All indicators shown may not be applicable to the vehicle. Above image is only for reference.
Instrument Cluster – Digital Cluster (Version 2)
NOTE
All indicators shown may not be applicable to the vehicle. Above image is only for reference.
Speedometer
Speedometer indicates the vehicle speed in kmph.
NOTE
- At every key IN and ignition ON, speedometer digits moves from 0 to 199 and returns to 0.
- This is a welcome strategy and a self-check feature.
Tachometer Tachometer indicates engine speed in revolutions per min (rpm).
WARNING
- Whenever engine is accelerated beyond safe rpm, tachometer display turns RED. In such case, reduce the engine RPM immediately.
- Do not drive the vehicle with a high engine rpm. This may cause damage to the engine and re-duce its life.
NOTE
- At every key IN and Ignition ON, tachometer LED display moves from Min to MAX and returns to first bar ON.
- This is a welcome strategy and a self-check feature.
Fuel Gauge When the ignition switch is in “ON” position, fuel LED gives an approximate indication of the amount of fuel in the fuel tank. In indication window, “F” stands for full and “E” stands for empty.
When fuel in the tank nears empty, low fuel warning telltale light glows. Fill fuel as soon as possible. If fuel is not filled even after Low fuel warning telltale ‘ON’, first bar in fuel gauge will start blinking to indicate more severe low fuel warning.
NOTE
- On inclines or curves, the fuel gauge may fluctuate or the 1st bar may blink or low fuel telltale may turn ON earlier than actual due to the movement of fuel in the tank.
- On inclines, curves, braking and sudden acceleration due to the movement of fuel in the tank, the fuel level display may fluctuate or the low fuel level warning lamp may illuminate earlier than usual. Always check the fuel level when the vehicle is on level road.
- When the ignition switch is in the “ON” position, this gauge gives an approximate indication of the amount of fuel in the fuel tank.
Temperature Gauge
When the ignition switch is in the “ON” position, this LED indicates the engine coolant temperature. The indicator should be within the normal, acceptable temperature range i.e. between “H” and “C”. If the indicator approaches “H”, overheating is indicated by a RED bar. If the coolant temperature reading is very high, the warning tell-tale flashes with an audible buzzer. In this case, stop the vehicle, switch ‘OFF’ the engine and cool it down for some time. Contact a nearest TATA MOTORS Authorized Ser-vice Centre immediately for rectification.
NOTE
At every key in and Ignition ON, Temperature Gauge Bars move to H and come back to C position. This is welcome strategy and self check feature.
WARNING
- The red progress bar indicates over heating due to high coolant temperature that may damage the engine. If you continue to drive the vehicle in this case, it can result in severe engine dam-age or even fire.
- Never remove the radiator pressure cap from the radiator when the engine is hot. Do not restart the engine until the problem has been duly attended.
