Tata Tigor BS VI 2020 Safety Features User Manual

Introduction

A wonderful car that stresses safety while also providing flair and performance is the Tata Tigor BS VI 2020. The Tata Tigor BS VI 2020 makes sure you can have a safe and secure driving experience with its improved safety features. This vehicle is equipped with cutting-edge technology and durable design features to keep you and your passengers safe on the road. The Tata Tigor BS VI 2020 has dual front airbags as one of its standout safety features, which are crucial in protecting the driver and front passenger in the case of an accident. These airbags immediately inflate upon impact, lowering the possibility of harm and adding an additional layer of protection.

A sophisticated Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) with Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD) is also included in the Tata Tigor BS VI 2020. By eliminating wheel lock-up and retaining steering control in emergency braking circumstances, this technology enables the best possible braking performance. The ABS and EBD improve overall stability by ensuring that the wheels continue to turn during braking, which lowers the likelihood of accidents. The Tata Tigor BS VI 2020 has dual-function LED daytime running lights (DRLs) that increase visibility to other drivers in order to improve visibility and lower the risk of accidents. The car is more visible during the day thanks to these DRLs, increasing overall traffic safety.

Safety Features

Important Information
In this Owner’s Manual, you will find the text under the heading “WARNING” and “NOTE” which highlights important information. Pay particular attention to these highlighted messages.

NOTE
Indicates additional information that will assist you in gaining the optimum benefit and care for your vehicle.

WARNING
Indicates procedures or information that must be followed precisely in order to avoid the possibility of severe personal injury and serious damage to the vehicle.

Safe Driving
Safety consciousness not only ensures your safety and the safety of other road users, but it also helps to reduce the wear and tear on your vehicle.

Safe driving depends on:

  • How quickly you make decisions to avoid an accident.
  • Your ability to concentrate.
  • How well you can see and judge ob-jects.
  • How well familiar you are with your vehicle controls and its capabilities.

NOTE
Fatigue is a result of physical or mental exertion that impairs judgment. Driver fatigue may be due to inadequate sleep, extended work hours, strenuous work or non-work activities or combination of other factors. Take rest at regular intervals.

Safety Tips

  • Always take into account the road conditions, weather conditions, vehicle 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.
  • Program radio presets with the vehicle parked, and use your programmed presets to make radio use quicker and simpler.

Driving through water
Do not drive through flooded areas. Judge the depth of water before driving through it. Otherwise, water may enter the vehicle interior or the engine compartment. If at all the situation demands that you have to drive through water then;

  • Keep engine in higher RPM and crawl the vehicle in low gear.
  • Flowing or rushing water creates strong forces. Driving through flowing water could cause the vehicle to about trying to drive through flowing water.
  • Lightly apply the brake pedal to dry the liners until the brakes work normally once you are out of water.

WARNING
Do not attempt to start the engine if vehicle gets flooded due to water. Tow the vehicle to a safe place. Contact a nearest TATA MOTORS Authorised Service Centre.

Driving on a rainy day

  • Check wiper blades, lights and brakes for proper functioning and condition.
  • Check the tyre treads depth, the con-dition of the tread and tyre.
  • Avoid harsh braking and sharp turns. It may cause loss of control and lead to a skid.
  • For slowing down, shift to lower gears and brake gently.
  • Keep lights ‘ON’ if visibility is poor.

Driving on wet roads
On wet road or during light showers, “Aquaplaning” can occur. “Aquaplaning” is the loss of direct contact between the road surface and the vehicle’s tires due to a water film forming between them. Steering or braking the vehicle can be very difficult, and loss of control can oc-cur. There is no hard and fast rule about aquaplaning. The best advice is to slow down when the road is wet.

NOTE
If you have driven for a long time in heavy rain without braking, there may be a delayed reaction from the brakes when braking for the first time. You have to press the brake pedal more firmly. Maintain a greater distance from the vehicle in front.

Night driving

  • Ensure that all lights are working and windshield, window glasses are clean.
  • Drive more slowly at night than in the daytime, as the visual range is restricted at night. Maintain a speed such that you can stop within illuminated distance of head lamps.
  • Do not use the high beam unless in-evitable. It may dazzle the driver of the oncoming vehicle, thus causing an accident.
  • Use head lamp main/dip beam to alert other road users on turns/cross roads etc.
  • Use side indicators for lane change or turning.

Driving on gradients
When climbing gradient, the vehicle may begin to slow down and show a lack of power. If this happens, shift to a lower gear and apply power smoothly so that there is no loss of traction. When driving down a hill, the engine braking should be used by shifting into a lower gear. Do not drive in neutral gear or switch off the engine.

WARNING
On long and steep gradients you must reduce the load on the brakes by shifting early to a lower gear. This allows you to take advantage of the engine braking effect and helps avoid overheating of service brakes resulting in reduced braking efficiency.

Driving on highway
Stopping distance progressively, in-creases with vehicle speed. Maintain a sufficient distance between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead. For long distance driving, perform safety checks before starting a trip and take rest at certain intervals to prevent fatigue.

Seat Belts
This section of user manual describes your Vehicle’s seat belt, airbag and Child restraints system. Please read and follow all these instructions carefully to minimise risk of severe injury or death.

  • Seat belts are the primary restraints system in the vehicle. All occupants, including the driver, should always wear their seat belts to minimize the risk of injury. Sit back and adjust (if equipped), the seat. Make sure that your seat is adjusted to a good driving position and the back of the seat is up-right.
    Buckling the shoulder seat belt
  • Grasp the tongue then slowly pull out the seat belt over the shoulder and across the chest. When the seat belt is long enough to fit, insert the tongue into the lock buckle until you hear a “CLICK” which indicates that the seat belt is securely locked.
  • Position the lap portion of seat belt across your pelvic bone (hips), below your abdomen. To remove slack, pull up a bit on the shoulder seat belt. To loosen the lap portion seat belt if it is too tight, tilt the tongue and pull on the lap seat belt. A snug seat belt re-duces the risk of sliding under the seat belt in a collision. Ensure that the seat belt running over the body (shoulder segment and lap segment) does not have any twist. Twisted seat belt may not offer effective protection when required.

Releasing the seat belt
To release the seat belt, push the red button on the lock buckle. The seat belt will automatically retract to its stowed position. If necessary, slide the tongue down the webbing to allow the seat belt to retract fully.

Fixed rear centre lap seat belt

  • When buckling, make sure you hear a click confirming that the tab is latched into the seat belt lock. To tighten it, pull the loose end through the buckle until the seat belt is com-fortably adjusted around the pelvic bone (hips).

WARNING

  • Each seating position and seat belt assembly must be used by one occupant. It is not recommended to put a seat belt around a child, being carried on an occupant’s lap.
  • Be careful not to damage or tamper the seat belt webbing or hardware. Inspect the seat belt system periodically, checking for cuts, frays, or loose parts. A frayed or torn seat belt could rip apart in a collision and leave you with no protection.
  • If the seat belt webbing or hardware is damaged, get it replaced immediately at TATA Motors Authorized service centre.
  • Do not insert any items such as coins, clips, etc. into the seat belt buckles, and be careful not to spill liquids into these parts. If foreign materials get into a seat belt buckle, the seat belt will not work properly.
  • Do not wear seat belts over hard, sharp or fragile items in clothing, such as pens, keys, spectacles etc.
  • Do not use any accessories on seat belts or modify in any way the seat belt system. Devices claiming to improve occupant comfort or repositioning the seat belt, can reduce the protection provided by the seat belt and increase the chance of serious injury in a collision.

Seat Belts with Pre – tensioner
You can use pre-tensioner seat belts in the same manner as ordinary seat belts. The seat belt pre-tensioner system works in conjunction with the SUPPLEMENTARY RESTRAINTS SYSTEM (SRS-Airbags). In the event of a collision, as may be necessary, pre-tensioner tightens the seat belt so that it fits the occupant’s body more snugly. When pre-tensioner activates, there could be some noise and release of smoke. This is normal and there are no health hazards or fire risk.

WARNING
In a collision, the pre-tensioner seat belt assembly mechanisms becomes hot during activation. Do not touch the pre-tensioner seat belt assemblies for several minutes after they have been
activated.

If the vehicle has been involved in a collision, get it inspected immediately at authorised TATA MOTORS SERVICE Center.

Seat Belt with Load Limiter
You can use the load limiter seat belts in the same manner as ordinary seat belts. The seat belt load limiter system works in conjunction with the SUPPLEMEN-TARY RESTRAINTS SYSTEM (SRS-Air-bags). In the event of a collision, as may be necessary, load limiter reduces the load on the rib cage region of the occupant. If the vehicle has been involved in a col-lision, get it inspected immediately at Authorised TATA MOTORS SERVICE Center.

Use of seat belts for pregnant woman

  • WARNING
  •  
  •  Pregnant woman must wear a correctly positioned seat belt. It is safer for mother as well as unborn child.
  • Pregnant woman should wear the lap part of the seat belt across the pelvic bone (hips) and as snug across the hips as possible. Keep the seat belt low so that it does not come across the abdomen. That way the strong bones of the hips will take the force if there is a collision.

Tata Tigor BS VI 2020 Safety Features User Manual-02

Seat belt warning lamp Tata Tigor BS VI 2020 Safety Features User Manual-03
The seat belt warning lamp reminds you to fasten the seat belt.

  • If the driver does not fasten seat belt, seat belt reminder lamp will blink and a buzzer will sound for pre-defined duration until the driver’s seat belt is buckled.
  • If front passenger seat is occupied by adult and does not fasten seat belt, seat belt reminder lamp will blink and a buzzer will sound for pre-defined duration until the front passenger seat belt is buckled.
  • If this system is also provided for other than Front row seats, applicable above warnings will appear until seat belts are buckled.
  • If front passenger seat is occupied by child, system may detect occupancy and warn with front passenger seat belt warning. It is not taken to mean child can occupy front passenger seat and use seat belt. Please refer CRS section for recommended seating position.

NOTE
Using unauthorized after-market seat cover may affect function of occupant sensor. TATA MOTORS does not recommended any non validated seat covers on seats.

Child Restraint System (CRS)
TATA MOTORS strongly recommends the use of Child Restraint Systems (CRS) for all children up to age of 12 years and to be placed at recommended positions only. Children travelling without recommended CRS and seated at other positions may face serious injuries in case of a collision. CRS can be installed in the vehicle using seat belts and/or ISOFIX only (if equipped) or ISOFIX with Top Tether (if equipped). The harness system of CRS holds the child in place, and in a collision, acts to keep the child positioned in the seat and reduce the risk of injuries.
All children below age of one year must always ride in a rear-facing infant CRS. Keep children above age of one year, in a forward-facing CRS with a harness un-til they reach the size or weight limit al-lowed by your CRS manufacturer. Once your child outgrows the forward-facing CRS, your child is ready for a booster seat.

Selection and installation of CRS:
Always select the CRS that complies with latest safety standards (AIS072 / ECE R44). The CRS are classified according to the child’s size, height and weight. Select the appropriate CRS for your child. Ensure that the CRS is securely installed in the vehicle and subsequently child fits properly in it and wears harness of CRS. For installation, please refer CRS manufacturer’s instruction manual.

WARNING
If your vehicle is equipped with a Mfront passenger Airbag (PAB) and does not have PAB deactivation switch, do not install a rear-facing CRS in the front passenger seat. If the PAB inflates, a child in a rear facing CRS could be seriously injured or killed.

If you install a CRS in the rear seat, slide the front seat far enough forward so that the child’s feet do not touch the front seatback. This will help avoid injury to the child in the event of a collision.

NOTE
Children could be endangered in a collision if their CRS is not properly secured in the vehicle. Be sure to secure the child in the restraint system according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

WARNING
Do not use an infant carrier or a child safety seat that “hooks“ over a seatback, it will not provide adequate protection in a collision.

After a collision, we recommend to get seat belts, seats, ISOFIX and top-tether anchorages (as may be applicable) investigated at TATA MOTORS Authorised service centre.

NOTE
A CRS in a closed vehicle can become very hot. To prevent burns, check the seating surface and buckles before placing your child in CRS.

WARNING

  • Do not leave unattended children in your vehicle.
  • Do not modify CRS in any way.
    NOTE
  • Do not install a booster seat or a booster cushion with only the lap strap of the seat belt.
  • Do not install a booster seat or a booster cushion with a seat belt that is slack or twisted.
  • 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.
  • Make sure that your children sit in an upright position.
  • 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 leave any toys or other objects loose in the CRS or on the seat while the vehicle is in motion.

Each CRS should be used for one child only.
When PAB deactivation switch (if provided) is turned ‘OFF’, make sure ‘PAB’ operational status lamp illuminates with ignition ‘ON’, indicating that the passenger airbag is NOT operational. If the airbag SRS warning indicator in the instrument cluster illuminates continuously, it means that there is malfunction in the system. Remove the CRS from front passenger seat and contact your TATA MOTORS authorised service center.

Tata Tigor BS VI 2020 Safety Features User Manual-05

NOTE

Supplementary Restraint System (SRS) (Airbags) 
The airbag ‘SRS’ system comprises of the following components depending upon the provided safety features in your vehicle.

  • Seat belt Pre-tensioners
  • Seat belt with load limiters
  • Driver Airbag
  • Front Passenger Airbag
  • Airbag ‘SRS’ ECU (Electronic Control Unit)
  • Collision Sensors
  • SRS wiring harness
  • SRS Warning lamp

The System is active when ignition switch is in the “ON” position or the ignition mode is “ON”. Airbags are designed to inflate in severe collisions. In the event of a collision, the collision sensors will detect signals, and if the Airbag ECU judges that the signals represent a severe collision, will trigger the airbags. The inflated Airbags provide a cushion to the occupants. The Airbag inflates and deflates so quickly that you may not even realize that it has activated. The Airbag will neither hinder your view nor make it harder to exit the vehicle. Airbag inflation is virtually instantaneous and occurs with considerable force, accompanied by loud noise and smoke, which is normal. The inflated airbag, together with seat belts, limit the movement of an occupant, thereby reducing the risk of injury. When an airbag inflates, you may see some smoke-like particles.

The particles are a normal by-product of the process that generates the non-toxic gas used for airbag inflation. These airborne particles may irritate the skin, eyes, nose, or throat. If you have skin or eye irritation, rinse the area with water. For nose or throat irritation, move to fresh air. Also sometimes the smoke can cause breathing problems, in such cases, it is recommended to get fresh air promptly. After inflation, airbag provides a gradual cushioning effect for the occupant thereafter deflates. It is not advisable to drive your vehicle after the airbags have been deployed. If you are involved in another collision, the airbags will not be in place to protect you. Tata Tigor BS VI 2020 Safety Features User Manual-06

NOTE

  • The above image is for reference purpose only reduce prolonged exposure to the smoke and powder released by the inflating Airbag.
  • Do not touch the Airbag container’s internal components immediately after an Airbag has inflated. The parts that come into contact with an inflating Airbag may be very hot.
  • Always wash exposed skin areas thoroughly with lukewarm water and mild soap.

The driver airbag is mounted in the centre of the steering wheel. The front passenger airbag is located inside the dashboard in front of the passenger seat. The vehicle fitted with the airbags have suitable indications on steering wheel and on dash board. The word ‘AIRBAG’ is embossed on the airbag covers.

WARNING

  • Even in vehicles with Airbags, you and your passengers must always wear the seat belts provided. In order
  • ALWAYS use seat belts and CRS –during every trip and at all times. Even with airbags, you can be seriously injured or killed in a collision if you are not wearing seat belt properly or not wearing seat belt when airbag inflates.
  • You and your passengers should never sit or lean unnecessarily close to the Airbags.
  • Move your seat as far back as possible from front Airbags, while still maintaining control of the vehicle.
  • All occupants should sit upright with the seatback in an upright position, centred on the seat cushion with their seat belt on, legs comfortably extended and their feet on the floor until the vehicle is parked and the engine is turned off.
  • If an occupant is out of position during collision, the rapidly deploying Airbag may forcefully contact the occupant causing serious or fatal injuries.
  • Do not allow the front passenger to place their feet or legs on the dashboard.
  • Do not allow the passenger to ride in the front seat when the front passenger Airbag OFF indicator is illuminated.

WARNING

  • Never place your arm over the airbag as a deploying airbag can result in serious arm fractures or other injuries.
  • 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 Airbags.
  • Do not place or stick any item/s in the vehicle, except at designated locations (such as utility bins, cup/bottle holders, boot space etc). Loose items may act as a projectile during a collision and cause severe to fatal injuries.
  • Please be aware that any unsecured item in your vehicle, such as your pet, unsecured CRS or a laptop, can become a potential hazard in the event of a collision or sudden stop, causing injuries to occupants in the vehicle.
  • Coat hooks ( if provided), must be used only for that purpose. Never hang other items on to those hooks. This could affect deployment of the Airbags, and may lead to severe to fatal injuries.
  • ALWAYS contact your TATA MOTORS authorised service centre if the vehicle is damaged, even if airbag has not inflated.
  • ALWAYS contact your TATA MOTORS authorised service centre if any part of an airbag module cover shows sign of cracking or damage.

WARNING
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:

  • The SRS warning lamp does not turn ‘ON’ when the ignition switch is placed in the ‘ON’ position for few seconds.
  • The SRS warning lamp stays ‘ON’ after illuminating
  • The SRS warning lamp comes ‘ON’/stays ‘ON’ while the vehicle is in motion.
  • The SRS warning lamp blinks when the engine is running.

We recommend the customer to immediately visit TATA MOTORS authorised service centre and get the SRS system inspected if any of the above conditions occur.

WARNING

  • 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.
  • Fitment of bull bars, seat covers on seats with airbags etc, is strictly prohibited, unless authorised by TATA MOTORS. This will affect the intended performance of SRS.
  • If you need to make any modifications to accommodate any disability you may have, please contact your Authorized TATA MOTORS Dealer for necessary guidance.
  • Do not tamper with SRS in any way. This will lead to unexpected performance of system and may cause serious injury or death.

Airbag Warning sticker on front passenger Sun visor Tata Tigor BS VI 2020 Safety Features User Manual-09The Airbag Warning Symbol on sun visor reminds extreme hazards associated with the use of rearward-facing child restraint on front passenger seat during airbag deployment. It is not taken to mean child can occupy front passenger seat and use seat belt. Please refer CRS section for recommended seating position for children.

WARNING
Never use a rearward facing child restraint on a seat protected by an active Airbag in front of it, Death or serious injury to the child can occur.

Airbag Deployment Conditions

When front airbags (if equipped) should not deploy?
Minor frontal collision: Seat belt (if worn), offers adequate occupant protection in low severity collisions. The air-bags are triggered only when there is a collision severe enough to trigger the air-bags. Deployment of frontal airbags is not beneficial in low severity collisions.

Side collision: During a side collision, occupants tend to move sideways. Therefore, deploying frontal airbags in such situations will not benefit the occupants.

Rear collision: During a rear collision, occupants tend to move (rearwards) away from frontal airbags. Therefore, deploying frontal airbags in such situations will not protect the occupants. Head restraints and seat belts provide occupant protection during a rear collision.

Rollovers collision: During a rollover collision, unbelted occupants may float inside the passenger compartment. This will increase the risk of injuries and may prove to be fatal. Wearing seat belts pro-vide highly effective occupant protection during rollover collision. Front airbags, are not designed to deploy in a rollover as frontal airbags cannot offer any protection in rollover collision.

When front airbags deploy with mi-nor or no visible vehicle damage?
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 ex-treme/rare conditions; of rough road driving, running into a curb or hitting other fixed objects; the airbags may de-ploy depending upon the severity of collision. In some of these conditions, dam-age to the vehicle may be minor or not be readily visible.

When front airbags not deploy, even with exterior visible vehicle damage?
The airbags are triggered only when there is a collision severe enough to trig-ger 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.

Child Lock (if equipped)Tata Tigor BS VI 2020 Safety Features User Manual-10

Both the rear doors of the vehicle are provided with a child proof lock. Push the lock lever located on vertical face of the door downward before closing the door. The door which has been locked by activating the child lock cannot be opened from inside, it can be opened only from the outside.

NOTE

  •  Lift the lock lever upward to deactivate the childproof lock when not required.
  • Child safety lever to be used for safety of child for preventing them to open rear door while seating in passenger seat to avoid accident while vehicle is running.

Anti-Theft Device-Immobilizer/ PEPS
Immobilizer system is designed to pre-vent vehicle theft by electronically disabling the engine ignition system. The engine can be started only with vehicle’s original Immobilizer ignition key which has an electronic identification programmed code.

NOTE
Use only Flip key, the other should be kept in a safe location. Note down “key Tag no.” information (and keep it safe) which is required while getting new/spare keys. Remember that it is not possible to prepare new/spare keys without the “key Tag number.” Take precaution about Flip key, as without Flip key vehicle cannot be started.

Anti-lock braking system (ABS)Tata Tigor BS VI 2020 Safety Features User Manual-11

ABS regulates brake pressure in such a way that the wheels do not lock when you brake. This allows you to continue steering the vehicle when braking. The ABS warning lamp in the instrument cluster lights up when the ignition is switched on. It goes out when the engine is running.

WARNING

  • If ABS is faulty, the wheels could lock when braking. The steer ability and braking characteristics may be severely impaired. There is an increased danger of skid-ding and accidents.
  • Drive on carefully. Have ABS checked immediately at a TATA MOTORS Authorized Service Centre as soon as possible.

While Braking

  •  In an emergency situation take your foot off the accelerator and press the brake pedal fully. This allows the ABS to regulate braking for you and have steering control along with maximum possible braking.
  • When ABS is active driver will feel brake pedal pulsating and very low motor (ABS) activation noise from engine compartment, which is normal during ABS braking.

WARNING

  • The stopping distance required for vehicles with ABS may be slightly more than conventional brake system but ABS will still offer the advantage of helping you maintain directional control.
  • However, remember that ABS will not compensate for bad road or weather conditions or poor driver judgment. Drive within safety margins taking into consideration into consideration prevailing weather and traffic conditions.

Electronic brake force distribution (EBD)Tata Tigor BS VI 2020 Safety Features User Manual-12EBD monitors and controls the brake pressure on the rear wheels to improve driving stability while braking. EBD provides optimal braking pressure distribution between front and rear wheels to optimize braking distance and to ensure vehicle stability by means of lowering braking pressure increase at rear wheels.

  • If EBD  Tata Tigor BS VI 2020 Safety Features User Manual-12is malfunctioning, the rear wheels can lock, e.g. un-der full braking. This increases the risk of skidding and an accident.
  • You should therefore adapt your driving style to the different handling characteristics. Have the brake system checked immediately at a TATA MOTORS Authorized Service Centre as soon as possible.

WARNING
Electronic Stability Program (ESP) (if equipped) Tata Tigor BS VI 2020 Safety Features User Manual-13

If ESP detects that the vehicle is deviating from the direction desired by the driver, one or more wheels are braked to stabilize the vehicle. The engine output is also modified to keep the vehicle on the desired course within physical limits. ESP assists the driver when pulling away on wet or slippery roads. ESP can also stabilize the vehicle during braking and acceleration.
