at the end of lane marking and assist provided by Lane Centering Function may not be sufficient to pull back the vehicle before the vehicle leaves the lane. Users must take control of steering always and provide necessary steering to avoid lane deviations or crashes.
Lane centering function Automatic Cancellation
Under the following conditions LCF will get automatically cancelled
•  The maximum speed that LCF supports is exceeded
•  When driver shifts out of Drive gear
•  An Automatic Emergency Braking event occurs

8.5.2 Smart Pilot Assist System
Smart Pilot Assist system is intended to help the driver to keep the vehicle in center of a traffic lane's side marker lines by providing steering assist as well as maintaining a set time gap with front vehicle.
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions for proper use of system could result in serious injury or death.
•  Smart Pilot Assist System is not a self-driving system. Within the limits of its capabilities, as described in this manual, it helps the driver with certain driving activities.
•  Smart Pilot Assist system is not a replacement for proper driving procedures and is not designed to correct careless, inattentive of driver.
•  Always observe posted speed limits and do not set the speed over them.
•  Driver must always stay vigilant to take control of the vehicle throughout the drive
•  Always keep your hands on the steering wheel so you can be ready to steer at any time and remain in active control of the vehicle. The driver is always responsible for staying in a lane and for assessing traffic situations.
•  Smart Pilot Assist must only be used where there are clearly visible traffic lane side marker lines on both sides of the current traffic lane. In other circumstances there is an increased risk of collision with surrounding obstacles that are not detected by the system.
How to activate Smart Pilot Assist
Smart Pilot Assist will activate when Adaptive Control & Lane Centering Function are turned ON individually by the driver.
System Operation
Smart Pilot Assist system is combination of Adaptive Control and Lane Centering.
Graphic
If speed/road/vehicle dynamic conditions are not satisfied, Smart Pilot Assist will be in STANDBY mode and Smart Pilot Assist telltale will illuminate in white.
Graphic
If both lanes are detected and all the road and vehicle related activation conditions are satisfied, system performs lane centering and Smart Pilot Assist telltale will illuminate in green.
When Smart Pilot Assist is activated, it will also provide gentle steering corrections to offset and move away from close vehicles in the adjacent lanes
Graphic
The vehicle will only offset on straight roads when both the lane markings are clear, and vehicle speed is greater than 40 kmph.
Graphic
When Smart Pilot system provide steering assist, steering wheel telltale will illuminate in green in the driver information display.
If system was assisting and transiting to Standby due to any reasons, then Smart Pilot Assist will stop providing assist and indicator light will blink for few seconds
If a slower moving vehicle is detected ahead during smart pilot, the system will reduce the vehicle speed so that your vehicle follows the vehicle in front as per the set time gap.
Always use a time interval that is suitable in current traffic conditions. A short time interval gives the driver limited reaction time if an unexpected situation occurs in traffic. System will be deactivated/off when ACC system or Lane Centering is turned off or when third stage hands-off warning displays.
When ACC is disengaged by pressing brake pedal, Smart Pilot Assist also gets into standby.
If lane centering was active and road is straight, Smart Pilot Assist may be provided for some more time even though lane markings are not available.
Hands-off Detection & Warning : When driver does not hold the steering wheel with adequate force, Smart Pilot Assist triggers hands off warning and it is continued until the driver holds back the steering wheel.
First stage warning will be provided immediately once hands off is detected
Graphic
Second stage warning with audio alert will be provided if driver is not holding the steering wheel even after the first stage warning.
Graphic
Third stage warning with audio alert will be provided when driver does not hold the steering wheel even after second stage warning. Here after Lane Centering will go to Standby.
Graphic
The driver is always responsible for steering the vehicle and maintaining a suitable speed and distance to the vehicle ahead and must intervene if necessary, even if Smart Pilot Assist is being used.
The ADAS functionality may be reduced or impaired in adverse weather conditions such as heavy rain or fog). Detection capabilities may also be affected by dirty, obstructed, or damaged sensors or cameras.
Objects outside the camera or sensor field of view, such as small obstacles, pedestrians, or fast-moving vehicles, may not always be detected by the ADAS system.
Sudden road condition changes (construction zones, potholes, uneven surfaces) may not be accurately recognized by the system, requiring driver intervention
Due to the limitations of the camera and radar sensor, the system may apply the brakes in your vehicle suddenly or not at all.
System will provide only a mild steering torque within the operating limits. This torque may not be sufficient during sharper curves. System may stop providing assist if it determines the torque provided is not sufficient to pull back to the lane. Driver is always responsible to steer the vehicle and bring vehicle back to lane.
•  Do not wait for system to provide Visual /audio alerts to hold the steering wheel. Driver is always responsible to have control of the vehicle.
•  In some rare situations when system is unable to do proper judgement, system may generate visual / audio alerts even when the driver holds the steering wheel as a precautionary measure.
Graphic
Smart Pilot Assist regulates your vehicle's speed and the brakes. Please be aware that there may be a faint sound from the brakes when the system is using them.
Smart Pilot Assist may not detect obstacles at the side of the vehicle and may try to pull back the vehicle laterally to the center of lane even though another vehicle may be occupying the lane at the side. This could lead to a possible collision. Driver should always be in control of the steering wheel and shall provide additional torque to override Smart Pilot Assist in such situations.
Graphic
There could be vertical structures like curbs, medians etc. at the end of lane marking and assist provided by Smart Pilot Assist system may not be sufficient to pull back the vehicle before the vehicle leaves the lane. User has to take control of steering always and provide necessary steering to avoid lane deviations or crash.

•  The Lane Keep Assist torque will be adjusted according to the driver applied torque to reduce discomfort and to provide precedence to driver control.
•  If the driver intentionally tries to cross the lane boundary by applying more torque, then assist will be cancelled. In such conditions warning alone will be provided once the vehicle crosses the lane boundary.
•  If the driver is constantly holding the steering wheel very lightly while the LKA intervention is being provided, system may assume that the driver is not attentive enough and will provide visual alert to the driver as in image below:
• 
Graphic
If the driver continues to hold the steering wheel lightly for a next intervention occurring within 3 minutes, then in addition to the visual alert, audio alert will also be provided until the system makes sure that driver is in full control.
•  If lane marking is suddenly not available or if lane widens suddenly , then for a short duration virtual lanes may get created and assist/warning may be provided once the vehicle approaches/crosses the virtual lane boundary .
•  The preference for steering control and alerts will be given to Smart Pilot Assist over Lane Keep Assist if Smart Pilot Assist is equipped and enabled by driver. Please go through Smart Pilot chapter for more details.
•  Do not wait for system to provide Visual /audio alerts to hold the steering wheel. Driver is always responsible to have control of the vehicle.
•  In some rare situations when system is unable to do proper judgement, system may generate visual / audio alerts even when the driver holds the steering wheel as a precautionary measure.
•  System will provide only a mild steering torque within the operating limits. This torque may not be sufficient during sharper curves. System may stop providing assist if it determines the torque provided is not sufficient to pull back to the lane. Driver is always responsible to steer the vehicle and bring vehicle back to lane.
Graphic
LKA/LDW will not be provided for parked vehicles, barricades and barrels on the side of road.
Graphic
If system malfunctions in Warning mode, LDW indicator light will illuminate in Amber color. Please refer Camera Maintenance and Trouble shooting section for rectification method.

LKA may not detect obstacles at the side of the vehicle and may try to pull back the vehicle laterally to the center of lane even though another vehicle may be occupying the lane at the side. This could lead to a possible collision. Driver should always be in control of the steering wheel and shall provide additional torque to override LKA in such situations.
Graphic
There could be vertical structures like curbs, medians etc. at the end of lane marking and assist provided by LKA system may not be sufficient to pull back the vehicle before the vehicle leaves the lane. User must take control of steering always and provide necessary steering to avoid lane deviations or crash.
Lane Keep Assist Sensitivity
Lane Keeping Assist (LKA) Sensitivity refers to the intensity of lane assist torque experienced by the driver in the event of lane departure.
LKA sensitivity can be adjusted via App Drawer / Vehicle Apps / Drive Assist / Assistants / Lane Assist /Lane Keeping Assist sensitivity
Graphic
The LKA options for the levels of sensitivity include the following:
Low Sensitivity:
Minimal assist torque is provided by the system when there is a lane departure, where driver can easily override the system with minimal effort, allowing greater control flexibility. This is ideal for drivers who prefer subtle guidance and minimal intervention.
Medium Sensitivity:
Balanced level of assist torque is provided by the system when there is a lane departure, where driver can override the system with moderate effort. This is ideal for drivers who prefer to have a balance between system provided assist and manual control.
High Sensitivity:
Higher level of assist torque is provided by the system when there is a lane departure, where driver override also happens with slightly higher effort.
Lane Keep Assist System Limitations
LKA and LDW System is intended to assist the driver and cannot function as intended in all kinds of driving, weather, traffic and road conditions as mentioned below.

8.5.5 Highway Assist System (HWA) (If equipped)
Highway Assist (HWA) enables your vehicle to assist in changing lanes upon activation of the turn indicators by the driver when Smart Pilot Assist feature is in operation
This feature is intended for use on highways with a physical divider or median separating ongoing and oncoming traffic.
The Highway Assist function may attempt to change lanes under certain conditions, even if there is a potential risk of collision. The driver must remain alert and always maintain full control of the vehicle at all times during the drive.
•  The system may not detect an oncoming vehicle/oncoming lane vehicle during a lane change and may proceed with the lane change. Therefore, driver should be vigilant to take over steering control through out the drive
•  After moving to the next lane, if lane markings of the adjacent lane are obscured by mud or debris, system will not perform lane centering.
•  The system may not detect a stopped or slow-moving vehicle in the adjacent lane while initiating the lane change and ACC may not be able to completely slow down for the stopped/slow moving vehicle. Driver should be always available to take control in such situations.
Steps to enable Highway Assist System
In Centre Information Display (CID) Go to App Drawer / Vehicle Apps /Drive Assist / Assistants / Highway Assist
Graphic
System Operation
Highway Assist Function gets activated when the following conditions are satisfied.
•  The vehicle speed shall be between 40 kmph and 150 kmph
•  Both ACC and Lane Centering Function shall be operating (Smart Pilot Assist)
•  The Vehicle shall be driven on a road with at least two driving lanes with dashed lane marking in the center.
If the above-mentioned conditions are satisfied, the Highway Assist becomes ready to provide lane change assistance, and the Highway Assist indicator illuminates in green .
Graphic
In case of not meeting any of the above-mentioned conditions, Highway Assist function remains stand-by, and the Highway Assist indicator illuminates in white representing that the system will not provide lane change assistance.
Graphic
The driver can initiate lane change by either one touch or full latch of turn indicator
Driver initiated Lane Change
If the driver initiates a left lane change by activating the left turn indicator, then system performs the left lane change and is indicated by left arrow blinking in green in DID and VisionX.
Graphic
If the driver initiates a right lane change by activating the right turn indicator, then the system performs the right lane change and is indicated by right arrow blinking in green in DID and VisionX.
Graphic
Graphic
If the system detects any unfavorable road conditions when the lane change is in progress, system cancels the process and notifies the driver by blinking the corresponding arrow (left or right) of lane widget in amber color in DID and VisionX.
If the system detects any unfavorable road conditions once the lane change is completed, lane centering will get deactivated. Driver needs to pay attention and take control of the vehicle in such situations.
System recommended Lane Change
Graphic
When the vehicle is in ACC Follow mode and actual speed is less than the ACC set speed, HWA system will automatically recommend for a lane change by prompting the driver with a pop-up & indicator for initiating the lane change in the recommended direction. Such recommendation is limited to maximum twice for a particular front vehicle.
Graphic
Graphic
Even though system recommends for a lane change, driver should actively monitor the traffic and road conditions before activating the turn indicator.
If lane change which is in progress need to be cancelled, activate the turn indicator in opposite direction through one touch or full latch
If the driver wants to perform lane change (either based on the system’s recommendation or on his own will), the corresponding turn indicator signal must be activated to make the system perform lane change automatically.
When the driver initiates the lane change by activating the turn indicator, a pop-up is displayed to alert the driver to focus on the surroundings and hold the steering wheel for safety.
Graphic
Once the system completes the lane change successfully, an alert pop-up is shown in DID as below.
Graphic
In addition to activating the turn indicator, the driver is expected to give a slight steering nudge as second confirmation for lane change in the desired direction.
Highway Assist cannot detect intersections, merges, round about, cross walk, tollgate etc and lane change recommendations may be provided without taking into consideration of above factors. Driver shall take full responsibility to decide whether to proceed or not with the lane change depending on the road situations.
If the Lane change is cancelled due to any of the following unfavorable conditions, the corresponding pop-up is shown.
1. When the driver’s hands-on the steering wheel is not detected by the system
Graphic
2. When road condition is unfavorable due to unavailability of dashed lane marking
Graphic
3. When system detects the risk for collision with the vehicles/bicyclists/pedestrian/animals in the adjacent lane
Graphic
4. When the driver overrides the steering
Graphic
5. If the driver changed turn indicator to the opposite direction or some unfavorable conditions occurred for lane change to get completed.
Graphic
The driver must be always ready to take over steering control in case lane change gets cancelled in between.

Graphic
The Driver Drowsiness Detection system advises the driver to take a break from continuous long duration driving when driver fatigue can be detected based on the driver's steering behavior.
The system evaluates the steering behavior at speeds of 60 - 200 km/h.
Conditions under which a break from driving is detected by the system are as follows.
•  The vehicle is stopped and the ignition switched off.
•  The vehicle is stopped, the seat belt removed, and the driver's door opened.
•  The vehicle is stopped for more than 15 minutes.
If none of these conditions are met or if the driving style is not changed, the system recommends a driving break again after 15 minutes.
The Drowsiness alert should be enabled in the driver assistance screen.
Pause Recommendation
This alert comes in the display of DID when the system detects the driver is quite sleepy or very sleepy, along with audible signal.
•  When the vehicle is driven continuously for more than 2 hours and if the system detects driver as “Quite Sleepy”, an alert message along with audio signal appears in the DID. Cluster will display the alert message till the user presses the “OK” button from steering wheel switch.
•  After pressing the OK button, if break is not detected by the system for next 15 minutes, alert message will repeat again. If the drowsiness is continuously sensed and if the system detects driver as “Very Sleepy”, next level alert message & audio signal will be triggered along with steering wheel haptic feedback.
•  The driving ability is always the driver's responsibility. Never drive if you feel tired.
•  The system may not detect all cases where a break is needed.
•  Therefore, take regular, sufficient breaks during long trips.
•  There will be no system warning during the so-called micro-sleep.
•  In some situations, the system can evaluate the steering behavior incorrectly and therefore falsely display a break recommendation.
•  The system is designed primarily for use on highways.

To ensure the proper functioning of the ultrasonic sensors, always keep them clean and free from ice formation, dust, water or any other foreign objects.
Do not press or shock the sensors by hitting or using a high-pressure water gun while washing as the sensors might be damaged.
Magnetic devices present in the detection range could vastly affect the sensor performance and the distance displayed may not be accurat.
•  PAS is an assistance system. Under no circumstances shall Mahindra or its directors, officers and key managerial persons accept any responsibility or be held liable for any direct or indirect, incidental or consequential damage caused by this system.
•  Any accessory addition on bumper will affect the performance of system.
•  System will not sense pot holes, trenches or drainages which are below the ground level.
•  Repainting of the sensor will affect the performance of the system.
Activation & De-activation of PAS
The Vehicle should be in IGN ON state to activate the Parking Assistance System.
When the obstacles come in the sensing range, the system starts giving the indication based on the distance and direction of the obstacles as defined in the detecting zones. The closer the obstacle(s), the respective display bars get highlighted and beeps alert. Display bars in the respective direction will glow according to obstacle in its path.
Frequency of the beep will increase if obstacle detected by sensor is closer (crossing each display bar) and the sound will be continuous if any of the obstacles is near the vehicle.
If the issue persists, visit an authorised dealer or service provider for inspection
Reverse Gear
RPAS & FPAS will be activated i.e. all 12 sensors will be active.
Graphic
RPAS will get deactivated when reverse gear is disengaged or vehicle speed is more than 10 kmph.
Drive or Neutral Gear
FPAS will be activated, ie., Front 6 sensors and rear side sensors will be active.
Graphic
FPAS chimes can be enabled or disabled with the switch on the driver side switch bank.
Graphic
FPAS will get deactivated when vehicle speed is more than 10 kmph or Park gear is engaged or vehicle is in standstill condition.
The FPAS/RPAS are supplementary assistance features designed to support the driver. However, these systems do not replace the driver's vigilance or responsibility. Driver must always remain attentive and actively check the vehicle's surroundings to ensure safety. Mahindra will not be held responsible or liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages resulting from the use of these systems under any circumstances.
10.2.1 Pay Attention
1. Obstacle in the blind zone cannot be sensed by the system. Applicable for all sensors.
Graphic
2. Please check the condition of the obstacle behind and in front of your vehicle before moving. In some cases, the PAS information updated in DID be not as same as reality due to the installed sensor level, obstacle shape and reflection condition.
Graphic
3. Point B will be detected sooner or later, but A will not be detected at all. Applicable for all sensors.
Graphic
4. Not all obstacles are detected from 120 cm. For instance, a person is detected from 75 cm because of the weak reflection or absorption of the waves reflected from the clothes.
Graphic
5. The distance indication may vary with respective highlighted bars in different colors due to different size of the obstacles at different positions.
Graphic
6. Though the obstacle is in the sensing zone, obstacle may not be detected since the ultrasonic waves are not reflected back to the sensor.
Graphic
7. The obstacle of a conical shape may not be detected, since the ultrasonic waves get reflected away.
Graphic
10.2.2 Limitations of PAS
•  System may not sense obstacles like wire mesh, handrail, small objects which are below the bumper level.
•  System may not sense obstacles with cotton or spongy surface, which will absorb ultrasonic waves emitted by sensors.
•  System performance is dependent on the reflection angle of the obstacle. Objects that fall under the category of soft or porous materials like foam, fabric, and rubber, liquids which can absorb or deflect sound waves, results in poor detection of the object. Sometimes system might not detect the object which fall in this category.
•  System may not detect any obstacle in hanging state, both static and dynamic.
•  System may give false alert without obstacles while parking/reversing the vehicle on grasslands, gravels, speed breakers, or any bumpy roads considering it to be an obstacle.
•  System may alert you by sensing the ground when the bumper is not fitted in its intended position or when the vehicle is overloaded.
•  System may give false signal while the vehicle moves from plain ground to a slope terrain or vice versa.
•  System may give false signal an alarm during heavy rain, snow and heavy wind conditions.
•  The shape of the obstacle may prevent a sensor from detecting it. Some obstacles for example as follows:
–  Sharply-angled objects
–  Curved kerb
–  Low obstacles
–  Obstacles with upper sections projecting outwards in the direction of the vehicle
•  If any object/obstacle has an irregular shape/size, etc and depending upon other environmental factors, the detection distance may vary.
•  Obstacles will not be detected if they are too close to the sensor(s).
•  Thin posts or objects lower than the sensor may not be detected when approached, even if they have been detected once.
•  Because of other ultrasonic sources, sensor may give false alarm for e.g., sweeping machines, high pressure steam cleaners or neon lights, etc.
•  System may cause sensor(s) to give false alarms due to high-pitched vehicle horns, motorcycle engines, air brakes of large vehicles, or other loud noise producing ultrasonic waves within the vicinity of the vehicle.
The conditions listed above do not represent every possible scenario that may interfere with PAS. Additional factors may prevent it from operating as intended. Always remain vigilant and keep your attention on the road so you can anticipate and respond quickly to potential hazards.
10.3 Parking Assistance System (PAS) – RPAS & FPAS (If equipped)

2 bars indicate how close the obstacle is from the vehicle front bumper, with all bars highlighted being very close and 2nd bar alone indicate being distant.
10.3.2 Operation of PAS
Activation & De-activation of PAS
•  The Vehicle should be in Ignition ON state to activate the Parking assistance system
•  RPAS will be activated automatically when reverse gear engaged and Park Brake is disengaged
Graphic
•  RPAS will get deactivated when reverse gear is disengaged or Park brake is engaged
•  FPAS will be activated automatically in D mode and R mode when Park brake is disengaged and Vehicle speed is between 1 to 8 kmph or vehicle is standstill.
•  FPAS will get deactivated when vehicle speed is more than 8 kmph or Park brake is engaged reverse gear is disengaged.
•  When the obstacles come in the sensing range, the system starts giving the indication based on the distance and direction of the obstacles as defined in the detecting zones. The closer the obstacles, more display bars illuminated & beeps alerts
Graphic
Graphic
•  Display bars in the respective direction will glow according to obstacles in its path.
Graphic
The Beep sound can be heard from the front speaker. Frequency of the beep would increase if obstacle detected by sensor is closer (crossing each display bar) and the sound will be continuous if any of the obstacle is near the vehicle.
Graphic
FPAS warning sound can be disabled using PAS Switch, available on driver side switch bank. PAS switch LED will not glow when FPAS sound is in active state and will be in ON state when PAS sound deactivated.
10.3.3 Pay Attention
1. If bars in any one of the sides are displayed with ‘?’ marks and “Park Assist Fail” is displayed on Center Information Display (CID), contact an Authorised Mahindra Dealer.
Graphic
2. If all bars are displayed with ‘?’ marks and “Park Assist Fail” is displayed on Driver Information Display/Center Information Display (DID/CID), contact an Authorised Mahindra Dealer.
Graphic
Graphic
3. Obstacle in the blind zone cannot be sensed by the system. Applicable for all sensors.
Graphic
4. Please check the condition of the obstacle behind and in front of your vehicle before moving. In some cases, the display may be not as same as reality due to the installed sensor level, obstacle shape and reflection condition.
Graphic
5. Point B will be detected sooner or later, but A may not be detected at all. Applicable for all sensors.
Graphic
6. Not all obstacles are detected from 120 cm. For instance, a person is detected from 75 cm because of the weak reflection or absorption of the waves of the clothes.
Graphic
7. The distance indication may move up and down due to different sizes of the obstacle at different positions.
Graphic
8. Though the obstacle is in the sensing zone, obstacle may not be detected since the ultrasonic waves are not reflected back to the sensor.
Graphic
9. The obstacle of a conical shape may not be detected, since the ultrasonic waves get reflected away
Graphic
10.3.4 Limitations of PAS
•  System may not sense obstacles like wire mesh, handrail, small objects which are below the bumper level
•  System may not sense obstacles with cotton or spongy surface, which will absorb ultrasonic waves emitted by PAS
•  System performance is dependent on the reflection angle of the obstacle
•  System may give false alert without obstacles while parking/reversing the vehicle on grasslands, gravels and bumpy roads considering it to be an obstacle
•  System may alert you by sensing the ground when the bumper is not fitted in its intended position or when the vehicle is overloaded
•  System may give false signal while the vehicle moves from plain ground to a slope terrain and vice versa
•  System may give false signal by sensing the ground when the bumper is tilted more from the normal position or when the vehicle is heavily overloaded
•  System may give false signal an alarm during heavy rain, snow and heavy wind conditions
•  The shape of the obstacle may prevent a sensor from detecting it. Some obstacles for example as follows:
–  Sharply-angled objects
–  Tall or curved curb
–  Low obstacles (with height of 40 cm above ground level)
–  Tall obstacles with upper sections projecting outwards in the direction of the vehicle
•  Depending upon the shape of the obstacle and other environmental factors, the detection distance may shorten or detection may be impossible
•  Obstacles may not be detected if they are too close to the sensor
•  Thin posts or objects lower than the sensor may not be detected when approached, even if they have been detected once
•  Because of other ultrasonic sources, sensor may give false alarm for e.g., sweeping machines, high pressure steam cleaners and neon lights
•  Due to vehicle horns, motorcycle engines, air brakes of large vehicles, or other loud noises producing ultrasonic waves, the vicinity of the vehicle is noisy. It may cause sensor to give false alarm
10.3.5 Reverse Parking Assistance System (RPAS) (If equipped)
Reverse parking assistance system is provided to aid the driver while parking the vehicle in reverse at a speed of less than 8 kmph. While reversing, RPAS will detect the obstacles at the rear side of the vehicle within the sensing zone, which cannot be viewed through the internal rear-view mirror and the outside rear view mirrors. The RPAS will then alert the driver by a beep sound and display about the location of the detected obstacle. The alert sound level will vary proportional to the distance. Smaller the distance shorter the interval between the beeps.
Activation & de-activation of RPAS
•  The Vehicle should be in IGN ON state to activate the Parking assistance system
•  RPAS will be activated automatically when reverse gear is engaged and Park Brake is disengaged
•  RPAS will be deactivated when reverse gear is disengaged or Park brake is engaged.
•  When the obstacles come in the sensing range, the system starts giving the indication based on the distance and direction of the obstacles as defined in the detecting zones. The closer the obstacles, more display bars illuminated & beeps alerts.
RPAS display on Driver Information Display / Center Information Display (DID/CID) screen gives the following information:
•  Left zone indicates obstacle on left side
•  Right zone indicates obstacle on right side
•  If obstacle is in center then right and left both zone will get highlight
3 bars indicate how close the obstacle is from the vehicle rear bumper, with all bars highlighted being very close and bar 3rd bar alone being distant.
10.3.5.1 Operation of RPAS
1. Start the vehicle.
2. Change the gear from neutral to reverse and disengage the Park brake for RPAS information on Driver Information Display / Center Information Display (DID/CID) screen.
Graphic
The RPAS will be displayed in the Driver Information Display / Center Information Display (DID/CID) screen during obstacle detection.
3. Start moving the vehicle in reverse direction
4. Display bars in the respective direction will glow according to obstacles in its path.
5. The Beep sound can be heard from the driver side speaker. Frequency of the beep will increase if obstacle comes closer (crossing each display bar) and the sound will be continuous if any of the obstacle is less than 50 cm.
Pay Attention: If Driver Information Display / Center Information Display (DID/CID) gives 3 sec continuous beep alert tone whenever reverse gear engaged, Contact an Authorised Mahindra Dealer.

10.5.11 System Limitations
•  360° camera is subject to certain system limitation and may be unavailable or only partially available in the following situations:
- During bad weather (rain, fog, snow, etc.)
- At night or in very dark places.
- Display may flicker, if the area around cameras is lit by LED or any fluorescent lighting.
- If there is a sudden change in temperature, from cold to hot.
- If your vehicle is damaged or/and if any camera position or/and the settings is changed.
- When rain, snow, dirt or an object adheres in front of the camera lens.
- When strong light rays fall on the camera. (For example, the light directly shines on the front of the vehicle at sunrise or sunset).
- When a sudden change in brightness occurs. (For example, when the vehicle enters or exits a tunnel or under a bridge).
•  Video may get blur if camera is exposed to bright light and area around is dark/shadowed.
•  360° camera images are reproduced slightly delayed and not in real time due to processing and stitching.
•  Sometimes during 360° camera activation, you may not see stable video feed as some parameters update happens.
•  If video file is corrupted, you may observe black screen while replaying the video and system will reset to default view.
•  If the SD card is corrupted or disconnected, a pop-up does not appear on the HMI screen. Impact: In the Inglo app, secure 360 will show the text “Feed not available” continuously.
•  Secure360 may not record properly if the power is interrupted in between usage. e.g., during crash, low battery, removal of battery and other reasons.
•  If the pendrive is not connected, then DVR video file sharing will not happen.
•  360° camera is only a supplementary function and may display obstacles from a distorted perspective.
•  Avoid using 360° camera if you are having color blindness or impaired color vision.
•  Objects above the ground or hanging objects may appear to be farther away than they are. However, in reality, objects may be closer to your car. In such cases, avoid using guidelines to judge the distance. Since it leads to mis-adjustments and increases the risk of collision with your car.
•  360° camera video is shown based on driver activation, but it cannot be used to see a complete surrounding view. The feature cannot replace the driver for looking into exterior and interior view mirrors.
•  Some obstacles are hard to depict and thus very difficult to recognize due to stitched images, hence sole-reliance on the system may result in a collision.

11 Climate Control System
Climate Control system provided in the vehicle enables occupants to automatically/manually adjust air flow distribution pattern, air flow rate, air intake mode and air temperature inside passenger compartment.
By appropriately selecting the options provided on the Center Information Display (CID) touchscreen, located on center console, occupant’s comfort can be ensured.
Climate control system also helps in defogging / de-misting the windshield and windows. Air flow direction can be further controlled by adjusting louvres of air vents. An air filter is provided at the inlet of blower.
PTC type electric cabin heater is used to heat the cabin air. For cooling the cabin air, an air conditioning circuit based on the vapor compression refrigeration cycle is used. The air conditioning system uses a refrigerant along with a suitable lubricating oil.
Although being non-ozone depleting, the refrigerant is a greenhouse gas, hence once allowed to escape in the atmosphere, it adversely affects the environment by contributing to global warming/climate change
Refrigerant used in system is a hazardous liquefied gas and is under high pressure.
The refrigerant is colorless and has ethereal or faint sweetish odor. Exposure of refrigerant to skin or eyes may cause irritation and frostbite.
They can also cause suffocation, dizziness and loss of concentration. When mixed with compressed air or certain other refrigerants, it may form flammable mixture. Never try to service Climate control system yourself which would involve refrigerant handling. Mahindra shall not be liable for any loss or damage result from such self-servicing. Further, such self-servicing will void the warranty.
If you sleep while operating the air conditioner or heater with all the windows closed, You may suffocate to death due to lack of ventilation. When you operate the air conditioner or heater, ventilate frequently.
Multiple vents are provided for distributing the air, being force-circulated by blower, throughout the passenger compartment.
To ensure sufficient air flow and hence adequate Climate control system performance, air flow path should be kept free of obstructions. Keep system’s air intake, located near plenum appliqué, free of snow, leaves and other debris. Also keep the area in front of air vents free of any obstruction inside the cabin.
During charging of the vehicle with ignition OFF condition, sometimes it can be observed that the A/C touch control panel lights getting ON. This is a normal behavior and happens since the A/ C compressor is active for battery cooling. However, cabin A/C will not turn ON unless it is turned ON by user either through the ICC switch input or through the app.

11.6 Points to Remember
•  For quickly defogging/de-misting outside of front windshield, it is advisable to operate the windshield wiper/washer for few times intermittently
•  If snow has deposited on windshield, use ice scraper to remove ice deposited before using wiper
•  In freezing weather, warm the front windshield with the defogger before using the windshield washer. Also use a washer fluid having anti-freezing properties. These will help prevent the washer fluid from freezing on your windshield
•  Dirty/contaminated windshield would make misting / fogging-up worse. Always keep the inside and outside of windshield clean
•  Reduced air flow because of clogged AC filter or any other obstructions in air flow path may lead to inadequate defogging/ de-misting performance. If air flow seems to have considerably reduced, get the filter cleaned or replaced immediately at an authorised service center only. Air flow path should be kept free of obstructions
•  Reduced cooling performance from air conditioner may lead to inadequate defogging/de-misting. If cooling effect seems to have dropped considerably, get the air conditioning system checked by an Mahindra Authorised Service Center
Your vehicle is equipped with a AC filter. If the AC performance is considerably low, it is recommended to have the AC filter checked at the nearest Mahindra Authorised Service Center.
Keep in mind that a choked filter will also lead to poor cooling.
Never operate HVAC system with the filter removed. This may result in premature failure of system components.

13 Charging and Energy Consumption
An electric vehicle operates using a battery and an electric motor. Unlike conventional vehicles, which rely on an internal combustion engine and gasoline as fuel, electric vehicles are powered by electrical energy stored in a high-voltage battery. As a result, electric vehicles are environmentally friendly, as they do not require fossil fuels and produce no exhaust emissions.
Electric vehicle characteristics:
•  EVs are powered by electrical energy stored in a high-voltage battery, eliminating the need for traditional fuels like gasoline. This method significantly reduces air pollution, as there are no exhaust emissions, making EVs a cleaner, more environmentally friendly transportation option.
•  EVs are equipped with high-performance motors that provide smooth, efficient power delivery. Unlike traditional ICE vehicles, EVs produce minimal engine noise and vibrations, offering a quieter and more comfortable driving experience. This contributes to a more serene ride, with less mechanical noise and less vibration felt inside the cabin
•  When decelerating or driving downhill, regenerative braking is utilized to charge the high voltage battery. This minimizes energy loss and increases the distance to empty
•  When the battery charge is low, there are several charging options available:
AC Charging: This is the most common method. It is slower but convenient for home charging or public charging stations.
DC Fast Charging: This method uses direct current (DC) to rapidly charge the battery at high power levels, often found at fast-charging stations. DC fast charging is ideal for long trips or quick recharges.
Battery Information:
•  The vehicle is equipped with a high-voltage battery that powers the motor and systems like the air conditioning, while a separate 12V auxiliary battery powers components such as the lights, wipers, and audio system.
•  The auxiliary battery is automatically charged when the vehicle is in the "Ready to Drive" mode or when the high-voltage battery is being charged

Power coming from Electric grid is in AC, whereas electric power in battery is in DC. Thus, for charging the electric vehicle, power must be converted from AC to DC. Hence, an on-board charger is used for converting AC to DC. AC charging is mostly recommended for usual charging of the vehicle.
The Electric vehicle can be charged by using household electricity with the help of an EVSE (Electric vehicle supply equipment). The electrical outlet at your home must comply with regulations and must safely accommodate the Voltage/ Current (Amps)/Power (Watts) ratings specified on the portable charger.

13.15 Charging Recommendations
1. Always use charge cable provided with your vehicle for charging.
Refer Charging section for more details
2. Do not charge your vehicle, if Power Socket and / or charge port are exposed to rain or water.
3. Do not plug-in with wet hands.
4. It is recommended not to charge your vehicle in direct sunlight.
5. Make sure that children are kept away from both on-board and external charge ports, while charging.
6. Vehicle should be disconnected from power source before getting any services being carried out.
Always carry charger cable provided by the manufacturer. It helps to charge your vehicle at off sites and in public charging locations when required.
Remote charging option is only applicable for Normal charging
•  Never allow the vehicle to be discharged to 0 % SOC in storage
•  If the vehicle is kept idle for longer duration with low SOC level, it may not be possible to charge or use the vehicle without jump starting or charging the low voltage battery. If you are not able to charge the vehicle even with a booster battery connected, then contact Mahindra authorised dealership for assistance.
•  Always charge to  greater than 50% before leaving the vehicle for long resting period . Ensure to charge to 100 % SOC after the resting period is over using Normal Charger
•  If the resting period is greater than 30 days , disconnect the  negative terminal of the low voltage battery . This reduces the loss of charge for both low voltage and high voltage batteries
•  Allow Normal charging up to 100 % SOC once after 4 fast charge cycles. This will ensure optimal battery performance
•  Use of Fast Charging should be minimized in order to help prolong the life of high voltage battery pack.
•  Frequent fast charging can accelerate battery degradation. If the high-voltage battery deteriorates due to excessive fast charging beyond recommended usage, warranty coverage may be affected.
•  If the vehicle is driven less, then it is recommended to charge the vehicle to 100% and keep it overnight connected, once a week on slow charging
•  Under certain conditions, the thermal system may produce moisture in the air from the front of your vehicle while charging. This is normal and not to be concerned about.
•  In certain conditions, you may see water droplets below the front end of the vehicle during charging, this is normal.
•  It is normal to hear sounds during charging. The refrigerant compressor and fan operate as needed to maintain the battery temperature.
•  At some circumstances, there will be slighter performance drop in cabin cooling. Air conditioning performance is generally not affected by charging. However, in some circumstances (for example, charging at high currents during a particularly warm day), the air coming from the vents may not be as cool as expected. This is normal and ensures that the Battery stays within an optimum temperature range while charging to support longevity and optimum performance.
•  Once in 4 charging session should be normal AC charging, Failing to do so may lead to battery deteriorated.
13.16 Charging Troubleshooting
SI No
Problem
Possible Cause
Remedy
1
Temperature Light is on while charging.
High battery temperature (or) charger temperature (or) ambient temperature. Effect: Charging time of vehicle may increase
Check for radiator fan operation. Check whether enough coolant is available or not and charge in shade/cooler temperature or during night when ambient temperature is low. If the issue persists, Contact Mahindra Authorised dealer for more assistance
2
Vehicle does not charge with ‘Charging System Malfunction’ message on DID.
Graphic
This alert comes when a fault is found during the charging process, in OBC or FC-related functions, or when a battery issue prevents charging.
Contact dealer for assistance.
3
Turn ON the Main Switch for Charging
Graphic
This alert comes, when charging gun is connected to vehicle and the main power is not turned ON
Check if power supply is OK and EVSE LED is ON.
13.17 Ideal Time to Charge
Vehicle can be charged anytime with availability of charging facility; however charging can be done at suitable time that has following advantages:
1. Normally most of requirements for city mobility are during day, hence charging at night will not interfere in daily travel plans.
2. At night, ambient temperature is less which is ideal for battery charging.
13.18 Brake/Coasting Regeneration
This vehicle is equipped with regenerative braking. The regenerative braking system's main objective is to use unused energy available at wheels during deceleration/braking to charge the battery to help increase the driving range and replenish the high voltage battery
The electric motor converts kinetic energy into electrical energy during deceleration and braking of the vehicle. This energy is used to charge the high-voltage battery.
A secondary benefit is an effect similar to “engine braking” seen in IC engine vehicles. Based on HV battery SOC status, regeneration intensity will vary.
When the accelerator pedal is released while driving, the regenerative brake system provides some deceleration and generates power for charging the high voltage battery.
When you apply the brake and take your foot off the accelerator pedal, more regenerative brake is applied and deceleration is maximum.
During high-speed driving you may feel that regenerative brake provides less deceleration than the engine braking in an regular ICE vehicle.
In order to prevent battery damage, regenerative brake is also automatically reduced when the battery temperature is high or low.
Regeneration will be maximum when vehicle is driven in L3 regen mode.
Regeneration function won’t happen above 95% SOC
13.19 Do’s and Don’ts
Do’s
•  Engage parking brake for charging
•  Inspect the charging cable periodically for any damage like crack, cuts, exposed wire and burnt marks on pins in the handle & plug etc. Replace if required.
•  Always charge the vehicle to 100% SOC
•  Always do normal charging after 4 fast charging
Don’ts
•  Do not charge the vehicle if the power source or the charge port is exposed to rain or water
•  Do not carry out charging procedure with wet hands
•  Avoid charging in extreme hot ambient temperature
•  Do not wash while the vehicle in charging
•  Do not use the damaged charging cable, wire, socket & pins
•  Never do fast charging more than 4 times consecutively
•  Immediately stop charging when you find abnormal symptoms (odor, smoke)
•  Do not use the battery as a stationary power source, as this may lead to premature battery degradation and affect your warranty coverage.
13.20 Battery life and performance
Due to battery characteristics, the performance of the BE 6 battery pack will decrease with usage, surrounding environment, actual usage pattern and ageing resulting in a reduced estimated drive range. This is normal and does not indicate a malfunction / defect in the vehicle system or the battery power pack.
The charge storage capacity can also be affected by usage/charging pattern, vehicle storage conditions, battery operating temperature.
For details on battery performance expectations and warranty coverage, including state of health thresholds and eligibility for repair or replacement, refer to the vehicle warranty section.
13.21 Points to remember during Fast Charging
Points to check before/ during charging session
Identify the correct charging station which supports the vehicle protocol (CCS Type 2).
•  Check the vehicle DID before starting the charging session - there should not be any fault indicator.
•  Never try to charge the vehicle on a faulty fast charging station.
•  Properly park the vehicle, therefore there will be no stress on the charge port of the vehicle.
•  Take the charging gun from the charger holder and insert it in the vehicle properly (In case of partial gun insertion, it can cause a gap and might lead to lock failure).
•  Never pull out the charging gun during the ongoing charging session.
•  Once the charging session is done, STOP the charger and remove the charging gun once it is unlocked.
•  Remove the Charge gun from the vehicle and place it back in the charger slot.
•  Continued charging after a fault warning may result in fire, electric shock, or battery damage. The company is not liable for any injury, vehicle damage, or property loss resulting from failure to follow proper troubleshooting procedures. Contact an authorized service center before attempting to charge again.
Points to check in case of Failure: In case of any charging session failure, the user has to check and note down the "Error Code" displayed in the fast charging station display/ mobile application.
•  Retry the charging session.
•  In case of failure again, the user shall report the issue to the Help line number provided on the charging station / mobile application.
DIN and ISO Protocol: Public DC fast-charging machine manufacturers follow DIN or ISO protocols.
BEV is capable of charging with DIN and ISO standards
DIN
ISO
User must do the Authorization through RFID/Mobile application before connecting the charging gun.
Authorisation through RFID/Mobile application to be done after connecting the charge gun with the vehicle.
Authorisation through RFID/Mobile application to be complete in 60 sec. If the user fails to do the same, it will lead to session failure.
Waiting time between charge gun connect and Authorisation is 60 sec. If the user fails to do the same, it will lead to session failure.
ABB (all models), DELTA (25kW wall box charger) etc. follows DIN protocol.
Exicom (all models), DELTA (charger above 25kW output power), OKAYA etc.. follows ISO protocol.
Importance of network connectivity: Public charging uses the mobile application for the “Authorization” of the charging session. If the user is in a weak network area, there will be a delay in completing the authorization process, which may lead to session failure. In this case, the user needs to restart the charging procedure after doing a plug-out and plug-in of the charge gun in the vehicle.
Fault on EVSE : Before starting any charging session, kindly check there is no fault with the charging station. In case of any fault with the charging station there will be a RED fault LED glowing on the charging station. The user is advised NOT to attempt any charging session with a faulty charging station.
In Case of session stop
•  The users are advised to retry the charging session in case of the session is not getting initiated or the session stopped in between.
•  User can re-initiate the charging session by following the steps.
1. Remove the charging gun from the vehicle.
2. Reconnect the charging gun to the vehicle.
3. In case the charging session fails again and again, do report the concern with proper error codes displayed on the charger screen on the help line provided by the charging service provider.
Time To Charge (TTC) Vehicle
•  TTC (Total time to charge) is visible to the user on the vehicle cluster. It provides the information about the time remaining to full charge of the vehicle. User pay attention that this time may vary depending on the charging current/ current demand.
•  The Current demand of the vehicle depends on multiple factors such as temperature of battery pack, charging gun terminal temperature, fast charging machine temperature etc, therefore in case of higher temperature the TTC may increase for safety reasons.

Hazard lamps are turned ON automatically during bonnet open in vehicle stationary condition.
Hazard lamps are turned on automatically for 10 seconds during panic braking condition to indicate following traffic.
Hazard lamps are turned on automatically in case of an unfortunate event of an accident where Airbags are deployed. In such a scenario, the hazard lamps will be on for 30 minutes or it can be turned off by operating Hazard switch (OFF to ON) or Ignition reset (Ignition OFF and ON)
If Incase the vehicle stalls while driving
•  Shift the mode to N.
•  Press the Hazard button
•  Manoeuvre the vehicle to side.
14.2 Tiretronics (If equipped)
The tiretronics system checks the pressure and temperature of the air inside the pneumatic tyres of the vehicle. System alerts the driver during driving if any of the tyre parameters are not in acceptable limits due to any reason.
The system will continue to alert until the warning condition is resolved to the actual tyre pressure values.
Appropriate tyre pressure and tyre temperature is required for;
•  Adequate braking
•  Road grip
•  Vehicle handling
•  Vehicle maneuvering
•  Reduced tyre wear and tear
•  Reduced tyre strain and safety
•  Good range of the vehicle
The DID(Driver Information Display) screen displays all alerts related to Tiretronics on the DID screen and indicates the visual warnings for all Tiretronics alerts.
Graphic
Whenever low pressure or high pressure or Pressure leakage observed, corresponding tyre shall highlight and Low Pressure/High Pressure/Pressure Leakage message displayed in the DID screen.
14.2.1 Operation of Tiretronics
Tiretronics uses wireless sensor technology that is mounted on the wheel rim to checks the tyre pressure levels. They transmit the data to the receiver inside the vehicle which is in turn is communicated and displayed on the CID (center Information Display) screen.
In the CID screen all four tyre locations will display the status as pressure and temperature except spare tyre.
The Tiretronics has been customized only for the manufacturer’s genuine tyres and wheels. Tiretronics pressure limits and warning messages have been established and calibrated for the tyre size equipped on your vehicle. Replacement of manufacturer’s parts with a different size, type or style of components may damage the sensor and lead to incorrect readings.
Do not use aftermarket tyre sealants or balance beads if your vehicle is equipped with Tiretronics. Failure to comply may lead to sensor damage.
The Tiretronics is not intended to replace normal tyre care and maintenance or to warn of any tyre failure condition. The system should not be used as a replacement for a pressure measuring gauge to adjust the vehicle tyre pressure.
Driving with under-inflated tyres cause the tyres to overheat and may lead to tyre failure. Under-inflated tyres reduce the vehicle range, tyre tread life and may affect the vehicle's maneuverability and braking ability.
It is the driver's responsibility to maintain correct tyre pressure using an accurate pressure gauge, even if under-inflation has not reached the level to trigger illumination of the Tiretronics warning indicator.

The valve must be positioned just left of the start position to avoid sensor damage. Do not touch the sensor with the tyre tool.
8. Lift the inner tyre bead over the rim using the tyre tool
9. Remove existing valve stem
Starting to mount the tyre from the valve location is a wrong fitment. Fixing tool/stem may hit the sensor and damage it. Start from the opposite direction.
14.2.4 Tiretronics Learning
A - Auto Learning - Auto learning will be done if it is enabled in CID.
In Centre Information Display (CID) Go to App Drawer/ Vehicle Apps /My Vehicle / Exteriors / Tyres / Auto Learn (Enable/Disable)
Graphic
Graphic
In case of tyres location changed from its original location, Automatically tyre swap location shall be identified and pressure and temperature value for respective tyre shall be updated within 10 min of vehicle driving based on environmental condition & vehicle drive condition auto location shall take one or more drive cycle to auto learn.
In case of a new TPMS replaced in the tyre, automatically system shall identify the tyre swapped location and update the warnings and alert for new location.
B - Manual learning - Manual learning has to be if Auto learn is not enabled in CID
After a tyre rotation or tiretronics sensor replacement, the receiver must be learnt, else  the tiretronics warning lamp indicates a malfunction.
Recommended practice.
Manual learning is the process by which the identities of 4 sensors installed inside the tyres are learnt and programmed in to the memory of the receiver module.
1. Manual learning should be compulsorily performed on any of the following conditions or operations done
•  Any sensors replaced.
•  If it is observed that the alert indications in the tiretronics in DID are not co-relating with respect to their actual position in the vehicle
2. Once manual learning is initiated, the sensors inside the tyres need to be triggered by leaking the air from each tyre one at a time and should be completed within certain value post to each event for learning all 4 tyres
3. Do not perform Manual learning process at the same time on two vehicles with in the radius of 20 meters
4. It is mandatory that manual learning of tyres should follow the sequence of ‘front left tyre position, front right tyre, rear right tyre and rear left tyre.
5. It is required to ensure the tyres have pressure < 36 psi before initiating the manual learning process
6. Post manual learning, all four tyres should be filled to the tyre pressure pressure value
It is mandatory that manual learning of tyres should follow the sequence of ‘front left tyre position, front right tyre, rear right tyre and rear left tyre .
Tiretronics Learning Procedure (Manual)
•  Please ensure that the tyre pressure for all four tyres is set to 36 psi before proceeding with the process.
•  Turn the ignition ON
•  In Centre Information Display (CID) Go to Menu / Vehicle Apps /My Vehicle / Exteriors / Tyres / TPMS Manual Learning (Enable/Disable)
Graphic
•  After enabling the TPMS manual learning, wait until the icon changes to the 'Disable' form.
•  Then, observe the DID for the Tiretronics telltale blinking, the vehicle position lamp blink one time and hazard lamps flashing twice along with horn 2 times and the CID screen displaying ' TPMS MANUAL LEARNING.'
•  The sequence for TPMS manual learning is as follows: Front Left (FL), Front Right (FR), Rear Right (RR), and Rear Left (RL). After all tyres have been learned, perform an ignition reset.
•  If problem still persist, contact an Authorized Mahindra Dealer for further assistance.
Starting from Front Left Tyre:
Start leaking the air from the front left for 10 to 15 sec and stop for 5 sec. Repeat until the tyre gets learnt
Graphic
If the front left tyre is learned, vehicle position lamp blink one time and hazard lamps flash once along with horn 1time and the FL tyre shows learned in the CID screen.
Learning the Front Right Tyre:
Start leaking the air from the front right for 10 to 15sec and stop for 5 sec. Repeat until the tyre gets learnt.
If the front right tyre is learned, vehicle position lamp blink one time and hazard lamps flash once along with horn 1 time and the FR tyre shows learned in the CID screen.
Graphic
Learning the Rear Right Tyre:
Start leaking the air from the rear right for 10 to 15sec and stop for 5 sec. Repeat until the tyre gets learnt.
Graphic
If the rear right tyre is learned, vehicle position lamp blink one time and hazard lamps flash once along with horn 1 time and the RR tyre shows learned in the CID screen.
Completing the Learning with Rear Left Tyre:
Start leaking the air from the rear left tyre for 10 to 15 sec and stop for 5 sec. Repeat until the tyre gets learnt.
Graphic
If the rear left tyre is learned, vehicle hazard lamps flash once and the RL tyre shows learned in the CID screen.
If rear left tyre is also learned, vehicle position lamp blink one time and hazard lamps flashing one time along with horn 1 time and ALL tyres show learned at respective tyre positions and ‘TPMS manual learning successful” in the CID screen.
Graphic
If learning is not successful at any point of time, or at any point of time during the learning process if the learning takes more than 90 secs of time for each tyre position then the system shall exit the learning mode and show the ‘TPMS Manual Learning unsuccessful’ screen.
Graphic
Also the vehicle position lamp blink one time and hazard lamps flashing in four times along with horn 4 times.
Limitations
•  The Tiretronics monitors only tyre pressure and temperature. It does not monitor conditions such as tyre wear
•  The Tiretronics will not be able to detect an instant tyre burst and inform the driver in advance
•  There may be the possibility of getting all the tyre location indicators on the Tiretronics display blinking along with the Tiretronics telltale, on passing environment area prone to heavy power lines and RF signal. It will come back to normal condition whenever interference gets cleared
14.2.5 Tiretronics — Points to Remember
•  It is recommended to fill the pressure to 36 psi at a digital gauge station only
•  Every 15 days, inflate all the tyres up to 36 psi and inflation should be done at cold condition/ambient temperature
•  Pressure deviation between the Tiretronics display and gauge will depend upon the following factors:
–  Atmospheric pressure
–  Error in pressure filling gauge (not calibrated)
–  Air leakage during inflation/deflation
•  Tiretronics measures the absolute pressure of the tyre, not relative pressure (gauge pressure)
•  Pressure deviation is defined for 0.5 psi (min) and 3 psi (max)
•  If the vehicle battery/fuse is disconnected and reconnected, it will update the pressure after the vehicle is driven or sensor is activated
•  It is mandatory that manual learning should be performed if the vehicle tyres are rotated or any of the tyres sensors are replaced, else the system will give a false alert with respect to false location
•  If more than one tyre needs to be learned, learn all 4 tyres as per manual learning procedure
•  Tiretronics is only a warning or indicating device. Pressure and temperature values displayed by the system is for indication prior to alert purposes only. The Tiretronics system should not be used as a measuring device to correlate or calibrate against other systems
•  During winter or in cold conditions, there may be chances of getting a pressure alert with the corresponding tyre location indicator in the display, if the tyre pressure is near the thresholds level. i.e. between 28 psi to 24 psi. However, this alert will get cleared after driving a few kilometers depending upon the climatic condition
14.3 Indirect Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (ITPMS) (If equipped)
The Indirect Tyre Monitoring System (ITPMS) is a safety feature designed to help you maintain proper pressure and ensure optimal vehicle performance. Unlike direct Tyre pressure monitoring systems, which use sensors in each Tyre, the ITPMS estimates Tyre pressure by monitoring wheel speed and other vehicle dynamics.
14.3.1 Working process
Wheel Speed Monitoring
•  The ITPMS uses the vehicle’s anti-lock braking system (ABS) sensors to monitor the rotational speed of each wheel. If a Tyre’s pressure drops significantly, it will affect the wheel’s rotation compared to the others.
•  The system calculates the difference in wheel speeds to determine if one or more Tyres are under-inflated.
Alert Notifications
•  If the system detects a significant difference in wheel speeds that may indicate low Tyre pressure, a warning light will illuminate on the dashboard. You will also receive a notification indicating that one or more Tyres may require attention.
•  It is essential to respond promptly to these alerts by checking the Tyre pressures and inflating them to the recommended levels.
System Calibration
•  The ITPMS requires periodic calibration, especially after Tyre rotations, replacements, or changes in Tyre size.
•  Calibration helps ensure accurate monitoring and alert functionality.
•  Refer Authorised Mahindra Service center for assistance.
Regular Tyre Maintenance
•  The ITPMS is a supplementary system and should not replace regular Tyre inspections. Check Tyre pressure regularly, especially before long trips or during changes in temperature
Temperature Effects
•  Tyre pressure can fluctuate with changes in temperature. It’s advisable to check Tyre pressures when the Tyres are cold (after being parked for a few hours) for the most accurate readings.
Limitations
•  The ITPMS may not detect slow leaks or small changes in Tyre pressure. Always maintain routine Tyre maintenance and visually inspect Tyres for any visible damage or wear.
•  If the warning light remains illuminated after checking and inflating your Tyres to the recommended pressure, there may be a system fault. Consult the vehicle display for additional messages or alerts.
•  For persistent issues or if you suspect a malfunction in the ITPMS, consult the vehicle’s service manual or contact your authorized dealership for assistance
The Indirect Tyre Monitoring System is a driver assistance feature designed to enhance safety and vehicle performance. However, it does not replace the need for regular Tyre maintenance and inspections. Always drive responsibly and adhere to safety guidelines
Important Note:
ITPMS
Only the pressure will be intimated to the driver by measuring the speed when the wheels are rotating.
TPMS
Direct TPMS will measure the Tyre pressure using hardware sensors located in each Tyre with a warning in the DID if there is pressure difference.
14.4 Tyre Care and Maintenance
14.4.1 Tyre Pressure
Proper Tyre inflation pressure is essential to the safe and satisfactory operation of your vehicle. Three primary areas are affected by improper Tyre pressure:
•  Safety
•  Economy
•  Ride Comfort and Vehicle Stability
Proper Tyre inflation contributes to a comfortable and safe ride. Overinflating produces a jarring and uncomfortable ride. Both underinflation and overinflation affect the stability of the vehicle and can produce a feeling of sluggish response or over responsiveness in the steering. Unequal Tyre pressures can cause erratic and unpredictable steering response or may cause the vehicle to drift left or right.
Improper inflation pressures can cause uneven wear patterns to develop across the Tyre tread. These abnormal wear patterns will reduce tread life resulting in a need for earlier Tyre replacement. Under inflation also increases Tyre rolling resistance and results in higher fuel consumption.
The proper cold Tyre inflation pressure is listed in the Tyre Label (Vehicle tyre pressure), located on the front passenger side inner B-pillar.

14.6 Changing a Flat Tyre
In case of a flat tyre during driving, reduce your speed gradually, keeping a straight line. Move cautiously off the road to a safe place well away from traffic. Park on a level spot with firm ground. Stop the vehicle and turn ON your hazard warning flashers.
Firmly apply the parking brake. Have everyone come out of the vehicle on the side away from traffic.
A flat tire significantly reduces traction and stability, increasing the risk of losing control of the vehicle and causing an accident.
Driving on a flat tire can pose serious safety risks to you and other road users, as it increases the likelihood of accidents and breakdowns.
The tire can become completely shredded, making it impossible to repair and requiring a full replacement and the rim to make direct contact with the road, leading to costly damage.
Never stop your vehicle in a traffic lane to change a tyre. You could be hit by an oncoming vehicle. Keep driving until you reach a safe location. If you cannot reach a safe area, turn on the hazard lights, remain inside the vehicle with seatbelts fastened, and call roadside assistance
Lifting a vehicle to change a tyre or perform maintenance is very dangerous if you do not have the requisite tools, safety equipment and training. The jack provided along with the vehicle is to be used only for changing a spare tyre. It is never to be used to perform any other maintenance or repair on the vehicle.
Using a vehicle jack safely during an emergency requires careful attention to several precautionary measures. Here are some important steps to follow:
Ensure the vehicle is on a flat, stable surface to prevent it from rolling or shifting. Avoid soft or uneven ground.
Engage the Parking Brake
Turn on Hazard Lights
Place wheel chocks or large rocks behind and in front of the wheels
Place the jack under the designated jack points
Carefully raise the vehicle by turning the jack handle slowly and steadily. Ensure the vehicle remains stable throughout the process.
Never get under the vehicle while it is supported only by the jack.
Never place any part of your body under any portion of the vehicle when it is supported only by the jack. You could be crushed by the vehicle if it falls off a jack. Keep bystanders away from the vehicle.
Find level, solid ground that is clear of oncoming traffic. If you cannot find a safe place to stop, it is better to drive on a flat tyre and damage the rim than it is to risk being hit by oncoming traffic. After changing a flat Tyre, never store the tyre or other equipment in the passenger compartment of the vehicle. This loose equipment could strike an occupant in the event of a sudden stop or collision. Store all of these items in the proper place.
The spare wheel is only for emergency situations, speed limit of 80 kmph. Never use it for normal driving. After installing the spare wheel, take your vehicle to a Mahindra Authorised Service Centre or a tyre - specialised shop to repair/replace with specified tyre for the vehicle.
With a temporary tire installed, a vehicle’s handling may be different, requiring careful driving until a full-sized tire is installed.

B : Chock Blocks
To raise the vehicle, insert the jack handle end along with the wheel spanner into the jack and turn it clockwise with the jack handle. As the jack touches the vehicle and begins to lift, check that it is properly positioned. Raise it high enough so that the spare tyre can be installed. Remember, you will need more ground clearance when putting on the spare tyre than when removing the flat tyre.
Graphic
Make sure to set the jack properly in the jacking point. Raising the vehicle with an improperly positioned jack will damage the underbody of the vehicle or may allow the vehicle to fall off the jack and cause personal injury.
•  Use the jack only for lifting your vehicle during wheel changing
•  Do not raise the jack with someone in the vehicle
•  When raising the vehicle, do not place any objects on top or underneath the jack
•  Raise the vehicle only high enough to remove and change the wheel
•  Usable extended height of jack is up to the yellow line/mark provided in the jack. Do not raise the jack above the yellow line
•  Follow jacking instructions
•  Do not start or run the vehicle while your vehicle is supported by the jack
Never get under the vehicle when the vehicle is supported by the jack alone.
Always place the jack on the designated jacking positions on the vehicle and Never on the HV battery area, bumpers or any other part of the vehicle for jacking support.
If there is any damages happen in underbody (HV Battery) area, Contact mahindra authorised dealer immediately
14.6.7 Wheel Bolt Loosening

Graphic
•  Once the tyre is positioned, assemble the remaining bolts, leaving the stud hole empty. Hand-tighten all the bolts without using a spanner.
Graphic
•  As the final step, remove the stud, replace it with a bolt, and securely tighten all bolts.
•  In the jacked up condition, do not torque tighten the wheel bolts.
Graphic
•  The vehicle can now be lowered to the ground from its jacked-up position and tighten the diagonally opposite wheel bolts using the wheel spanner.
•  Grab the spanner near the end of the handle and push down on the handle. Be careful that the spanner does not slip off the bolt. Do not remove the bolts, but loosen them by one or two turns.
Do not apply force with your legs (or stand) on the wheel spanner while loosening/tightening the wheel bolts.
Grab the spanner near the end of the handle and push down on the handle. Be careful that the spanner does not slip off the bolt. Do not remove the bolts, but loosen them by one or two turns.
Do not lift alloy rims with aero bezels during handling. Lifting by the bezels may cause damage to the aero components and compromise the integrity of the wheel..
Never use oil or grease on the bolts . Doing so may lead to over tightening of the bolts, wheel spanner slip, damage the bolts and also may cause personal injuries. Also, bolts may loosen and the wheels may fall off, which could cause a serious accident. If there is oil or grease on any bolt, clean before installing.
Improperly or loosely tightened wheel bolts are dangerous. The wheel could wobble or come off. This could result in loss of vehicle control and cause a serious accident. Always make sure all the wheel bolts are properly/securely tightened to the specified torque.
When lowering the vehicle, make sure all portions of your body are clear off the vehicle as it is lowered to the ground. Have the wheel bolts tightened with the torque spanner to140 Nm , as soon as possible after changing wheels.
If you have rotated, repaired, changed your tyres or changed the wheel rims, check the wheel bolts are still tight after driving about 1,000 km (Torque 140 Nm).
Put the wheel cap (if equipped) into position aligning the nozzle on the wheel to the nozzle clearance on the wheel cover. Tap it firmly on the sides with your hand to snap it into place.
Check the air pressure of the replaced tyre. If the pressure is lower than recommended, drive slowly to the nearest service station and inflate to the correct pressure. If it is too high, adjust it until it is correct. Always reinstall the valve cap after checking or adjusting tyre pressure. If the cap is not replaced, dirt and moisture could get into the valve core and cause air leakage. If you lose a valve cap, buy another and instal it as soon as possible.

15.9.13 Air Conditioning System Maintenance
Your vehicle's air-conditioning is a sealed system. Any major maintenance, such as refrigerant recharging should be done by a qualified technician. However, you can do a few things by yourself to make sure the air conditioning works efficiently.
Run the air-conditioning system at least once a week, even during the cold weather months. Run it for at least ten minutes at normal operating temperature. This circulates the lubricating oil contained in the refrigerant.
Whenever you get the air-conditioning system serviced, make sure the service facility uses a refrigerant recycling system. This system captures the refrigerant for re-use. Releasing the refrigerant into the atmosphere may cause damage to the environment.
15.9.14 Vehicle Storage
If the resting period is greater than 30 days, disconnect the negative terminal of the low voltage battery. This reduces the loss of charge for both low voltage and high voltage batteries. For battery cable disconnect frunk need to be removed.
Anytime you store your vehicle or keep it out of service (i.e. vacation) for two weeks or more, run the air conditioning system at idle for about five minutes in the fresh air mode and high blower speed setting. This will ensure adequate system lubrication to minimize the possibility of compressor damage when the system is started again.
It is recommended storing the vehicle in a covered, clean, dry, well levelled, ventilated and closed place. Avoid parking or storing the vehicle in extremely hot or freezing conditions for extended periods, as this can lead to battery degradation. High-voltage components are sensitive to extreme environmental conditions.
When your vehicle is idle and unplugged, it uses energy from the battery to recharge the low voltage battery as needed.
Avoid parking for extended periods in unsuitable environments, such as areas with high heat reflection, to prevent vehicle damage caused by overheating.
15.9.15 Service Reminder Alert
The service reminder alert is to notify the driver/user when the next scheduled service is approaching. This alert is displayed on the CID and become active when the ignition is turned ON.

15.10.4 Tyre Label (Vehicle Placard)
Graphic
Tyre Label (Vehicle Placard) is located on the driver side inner B-pillar. This placard tells you important information about tyre size designed for your vehicle, and the tyre inflation pressures for the front & rear tyres.
Graphic
Never overload your vehicle. Overloading can cause tyre failure, affect vehicle handling, and increase your stopping distance, resulting in an accident and/or serious personal injury.
Improper inflated tyres can adversely affect vehicle handling or can fail unexpectedly, resulting in an accident and/or serious personal injury.
15.10.5 Tyre Pressure
Proper Tyre inflation pressure is essential to the safe and satisfactory operation of your vehicle. Three primary areas are affected by improper Tyre pressure:
•  Safety
•  Economy
•  Ride Comfort and Vehicle Stability
Proper Tyre inflation contributes to a comfortable and safe ride. Overinflating produces a jarring and uncomfortable ride. Both underinflation and overinflation affect the stability of the vehicle and can produce a feeling of sluggish response or over responsiveness in the steering. Unequal Tyre pressures can cause erratic and unpredictable steering response or may cause the vehicle to drift left or right.
Improper inflation pressures can cause uneven wear patterns to develop across the Tyre tread. These abnormal wear patterns will reduce tread life resulting in a need for earlier Tyre replacement. Under inflation also increases Tyre rolling resistance and results in higher fuel consumption.
The proper cold Tyre inflation pressure is listed in the Tyre Label (Vehicle Placard), located on the front passenger side inner B-pillar.
15.10.6 Inspection and Adjustment Procedure
The Tyre pressure should be checked and adjusted, as well as inspected for signs of Tyre wear or visible damage, at least once a month. Use a good quality pressure gauge to check Tyre pressure. Do not make a visual judgement when determining proper inflation. Radial Tyres may look properly inflated even when they are underinflated. At the same time, each Tyre should be inspected for signs of Tyre wear or visible damage.
Inflation pressures specified on the placard are always cold Tyre inflation pressures. Cold Tyre inflation pressure is defined as the Tyre pressure after the vehicle has not been driven for at least three hours or driven less than 1 km after a three-hour period. Check Tyre pressures more often if subject to a wide range of outdoor temperatures, as Tyre pressures vary with temperature changes. Tyre pressures change by approximately 1 psi (7 kPa) per 7°C of air temperature change. Keep this in mind when checking Tyre pressure inside a garage, especially in the winter.
When it was new, the spare Tyre in your vehicle was fully inflated. However, a spare Tyre can lose pressure over time. In order to avoid being stranded, check the spare Tyre air pressure frequently.
15.10.7 Inflating Your Tyres
Safe operation of your vehicle requires that your Tyres are properly inflated. Remember that a Tyre can lose up to half of its air pressure without appearing flat.
At least once a month or before long trips, inspect each Tyre and check the Tyre pressure with a Tyre gauge (including spare Tyre). Inflate all Tyres to the recommended inflation pressure.
Under-inflation is the most common cause of Tyre failures and may result in severe Tyre cracking, tread separation or “blowout,” with unexpected loss of vehicle control and increased risk of injury. Under-inflation increases sidewall flexing and rolling resistance, resulting in heat buildup and internal damage to the Tyre. It also may result in unnecessary Tyre stress, irregular wear, loss of vehicle control and accidents.
Always inflate your Tyres to the recommended pressure even if it is less than the maximum inflation pressure information found on the Tyre. The recommended Tyre inflation pressure is found on the Tyre Label which is located on the front passenger side inner B-pillar. Failure to follow the Tyre pressure recommendations can cause uneven tread wear patterns and adversely affect the way your vehicle handles.
If you overfill the Tyre, release air by pushing the metal stem in the center of the valve. Then recheck the pressure.
After inspecting or adjusting the Tyre pressure, always reinstall the valve stem cap (if equipped). This will prevent moisture and dirt from entering the valve stem, which could damage the stem, resulting in an unexpected loss of Tyre pressure, an accident and/or personal injury.
15.10.8 Radial Ply Tyres
Combining radial ply Tyres with other types of Tyres on your vehicle will cause your vehicle to handle poorly, resulting in an accident and/or personal injury. Always use radial Tyres in sets of four. Never combine them with other types of Tyres.
Cuts and punctures in radial Tyres are repairable only in the tread area because of sidewall flexing. Consult your Mahindra Authorised Dealer for radial Tyre repairs.
15.10.9 Asymmetrical Tyres
Asymmetrical tyres are designed with different tread patterns on the inner and outer edges to optimize performance. The outer section is often stiffer, providing better grip during cornering, while the inner section helps with water dispersion and stability.
Ensure the sidewall labeled "Outside" faces outward when the tyre is mounted. This is crucial for proper performance. Incorrect positioning can compromise tyre performance and safety, so always double-check.
15.10.10 Foam Tyres
Foam-filled tires, helps significantly reduce the cabin noise by absorbing vibrations and road sounds. This technology, particularly beneficial for electric vehicles (EVs), enhances the overall driving experience by creating a quieter and more comfortable ride. As EVs are naturally quieter than traditional vehicles, foam tires further minimize tire noise, offering a smoother, more serene journey.
Follow the below procedure to repair the punctured foam tyre (Less than 4mm)
1. Removing Nail from tyre
•  Locate and Mark the area from outside where the injury found.
•  Remove the nail using an appropriate tool.

11. Finishing
•  Cut the excess stem in level of tyre surface using knife without pulling it or stretching it
Checking Point: Mount the repaired tire on Rim , inflate and check repaired portion for leak from outside using Soap solution After Puncture repair or New tyre replacement, TPMS configuration to be done.
15.10.11 Tread Wear Assessment
Tyre wear can be assessed by looking the tyre wear indicator (TWI). The TWI will appear as a band across the tyre tread when the tyre wears out to the minimum allowed tread depth of 1.6 mm
Tyre Wear Indicator (TWI)
Graphic
A mark of triangle in the Tyre side wall indicates the position of the Tyre wear indicators at 6 to 9 locations around the circumference of the tyre.
The TWI appear as raised portions inside the tread in a new or partially worn tyre (A).
As the tyre wears out to its minimum allowable tread depth, the TWI will appear as a band across the tyre tread (B).
The tyre should be replaced at this stage or before this stage.
New Tread (A)
Worn Tread (B)
Graphic
Graphic
It is extremely dangerous to drive with worn out tyres on wet roads/rainy seasons. The vehicle can skid and aquaplane on wet surfaces, if the tyre tread depth is insufficient.
Replace the tyre before the tyre tread depth reached the minimum acceptable limit.
15.10.12 Life of Tyre
The service life of a Tyre is dependent upon various factors including but not limited to:
•  Driving style
•  Tyre pressure
•  Distance driven
Tyres and the spare Tyre should be replaced after six years, regardless of the remaining tread. Failure to follow this warning can result in sudden and unexpected Tyre failure, leading to an accident and/or personal injury.
Keep dismounted Tyres in a cool, dry place with as little exposure to light as possible. Protect Tyres from contact with oil, grease and fuels.
Do not use a Tyre, wheel size or speed rating other than that specified for your vehicle on the Tyre placard. Combinations of unapproved Tyres and wheels may change suspension geometric and performance characteristics, resulting in changes to steering, handling and braking of your vehicle. This can cause unpredictable handling, stress to steering and suspension components. You could lose control of the vehicle or the Tyre can unexpectedly fail, resulting in an accident and/or personal injury.
Replacing original Tyres with Tyres of a different size may result in false speedometer and odometer readings.
15.10.13 Snow Chains
Snow chains cannot be used on these Tyres.
In case of harsh winter driving conditions, it is recommended using winter Tyres with the same specifications for better stability, safety and performance.
15.10.14 Tyre Rotation Recommendations
Applicable for 4 Alloy/Steel wheels :It is recommended rotating the Tyres as per the “Maintenance Schedule”.
Graphic
The suggested rotation method is the “forward-cross” shown in the diagram. The benefits of rotation are especially worthwhile with aggressive tread designs such as those on On/Off-road type Tyres.
Rotation will increase tread life, help to maintain mud, snow, and wet traction levels, and contribute to a smooth, quiet ride. Follow the recommended Tyre rotation frequency for your type of driving. More frequent rotation is permissible if desired. The reasons for any rapid or unusual wear should be corrected prior to rotation being performed.
It is not recommended to use the temporary spare tyre for routine tyre rotation.
15.10.15 Temporary Spare Wheel
Regular Tyre
Temporary Tyre
Graphic
Graphic
The spare wheel provided on your vehicle is for temporary purpose only. Do not use the spare wheel for continuous running. Extended use or high-speed driving with the temporary wheel may compromise vehicle stability and increase the risk if tyre failure.
When Using the Temporary Spare Wheel
•  Temporary Spare Wheel provided specifically designed for your vehicle.
•  Drive the shortest possible distance with Temporary Spare Wheel.
•  While using Temporary spare wheel reduce speed, Avoid sharp cornering, Avoid sudden acceleration, abrupt steering, sudden braking and shifting operations that cause sudden braking.
When Temporary Spare Wheel is fitted in the vehicle
The vehicle speed may not be correctly detected, and the following systems may not operate correctly:
ABS, Cruise control (If equipped) EPS, Rear View monitor system (If equipped), Navigation system (If equipped)
Speed Limit when using Temporary Spare tyre
Do not drive at speeds in excess of 80 km/h when a Temporary Spare Wheel is installed on the vehicle.
The temporary Spare Wheel is not designed for driving at high speeds. Failure to observe this precaution may lead to an accident causing death or serious injury.
•  The vehicle becomes lower when driving with the Temporary Spare tyre compared to when driving with standard tyres. Be careful when driving over uneven road surfaces.
•  Inflate the tyres as per manufacturers recommendation, refer Tyre pressure label on the door panel
•  Do not fit tyre chains to the Temporary spare tyre.
Tyre chains may damage the vehicle body and adversely affect driving performance.
•  Tyre to be loaded within the max allowable load limit specified by the load rating index marked on the tyre.
•  Tyre to be operated with in the speed limit specified by the speed rating index marked on the tyre
•  The tread depth of temporary tyre is lesser compared to regular tyre. Hence do not use the temporary tyre for longer distance than recommended. Repair & refit the regular tyre as soon as possible.
•  Recommended to drive Max 50 km in a stretch or reach nearest Mahindra authorised dealer
15.10.16 Changing a Flat Tyre
Refer “Changing a Flat Tyre” section in the Emergency Situations chapter for more details.
15.10.17 Wheel Tightness
When you change a wheel, remove all rust and dirt at all locations where the wheel contacts the wheel hub. Use a scraper or wire brush to be sure that you remove all rust and dirt. A loose wheel could have damaged or elongated the holes in the rim, or damaged the rim/hub assembly. If any of the wheel bolts are damaged, contact the nearest Mahindra Authorised Dealer.
Always tighten the bolts in a crisscross sequence. Never use oil or grease on your wheel bolts.
Never overtighten the bolts on the wheel. You could damage the bolt.
Torque tighten the wheel bolts to the specified value at the nearest Mahindra Authorised Dealer .
Do not use a nut runner to tighten the wheel bolt
The tyres and wheel rims fitted in this vehicle meet the requirements of BIS and they comply with the requirements under the Central Motor Vehicles Rules (CMVR) 1989.
15.11 Fuses & Relays
A fuse is the most common electric protection device. A fuse is placed in an electrical circuit, so that when current flow exceeds the rating of the fuse, it blows off.
The element in the fuse melts, opening the circuit and preventing other components of the circuit from being damaged by the over current. The size of the metal fuse element determines the rating. Once a fuse blows off, it must be replaced with a new one.
You can identify a blown fuse by a break in the filament. All fuses except high current fuses are push fit. A fuse puller should be used to remove the fuse from its position.
Before handling any fuses, always switch off the ignition, lights, and all electrical equipment to prevent the risk of electrical shock or short circuits
Never replace a fuse with one of a different rating, as this may cause electrical damage or create a fire hazard.
Fuse replacements or electrical repairs should only be performed by a Mahindra Authorized Service Center or a qualified workshop. Improper handling may result in serious damage to the vehicle’s electrical system
Graphic
Fuse puller is available at the motor compartment fuse box.
15.11.1 Motor Compartment Fuse Box
Motor compartment fuse box is located adjacent to vehicle LV battery.
