STARTING & DRIVING Driving In Adverse Conditions
Driving on a Rainy Day :
• Check wiper blades for proper functioning.
• Check brakes, steering and windows.
• Check tyres for wear and tyre pressure. Worn out tyres
are unsafe on wet roads.
• Avoid harsh braking and sharp turns. It may cause loss
of steering control and lead to the car skidding.
• For slowing down, shift to lower gears and apply brakes
gently.
• Keep lights on if visibility is poor.
• Use heater and demister if required to clear off mist on
the windshield.
Night Driving :
• Dip the head lamp for oncoming traffic during night driving.
• Maintain a speed such that you can stop within illuminated
distance of the head lamps.
• Use head lamp main/dip beam to alert other users on
turns/cross roads, etc.
• Use side indicators to indicate lane change or turning.
• Put on the hazard warning switch in case of hazardous
parking or if your car is disabled to warn passing traffic.
Put on the fog lamps (for Deluxe version) if required.
