It is the outcome of research & development by Tata Motors Limited. The INDICA VISTA incorporates all the advanced features of Tata Motors precision and advanced technology. The INDICA VISTA is powered by new generation engines that have been designed to deliver consistent and optimum performance under the toughest conditions. The INDICA VISTA has vacuum assisted independent hydraulic brakes with disc brakes in front and drum brakes for the rear wheels. The suspension has been designed to provide a comfortable ride. This design incorporates solutions to eliminate vibrations caused due to road undulations and provide better stability in all driving conditions coupled with reduced noise levels in the car. In addition to all these, TATA vehicles are backed by a well established service network with trained and skilled manpower that ensures proper maintenance. The INDICA VISTA is a hatchback having five doors with an ergonomically designed cab with added features like collapsible and adjustable power steering, central locking, power windows, sophisticated HVAC system, multi adjustable Driver and co-driver seats having provision for lumbar as well as head restraint adjustment. The INDICA VISTA is provided with a set of rear swept stylish head lamps which are biggest in it’s class 2 GENERAL 2.1 GOOD WORKSHOP PRACTICES & SAFETY PRECAUTIONS : n n n n n n exhaust gases. n Always ensure that all the repair / maintenance work carried out should be as per the instructions provided in the workshop manual. Prior to removing or disassembling parts, they must be inspected carefully to isolate the cause Use protective clothing, apron, hand gloves, and safety shoes while working in the workshop. Do not wear watch, rings and belt while serving the vehicle. Keep your work area, equipment and tools clean at all times. Make sure you use the proper tool for the job and use it the right way. The improper tool or its incorrect use can damage the part you are working on or cause injury or both. Never keep the tools on the floor/vehicle. The tools should be kept in the tool box after use. Cover fenders, seats, steering wheel and any other parts those are likely to get scratched/soiled before starting any service work (Fig. 1). Fig. 2 for which the service is called for (Fig. 2). n All the reusable dismantled components must be kept in a clean enamel coated white tray sequentially in an orderly manner to facilitate their Fig. 1 n While servicing the vehicle in engine running condition make sure that the gear shifting lever is in neutral position and parking brake is fully applied. Never run the engine without proper ventilation and adequate means of getting rid of Fig. 3 accurate and proper reinstallation (Fig. 3). n n Never reuse the parts like oil seals, gaskets, packing, O-rings, locking washers, split pins, self locking nuts and certain other parts. Plug the ports / openings of aggregates such as FIP / Injectors, TMC, etc., whenever removed from the car. 3 GENERAL n For correct reinstallation of vacuum fuel hoses attach tag describing the correct positions (Fig. 4). n For vehicles equipped with fuel injection systems do not disconnect the fuel line between the injector and the fuel pump without releasing the fuel pressure or fuel can be sprayed out under pressure (for diesel). Precaution for Catalytic Converter (MPFI Petrol Engine) : Caution : If large amount of unburnt fuel goes into the converter, it may overheat and create a FIRE hazard. To prevent this, observe the following precautions : n n n Fig. 4 n n n Make sure only the branded lubricants, coolant, corrosion protection coatings and sealants are used. Check all the lines for leaks related to the systems like fuel, oil, coolant, vacuum, exhaust and brakes after servicing (Fig. 5). Fig. 5 4 Use only unleaded gasoline. Engine compression checks should be carried out within the shortest possible time. If necessary then only conduct a spark jump test within the shortest possible time. Do not run the engine when the fuel tank is nearly empty to avoid engine misfire and damage to catalytic converter. NOTE : For details on the catalytic converter precautions please refer to exhaust system of this manual. GENERAL disconnecting and connecting coupler to avoid electronic parts damage (Fig. 7). 2.2 PRECAUTION FOR ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT SERVICE : n Disconnect the negative cable of the battery while servicing the electrical parts that do not require battery power and insulate the negative terminal n n n n Do not touch the electrical terminals of parts which use microcomputers (e.g. electronic control units like ECM etc.) to avoid damage to these parts from static electricity from your body (Fig. 8) Always use the correct voltmeter, ohmmeter for taking measurement to avoid damage to the electronic control unit and sensors. Make sure to insert the probe from wire harness side of the connector for taking measurement. Make sure the connector halves are mating Fig. 6 properly (Fig. 6). n n While removing the battery first disconnect the negative cable and then the positive cable. While reinstalling the battery, first connect the positive cable and then negative cable. Fig. 8 Be sure to turn the ignition switch off before properly and terminals seating precisely in the connector body (Fig. 8) n n n Dirt / corroded terminals result in improper contact. The terminals should be cleaned carefully. Improper contact pressure between mating terminals disturbs the connectivity between them. Replace the damaged connector body to avoid exposure of the terminals in case of inadequate contact pressure. Fig.7 5 GENERAL n Ensure proper connection between the terminal to the wire. Rectify the loose connection by repairing / replacing the wire harness (Fig. 9) Fig. 9 n n 6 Worn out insulation of the wire may result in short circuit. Avoid water entering the connectors. GENERAL 2.3 LIFTING, JACKING, TOWING POINTS FRONT JACKING POINTS USING THE TWO POST LIFT Make sure you follow the manufacturer’s instructions while lifting the car on two post lift as shown in (Fig10). Fig. 11 REAR JACKING POINTS Fig. 10 Always ensure vehicle balance in service while applying two post lift to under body. Care should be taken that the two post lift arm is not in contact with the bracket, brake or fuel pipes etc. Before servicing, make sure to lock the lift after the vehicle is lifted up. Following fig shows the front and the rear jacking points by two post lift Fig. 12 7 GENERAL USING THE FLOOR JACK: TOWING THE VEHICLE : (Fig. 14) Use the jacks at the locations as shown in the figs. 13 a, 13 b Fig. 14 Fig. 13 a n n n n n n Fig. 13 b Do not apply the jack against any part which may get deformed. If front end or rear end of the vehicle is to be jacked ensure the wheels on ground and the parking brake is applied. 8 For towing a car, the best way is to use a wrecker. Alternatively use a rigid tow bar. Avoid using a flexible cable or rope as your car may crash into the car towing your car when it stops suddenly. Switch ‘ON’ the hazard warning signals of both the cars to warn other road users. Where possible, keep the engine idling so that power steering assistance and brake vacuum are available. Limit the speed to 20-30 Kmph. In case of brake failure, use the parking brake to control the car. GENERAL REAR TOW HOOK : (Fig. 15) n Boltable tow hook is provided in the toolkit. n Remove cover on rear bumper. n Bolt the tow hook (ensure proper fitment). n n 2.4 JACK AND TOOL BAG LOCATION IN VEHICLE: Whenever tow hook is not required unscrew the tow hook and keep it in toolkit. Press the cover to close the hole for tow hook in rear bumper. Fig. 16 (Near spare wheel) 1. JACK LOCATION : 2.
