WARNING LABELS ATTACHED TO THEVEHICLE

Warning labels attached to yourvehicle bearing this symbolmean: DO NOT touch or adjust

components until you have read the relevantinstructions in the handbook.

Warning labels showing thissymbol indicate that the ignitionsystem utilises very high

voltages. DO NOT touch any ignitioncomponents while the starter switch isturned on!

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::!J\,~:~J~9::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::Your vehicle has a higher ground clearanceand, hence, a higher centre ofgravity thanordinary passenger cars. This will result indifferent handling characteristics.Inexperienced drivers should take additionalcare, particularly in off-road drivingsituations and when performing abruptmanoeuvres on unstable surfaces.

Introduction

VEHICLE IDENTIFICATIONIf you need to communicate with a LandRover dealer, you may be asked to quote theVehicle Identification Number (VIN).

The VIN (and recommended maximum vehicleweights) isstamped on a label fixed to the toppanel above the left hand headlight (viewedfrom the driver's seat). This should alsomatch the VIN recorded in the ServicePortfolio book.

In addition, as adeterrentto car thieves and toassist the police, the VIN isalso stamped on aplate which isvisible through the left side ofthe windscreen.

ABCDE

A. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)

B. Gross vehicle weight (where required)

C. Gross train weight (where required)

D. Maximum front axle load (where required)

E. Maximum rear axle load (where required)

ANTI-THEFT PRECAUTIONSWhile it may be difficultto deter the'professional' car thief, the majority of theftsare carried out by unskilled opportunists.Therefore, take vehicle security very seriouslyand ALWAYS adopt this simple 'four point'drill whenever you leave your vehicle - evenfor just afew minutes:

1. Fully close all the windows (and thesunroof).

2. Remove your valuable belongings (or hidethem out of sight).

3. Remove the starter key.

4. Superlock the vehicle using the remotehandset.

Thieves are attracted by 'vulnerable' vehicles.Even if you have followed the 'four point' drill,there isstill much you can do to make yourvehicle a less inviting target.

BE SAFE - NOT SORRY!

• Park where your vehicle can be easily seenby householders and passers-by.

• At night, park in well lit areas and avoiddeserted ordimly-lit side streets.

• At home, if you have agarage, use it - andNEVER leave the keys in the vehicle.

• Do not keep important documents (orspare keys) in the vehicle - these are a realbonus for the thief.

Introduction

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Remember the breakdownsafety code

If a breakdown occurs while travelling:-

• Wherever possible, consistent withroad safety and traffic conditions,the vehicle should be moved off themain thoroughfare, preferably into alay-by. If a breakdown occurs on amotorway, pull well over to theinside of the hard shoulder.

• Switch on hazard lights.

• If possible, position awarningtriangle oraflashing amber light atan appropriate distance from thevehicle to warn other traffic of thebreakdown. (Note the legalrequirements of some countries).

• Consider evacuating passengersthrough nearside doors onto theverge as a precaution should yourRange Rover be struck by anothervehicle.

Security Card

The security card, supplied with the literaturepack, contains important emergencyinformation. It is ESSENTIAL that you keepthe card safe from theft and ensure that it ispassed to the new owner if you sell thevehicle.

• Key number: This is the number ofthestarter/door key - essential if you everneed to obtain a replacement.

• Emergency key access code: You willneed this code in order to start the vehicleif the handset has been lost or damaged(see 'Emergency key access'in the 'Locks& alarm'section).

• Locking wheel nut number: If your vehiclehas locking wheel nuts, you will have beenprovided with aspecial wheel nut socketto remove them. You will need to quotethis number to obtain a replacementsocket.

• VIN (vehicle identification number): Thisidentity number is unique to your vehicleand is essential proof of its specification.The number can also be found in variouslocations around the vehicle (see' VehicleIdentification'in Section 1).

• Radio security code number: This uniquecode must be entered into the radiowhenever the power supply has beendisconnected. Without this code, the radiounit will not operate (see 'Security code' inthe 'In-Car Entertainment' book).

Never leave the security card inside thevehicle when it is unattended.

Memorise the emergency key access code,or keep the card on your person whiledriving, in case of emergencies.

Locks & alarm

Your vehicle is fitted with asophisticatedelectronic anti-theft alarm and engineimmobilisation system. In order to ensuremaximum security, you are advised to gain afull understanding of the system bythoroughly reading this section of thehandbook.

LOCKING THE VEHICLE AND ARMING THEALARM

You have been supplied with twohandset/keys (numbered 1 and 2). While bothare identical in operation, they transmit twodifferent sets of information (see 'Lazy seats').Replacement handsets are only available froma Land Rover dealer. Up to two furtherhandsets (3 and 4) can also be obtained.

There are four methods for securing yourvehicle:

1. 'Superlocking' using the handset -(recommended high security method).

2. 'Superlocking' using the key.

3. Locking using the handset.

4. Locking using the key.

FOR MAXIMUM SECURITY, ALWAYS'SUPERLOCK' THE VEHICLE USING THE

HANDSET(except when the vehicle isto be locked withpassengers or animals inside).

11


Emergency keysIn addition to the two handsets, you havealso been supplied with two separatekeys. These keys perform the samefunctions as the key part of the handsetand are intended for emergency use only.DO NOT keep the keys inside the vehicle.

The handsetThe radio remote handset has three buttons.By pressing the appropriate button, thehandset can be used either as aconventionalkey, or as a remote handset to either lock or'superlock' the vehicle.

Locks & alarm

P0023

1. Press to release the key, which can thenbe used as aconventional key to operatethe starter switch, glovebox and doorlocks.

P0022

2. Lock button (padlock symbol)

• press once to lock.

• press twice to 'superlock'.

• press and hold to 'lazy lock' (see 'Lazylocking').

3. Unlock button

• press once to unlock.

• press and hold to operate the 'lazy seat'facility (see 'Lazy seats').

Once the security system isarmed, the centrallocking system locks all the doors and thetailgate, the perimetric alarm (protecting thedoors, bonnet and tailgate) isarmed, and theengine is immobilised.

12

• If 'handset superlocking' isactivated, thevolumetric alarm isalso armed (a sensorinside the passenger compartmentmonitors the interior space and activatesthe alarm if an intrusion into thepassenger compartment isdetected).

The volumetric sensor will enter aself-checkmode each time you turn the starter switchoff. It will remain active for 60 seconds, oruntil:

1. The driver's door is opened and closed.

2. The vehicle is locked with the handset orkey.

NOTE: If the sensor fails itsself-check fivetimes consecutively, only the 'perimetric'elements of the security system willbe active(doors, bonnet and tailgate). Any attempt to'superlock' with the handset willresult in'ALARM FAUL T'being displayed on themessage centre and amislock occurring (see'Mislock'). Seek qualified assistance to rectifythe fault.

Switching off the alarm sounderIf the alarm istriggered, it can be turned off inthree ways:

• Press the lock button once.

• Press the unlock button once.

• Turn the key in the driver's door to the'unlock' position (towards the front of thevehicle).

Locks & alarm

70...................{:::::}::::

SUPERLOCKINGIf the vehicle is 'superlocked' (with either thehandset, orthe key), the doors CANNOT beunlocked or opened from inside the vehicle.

For this reason DO NOT superlock the vehiclewith passengers inside.

P0166

Anti-theft alarm indicator lightAfter locking the vehicle, the RED indicatorlight (arrowed in illustration) flashes rapidlyfor ten seconds to confirm that the securitysystem has been successfully armed. After tenseconds, the indicator light adjusts to aslowerfrequency, and then continues to flash as ananti-theft deterrent until such time as thesecurity system is disarmed.

If,while operating the handset (or key), thealarm sounds, this indicates that one of thedoors, the bonnet orthe tailgate is notproperly closed (the message centre displaywill confirm which aperture is not secure).

Although the handset can be successfullyoperated from asignificant distance from thevehicle, when locking it iswise to be closeenough to visually confirm that the doorlocking buttons have dropped into place andthat the indicator light confirms asuccessfullock.

NOTE: Occasional atmospheric conditionscan significantly reduce the effective range ofhandset operation. If this occurs, operate thehandset closer to the vehicle. Inextremecases, it may be necessary to touch thehandset against the radio aerial 'fired' ontoone of the rear side windows.

'Super/ocking' using the handset:Press and release the 'lock' button (1) on thehandset twice (within 1%seconds). After 15seconds you will hear 'superlocking' engage.

If any door, the bonnet ortailgate is left open,amislock will occur (see 'Mislock').

If awindow or sunroof is open, superlockingwill engage immediately, however volumetricprotection will not be activated.

To unlock:Press and release the 'unlock' button (2) onthe handset once.

If the handset is inoperative, the vehicle canbe unlocked by using the emergency keyaccess code (see 'Emergency key access').

Locks & alarm

'Superlocking' using the key:Wherever possible the handset MUST be usedto 'superlock' the vehicle. However, if thehandset is inoperative, the key can be used asfollows:

Turn the key in the driver's door towards therear of the vehicle (and release) twice within11

/ 2 seconds.

NOTE: 'Superlocking'the vehicle using thekey willprovide perimetric protection only volumetric protection (protection of theinterior space inside the vehicle) WILL NOTBE ACTIVEI If any door, the bonnet, or thetailgate is leftopen, amislock willoccur (see'Mislock').

To unlock:Wherever possible use the handset to unlockthe vehicle - press and release the 'unlock'button.

If necessary, the key can be used to unlock a'superlocked' vehicle, but before the enginecan be started, it will be necessary to releasethe engine immobilisation function by enteringthe emergency key access code (see'Emergency key access').


If unattended passengers are to be left inthe vehicle, DO NOT superlock.Unattended passengers should lock thevehicle from inside by pressing down thedriver's door sill button.

If animals are to be left in the vehicle,volumetric protection MUST NOT beactivated - any movement inside thevehicle could trigger the alarm.

DO NOT leave children unattended in thevehicle!

NEVER 'superlock'the vehicle if passengersare to be left inside - 'superlocking'prevents door locks from being operatedfrom INSIDE aswellasoutside the vehicle!

NOTE: If the handset 'lock' button or the doorkey are operated once, the central locking willbe activated, but the alarm willonly be in'perimetric'mode and the doors and locksCAN be opened from the inside. ALWAYS,where possible secure the vehicle by'superlocking'.

'Sill' lockingTo operate the central locking from inside thevehicle, push down either front door sillbutton.The security system will NOT be armed.

NOTE: 'SiII'locking (also known as slamlocking) is NOT possible from outside thevehicle.

Locks & alarm

ENGINE IMMOBILISATIONEngine immobilisation is an important aspectof the Range Rover's security system, andincludes afeature known as 'passiveimmobilisation'. This isdesigned to safeguardthe vehicle from theft should the driver forgetto lock the doors. The engine isautomaticallyimmobilised whenever any of the followingconditions occur.

1. When the vehicle is locked using thehandset or key.

2. Thirty seconds after the starter switch hasbeen turned offAND the driver's dooropened.

3. Ten minutes after the starter switch hasbeen turned off (even if the key remains inthe starter switch and the driver's doorhas not opened).

15


It isvirtually impossible to leave the carunattended orattended without theengine being immobilised automatically.For this reason it is important that alldrivers are fully aware of the following:

The engine is re-mobilised by pressingthe 'unlock' button on the handset orinserting the key in the starter switch.

If the handset is lost ordamaged and failsto operate, the engine must bere-mobilised by entering the emergencykey access code before the vehicle can bedriven (see 'Emergency key access').

Locks & alarm

EMERGENCY KEY ACCESSIf the handset is lost or fails to operate, theengine can be re-mobilised by using the key toenter a unique four digit emergency keyaccess code. The code is recorded on theSecurity Information card and isentered asfollows:

~·:=tJ 1. Using the key, turn the

(as shown) after each turn of the key. It isnow possible to use the key to enter theseparate numerical values of the four digitsthat make up the emergency key access code.


When entering acode:

• ENSURE each key movement iscarried out with care and precisionand turned through the full extent ofits travel.

• After turning the key to either thelock or unlock positions, make sureit is FULLY returned to the centre(vertical) position.

• If you forget your place in thesequence of key operations and,therefore, do not complete acode,open and then shut the door andstart entering the code again (thiswill not count as a failed attempt).

MISLOCKA mislock will occur if:

• Adoor, bonnet or tailgate are left open.

• The key is left in the starter switch.

• An incomplete 'lazy lock' isattempted. Themessage centre will indicate the cause ofamislock e.g. 'SUNROOF BLOCKED'.

If amislock occurs, awarning 'bleep' willsound in which case you should unlock thevehicle, rectify the cause of the mislock andthen re-lock the vehicle.

LAZY LOCKING'Lazy locking' enables you to use the handsetor key to close the windows and sunroof atthe same time as you secure the vehicle.

To operate lazy locking:

1. Ensure the doors, bonnet and tailgate areproperly closed.

2. With the handset - press and hold the'lock' button (press twice and hold on thesecond press if 'superlocking').With the key - turn and hold the key in the'lock' position.

The doors and tailgate will lock and thewindows, followed by the sunroof will close.

NOTE: If a window or the sunroof detects anobstruction, amislock occurs and the lockingsequence will stop. Remove the obstructionbefore trying to 'lazy lock' again.

18

LAZY SEATSThe lazy seat facility isavailable only onvehicles fitted with adriver's seat memory.The facility enables the handsets to be used torecall the pre-set electric seat/mirror positionswhen you UNLOCK the door. The twohandsets are separately identified by differentlabels and by grey and black battery covers key 1 corresponds to driver's seat memory 1,and key 2 to seat memory 2 (see 'Seats').

NOTE: If additional handset/keys have beenobtained (key 3 and key 4), they are notlinkedto the memory seat system.

Press and hold the 'unlock' button on thehandset for 11

/ 2 seconds (the indicator lighton the handset flashes rapidly), and thenrelease. The driver's seat and both mirrors willmove to the positions programmed into therelevant seat memory.

NOTE: 'Lazy seats' will only operate ifvolumetric protection was activated when thevehicle was locked (ie. by 'superlocking' usingthe handset).It will notfunction if the alarm system hasalready been triggered since it was last set,and will be cancelled if adoor is opened, or ifthe vehicle is relocked.

Locks & alarm

AUTO RELOCKAuto relock ensures that, if the vehicle isunlocked accidentally, the vehicle will relockitself automatically after a60 second delay.

Once the 'unlock' button on the handset hasbeen pressed, the alarm system will monitorthe vehicle for 60 seconds. If any of thefollowing occur during this period, the vehiclewill remain unlocked:

• Adoor or the tailgate is opened.

• Interior movement isdetected.

• The key is inserted into the starter switch,or the switch isturned to position '1'.

However, if none of the above has occurredwithin 60 seconds, then the vehicle willautomatically return to its previous 'locked'state.

SEAT BELT SAFETY

Seat belts are life-saving equipment.In a collision, unrestrained passengers canbe thrown around inside the vehicle, orpossibly thrown out of the vehicle, resultingin injury to themselves and to otheroccupants. DO NOT take chances withsafety!

• DO make sure that ALL passengers aresecurely strapped in at all times; even forthe shortest journeys.

• ALWAYS adjust seat belts to eliminate anyslack in the webbing and to ensure thatthe diagonal belt passes across theshoulder without slipping off or pressingon the neck.

• ALWAYS fit the lap belt strap as low onthe hips as possible (never across theabdomen).

• DO NOT slacken the webbing by pullingthe belt away from the body - to be fullyeffective, the seat belt must remain in fullcontact with the body at all times.

• DO have seat belts checked if the vehicle isinvolved in an accident.

• DO NOT allow occupants to travel with theseat backs reclined steeply rearwards.Optimum benefit is obtained from the seatbelt with the seat back angle set to 15degrees from the upright (vertical)position.

42

• DO use the seat belts to secure large itemsof luggage that are to be carried on theseats - in the event of an accident,insecure items become flying missilescapable of causing serious injury.

• DO NOT fit more than one person into aseat belt, or fit aseat belt that istwisted orobstructed in any way that could impedeits smooth operation.

• DO NOT allow foreign matter (particularlysugary food ordrink particles) to enter theseat belt locks; such substances canrender the seat belt locks inoperative.

• Pregnant women should ask adoctor foradvice about the safest way to wear seatbelts.

Ensure that all seat belts are worn correctly- an improperly worn seat belt increases therisk ofdeath orserious injury in the event ofan accident.

The airbag supplementary restraint system(SRS) isdesigned to add to the overalleffectiveness ofthe seat belts, it DOES NOTreplace them. SEAT BELTS MUST ALWAYSBE WORN.

Seat belts

P0041

Upper anchorage adjustmentThe height of the seat belt upper anchoragecan be adjusted for comfort AND safety. Pressand hold the button (arrowed in the upperillustration) to raise or lower.

For maximum benefit, the seat belt shouldalways be worn with the webbing crossing theshoulder MIDWAY BETWEEN THE NECK ANDTHE EDGE OF THE SHOULDER.

Ensure that the anchorage has 'clicked' intoone of the locked positions before driving.

43

Fastening inertia reel seat beltsDraw the belt over the shoulder and acrossthe chest, and insert the metal tongue plateinto the lock nearest the wearer; a 'click'indicates that the belt issecurely locked.

Seat belts are designed to bear upon the bonystructure of the body (pelvis, chest andshoulders) and can only be worn safely withthe seats in the normal UPRIGHT position; DONOT allow the front passenger to travel withthe seat steeply reclined. (See also 'Seatingpositions' in the 'Airbag SRS'section ofthishandbook).

Fastening lap beltsThe rear central seating position is fitted witha lap belt. To adjust, pull the slider (arrowed inillustration) along the belt and feed thewebbing through the buckle until the belt iscomfortably tight. Insert the metal tongueplate into the lock nearest to the centre of thevehicle.

Seat belts

SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONERSThe seat belt pre-tensioners activate inconjunction with the airbag SRS and provideadditional protection in the event ofaseverefrontal impact on the vehicle (see 'AirbagSRS'). The pre-tensioners automaticallyretract the seat belts fitted to the front seats.This reduces any slack in both the lap anddiagonal portions of the belts, therebyreducing forward movement of the belt wearerin the event of asevere frontal collision.

The airbag SRS warning light on theinstrument panel will alert you to anymalfunction of the seat belt pre-tensioners.

If the pre-tensioners have been activated, theseat belts will still function as restraints, andmust be worn in the event that the vehicleremains in adriveable condition.

NOTE: The seat belt pre-tensioners willNOTbe activated byrear, side orminor frontalimpacts.

44


The seat belt pre-tensioners will only beactivated once and then MUST BEREPLACED. Failure to replace thepre-tensioners will reduce theeffectiveness of the vehicle's restraintsystems.

After any frontal impact, the seat beltsand pre-tensioners must be checked and ,

if necessary, replaced. Also, after a periodof 15 years, the pre-tensioners must beexamined and replaced.

In the interests of safety, it isrecommended that removal orreplacement of the front seats, seat beltsand pre-tensioners should only be carriedout by a Land Rover dealer.

Disposing of vehiclesIf you sell your vehicle, be sure to informthe new owner that the vehicle is fittedwith pre-tensioners, and make the newowner aware that the pre-tensioners mustbe examined and replaced by qualifiedpersonnel after a period of 15 years.

If your vehicle isto be scrapped,unactivated pre-tensioners are potentiallyvery dangerous and must be safelydeployed in acontrolled environment byqualified personnel, before avehicle isscrapped.

Seat belts

Infant and child restraintsChildren are more likely to receive injuriesfrom inflating airbags than taller occupants(see 'Airbag SRS'). For this reason, it isrecommended that children should always beseated in the rear of the vehicle in achildsafety seat or restraint system appropriate totheir age and size. A range of safety seatsapproved for use in your vehicle isavailablefrom your Land Rover dealer.

All infant and child restraint systems aredesigned to be secured in vehicle seats bymeans ofa lap belt or the lap portion ofalap/shoulder belt.

When installing and using any infant or childrestraint system, always follow themanufacturer's instructions. Failure toproperly secure the child restraint system canendanger the child in acollision orsuddenstop and cause injury to other passengers.

The centre rear seating position is fitted with alap belt which can be manually tightened tosecure an infant or child restraint system.Older children should use the lap/shoulderbelt fitted to the outer rear seating positions.

The above symbol affixed to the fascia panelofyour vehicle, warns against the use ofaREAR FACING child seat in the frontpassenger seat. This type of child seat couldcause serious injury to your child in the eventof an airbag deployment.

45

!::!:!!::!:!!::!:!!::!!:!!::!!:!!::!!::::::W"~!~Jij,9!!:!::!!:!::!!:!::!!:!::!!U::!!::!::!!::Infants and children should be restrained inthe rear ofthe vehicle in a child safety seatorrestraint system appropriate to their ageand/or size, and which is approved for usein your vehicle. Always ensure that themanufacturer's fitting instructions arefollowed exactly.

Accident statistics show that children aresafer when properly restrained in the rearseating positions than in the front. However,if it is essential that a child travel in thefront, set the seat fully rearward and seatthe child in an approved, FORWARD FACINGchild seat. DO NOT use a rear facing childseat - an inflating airbag could impact withthe child seat and cause serious injury tothe child.

Seat belts

Caring for seat beltsRegularly inspect the belt webbing for signs offraying, cuts and wear, also paying particularattention to the condition of the fixing pointsand adjusters.

DO NOT bleach or dye the webbing. Clean thewebbing using warm water and non-detergentsoap only; allow to dry naturally and DO NOTretract the belts or use the vehicle until theyare completely dry.

Testing inertia reel seat belts

From time to time carry out the followingtests:

1. With the seat belt fastened, give thewebbing near the buckle aquick upwardpull. The buckle must remain securelylocked.

2. With the seat belt fastened, sit back in theseat and ensure any slack has beenrewound. Then move the upper bodysharply forward from the hips - themechanism must lock automatically andprevent any further unreeling of the belt.

3. With the seat belt unfastened, unreel thewebbing to the limit of its travel. Checkthat unreeling is free from snatches andsnags.

If aseat belt should fail any of these tests,contact your dealer immediately.

Airbag SRS

The airbag SRS (supplementary restraint system) incorporates front and side airbags for both thedriver and front seat passenger.

Provided the front seat occupants are correctly seated with seat belts properly worn, the airbagsprovide additional protection to the chest and facial areas in the event of the vehicle receiving asevere frontal impact, and to the side of the body facing the impact, if asevere side collisionoccurs.

The front airbags are located in the centre pad of the steering wheel and in the fascia panel abovethe glovebox. Side airbags are positioned in the backrest padding on the outward side of bothfront seats (see illustration).

P0404

47

Airbag SRS

To ensure correct deployment of the airbags,it isessential that obstructions are not allowedto intervene between an airbag and theoccupant. The following are examples of thetype of obstructions that could either, impedecorrect operation of the airbags, or jeopardisepersonal safety in the event of an airbagdeployment:

• Accessories attached to an airbag cover.

• Items of hand luggage or other objectsplaced on an airbag cover.

• Feet, knees orany other part of theanatomy in contact with, or in closeproximity to, afront airbag cover.

• Head, arms or any part of the anatomy incontact with, or in close proximity to, aside airbag.

• Items of clothing or cushions draped overthe part ofafront seat containing theairbag.

• Non-approved, seat covers fitted over afront seat (in particular, be aware that seatcovers approved for use with Range Rovervehicles prior to the introduction of sideairbags will NOT be suitable for vehiclesequipped with side airbags! If in doubt,seek advice from a Land Rover dealer).

48

How the airbag SRS worksIn the event of acollision, the airbag controlunit monitors the rate of deceleration inducedby the collision to determine whether theairbags should be deployed.

In the case ofasevere frontal collision, bothfront airbags will be deployed. In the case ofasevere side collision, only the airbag on theimpact side of the vehicle will inflate.However, there may also be impact conditionswhereby one side and both front airbagsdeploy at the same time, orwhere front andside airbags respond separately as a result ofasecondary impact occurring after the initialcollision has taken place.

P0402

Airbag SRS


P0403

Airbag inflation isvirtually instantaneous andoccurs with considerable force accompaniedby a loud noise. The inflated airbag, togetherwith the seat belt restraint system, limit theoccupant's movement, thereby reducing therisk of injury to the head and upper torso.

When an airbag inflates, afine powder isreleased. This is not an indication ofamalfunction, however the powder may causeirritation to the skin and should be thoroughlyflushed from the eyes and any cuts orabrasions of the skin. After inflation, an airbagdeflates immediately. This provides agradualcushioning effect for the occupant and alsoensures that the driver's forward vision is notimpaired.

The airbag SRS is not designed tooperate as a result of rear collisions,minor frontal or minor side impacts, or ifthe vehicle overturns; nor will it operateas a result of heavy braking or drivingover bumps and potholes.

Operation of the airbag SRS isdependententirely on the acceleration ordeceleration forces that are applied to thevehicle's passenger compartment as aresult ofacollision. The circumstancesaffecting different collisions (vehiclespeed, angle of impact, type and size ofobject hit for example), vary considerablyand will affect the rate of acceleration ordeceleration accordingly.

It follows, therefore, that in someinstances, significant superficial damagecan occur to the vehicle without theairbags deploying and, conversely, that inother circumstances, the airbags willdeploy even though the vehicle hasexperienced relatively small amounts ofdamage.

Airbags will only deploy when they arerequired to supplement the restrainingforce of the seat belts.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::W~~:~~~9:j:iii::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::Following inflation, some airbag SRScomponents are hot - DO NOT touch untilthey have cooled.

Airbag SRS

Side airbagsSide airbags are designed to protect thethorax region of the torso and will only deployin the event of asevere side impact. They willNOT inflate as a result of frontal or rearimpacts.

In the event of asevere side collision, theairbag on the impact side of the vehicle breaksthrough the seat covering, rapidly inflating toform acushion between the occupant and theside of the vehicle.

Note that a part of the outer side of the seattrim (identified by the woven 'airbag' label) ismanufactured with aspecially constructedseam which enables the airbag to breakthrough. The manufacture and materials of theseat are critical to the performance of theairbag. For this reason, non-approved seatcovers must NEVER be fitted, and it isrecommended that any repair or replacementto the front seats be carried out by a LandRover dealer (see 'Service information').

Airbag SRS warning lightAwarning light, mounted on the instrumentpack, will alert you to any malfunction whichmight prevent the airbag SRS from operatingcorrectly in the event of an impact. Thesystem should always be checked by adealerif any of the following symptoms occur:

• The warning light fails to illuminate whenthe starter switch isturned to position '11'.

• The warning light fails to extinguish withinapproximately five seconds after thestarter switch isturned to position '11'.

• The warning light illuminates while thevehicle is being driven.

50

NOTE: After the starter switch is turned toposition 'II', the system's diagnostic controlunitchecks its own memory and the warninglightbulb for faults. If a fault is found, thewarning lightwill illuminate.

Seating positionsIn order to provide optimum protection in theevent ofasevere vehicle impact, it isnecessary for the airbags to deploy withconsiderable speed.

An inflating airbag can cause facial abrasionsand other injuries if the occupant istoo closeto the airbag at the time of its deployment.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::!~~:ijl~~:::iii:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::To minimise the risk ofaccidental injuryfrom inflating airbags, seat belts should becorrectly worn atall times. In addition, bothdriver and front seat passenger shouldadjust the seat to provide the maximumpractical distance from the front airbags,and also ensure that a gap is maintainedbetween the upper torso and the side ofthevehicle to enable unobstructed inflation ofthe side airbags.

Airbag SRS

Seating children

It is recommended that children shouldalways be seated in the rear of the vehicle in achild safety seat or restraint systemappropriate to their age and size (see 'Seatbelts').

If it is necessary for achild to travel in thefront, it isessential that the vehicle seat issetfully rearwards and that the child iscorrectlyseated in a FRONT FACING child safety seat,which prevents any part of the child's head oranatomy from coming into close proximitywith the side airbag (note the warning labelshown below).

H2736

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::!~~:ijl~~:iii:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::Under nocircumstances should a rearfacingchildseat beused in the front - an inflatingairbag could impact with the seat causingserious injuryto the child!

51

Service informationAfter a period of time (10 years for frontairbags, and 15 years for side airbags) fromthe original date of registration (ortheinstallation date ofa replacement airbagmodule), some components will need to bereplaced. Note the 'airbag module replacementdate' shown on page 2 of the Service Portfoliobook. To ensure absolute safety, it isrecommended that this work iscarried out bya Land Rover dealer who should stamp andsign the appropriate page of the ServicePortfolio book once the work iscomplete.

In addition, ALWAYS contact your dealer if:

• an airbag inflates

• the front orside of the vehicle isdamaged,even if the corresponding airbag has notinflated.

• any part of an airbag module cover showssigns of deterioration ordamage.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::ii~:ijJ~9:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::DO NOT attempt to service repair, replace,modify or tamper with anypartof the airbagSRS, or wiring in the vicinity of anairbagSRS component; this could cause thesystem to activate, resulting in personalinjury_

Airbag SRS


The components that make up the airbagSRS are sensitive to electrical or physicalinterference, either ofwhich could easilydamage the system and cause inadvertentoperation ora malfunction of any airbagmodule.

For your safety it is recommended thatyou seek the assistance ofa Land Roverdealer to carry out any of the following:

• Removal or repair of any wiring orcomponent in the vicinity of any ofthe SRS components (yellow wiringharness), including: the steeringwheel, steering column, front seats,instrument and fascia panels.

• Installation of electronic equipmentsuch as a mobile telephone,two-way radio or in-carentertainment system.

• Attachment of accessories to thefront or side of the vehicle.

• Modification to the front or side ofthe vehicle.

• Removal or replacement orretrimming ofafront seat or seatcover.

52

Disposing of vehiclesIf you sell your vehicle, be sure to inform thenew owner that the vehicle has an airbag SRS,and make the new owner aware of the airbagmodule replacement date shown on page 2 ofthe Service Portfolio book.

If the vehicle isto be scrapped: uninflatedairbags are potentially very dangerous andmust be safely deployed in acontrolledenvironment by qualified personnel BEFORE avehicle isscrapped.

Refrain from operating a telephone fittedwith its own aerial inside the vehicle (seemain text).

Your vehicle utilises a number of electronicsystems designed to provide you withmaximum comfort, safety and economy.These systems may be affected by the use ofmobile communication equipment inside thevehicle. However, the use of an external aerialwill greatly reduce the likelihood of thisoccu rrence.

For your safety, always note the followingprecautions before fitting or using an in-cartelephone, or any mobile communicationequipment.

• Only use an installation kit incorporatingan aerial external to the vehicle.

• Ensure that the installation iscarried outby acompetent installer.

• Refrain from operating a mobile phonefitted with its own aerial inside the vehicle- the electromagnetic field radiated by thephone may interfere with the vehicle'selectrical systems.

The catalytic converter (if fitted) is easilydamaged through improper use, particularlyif the wrong fuel is used, or if an enginemisfire occurs.

Before starting the engine and driving,ENSURE that you are familiar with theprecautions shown under 'Catalytic converter'later in this section.

In particular, you should be aware that if theengine fails to start, continued use of thestarter may result in unburnt fuel damagingthe catalytic converter.

Starting

1. Check that the handbrake isapplied andthat the gear lever is in 'P' or 'N'.

2. Switch off all unnecessary electricalequipment.

3. Insert the starter key and turn the switchto position '11' and then on to position '111'to operate the starter motor; DO NOTpress the accelerator pedal during starting,and RELEASE THE KEY as soon as theengine is running.

In temperate climates DO NOT operate thestarter for longer than 5 seconds; if the enginefails to start, switch off and wait for 10seconds before re-using the starter. Pleasenote that continued use of the starter willdischarge the battery. In temperate climatesthe battery charging and oil pressure warninglights should extinguish as soon as the engineis running.

90

Cold climatesIn very cold climates the oil pressure warninglights may take several seconds to extinguish.Similarly, engine cranking times will alsoincrease; at -30° C(-22° F) the starter motormay need to be operated continuously for aslong as 30 seconds before the engine willstart. For this reason, ensure that allnon-essential electrical equipment is switchedoff.

Block heatersOnly approved block heaters restricted to amaximum of400 Wshould be used. Blockheaters that exceed this output may damagethe emission control components.

Warming-upIn the interests of fuel economy, it isadvisableto start driving straight away, rememberingthat harsh acceleration or labouring the enginebefore the normal operating temperature hasbeen reached can damage the engine.

After starting, ensure that the handbrake orfootbrake are firmly applied and theaccelerator pedal is not pressed while movingthe gear selector lever from 'N' or 'P',otherwise the vehicle will move immediatelythe selector lever is moved to one of the drivepositions. This is particularly important whenthe engine iscold because the engine will beidling at a faster speed than normal.

Your vehicle is fitted with a catalyticconverter which can be easily damagedthrough improper use, particularly if thewrong fuel is used, or if anengine misfireoccurs.

Before starting the engine ENSURE that youare familiar with the precautions shown under'Catalytic converter' later in thissection.

In particular, you should be aware thatcontinued use of the starter may result inunburnt fuel damaging the catalytic converter.

Starting

1. Check that the handbrake isapplied andthat the gear lever is in neutral CP' or 'N'for automatic transmission).

2. Switch off all unnecessary electricalequipment.

3. Insert the key and turn the starter switchto position' II'. Wait until the glow plugwarning light extinguishes.

4. Turn and hold the key in position '111' tooperate the starter motor; DO NOT pressthe accelerator pedal during starting, andRELEASE THE KEY as soon as the engineis running. If the engine stalls you MUSTreturn the starter switch to position '1'before attempting to restart; the enginewill not start by turning the starter switchfrom position '11'.

Starting & driving

In cold weather, orwhen the battery is in alow state of charge on manual gearboxvehicles, depress the clutch pedal whilestarting and hold it down until the engine isrunning.

In temperate climates DO NOT operate thestarter for longer than 5 seconds; if the enginefails to start, switch off and wait for 10seconds before re-using the starter. Pleasenote that prolonged use of the starter willdischarge the battery.

Cold climatesIn very cold climates the battery charging andoil pressure warning lights may take severalseconds to extinguish. Similarly, enginecranking times will also increase; at -30° C(-22° F) the starter motor may need to beoperated continuously for as long as 30seconds before the engine will start. For thisreason ensure that all non-essential electricalequipment isswitched off.

Warming-upIn the interests of fuel economy, it isadvisableto start driving straight away, rememberingthat harsh acceleration or labouring the enginebefore the normal operating temperature hasbeen reached can damage the engine.

The engine must not be run above fast idlespeed until the oilpressure warning lightextinguishes. This will ensure that theengine and turbocharger bearings areproperly lubricated before being run atnormal driving speeds.

92


Exhaust fumes contain poisonoussubstances which can causeunconsciousness and may even be fatal.

• DO NOT inhale exhaust gases.

• DO NOT start or leave the enginerunning in an enclosed, unventilatedarea.

• If you think that exhaust fumes areentering the vehicle, have the causeinvestigated and correctedimmediately.

Switching offTo avoid the possibility of damaging theturbo-charger bearings through inadequatelubrication, ALWAYS allow the engine to idlefor 10 seconds before switching off. Turn theengine off by returning the starter switch toposition '1' and then position '0' to removekey.

Starting & driving

RUNNING-IN (petrol &diesel models)Proper running-in will have adirect bearing onthe reliability and smooth running ofyourvehicle throughout its life.

In particular, the engine, gearbox, brakes andtyres need time to bed-in and adjust to thedemands of everyday motoring. It is,therefore, essential to drive with considerationfor the running-in process for at least the first500 miles (800 km) and observe the followingadvice:

• LIMIT maximum road speed to 70 mph(110 km/h). Initially, drive the vehicle on alight throttle and only increase enginespeeds gradually once the running-indistance has been completed.

• DO NOT operate at full throttle orallow theengine to labour in any gear.

• AVOID fast acceleration and heavy brakingexcept in emergencies.

EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEMLand Rover vehicles are fitted with emissionand evaporative control equipment necessaryto meet a number of territorial requirements.

In many countries it isagainst the law forvehicle owners to modify or tamper withemission control equipment, or to sanctionthe unauthorised replacement or modificationof this equipment by a repair shop. In suchcases the vehicle owner and the repairer mayboth be liable for legal penalties. It isimportant to remember that all Land Roverdealers are properly equipped to performrepairs and to maintain the emission controlsystem on your vehicle.

93

FUEL ECONOMYFuel consumption is influenced by two majorfactors:

• How your vehicle is maintained.

• How you drive your vehicle.

To obtain optimum fuel economy, it isessential that your vehicle is maintained inaccordance with the manufacturer's serviceschedule.

On automatic gearbox models, driving withthe gearshift in '0' in the HIGH range, but notin 'sport' mode, will provide the best fueleconomy.

Items such as, the condition of the air cleanerelement, tyre pressures and wheel alignmentcan have asignificant effect on fuelconsumption. But above all, the way in whichyou drive isthe most important. The followinghints may help you to obtain even better valuefrom your motoring:

• Avoid unnecessary short, start-stopjourneys.

• Avoid fast starts. Instead, accelerate gentlyand smoothly from rest.

• Do not drive in the lower gears for longerthan necessary.

• Decelerate gently and avoid sudden andheavy braking.

• Anticipate obstructions and adjust yourspeed accordingly well in advance.

• When stationary in traffic, select neutral toimprove fuel economy and air conditioningperformance.

IMPORTANT DRIVING INFORMATION

Instruments &warning lightsBefore driving, it is important to fullyunderstand the function of the instrumentsand warning lights described in section 2.

NOTE: Red warning lights are ofparticularimportance, illumination indicates that a faultexists. If a red lightilluminates always stopthe vehicle and seek qualified assistancebefore continuing.

Vehicle stabilityYour vehicle has a higher ground clearanceand, therefore, a higher centre of gravity thanordinary cars. This will result in differenthandling characteristics. Inexperienced driversshould take additional care, particularly inoff-road driving situations and whenperforming abrupt manoeuvres atinappropriate speeds or on unstable surfaces.

Vehicle heightThe overall height ofyour vehicle exceeds thatof an ordinary car (even when ACCESS rideheight isselected). Always be aware of theheight ofyour vehicle and check the availableheadroom before driving through lowentrances. This is particularly important if thevehicle is fitted with a roof rack or if thesunroof is open.

94

Power assisted steeringThe hydraulic power-assisted steering isequipped with a positive 'centre feel'characteristic, which gives enhanced vehiclestability at high speeds and in cross winds.

Power assistance is progressively applied themore the steering wheel isturned. Forexample: where manual steering effort wouldnormally be greatest (at slow speeds onmaximum lock), power assistance isat itsgreatest. Similarly, where only minimalsteering effort would normally be required (athigh speed with the wheels straight ahead),then power assistance isalso minimal, thusenabling the driver to benefit from apparentlyconsistent steering effort at all times.

NOTE: Power assistance is dependent on theengine running. If the engine is notrunning,greater effort willbe required tosteer thevehicle.

Auxiliary equipment

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::!~~:ijl~~:::iii:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::Do NOT use auxiliary equipment, such as aroller generator, which is driven byonewheel ofthe vehicle, as this could causefailure ofthe gearbox differential. In somecases the vehicle may attempt to drive itselfforward.

CATALYTIC CONVERTERThe exhaust system on most modelsincorporates acatalytic converter, whichconverts poisonous exhaust emissions fromthe engine into environmentally less harmfulgases, thereby reducing atmosphericpollution.

..............................................................................................................

::j:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::W~~:~J~9:J::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::The catalytic converter can be easilydamaged through improper use, particularlyif the wrong fuel is used. For thisreason, itis VERY IMPORTANT that you heed theprecautions which follow:

Fuel

• Use ONLY fuel recommended foryourvehicle.

Starting the engine

• DO NOT continue operating the starterswitch if the engine fails to start after afew attempts (unburnt fuel may be drawninto the exhaust system, therebydamaging the catalyst); seek qualifiedassistance.

• When starting acold engine, DO NOT driveif amisfire issuspected; seek qualifiedassistance.

95

Catalytic converter

Driving

• Provided the engine has reached itsnormal operating temperature, if amisfireissuspected, or if the vehicle lacks powerwhile driving, it may be driven SLOWLY(at risk of damaging the catalyst) to aLand Rover dealer for assistance.

• NEVER allow avehicle to run out of fuel(the resultant misfire could destroy thecatalyst).

• Engines burning excessive oil (blue smokefrom the exhaust) will progressivelyreduce catalyst efficiency.

• On rough terrain, DO NOT allow theunderside of the vehicle to be subjected toheavy impacts which could damage thecatalytic converter.

• DO NOT overload orexcessively rev theengine.

Exhaust system temperatures can beextremely high; DO NOT park on groundwhere combustible materials such as drygrass or leaves could come into contact withthe exhaust system (in very dry weather afire could result).

96

Switching off

• DO NOT switch off the engine while aforward or reverse drive gear isselected.

Vehicle maintenance

• Any engine misfire, loss of engineperformance or engine run-on, couldseriously damage the catalytic converter.For this reason, it isvital that unqualifiedpersons do not tamper with the engine,and that regular systematic maintenance iscarried out by a Land Rover dealer.

• DO NOT run the engine with aspark plugor HT lead removed, or use any device thatrequires an insert into aspark plug.

Fuel

FUEL REQUIREMENTS

On petrol engine models fitted with acatalytic converter, serious damage to thecatalyst will occur if leaded fuel isused!

PETROL ENGINESEngines with a catalytic converter:High compression engines: 95 RONUNLEADED to EN228Low compression engines: 91 RONUNLEADED to EN228

Engines without a catalytic converter:Use 91 RON UNLEADED petrol whereverpossible.

In territories where only LEADED fuel isavailable, USE 95 RON LEADED.

The RON values quoted above are MINIMUMrequirements and can be safely exceeded.Using petrol with a lower octane rating,however, can cause persistent, heavy 'engineknock' (a metallic rapping noise). If severe,this can lead to engine damage.

If heavy engine knock isdetected when usingthe recommended octane rated fuel, or ifsteady engine knocking is present whilemaintaining asteady speed on level roads,contact your dealer for advice.

NOTE: An occasional, light, engine knockwhile accelerating or climbing hills isacceptable.

97

Petrol quality

The RON value (octane rating) and type ofpetroleum (unleaded or leaded), available atgarage forecourts will vary in different parts ofthe world. For example, in most Europeancountries 95 RON unleaded fuel is readilyavailable, but in some parts of the world fuelsupplies may be limited to leaded or loweroctane fuels only.

During manufacture, engines are tuned to suitthe fuel supplies commonly available in thecountry for which the vehicle isdestined.However, if avehicle is later exported to adifferent country, or is used to travel betweendifferent territories, the owner should beaware that the available fuel supplies may notbe compatible with the engine specification. Ifin doubt, seek advice from the territoryconcerned.

Diesel enginesThe quality of diesel fuel (Derv) can vary indifferent countries and only clean, goodquality fuel should be used. It is importantthat the sulphur content of diesel fuel doesnot exceed 0.3%. In Europe all suppliesshould be within this limit, but in other partsof the world you should check with yoursupplier. Ensure that the fuel filter element ischanged at the recommended serviceintervals.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::W~~:~J~9:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::On both petrol and diesel engine vehicles, ifthe fuel tank isaccidentally filled with thewrong fuel, it isESSENTIAL that you contactyour Land Rover dealer BEFORE attemptingto start the engine.

FUEL FILLER FLAPThe fuel filler is located in the rear right-handwing. Press the fuel filler switch (shown inillustration) to open the filler flap.

The fuel filler switch may only be operatedwith the starter key turned to position '0'; itwill not operate when the engine is running.

NOTE: An arrow on the fuel gauge indicateswhich side of the vehicle the fuel filler flap islocated.

Fuel filler capThe fuel filler cap isdesigned to allow the fueltank to vent during the first half turn. Whenremoving, carefully loosen the cap one halfturn until resistance is felt, then pause toenable fuel tank pressure to be released. Oncethe pressure is released (hissing hasstopped), it is safe to fully remove the cap.

When replacing, tighten the cap clockwiseuntil you hear the fuel cap ratchet at leastthree times.

98

To avoid any sudden discharge offuelcaused by excessive airpressure, the cap isdesigned to allow the fuel tank to ventduring the first half turn. DO NOT fullyremove the cap until pressure has beenreleased. The cap should be removed andplaced in the retaining bracket on the rear ofthe flap until refuelling is complete.

Fuel fillingFilling station pumps are equipped withautomatic cut-off sensing to avoid fuelspillage; only fill the tank until the filler nozzleautomatically cuts-off the supply. DO NOTattempt to fill the tank beyond this point orspillage could result due to expansion of thefuel.

On petrol engine vehicles which are designedto operate ONLY on unleaded fuel, the fueltank filler neck will ONLY accept a narrow fillernozzle of the type found on pumps that deliverunleaded fuel.

DO NOT fully fill the tank if the vehicle istobe parked on a slope in direct sunlight orhigh ambient temperature - expansion ofthefuel could cause spillage.

EMPTY FUEL TANKDO NOT RUN THE FUEL TANK DRY!

Inthe case of veh icles fitted with acatalyticconverter, running the fuel tank dry couldcreate an engine misfire capable of damagingthe catalytic converter.

If you have run the fuel tank dry and haverefilled the tank, turn the starter switch toposition '11'. After 4 seconds, switch offandthen return the switch to position '11' for afurther 4 seconds before operating the startermotor; do not press the accelerator pedalduring starting, and RELEASE THE KEY assoon as the engine is running.

In the case of diesel models, if the engine failsto start, qualified assistance will be required toprime the fuel system before the engine canbe restarted.

SAFETY ON THE FORECOURTPetroleum and diesel gases are highlyinflammable and, in confined spaces, arealso extremely explosive. Always takesensible precautions when refuelling:

• Switch off the engine.

• Do not smoke or use a naked flameor light.

• Do not overfill the tank.

MANUAL TRANSMISSIONManual transmission vehicles are equippedwith afive speed main gearbox and atwo-speed transfer box. By using the maingearbox in combination with the transfergears, ten forward and two reverse gear ratiosare available.

Main gearboxThe gear positions for the main gearbox areshown on the gear lever knob. Note that whenthe main gearbox is in neutral, the gear leverisspring-loaded to automatically alignbetween third and fourth gear positions.

Transfer gearboxThe transfer gearbox is operated by pressingthe 'HiILo' switch (illustrated).

• Use the high range for all normal roaddriving and also for off-road driving acrossdry, level terrain.

101

• Use the low range gears in any situationwhere low speed manoeuvring isnecessary, such as reversing atrailer ornegotiating a boulder strewn river bed;also use low range for more extremeoff-road conditions where progress in highrange cannot be maintained.

Selecting 'High' or 'Low' rangeTo make the change between HIGH and LOW,the vehicle must be stationary.

1. With the vehicle stationary and the brakesapplied, depress the clutch and selectneutral.

2. Press the 'HiILo' switch - the 'HiILo'switch indicator light and transfer gearboxwarning light (in the instrument panel)start flashing.

3. When the change iscomplete, both lightsextinguish. If high range has beenselected, the message centre displays'HIGH' momentarily, then extinguishes. Iflow range has been selected, the messagecentre briefly displays 'LOW', after which'L' isdisplayed.

4. Now select the required gear.

DO NOT rush the transfer gearchange.DO NOT release the clutch or move the gearleveruntil the 'Hi/La' indicator light andthetransfer gearbox warning light stop flashing.

Manual transmission


If the clutch isengaged before thetransfer between high and low gears iscomplete, a 'clunk' or grinding sound willbe heard and the indicator light in theswitch will continue to flash. If thisoccurs, depress the clutch, select neutraland attempt the change again.

• If the vehicle is moving when atransfer gear change isattempted,the message centre will display'SLOW DOWN'.

• If the 'HiILo' switch is pressed whenthe gear lever is in any positionother than neutral, 'SELECTNEUTRAL' will appear in the display.

ClutchDO NOT use the clutch pedal as afoot rest. Toprevent unnecessary wear, always keep theleft foot well clear of the clutch pedal exceptwhen changing gear.

NOTE: A foot rest is conveniently positionedto the leftof the clutch.

102

Starting and drivingBefore starting the engine, ensure that thehandbrake isapplied and the gear lever is inneutral.

P0151

Aspring loaded catch built into the handle ofthe gear selector lever restricts movement ofthe lever, thereby preventing inadvertent gearselection. The catch has two pressures:

• the first pressure enables gear changes tobe made within asingle range of gears(High range OR Low range).

• the second pressure enables the selectorto be moved from one range of gears toanother (ie. from High TO Low).

NOTE: Gear selection between 'D'and '3'(High range) or '4' and '3' (Low range) may bemade without pressing the catch.

HIGH RANGE GEARSUse the high range for road driving and alsofor off-road driving across dry, level terrain.The message centre will momentarily display'HIGH' as soon as High range isselected, andthen display the gear selected (eg. '3').

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONVehicles with automatic transmission areequipped with an 'H-gate' gear selectormechanism. This combines the operatingmechanism of both the main gearbox and thetransfer gears, and enables the gear selectorpositions for both the high and low gearranges to be located side by side.

Gear selector leverMove the selector lever forward or back alongthe driver's side of the 'H' to select the highrange of gears. Similarly, by moving the leverto the passenger side, the low range can beselected instead. The 'H-gate' illumination iscolour coded to identify the two ranges: highrange illumination isgreen and low range isamber.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::!~~m~~::H::iii::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::DO NOT attempt to change to LOW rangegears fornormal road driving.

103


LOW RANGE GEARSONLY use low range gears in asituationwhere low speed manoeuvring is necessary,such as reversing atrailer or negotiating aboulder strewn river bed; also use low rangefor more extreme off-road conditions whereprogress in high range cannot be maintained.

When low range isselected, the messagecentre displays 'LOW' momentarily, and then'L' isdisplayed along with the relevant gearselected (eg.'L2').

High/low range change warningAn audible warning will sound whilst achangefrom one gear range to another isattempted.The warning will cease once the change iscomplete orcancelled.

Using the 'H-gate'To make achange from high to low orviceversa, the vehicle must be stationary.

1. Apply the brakes and, with the vehiclestationary, select 'N'.

2. Fully depress the catch built into the handleof the selector lever and move the lever acrossthe cross-piece of the 'H-gate'. On reachingthe required gear range, the 'H'-gateillumination and the transfer gearbox warninglight (in the instrument pack) start to flash,and the audible warning sounds.

3. Wait until illumination of the new gearrange selector positions isconstant and thetransfer gearbox warning light extinguishes(the audible warning will silence and High orLow isdisplayed in the message centre),before selecting the desired gear in the newrange and releasing the brakes.

If the vehicle is moving when atransfer gearchange isattempted, the message centre willdisplay 'SLOW DOWN' and the audiblewarning will sound.

104

If the gear range ischanged and forward orreverse drive engaged without first waiting in'N' for the illumination to stop flashing and theaudible warning to stop, the message centrewill display 'SELECT NEUTRAL' and awarningwill sound - reselect 'N' and wait for rangechange completion before selecting therequired driving gear.

.....................................................................................

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::J##~:~~~~::::iii::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::To avoid personal injury and possibledamage to the transmission, it is essentialto ensure that any change ofgear range isfullycompleted before releasing the brakeand driving, l.e, wait until:

• Illumination of the gear range selectorpositions is continuous.

• The transfer gearbox warning lighthasextinguished.

• The audible warning is silent.

• The message centre displays theappropriate message - 'HIGH' or 'LOW'.


Selector lever positions(high range)

'P' ParkIn this position the transmission is locked toprevent the vehicle from rolling away. SelectONLY with the vehicle stationary.

'R'ReverseSelect ONLY when the vehicle isstationary.

'N' NeutralUse this position when the vehicle isstationary and the engine isto idle for ashortperiod (eg. at traffic lights).

'0' DriveIn high range, select '0' for all normal drivingon good road surfaces; fully automatic gearchanging occurs on all forward gearsaccording to vehicle speed and acceleratorposition.

'3' (tst, 2nd and 3rd gears)Automatic gear changing is limited to first,second and third gears only. In high range,use in congested traffic conditions and fortown driving.

'2' (1st and 2nd gears)Automatic gear changing is limited to first andsecond ratios only. In high range, use whendriving up steep gradients and for negotiatingvery narrow twisting roads. This position alsoprovides moderate engine braking fordescending slopes.

'1' (1st gear only)Use on very severe gradients, particularlywhen towing, and when maximum enginebraking is required.

105

NOTE: If position '2' or '1' is selected from 'D'or '3' while the vehicle is travelling athighspeed in high range, then, depending onvehicle speed, third gear will immediatelyengage. Progressive deceleration willthencause downshifts into second and then firstgear when appropriately lowroad speeds arereached.

Always leave the vehicle with the gearselector in 'P' (Park) position when parked,even when the starter key is notremoved.

Starting and drivingDrivers unfamiliar with the performancecharacteristics of automatic gearboxes shouldthoroughly familiarise themselves with thefollowing instructions before driving.

• Before starting the engine, ensure thatboth footbrake and handbrake are applied.

• After starting the engine, KEEP THEBRAKES APPLIED whilst moving theselector lever to the required driveposition.

• Keep the brakes applied until you areready to move - remember, once adriveposition isselected, an 'automatic' willtend to creep forward (or backward).

• Never 'rev' the engine while selecting aforward or reverse drive gear, orwhile thevehicle isstationary with adrive gearselected - remember, an 'automatic' willmove immediately the accelerator pedal ispressed.


Gear changing in high rangeThe road speeds at which gear changes takeplace vary according to the position of theaccelerator; minimum acceleration will resultin gear changes at low road speeds, whilegreater throttle openings will cause thegearbox to delay gear changes until fasterroad speeds have been reached (therebyincreasing acceleration).

With practice, gear changes can be made tooccur at awide range ofdifferent road speedsdepending on accelerator pedal pressure.

On long inclines, an automatic gearbox willsometimes change back and forth betweengears. This occurs because the transmissiondoes not include a ratio that is precisely rightfor the particular incline and vehicle loadingcircumstances. Excessive gear changing iswasteful of fuel and results in a loss ofmomentum; it can be prevented by selectingthe '3' or '2' positions which limit the gearboxto lower ratios.

'Kick-down'To provide rapid acceleration for overtaking,'kick' the accelerator pedal to the full extent ofits travel in asingle, quick movement (this isknown as 'kick-down'). Up to acertain speed,this will cause an immediate downshift intothe lowest appropriate gear, followed by rapidacceleration. Once the pedal is relaxed, normalgear change speeds will resume (dependenton road speed and accelerator pedal position).

106

MODE SWITCHIn High range, the mode switch is used toselect 'Sport' mode.

In Low range, pressing the same switchselects 'Manual' mode.

Pressing the switch asecond time returns thegearbox to its normal operation.

'Sport' modeWhen accelerating in 'Sport' mode, gearchanging isdelayed to make optimum use ofthe engine's power. Select when increasedacceleration is required, orwhen negotiatinglong inclines ortwisting roads. However, youshould be aware that driving in 'Sport' modewill increase fuel consumption.

To select 'Sport' mode, press the 'Mode'switch once whilst the gearbox is in Highrange (the message centre will display'S'along with the selected gear, eg.'S3').


'Manual'modePress the mode switch whilst the gearbox is inLow range to select 'Manual' mode; thisenables the transmission to function as amanual gearbox, providing maximum vehiclecontrol and engine braking - ideal for use insevere off-road conditions (the messagecentre displays 'LM' along with the selectedgear, eg.'LM3').

NOTE: Changing from High to Low range (orvice versa) willautomatically cancel 'Sport' or'Manual' mode.

Towing for recoveryIf it is necessary for the vehicle to be towed onall four wheels, transfer neutral MUST beselected. (See 'Emergency towing').

107

Braking systems

FOOT BRAKEAs asafety precaution, the hydraulic brakingsystem operates through dual circuits. If onecircuit fails the other will continue to function,but increased brake pedal travel, greater pedaleffort and longer stopping distances will beexperienced.

Brake padsBrake pads require a period of bedding in. Youshould avoid heavy braking except inemergencies for at least the first500 miles(800 km).

Remember that regular servicing isvital toensure that the brake pads are examined forwear and changed periodically to ensure longterm safety and optimum performance.

DO NOT rest your foot on the brake pedalwhile travelling asthismay overheat thebrakes, reduce theirefficiency and causeexcessive wear.

NEVER move a vehicle without the enginerunning because braking assistance may notbe available. The pedal brakes will stillfunction, butmore pressure will berequired.

ALWAYS take particular care when beingtowed with the engine turned off.

If the brake warning lightshould illuminatewhile the vehicle is in motion, bring thevehicle toa haltasquickly astrafficconditions and safety permit and seekqualified assistance before continuing DONOTpump the brake pedal. If the brakepedal is pumped the braking system maylose any remaining assistance available.

HANDBRAKEUnlike most other vehicles, the handbrakeoperates on the rear propeller shaft, and NOTon the road wheels. This may result in slightmovement of the vehicle after the handbrakeisapplied.

Apply the handbrake by pulling back the lever.To release, pull the lever back slightly andhold the release button depressed whileallowing the lever to fully return to its offposition.

DO NOT apply the handbrake while thevehicle is in motion (except in anemergency) asthis could result in loss ofvehicle control and damage to thetransmission.

Do notrelyon the handbrake to operateeffectively if the vehicle has been subjectedto immersion in mud and water. (see'Off-road driving').

Braking systems

ANTI-LOCK BRAKINGThe purpose ofanti-lock braking (ABS) istoallow efficient braking without wheel locking,thereby allowing the driver to retainsteerability and control of the vehicle.

ASS cannot overcome the physicallimitations of stopping the vehicle in tooshort a distance, cornering at too high aspeed, or the danger of aquaplaning, i.e.where a layer of water prevents adequatecontact between the tyres and the roadsurface.

The fact that a vehicle is fittedwith ASSmust never tempt the driver into taking risksthatcould affect his/her safety or thatofother road users. Inall cases, it remains thedriver's responsibility to drive within normalsafety margins, having due consideration forthe prevailing weather andtrafficconditions.

The driver should always take account of thesurface to be travelled over andthe fact thatbrake pedal reactions will be different tothose experienced on a non-ASS vehicle.

ABS incorporates a monitoring system whichchecks that all the electrical components arein working order before each journey and alsoat frequent intervals while the vehicle is in use.The warning lights on the instrument panelare part of this system and it isessential thatthe driver observes these and fullyunderstands their functions - these are fullydescribed in Section 2 of the handbook under'Warning lights'.

DO NOT drive until the redbrake warninglight has extinguished (with the handbrakereleased). If the light stays on or illuminateswhilst driving, this indicates eitheramalfunction of the system or lowfluid levelin the reservoir. In thiscase ASS control isnotavailable. Stop assoon assafetypermits andseek qualified assistancebefore continuing.

ABS in action!Under normal driving conditions (wheresufficient road surface friction exists toreliably bring the vehicle to a halt without thewheels locking), ABS will not be brought intooperation.

However, should the braking force exceed theavailable adhesion between the tyres and theroad surface, then ABS will automaticallycome into operation; brake pedal 'feel' willharden, and the sound of solenoid cyclingmay be heard as the ABS regulates brakingpressure to ensure wheel rotation.

Little further pedal travel will be possible atthis point, but effort on the pedal can bevaried to influence braking while the ABSretains control.

During braking, some vibration may be feltthrough the brake pedal. This isa normalresult of the system regulating brakingpressure. However, frequent vibrationindicates a hazardous surface under the roadwheels and isawarning to the driver to adjustspeed to suit the road surface and trafficconditions.

Braking systems

When ABS stops operating, extra initial pedaltravel will be experienced and the 'feel' of thebrake pedal will revert to its non-ABScondition.

Do notpump the brake pedal at any time asthis will interrupt ABS operation andmayincrease braking distance.

Ensure that there are noobstructionsbeneath the brake pedal which may preventfull travel, i.e. additional floormats.

Brake pedal reactions will be different fromthose experienced on a non-ABS vehicle.

Additional operating information

• Under ABS control, heavy braking on adryroad may produce tyre noise and slightmarking of the road surface. Neither needcause concern.

• Solenoid cycling may sometimes be heardwhen driving on very rough roads orwhile'feathering' (light braking) over irregular orpitted surfaces. This is part of the normalABS function.

• If excessive pedal travel isexperienced,full braking will still be available; push thepedal through the free movement untilresistance is felt, then apply the necessaryforce to obtain braking. However, as soonas safety permits stop the vehicle and seekqualified assistance before continuing.

110

• On soft surfaces such as powdery snow,sand orgravel, and also on very roughsurfaces, braking distances with ABS maybe greater than those achievable with anon-ABS system. This is because thenatural action of locked wheels on softsurfaces isto build up awedge of materialin front of the wheels which assists instopping (however, ABS will continue toprovide better stability and steeringcontrol).

• If the vehicle is brought to rest on asteepslope which has avery low-frictionsurface, the vehicle may slide with thewheels locked because there is no wheelrotation to signal movement to the ABS. Ifthis occurs, momentarily release thebrakes (to permit some wheel rotation),before re-applying them to allow ABS toregain control. Where aslow descent isnecessary, engage a LOW range gear withthe engine running to allow acontrolleddescent (see 'Off-road driving'for furtherinformation).

Traction control

ELECTRONIC TRACTION CONTROLThe purpose of electronic traction control istoaid traction when one wheel on an axle spinswhilst the other still has good grip, e.g, if oneside of the vehicle is on ice and the other is ontarmac. The system works by applying thebrake to aspinning wheel in order to transfertorque to the other side of the axle.

NOTE: Traction control only operates belowapproximately 60 mph (100 km/h).

The instrument panel has atraction controlwarning light (TC) and, when appropriate,traction control messages will also bedisplayed in the message centre.

.............. The warning light illuminates

1111~1~~11111 whenever the system isactive............................. (for a minimum of2 seconds)and isaccompanied by the message centredisplaying TRACTION'. In the unlikely eventthat traction control is used continuously fortoo long (in excess of approximately 1minute), then the control unit shuts down toallow cooling and the warning light flashes forat least ten seconds; this isaccompanied bythe message centre displaying TRACTIONOVERHEAT'.

If there isafault with the system, then thewarning light will illuminate continuously andthe message centre displays TRACTIONFAILURE'. If this occurs, you should contact aLand Rover dealer at the earliest opportunity.

Cruise control


• DO NOT use cruise control onwinding or slippery road surfaces, orin traffic conditions where aconstant speed cannot easily bemaintained.

• ALWAYS switch off the masterswitch when you no longer intend touse cruise control.

• DO NOT rest your foot under theaccelerator pedal while cruisecontrol isengaged - your foot couldbe trapped.

NOTE: On automatic gearbox models,selecting Cruise control while the gearboxis in 'Sport' mode will result in morefrequent and harsher acceleration andgear changing. This isnotrecommended.

112

CRUISE CONTROL (if fitted)Cruise control enables the driver to maintain aconstant road speed without using theaccelerator pedal. This is particularly usefulfor motorway cruising or for any journeywhere aconstant speed can be maintained fora lengthy period.

The cruise control system has three switches:a master switch on the fascia panel and twocontrol switches marked 'SET+' and 'RES'(arrowed in illustration) mounted in thesteering wheel.

To operate

1. Press the master switch (the indicatorlight in the switch illuminates).

2. Accelerate until the desired speed isreached - this must be above the system'sminimum operational speed of 28 mph(45 km/h) for petrol engine models, or31 mph (50 km/h) for diesel enginevehicles.

3. Press the 'SET+' switch to set the vehiclespeed in the cruise control system'smemory. Cruise control will now maintainthat road speed without the need foroperation of the accelerator.

With cruise control operating, speed can beincreased temporarily, e.g. for overtaking, bynormal use of the accelerator. When theaccelerator is released, road speed will returnto the selected cruising speed.

Cruise control

To reduce the cruising speedUse the brake pedal to slow the vehicle untilthe required speed has been reached, thenpress the 'SET+' switch to establish a newcruising speed (remember that cruise controlwill not operate at speeds below28 mph (45 km/h) for petrol engine models,or 31 mph (50 km/h) for diesel enginevehicles.

On petrol models only: press the 'RES' switchonce momentarily to cut off cruise control; ifthe brake pedal is not used, the vehicle willslow down gradually. When the desired speedhas been reached, press the 'SET+' switch toestablish the new cruising speed.

To increase the set cruising speedPress and hold the 'SET+' switch; the vehiclewill accelerate automatically. Release theswitch as soon as the desired speed has beenreached.

Alternatively, the set speed can be increasedincrementally by 'tapping' the 'SET+' switch.For each five taps the speed will increase by 5mph (8 km/h).

Disengaging cruise controlCruise control will automatically disengage ifthe brake (or clutch) pedals are pressed, orwhen the gear lever is moved into neutral(gear selector lever position 'N' for automaticgearbox).

113

On petrol models only: press the 'RES' switchonce momentarily to cut off cruise control;this allows the vehicle to slow down gradually.

If required, press the 'RES' switch again tore-engage cruise control at the previously-setspeed.

NOTE: The speed held in the cruise controlmemory willbe cancelled when either thecruise control master switch or the starterswitch are turned off.

NOTE: Cruise control willdisengageautomatically if yourroad speed falls to lessthan 75percent of the setspeed (this couldoccur when towing uphill).

Air suspension

Your vehicle is fitted with an electronicallycontrolled air suspension system (EAS) whichprovides five different ride height settingsincluding an 'Access' mode. These settingsincrease or decrease the height and groundclearance ofyour vehicle to cope withdifferent driving conditions.

In addition, the EAS also provides automaticsuspension levelling.

Before operating EASRemember, even if achange of ride height isselected, it will NOT take place:

• If the tailgate orany door is open.

• Whilst the footbrake iscontinously appliedfor less than 3 minutes.

• If the engine is not running (except forselection of 'Access' within 40 seconds ofswitching off).

If the 'Access' mode is required, ensure thehandbrake isapplied (select 'P' for automatictransmission).

NOTE: Frequent changes between rideheights could cause the compressor tooverheat. If this occurs, EAS willbe fullyoperational again after a few minutes whenthe compressor has cooled.

n Low ride height*. t Approximately 25 mm (1 in)• below 'Standard'. Selected

automatically when speeds of over 50 mph(80 km/h) are sustained for over 30 seconds.This setting lowers the vehicle's centre ofgravity, thereby improving the handlingcharacteristics of the vehicle. The vehicleautomatically returns to 'Standard' if speedsbelow 35 mph (55 km/h) are sustained forover 30 seconds. 'Low' can be manuallyselected at any speed when Inhibit mode hasbeen selected.

Access/Crawl ride height

Access mode( .0:7- Approximately 65 mm (2.5 in)below 'Standard', enabling easier

access or loading. 'Access' can be selectedwith the engine running and for up to 40seconds after it has been switched offprovided:

• The vehicle isstationary.

• The handbrake isapplied (gearshift in 'P'for automatic transmission).

• All doors and the tailgate are closed.

• The footbrake is NOT applied.

'Access' can also be preselected up to 40seconds before the vehicle stops. However,the suspension will not begin to lower untilthe vehicle isstationary with the handbrakeapplied, the gear selector in the 'P' (park)position and the footbrake released.Preselection isautomatically cancelled if the40 second period isexceeded.

116

NOTE: If adoor/tailgate is opened or thefootbrake isapplied while the vehicle ischanging height, the change willbeinterrupted.

When moving off, vehicle height automaticallyreturns to 'Standard' ('Low' if 'Inhibit' modewas operational BEFORE 'Access' wasselected, see 'Inhibit' switch).


If the suspension is in 'Inhibit' mode and'Access' ride height isselected when theengine isswitched off, then when theengine is restarted, if the gear selector ismoved from 'P' ('Park' on automatictransmission) and the handbrake isreleased before the system bulb check iscomplete, the vehicle will rise from'Access' to 'Standard' instead of 'Low'ride height.

Trip computer & overspeed warning

P0192

The trip computer provides valuableinformation to assist the driver to calculatefuel stops, journey times and distances.

The two push switches (illustrated) operatethe trip computer and overspeed warningsystem, and messages from the trip computerand overspeed warning system are displayedin the message centre.

NOTE: The message centre's primaryfunction is to display warning messagesgenerated bythe vehicle's monitoringsystems. Trip computer messages are ofsecondary importance and thereforeautomatically overridden when other, moreimportant, information is required fordisplay.The trip computer and overspeed warningmessages resume when other messages areno longer valid.

121

TRIP COMPUTERWith the starter switch in position '11', pressswitch (1) to scroll through the trip computerfunctions. These will appear in the followingorder:

• DISTANCE TO EMPTY

• AVERAGE FUEL CONSUMPTION

• AVERAGE SPEED

• TRIP DISTANCE TWO

• TRIP DISTANCE ONE

NOTE: Trip Distance One is the computer'sdefault position.

Distance to emptyThis function isautomatic and indicates theremaining distance you can travel before thefuel gauge reads empty - the message centredisplays: 'RANGE - - -'.

If the estimated remaining distance falls below50 miles (80 km/h), the message centre willdisplay 'REFUEL, RANGE <50' ('REFUEL,RANGE <80'), indicating that you should refuelat the earliest opportunity.

NOTE: If a recalculation of the Distance ToEmpty function occurs when the range isbetween 50 - 56miles (80 - 90km/h), thedisplay will show the distance to emptymessage butNOT the refuel message. Takecare notto run out of fuel!


Average fuel consumptionThis function isautomatic and indicates theaverage fuel consumption since the last timethe trip computer was reset (average fuelconsumption iscalculated by dividing thedistance travelled by the amount of fuel used).

While the system iscalculating the averagefuel consumption, the display shows'COMPUTING MPG'. Once the fuelconsumption value iscalculated, 'AVERAGEMPG' will be displayed, and a3 digit fuelconsumption value (shown in tens, units andtenths ofagallon) also appears in the display.

NOTE: The displayed value willnotchange ata rate greater than 0.1 mpg per 3 seconds(0.1 litres/100 km per6 seconds), and willbebetween 0 and 99.9 mpg (0 and 99.9litres/100 km).

Average speedThis function isautomatic and indicates theaverage speed since the last time the tripcomputer was reset (average speed iscalculated by dividing the actual distancetravelled by the accumulated time in which thestarter switch has been turned on).

While the system iscalculating the averagespeed, the display will show 'COMPUTINGMPH'. Once the calculation has been made,the display changes to 'AVG. SPEED' followedby 3 digits indicating the average speed inhundreds, tens and units.

NOTE: The Average Speed display willchangeatamaximum rate of 1mph per2 seconds.

122

Trip distance twoThis function records the distance over whichthe average fuel consumption and speed havebeen calculated, and will always be thedistance the vehicle has travelled since thecomputer was last reset. The message centredisplays TRIP2 ---'.

Trip distance oneThis isastandard trip recorder of the typefitted to most motor vehicles and records thedistance travelled since the reset button (onthe right of the instrument pack) was lastpressed. Press the reset button to zero the triprecorder. If the message display shows aninternal or trip computer message, it can bechanged to display the Trip Distance Onefunction by operating the trip recorder resetbutton - the message centre displays thedistance only (without TRIP1 ---').


P0192

Resetting the trip computerWith the starter switch turned to position '11',press and hold switch 1 for at least 2seconds:

• Distance To Empty and Average FuelConsumption functions both reset. Thedisplay will show 'COMPUTING RANGE'and 'COMPUTING MPG' until adistance of0.6 miles (1 kilometre) has been travelled,after which the computer will once againbe able to calculate an average fuelconsumption figure.

• Average Speed is reset. The display willshow 'COMPUTING MPH' until the vehiclehas travelled far enough (0.6 miles or1kilometre) for an average speed to beavailable.

• Trip Distance Two function resets to zero

NOTE: The Trip Distance One function is notaffected byresetting the trip computer.

123

TRIP COMPUTER OVERSPEED WARNINGThe overspeed warning function is an aid tokeeping within speed limits, and isselected bypressing switch 2 ('bell' symbol).

To set the speed limit, press the switch (onceor twice) until 'SPEED LIMIT - - -' isdisplayed,and then hold the switch until the requiredspeed appears in the display (speeds willscroll upwards in increments of5 mph from20 mph (30 km/h) to 100 mph (140 km/h).

NOTE: The display willstart scrolling fromwhich ever speed was previously setin thesystem memory.

As soon as the required speed appears in thedisplay, release the switch. That speed willthen be set in the system memory.

Whilst driving, if you exceed the pre-setspeed, 'SPEED LIMIT - - -' will be displayed inthe message centre and an audible warningwill sound.

To cancel the speed you have set, pressswitch 2 again (the message 'SPEED LIMITOFF' will appear).

Towing & load carrying

P0211

TOWING WITH YOUR VEHICLEThe torque ranges of Land Rover enginesallow maximum-weight loads to be pulledsmoothly from standstill, and reduce gearchanging on hills or rough terrain. Thesuspension isdesigned to cope with a heavytrailer load without upsetting the balance orfeel of the vehicle.

Only fit towing accessories that have beendesigned and approved by Land Rover.

Ensure that the gross vehicle weight andmaximum rear axle weight are notexceeded.

When preparing your vehicle for towingalways pay careful attention to the trailermanufacturer's recommendations and thefollowing guidelines.

124

• Set the electronic air suspension to'INHIBIT' select STANDARD ride heightand maintain that setting whilst towing.

• Ensure that the vehicle and trailer tyrepressures are as recommended by thetrailer manufacturer.

• Check the operation of trailer brakes andlights.

• For maximum stability, ensure that loadsare properly secured and unable to shiftposition during transit. Where possible,position loads so that most of the weightis placed close to the floor andimmediately above or close to the traileraxle(s).

• After loading the trailer check that theweight on the hitch point (this iscalled thedraw-bar loading weight, or nose weight),is in accordance with the manufacturer'srecommendations.

• When calculating the laden weight of thetrailer, remember to include the weight ofthe trailer PLUS the load.

• Where the load can be divided betweentrailer and tow vehicle, loading moreweight into the vehicle than the trailer willgenerally improve the stability of thecombination.


NOTE: Towing regulations val)! from countryto country. It is very important, therefore, toensure that national regulations governingtowing weights and speed limits are observed.The maximum permissible towed weights andinformation stated on the instruction labelattached to the towbracket refer to thevehicle's design limitations and NOT toanyspecific territorial restrictions (see 'Maximumpermissible towed weights').

THE LAND ROVER TOWBALL(if fitted)

In some countries, vehicles are supplied witha Land Rover towball - this isstowed in thestorage tray at the side of the spare wheel.

Insert the towball into the channel beneath therear bumper, locating the rear of the towballover the stud at the rear of the channel. Holdthe towball in position and, from the left handside, insert the bolt through the channel andthe towball.

Tyres

................................

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::W~~:~Jij,9!!:!::!!U::!!U::!!::!::!!::!::!!::!::!!::• Never drive your vehicle if the tyres are

badly worn, cut or damaged, or if thepressures are incorrect.

• Incorrectly inflated tyres wear rapidlyand seriously affect the vehicle's safetyand road handling characteristics.

Caring foryour lyresAlways drive with consideration for thecondition of the tyres and frequently inspectthe tread and side walls for signs ofdistortionor damage (in particular, look for lumps, cutsand bulges).

Tyre pressuresTyre pressures should be checked at leastonce aweek with normal road use, but shouldbe checked DAILY if the vehicle is usedoff-road.

Check the pressures, including the spare,when the tyres are cold (air pressure naturallyincreases in warm tyres). The recommendedpressures are given in the 'General data'section.

Tyre wearSome tyres fitted as original equipment havewear indicators moulded into the treadpattern. When the tread has worn down to1/16 inch (1.6 mm) the indicators startappearing on the surface of the tread pattern,producing the effect ofacontinuous bandacross the width of the tyre.

Atyre MUST be replaced as soon as anindicator band becomes visible or the treaddepth reaches the minimum permitted bylegislation.

Tread depth must be checked regularly (atevery maintenance service, or morefrequently). Always replace atyre before thetread reaches a remaining depth of 1/16 in.(1.6 mm). DO NOT drive with tyres worn tothis limit; the safety of the vehicle and itsoccupants will be adversely affected.

NOTE: After off-road use, check to make surethere are no lumps orbulges in the tyres orexposure of the plyorcord structure.

Valve capsKeep the valve caps screwed down firmly toprevent dirt from entering the valve.

Tyres

Replacement tyresWheel rims and tyres are matched to suit thehandling characteristics of the vehicle. Forsafety, ALWAYS check that replacementtyrescomply with the manufacturer's originalspecification and that the load rating shownon the side wall is the same as that of theoriginal equipment.

::j:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::W~~:~~~9::iii::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::Batteries contain acid, which is bothcorrosive and poisonous. If spillage occurs:

• On clothing or the skin - remove anycontaminated clothing immediately,flush the skin with large amounts ofwater, and seek medical attentionurgently.

• In the eyes - flush with clean waterimmediately forat least 15minutes.Seek medical attention urgently.

Swallowing battery acidcan be fatalunless IMMEDIATE action is taken - seekmedical attention urgently.

During normal operation batteries emitexplosive hydrogen gas - ensure sparksand naked lights are kept away from theengine compartment.

For your safety remove all metal wristbands and jewellery before working inthe engine compartment and NEVERallowthe battery terminals or vehicleleads to make contact with tools ormetalparts of the vehicle.

Battery maintenanceThe battery isdesigned to be maintenancefree, so topping-up is unnecessary. On the topof the battery there isa battery conditionindicator (arrowed in illustration). Examine theindicator periodically to check the battery'scondition. When the indicator shows:

• GREEN - the battery is in agood state ofcharge.

• DARK (turning to black) - the batteryneeds charging.

• CLEAR (or light yellow) - the battery must

151

be replaced. Do not charge the battery orjump start the car in this condition.

• If the green dot is missing, the batteryneeds charging.

NOTE: When checking the battery conditionindicator, if necessary, clean the battery top toensure aclear view.

Battery removal &replacement

Turn the three turnbuckles anti-clockwise torelease the battery cover and switch offallelectrical equipment.

Your vehicle may be fitted with a batterybacked-up sounder, which operates as ananti-theft siren if the main battery isdisconnected. If the main vehicle battery istobe removed, it is ESSENTIAL to adopt thefollowing procedure before disconnecting theterminals, in order to prevent the alarm fromsounding:

1. Turn starter switch 'on' and then 'off' andthen remove the key from the vehicle.

2. Disconnect battery WITHIN 17 SECONDS(if the battery is not disconnected within17 seconds, the alarm will sound).

ALWAYS disconnectthe negative (-) cablefirst and then the positive ('-') cable. Whenreconnecting, connect the positive cable firstand then the negative cable. Do not allow thebattery terminals to make contact with metalparts of the vehicle.

To release the battery from the car, undo thenuts securing the battery clamping plate andremove the clamping plate.

152

When replacing, ensure the battery is fittedthe right way round (positive terminal towardsthe centre of the vehicle) and that theclamping plate issecure. Tighten the clampingplate nuts until the clamping plate is free frommovement, but do not overtighten.

If the siren sounds when the battery isreconnected, it can NOT be turned off in thenormal way (ie. by operating the handsetbuttons). To deactivate the alarm, turn thestarter switch to position '1'.

Replacement batteriesOnly fit a replacement battery of the same typeand specification as the original- otherbatteries may vary in size or have differentterminal positions which could cause afirehazard when connected to the vehicle'selectrical system.

Battery disposalUsed batteries should be recycled. However,batteries are hazardous - you should seekadvice about disposal from a Land Roverdealer oryour local authority.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::!~~:ijl~~:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::• Do not reverse the polarity ofthe battery

- the electrical system may be damagedif the battery leads are connected to thewrong terminals.

• Keep the battery upright atall times damage will be caused if the battery istilted more than 45 degrees.

• DO NOT run the engine with the batterydisconnected, ordisconnect the batterywhile the engine is running.

Battery

BATTERY CHARGINGBatteries generate explosive gases, containcorrosive acid and produce levels of electriccurrent sufficient to cause serious injury.While charging always heed the followingprecautions:

• Before charging, disconnect and removethe battery from the vehicle - charging thebattery with the cables connected maydamage the car's electrical system.

• Make sure the battery charger leads aresecurely clamped to the battery terminalsBEFORE switching on the battery charger.Do not move the leads once the charger isswitched on.

• While charging, shield your eyes oravoidleaning over the battery and keep the areaaround the top of the battery wellventilated.

• Do not allow naked lights near the battery(batteries generate inflammable hydrogenduring and after charging).

• The battery will be charged sufficientlyonce the battery condition indicator showsGREEN. When charging is finished, switchoff the battery charger BEFOREdisconnecting the leads from the batteryterminals.

• After charging, leave the battery for anhour BEFORE reconnection to the vehiclethis will allow time for explosive gases todisperse, thereby minimising the risk offire or explosion.

LOCKING WHEEL NUTS

In some markets, vehicles are equipped with alocking wheel nut on each wheel (excludingthe spare). The locking wheel nut covers arevisually very similar to standard wheel nutsbut can be identified by aconcave indent onthe surface. The locking wheel nut and covercan only be removed using the special toolsprovided, as follows:

• Push the extractor tool (1) firmly over thestainless steel nut cover (2).

• Pull the extractor tool squarely away fromthe wheel to remove the nut cover andreveal the locking wheel nut (3).

• Fit the metal key socket (4) secu rely overthe locking wheel nut (3).

• Fit the wheel nut wrench onto the keysocket and unscrew the nut in the normalway.

Acode letter isstamped on the face of the keysocket. Ensure the code letter isentered in thespace provided on your Security Informationcard - you will need to quote this letter ifreplacement components are required. Keepthe card in asafe place away from the vehicle.

For security reasons, store the key socket andextractor tool in the glovebox and keep theglovebox locked.

NOTE: If the extractor tool has beeninadvertently pushed onto astandard wheelnut, it can be removed ONLYbyfirstundoingand removing the nut; slide the wheel nutwrench down the centre of the extractor andonto the wheel nut.

Cleaning & vehicle care

WASHING YOUR VEHICLEWash your vehicle frequently using aclean,grit free sponge and generous quantities ofcold or lukewarm water containing acarshampoo. Rinse and dry off with achamoisleather.

• Do not use hot water!

• Do not use detergent soap products orwashing-up liquid!

During winter months when salt has beenused on the roads, use ahose to wash theunderside ofthe vehicle. Pay particularattention to wheelarches and panel seams,and to removing accumulations of mud.

Similarly, after off-road driving or wading inmuddy orsalt water conditions, use ahose towash underbody components and otherexposed parts ofthe vehicle.

When using ahose, do not direct the jet intothe heater air intake ducts, orthrough thewheel trim apertures onto the brakecomponents, orat the door, window orsunroof seals, where water pressure couldpenetrate the seals.

::j:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::W~~:~~~9::iii::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::Some high pressure cleaning systems aresufficiently powerful to penetrate door andwindow seals and damage rubbing stripsand locking mechanisms. Never aim thewater jetdirectly atheater airintakes, bodyand sunroof seals, or atany componentsthat might easily be damaged.

174

Getting rid of tar spotsUse white spirit to remove tar spots andstubborn grease stains from the paintwork.Then wash immediately with soapy water toremove all traces ofspirit.

Body protectionAfter washing, inspect the paintwork fordamage. Treat paint chips and scratches withtouch-up paint to prevent corrosion, andoccasionally protect the paint surface with anapplication ofcar polish.

NOTE: DO NOT apply car polish to themoulded bumpers - polish willbecomeingrained in the textured finish of themouldings.

Glass &mirrorsClean the rear screen with asoft cloth to avoiddamaging the heater elements. DO NOTscrape the glass or use an abrasive cleaningfluid.

Mirror glass is particularly susceptible todamage; DO NOT use abrasive cleaningcompounds or metal scrapers.

Cleaning & vehicle care

LOOKING AFTER THE INTERIORClean plastic-faced orcloth covered surfaceswith diluted upholstery cleaner.

Leather seats, steering wheel and trimfeatures should be cleaned with adamp clothmoistened with undiluted upholstery cleaner.Leave for five minutes, and then repeat theoperation using aclean, cloth and water, butavoid flooding the area! Dry and polish theleather with adry, clean, lint-free cloth.

DO NOT use petrol, detergents, furniturecreams or polishes.

Instrument pack, clock &radioClean with adry cloth. DO NOT use cleaningfluids or sprays.

Seat beltsExtend belts, then use warm water and anon-detergent soap to clean. Allow to drynaturally, and do not retract until completelydry.

175

Airbag SRSTo prevent airbag SRS damage, the airbagmodule covers, (steering wheel centre pad,front seat backs and area of the fascia panelcontaining the front passenger airbag) shouldONLY be cleaned sparingly with adamp clothand upholstery cleaner.

DO NOT allow these areas to be flooded withliquid, and DO NOT use petrol, detergent,furniture cream or polishes.

Urban cycleThe urban test cycle is carried out from acold start and consists of aseries of accelerations,decelerations and periods of steady speed driving and engine idling. The maximum speed attainedduring the test is 31 mph (50 km/h), with an average speed of 12 mph (19 km/h).

Extra-urban cycleThe extra-urban test cycle is carried out immediately after the urban test. Approximately half of thetest comprises steady speed driving, while the remainder consists of aseries of accelerations,decelerations and engine idling. The maximum test speed is 75 mph (120 km/h) and the averagespeed 39 mph (63 km/h). The test is carried out over adistance of 4.3 miles (7 km).

CombinedThe combined figure is an average of the urban and extra-urban test cycle results, which has beenweighted to take account of the different distances covered during the two tests.

NOTE: These figures should notbe compared with the figures produced using the ECE/EECprocedure previously required by The Passenger Car Fuel Consumption Order 1983. Because ofthe changes in test procedure, even the urban figures would differ if the same car were subjectedto both tests.

This section of the handbook is devoted toyourvehicle's superb off-road drivingcapabilities.

Before venturing off-road however, it isabsolutely essential that inexperienceddrivers become fully familiar with the vehicle'scontrols, inparticular the transfer gearbox,and also study the off-road driving techniquesdescribed on the following pages.

Off-road driving

.:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Off-road driving can be hazardous!

• DO NOT take unnecessary risks.

• Be prepared for emergencies atalltimes.

• Familiarise yourself with therecommended driving techniques inorder to minimise risks to yourself, yourvehicle AND your passengers.

• Remove the CD autochanger (if fitted)before arduous off-road driving.

• Always wear a seat belt for personalprotection in all off-road drivingconditions.

• DO NOT drive if the fuel level is low undulating ground and steep inclinescould cause fuel starvation to the engineand consequent damage to the catalyticconverter.

• Driving Off-road with a loaded roof rackis NOT recommended. If it is necessaryto stow luggage on the roof rack whiledriving off-road, all loads MUST beremoved before traversing side slopes.

195

BASIC OFF-ROAD TECHNIQUESThese basic driving techniques are anintroduction to the art of off-road driving anddo not necessarily provide the informationneeded to successfully cope with every singleoff-road situation.

We strongly recommend that owners whointend to drive off-road frequently, shouldseek as much additional information andpractical experience as possible.

Gear selection - manual gearboxCorrect gear selection is possibly the singlemost important factor for safe and successfuloff-road driving. While only experience will tellyou which isthe correct gear for any sectionof ground, the following basic rules apply:

• NEVER change gear orde-clutch whilenegotiating difficult terrain; the drag on thewheels may cause the vehicle to stopwhen the clutch isdepressed andrestarting may be difficult.

• Generally, and especially where slippery orsoft ground conditions prevail, the higherthe gear you select the better.

• When descending very steep slopes,always select first gear in LOW range.

Inexperienced drivers are advised to stop thevehicle and carefully consider which gear willbe the most appropriate for each manoeuvrebefore continuing.

Off-road driving

Slipping the clutchUse of excessive clutch slip to prevent theengine stalling will result in premature clutchwear. Always select agear low enough toenable the vehicle to proceed without the needto slip the clutch.

DO NOT drive with your foot resting on theclutch pedal; driving across uneven terraincould cause you to inadvertently depress theclutch, resulting in loss of control of thevehicle.

Gear selection - automatic gearboxOn automatic models, with the gearshift leverset at '0', the gearbox automatically providesthe correct gear for the appropriate gear rangeselected (HIGH or LOW). Remember thatposition '1' will hold the gearbox in first gearto give maximum engine braking whenrequired.

HIGH range gears should be used wheneverpossible; only change to the LOW range whenground conditions become very difficult.Uncontrolled spinning of individual wheels willbe limited by the viscous coupling unit whichiscombined with the centre differential.

BrakingAs far as possible, vehicle speed should becontrolled through correct gear selection.

Application of the pedal should be kept to anabsolute minimum. Harsh braking on wet,muddy or loose surfaces could provedangerous.

NOTE: If the correct gear has been selected,braking willbe largely unnecessary.

196

Use of engine for brakingBefore descending steep slopes, stop thevehicle at least its length before the descent,move the gearshift lever to 'N', engage LOWrange and then select first orsecond gear ('1'or '2' for automatic transmission) dependingon the severity of the incline.

While descending the slope it should beremembered that the engine will providesufficient braking effort to control the rate ofdescent, and that the brakes should not beapplied.

AcceleratingUse the accelerator with care; any suddensurge of power may induce wheel spin andresult in loss of control of the vehicle.

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::)"A'#~:~~~~:::iii:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::DO NOT holdthe steering wheel with yourthumbs inside the rim; a sudden 'kick'of thewheel asthe vehicle negotiates a rutorboulder could seriously injure them.ALWAYS grip the wheelan the outside of therim (as shown) when traversing unevenground.

Off-road driving

Survey the ground before drivingBefore negotiating difficult terrain, it iswise tocarry out a preliminary survey on foot. Thiswill minimise the risk ofyour vehicle gettinginto difficulty through a previously unnoticedhazard.

Ground clearanceFor serious off-road driving ALWAYS removethe bib spoiler extension from the frontbumper (if fitted).

Don't forget to allow for ground clearancebeneath the chassis, axles and under the frontand rear bumpers. Note that the axledifferentials are situated BELOW the chassisand are positioned slightly to the LEFT of thecentre of the vehicle. Note also that there areother parts of the vehicle which may comeinto contact with the ground; take care not toground the vehicle.

Ground clearance is particularly important atthe bottom ofasteep slope, orwhere wheelruts are unusually deep and where suddenchanges in the slope of the ground areexperienced.

On soft ground, the axle differentials will cleartheir own path in all but the most difficultconditions. However, on frozen, rocky or hardground, if the vehicle's progress is halted as aresult of grounding of the chassis, this willcause the vehicle to rise automatically to the'Extended profile' ride height position. (see'Air suspension'for further details).

Always attempt to avoid obstacles that mayfoul the chassis ordifferentials.

Loss of tractionIf the vehicle is immobile due to loss ofwheelgrip, the following hints could be ofvalue:

• Avoid prolonged wheel spin; this will onlymake matters worse. The electronictraction control (ETC) (if fitted) willprevent wheel spin; drive will be divertedfrom aspinning wheel and the remainingwheel will then provide the tractionnecessary to overcome difficult drivingconditions.

• Remove obstacles rather than forcing thevehicle across them.

• Clear clogged tyre treads.

• Reverse as far as possible, then attemptan increased speed approach; additionalmomentum may overcome the obstacle.

• Brushwood, sacking or any similarmaterial placed in front of the tyres willimprove tyre grip.

Off-road driving


After driving off-roadBefore rejoining the public highway, ordriving at speeds above 25 mph (40km/h), consideration should be given tothe following:

• Wheels and tyres must be cleaned ofmud and inspected for damage ensure there are no lumps or bulgesin the tyres orexposure of the ply orcord structure.

• Brake discs and calipers should beexamined and any stones orgrit thatmay affect braking efficiencyremoved.

Servicing requirementsVehicles operated in arduous conditions,particularly on dusty, muddy orwetterrain, and vehicles undergoing frequentor deep wading conditions will requiremore frequent servicing. See 'Ownermaintenance' and contact a Land Roverdealer for advice.

In addition:

After wading in salt water or driving onsandy beaches, use a hose to thoroughlywash the underbody components and anyexposed body panels with fresh water.This will help to protect the vehicle'scosmetic appearance.

198

DRIVING ON SOFT SURFACES &DRY SANDThe ideal technique for driving on soft groundand dry sand requires the vehicle to be keptmoving at all times; soft ground and sandcauses excessive drag on the wheels,resulting in a rapid loss of motion oncedriving momentum is lost. For this reason,gear changing (particularly on manualgearbox vehicles) should be avoided.

Select the highest suitable gear and REMAINin that gear until a firm surface is reached. Itisgenerally advisable to use LOW rangegears, as these will enable you to acceleratethrough worsening conditions without the riskof being unable to restart.

Off-road driving

Stopping the vehicle on soft ground, in sandor on an incline

If you do stop the vehicle, remember:Starting on an incline or in soft ground orsand isalmost impossible. Always park on afirm, level area, orwith the vehicle facingdownhill.

To avoid wheel spin, select second or thirdgear and use the minimum throttle necessaryto get the vehicle moving. For automatictransmission vehicles, select '0' (or '4' if inLOW range). In LOW range, select MANUALmode (see 'Transmissions'for furtherinformation).

If forward motion is lost, avoid excessive useof the throttle; this will cause wheel spin andtend to dig the vehicle into the sand. Clearsand from around the tyres and ensure thatthe chassis and axles are not bearing on thesand before again attempting to move.

If the wheels have sunk, use an air bag liftingdevice or high lift jack to raise the vehicle, andthen build up sand under the wheels so thatthe vehicle isagain on level ground. If arestart is not possible, place sand mats orladders beneath the wheels.

199

DRIVING ON SLIPPERY SURFACES(ice, snow, mud or wet grass)

Select the highest gear possible. On automatictransmission vehicles, select '0' (or '4' if inLOW range). In LOW range, also selectMANUAL mode. (see 'Transmissions'forfurther information).

Drive away using the MINIMUM throttlepossible. Drive slowly at all times, keepingbraking to a minimum and avoiding violentmovements of the steering wheel.

Off-road driving

DRIVING ON ROUGH TRACKSOn very rough tracks, engage the LOW gearrange to enable asteady, low speed to bemaintained without constant use of the clutchand brake pedals.

CLIMBING STEEP SLOPESALWAYS follow the line of the slope; travellingdiagonally could encourage the vehicle to slidebroadside down the slope.

Steep climbs will usually require the LOW gearrange. If the surface is loose or slippery, usesufficient speed in the highest practical gearto take advantage of the vehicle's momentum.However, too high aspeed over a bumpysurface may result in awheel lifting, causingthe vehicle to lose traction. In this case try aslower approach. Traction can also beimproved by easing off the accelerator justbefore loss of forward motion.

200

If the vehicle is unable to complete aclimb, donot attempt to turn it around while on theslope. Instead, adopt the following procedureto reverse downhill to the foot of the slope.

1. Hold the vehicle stationary using both footand handbrakes.

2. Restart the engine if necessary.

3. Engage LOW range reverse gear CR' forautomatic transmission).

4. Release the handbrake. Then release thefoot brake and clutch (where applicable)simultaneously, and allow the vehicle toreverse down the slope using enginebraking to control the rate of descent.

5. Unless it is necessary to stop the vehiclein order to negotiate obstructions, DO NOTapply the brake or clutch pedal during thedescent.

6. If the vehicle begins to slide, accelerateslightly to allow the tyres to regain grip.

When the vehicle is back on level ground ortraction can be regained, afaster approachwill probably enable the hill to be climbed.However, DO NOT take unnecessary risks, ifthe hill istoo difficult to climb, find analternative route.

The engine must be restarted beforereversing down the slope asthere will be nobraking effect from the gearbox unless theengine is running.

Off-road driving

DESCENDING STEEP SLOPES

A. Stop the vehicle at least avehicle lengthbefore the slope, engage LOW range andthen select the lowest gear.

B. Unless it is necessary to stop the vehiclein order to negotiate obstructions, DO NOTtouch the brake or clutch pedals duringthe descent; the engine will limit thespeed, keeping the vehicle under controlprovided the front wheels are turning. Ifthe vehicle begins to slide, accelerategently to maintain directional stability. DONOT use the brakes or attempt to changegears.

201

C. Once level ground is reached, select asuitable gear for the next stage of thejourney.

Failure to follow these instructions maycause the vehicle to roll over.

Off-road driving

TRAVERSING ASLOPEBefore crossing aslope always observe thefollowing precautions:

• Check that the ground is firm and notslippery.

• Check that the wheels on the downhill sideof the vehicle are not likely to drop intoany depressions in the ground and that theuphill wheels will not run over rocks, treeroots, or similar obstacles that couldsuddenly increase the angle of tilt.

• Ensure that passenger weight isevenlydistributed, that all roof rack luggage isremoved and that all other luggage isproperly secured and stowed as low aspossible. Always remember; any suddenmovement of the load could cause thevehicle to overturn.

• Rear seat passengers should sit on theuphill side of the vehicle or, in extremeconditions, should vacate the vehicle untilthe sloping ground has been safelynegotiated.

202

NEGOTIATING A 'V' SHAPED GULLYObserve extreme caution! Steering up eitherof the gully walls could cause the side of thevehicle to be trapped against the oppositegully wall.

DRIVING IN EXISTING VEHICLE TRACKSAs far as possible, allow the vehicle to steeritself along the bottom of the ruts. However,always keep atight hold of the steering wheelto prevent it from spinning free.

Particularly in wet conditions, if the steeringwheel isallowed to spin free, the vehicle mayappear to be driving straight ahead in the ruts,but in actual fact (due to the lack of tractioncaused by wet ground) is unknowingly on fullright or left lock. Then, when level ground isreached, or if adry patch isencountered, thewheels will find traction and cause the vehicleto suddenly veer to the left or right.

Off-road driving

CROSSING ARIDGEApproach at right angles so that both frontwheels cross the ridge together; an angledapproach could cause traction to be lostthrough diagonally opposite wheels liftingfrom the ground at the same time.

CROSSING ADITCHCross ditches at an angle so that three wheelsalways maintain contact with the ground (ifapproached head on, both front wheels willdrop into the ditch together, possibly resultingin the chassis and front bumper being trappedon opposite sides of he ditch).

203

WADING.....................................................................................

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::J##~:~~~~::::iii::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::The maximum advisable wading depth is 20in. (0,5 metre).

Severe electrical damage may occur if thevehicle remains stationary forany length oftime when the water level is above the doorsills.

Before wading, ensure the electronic airsuspension isset in either 'Standard' or 'High'ride heig ht.

If the water is likely to exceed 20 in. (0.5metre) while the vehicle is moving, thefollowing precautions MUST be observed:

• Fix a plastic sheet in front of the radiatorgrille to prevent water from soaking theengine and mud from blocking theradiator.

• Ensure that the silt bed below the water isfirm enough to support the vehicle'sweight and provide sufficient traction.

• Select 'High' ride height.

• Ensure that the engine air intake isabovethe water level.

• Select a low gear and maintain sufficientthrottle to prevent the engine from stalling.This is particularly important if the exhaustpipe is under water.

• Drive slowly into the water and accelerateto aspeed which causes a bow wave toform; then maintain that speed.

At all times, keep all the doors fully closed.

Off-road driving

After wadingDrive the vehicle ashort distance and applythe footbrake to check that the brakes are fullyeffective.

DO NOT rely on the handbrake alone to holdthe vehicle stationary until the transmissionhas thoroughly dried out; in the meantime,use wheel chocks or leave the vehicle parkedin gear.

Remove any protective covering from in frontof the radiator grille.

If the water was particularly muddy, removeany blockages (mud and leaves) from theradiator and oil cooler (behind spoiler on lefthand side) to reduce the risk of overheating.

If deep water is regularly negotiated, check thetransmission oils for signs ofwatercontamination; contaminated oil can beidentified through its 'milky' appearance. Inaddition, check the air filter element for wateringress, and replace if wet.

Vehicles required to undergo frequent ordeepwading conditions will require more frequentservicing. See 'Owner maintenance' andcontact a Land Rover dealer for advice.

If salt water is frequently negotiated,thoroughly wash the underbody componentsand exposed body panels, with fresh water.

BIB SPOILER (if fitted)The vehicle has a bib spoiler extension fittedto the front bumper to improve air flow duringnormal driving conditions. This MUST beremoved when considering serious off-roaddriving.

The bib spoiler is in two parts and isattachedto the underside of the front bumper by sixspring clips and eight plastic rivets.

To remove:Using ascrewdriver, remove the inner lockingpins from the studs, then remove the studs.

Slide the spring clips off the bib spoiler, thenseparate the two halves of the spoiler.

Store all parts in asuitable container pendingrefitment.

To refit:Place one half of the bib spoiler against theunderside of the front bumper, install fourstuds and fit the locking pins and three springclips.

Engage the other half of the bib spoiler withthe first half, then fit the remaining studs andspring clips, ensuring that the locking pins arefitted to the studs.

SNOW CHAINSSnow chains are NOT recommended foroff-road use. For further information see'lyres'.
