Land Rover U.S. Emissions Performance Warranty Detailedinformationon thesewarranties can befound in thePassport to Serviceincluded in your literaturepack. ThePassport to Servicealso contains important vehicle identificationinformationand useful consumer advice. Most important of all, however, is thesection on maintenance. This outlines theservicing requirements for your RangeRover and also incorporates theservicerecordslips, which theDealer shouldsignand stampto certify that routineservices havebeencarriedout at therecommendedintervals. Reporting safety defects If you believethat your vehiclehas adefect whichcouldcauseacrashor couldcause injuryor death, you shouldimmediately informtheNational HighwayTraffic Safety Administration(NHTSA) in additionto notifyingLand Rover NorthAmericaInc. If NHTSAreceives similar complaints, it may open an investigationand if it finds that a safetydefect exists in agroup of vehicles, it mayorder arecall and remedycampaign. However, NHTSAcannot becomeinvolvedin individual problems betweenyou, your Dealer or Land Rover NorthAmerica. To contact NHTSA, you maycall theAuto Safetyhotlinetoll freeat 1-800-424-9393(or 202-366-0123in Washington, D.C. area) or writeto NHTSA, U.S. Department of Transportation, Washington, DC20590. You canalso obtainother informationabout motor vehiclesafetyfromthehotline. Introduction 4 WARNING Safety warnings are included in this handbook. These indicate either a procedure which must be followed precisely, or information that should be considered with great care in order to avoid the possibility of personal injury or serious damage to the vehicle. WARNING Your vehicle has a higher ground clearance and hence a higher centre of gravity than ordinary passenger cars to enable the vehicle to perform in a wide variety of off-road applications. An advantage of the higher ground clearance is a better view of the road allowing you to anticipate problems. The Range Rover is not designed for cornering at the same speed as conventional passenger cars any more than a low slung sports car is designed to perform satisfactorily under off-road conditions. As with other vehicles of this type, failure to operate the Range Rover correctly may result in loss of control or vehicle rollover. Introduction 5 WARNING LABELS ATTACHED TO THE VEHICLE Warning labels attached to your vehicle bearing this symbol mean: DO NOT touch or adjust components until you have read the relevant instructions in the handbook. Warning labels showing this symbol indicate that the ignition system utilises very high voltages. DO NOT touch any ignition components while the starter switch is turned on! INFORMATION LABELS ENGINE COMPARTMENT Various labels arefixedto your vehicleto drawyour attentionto specific safetyand emissioninformation. This illustrationis for general guidanceonlyas thepositionof the components and theextent of labels and other visual warnings couldvaryfrommodel to model. A. BATTERY WARNINGLABEL B.

HOODCLOSINGINSTRUCTIONS Introduction 6 VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER (VIN) If you needto communicatewith aLand Rover dealer, you maybeaskedto quotethe VehicleIdentificationNumber (VIN). TheVINand other informationconcerning your vehiclecanbefound on thecertification label affixedto thelock faceof thefront left-handdoor, whereshown (this VINshould matchtheVINrecordedin thePassport to Servicebook). In addition, theFederal VINplateis mounted to thevehiclebodyin suchapositionthat it is visiblefromtheoutsidethrough thebottom corner of thewindscreenon thedrivers side. WARNING DO NOT exceed gross weight or axle loads described on the vehicle certification identification label. Introduction 7 SRS/Airbag systems Takenoteof thewarninginformationfixedto theundersideof both sun visors, as follows: WARNING! DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY can occur Children12 and under canbekilledbythe airbag TheBACK SEAT is theSAFEST placefor children NEVER put arear-facingchildseat in the front Sit as far back as possiblefromtheairbag ALWAYS useSEAT BELTS and CHILD RESTRAINTS Introduction 8 ANTI-THEFT PRECAUTIONS Whileit maybedifficult to deter the professional car thief, themajorityof thefts arecarriedout byunskilledopportunists. Therefore, takevehiclesecurityveryseriously and ALWAYS adopt this simplefour point drill whenever you leaveyour vehicle- even for just afewminutes: 1. Fullycloseall thewindows (andthe sunroof). 2. Removeyour valuablebelongings (or hide themout of sight). 3. Removethestarter key. 4. Superlockthevehicleusingtheremote handset. Thieves areattractedbyvulnerable vehicles. Evenif you havefollowedthefour point drill, thereis still much you cando to makeyour vehiclealess invitingtarget. BE SAFE - NOT SORRY! Park whereyour vehiclecanbeeasilyseen byhouseholders and passers-by. At night, park in well lit areas and avoid desertedor dimly-lit sidestreets. At home, if you haveagarage, useit - and NEVER leavethekeys in thevehicle. Do not keepimportant documents (or sparekeys) in thevehicle- theseareareal bonus for thethief. IMPORTANT INFORMATION Remember the breakdown safety code If abreakdownoccurs whiletravelling:- Wherever possible, consistent with safetyand traffic conditions, the vehicleshouldbemovedoff the mainthoroughfare, preferablyonto theshoulder as far as possible. If a breakdownoccurs on afreeway, pull well over to theinsideof thehard shoulder. Switchon hazardlights. If possible, positionthewarning triangle(locatedon theundersideof theloadspacefloor panel - see Warning triangle) or aflashing amber light at an appropriate distancefromthevehicleto warn other traffic of thebreakdown(note thelegal requirements of some areas). Consider evacuatingpassengers to a safeareaawayfromthevehicleas a precautionin caseyour RangeRover is struckbyanother vehicle. 9 In this section of the handbook you will find descriptions of the controls and instruments on your vehicle. For your own safety, it is most important to read this section fully and to gain a thorough understanding of all the controls before driving.

In order to ensuremaximumsecurity, you areadvisedto gainafull understandingof thesystemby thoroughlyreadingthis sectionof the handbook. LOCKING THE VEHICLE AND ARMING THE ALARM You havebeensuppliedwith two handset/keys (numbered1 and 2). Whileboth areidentical in operation, theytransmit two different sets of information(seeKey activated memory seats). Replacement handsets areonlyavailablefromaLand Rover dealer. Up to two further handsets (3 and 4) canalso beobtained. Therearefour methods for securingyour vehicle: 1. Superlocking usingthehandset - (recommendedhigh securitymethod). 2. Superlocking usingthekey. 3. Lockingusingthehandset. 4. Lockingusingthekey. FOR MAXIMUM SECURITY, ALWAYS SUPERLOCK THE VEHICLE USING THE HANDSET (except when thevehicleis to belockedwith passengers or animals inside). IMPORTANT INFORMATION Emergency keys In additionto thetwo handsets, you have also beensuppliedwith two separate keys. Thesekeys performthesame functions as thekeypart of thehandset and areintendedfor emergencyuseonly. DONOT keepthekeys insidethevehicle. The handset Theradio remotehandset has threebuttons (describedbelow). Bypressingthe appropriatebutton, thehandset canbeused either as aconventional key, or as aremote handset to either lock or superlock the vehicle. 1. Keyreleasebutton. Press to releasethekey, whichcanthen beusedas aconventional keyto operate thestarter switch, gloveboxand door locks. Locks & alarm 13 2. Lock button (padlocksymbol) press onceto lock. press twiceto superlock. 3. Unlockbutton press onceto unlock. press and hold to operatetheKey activatedmemoryseats facility(seeKey activated memory seats). Oncethesecuritysystemis armed, the followingfeatures areactivated: Thecentral lockingsystemlocks all the doors and thetailgate. Theperimetric alarm(protectingthe doors, hood and tailgate) is armed. If handset superlocking is activated, the volumetric alarmis also armed(asensor insidethepassenger compartment monitors theinterior spaceand activates thealarmif an intrusioninto the passenger compartment is detected). Thevolumetric sensor will enter aself-check modeeachtimeyou turn thestarter switch off. It will remainactivefor 60 seconds, or until: 1. Thedrivers door is openedand closed. 2. Thevehicleis lockedwith thehandset or key. NOTE: If the sensor fails its self-check five times consecutively, only the perimetric elements of the security system will be active (doors, hood and tailgate). Any attempt to superlock with the handset will result in ALARM FAULT being displayed on the message centre and a mislock occurring (see Mislock). Seek qualified assistance to rectify the fault. NOTE: The handset complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: 1. This devicemaynot causeharmful interference. 2. This devicemust accept anyinterference received, includinginterferencethat may causeundesiredoperation. This applies to both alarmreceivers and handset transmitter. CAUTION: Anychanges or modifications to thetransmitter not expresslyapprovedbythe manufacturer couldvoidtheusers authority to operatetheequipment. Locks & alarm 14 Anti-theft alarm indicator light After lockingthevehicle, theREDindicator light (arrowedin illustration) flashes rapidly for ten seconds to confirmthat thesecurity systemhas beensuccessfullyarmed. After ten seconds, theindicator light adjusts to aslower frequency, and then continues to flashas an anti-theft deterrent until suchtimeas the securitysystemis disarmed. If, whileoperatingthehandset (or key), the alarmsounds, this indicates that oneof the doors, thehood or thetailgateis not properly closed(themessagecentredisplaywill confirmwhichapertureis not secure). Although thehandset canbesuccessfully operatedfromasignificant distancefromthe vehicle, when lockingit is wiseto beclose enough to visuallyconfirmthat thedoor lockingbuttons havedroppedinto placeand that theindicator light confirms asuccessful lock. NOTE: Occasional atmospheric conditions can significantly reduce the effective range of handset operation. If this occurs, operate the handset closer to the vehicle. In the most extreme cases, it may be necessary to touch the handset against the radio aerial fired onto one of the rear side windows. If themessagecentredisplays KEY BATTERY LOW, this indicates that thehandset batteries needreplacing(seeHandset batteries). SUPERLOCKING If thevehicleis superlocked (witheither the handset, or thekey), thedoors CANNOT be unlockedor openedfrominsidethevehicle. For this reasonDONOT superlockthevehicle with passengers inside. Superlocking using the handset: Press and releasethelock button (1) on the handset twice(within1 1 / 2 seconds). After 15 seconds you will hear superlocking engage. If anydoor, thehood or tailgateis left open, a mislockwill occur (seeMislock). If awindowor sunroof is open, superlocking will engageimmediately, however volumetric protectionwill not beactivated. To unlock: Press and releasetheunlock button (2) on thehandset once. If thehandset is inoperative, thevehiclecan beunlockedbyusingthekeyin thedrivers door lock. Locks & alarm 15 Superlocking using the key: Wherever possiblethehandset MUST beused to superlock thevehicle. However, if the handset is inoperative, thekeycanbeusedas follows: Turn thekeyin thedrivers door towards the rear of thevehicle(andrelease) twicewithin 1 1 / 2 seconds. NOTE: Superlocking the vehicle using the key will provide perimetric protection only - volumetric protection (protection of the interior space inside the vehicle) WILL NOT BE ACTIVE! If any door, the hood, or the tailgate is left open, a mislock will occur (see Mislock). To unlock: Wherever possibleusethehandset to unlock thevehicle- press and releasetheunlock button. If necessary, thekeycanalso beusedto unlock asuperlocked vehicle. IMPORTANT INFORMATION If unattendedpassengers areto beleft in thevehicle, it is recommendedthat they shouldlock thevehiclefrominsideby pressingdown thedrivers door sill button. If animals areto beleft in thevehicle, volumetric protectionMUST NOT be activated- anymovement insidethe vehiclecouldtrigger thealarm. DONOT leavechildrenunattendedin the vehicle! WARNING NEVER superlock the vehicle if passengers are to be left inside - superlocking prevents door locks from being operated from INSIDE as well as outside the vehicle! NOTE: If the handset lock button or the door key are operated once, the central locking will be activated, but the alarm will only be in perimetric mode and the doors and locks CAN be opened from the inside. ALWAYS, where possible secure the vehicle by superlocking. Sill locking To operatethecentral lockingfrominsidethe vehicle, push down either front door sill button. The security system will NOT be armed. NOTE: Sill locking is NOT possible from outside the vehicle. Locks & alarm 16 MISLOCK A mislockwill occur if: A door, hood or tailgateareleft open. Thekeyis left in thestarter switch. An incompleteall close is attempted. The messagecentrewill indicatethecauseof a mislocke.g. SUNROOFBLOCKED. If amislockoccurs, awarningbleep will sound in whichcaseyou shouldunlock the vehicle, rectifythecauseof themislockand then re-lockthevehicle.

Thedoors and tailgatewill lock and the windows, followedbythesunroof will close. NOTE: If a window or the sunroof detects an obstruction, a mislock occurs and the locking sequence will stop. Remove the obstruction before trying to use the all close feature again. KEY ACTIVATED MEMORY SEATS This featureenables thehandsets to beused to recall thepre-set electric seat/mirror positions when you UNLOCK thedoor. The two handsets areseparatelyidentifiedby different labels and bygreyand blackbattery covers - key1 corresponds to drivers seat memory1, and key2 to seat memory2 (see Seats). NOTE: If additional handset/keys have been obtained (key 3 & key 4), they are not linked to the memory seat system. Press and hold theunlock button on the handset for 1 1 / 2 seconds (theindicator light on thehandset flashes rapidly), and then release. Thedrivers seat and both mirrors will moveto thepositions programmedinto the relevant seat memory. NOTE: This feature will only operate if volumetric protection was activated when the vehicle was locked (ie. by superlocking using the handset). It will not function if the alarm system has already been triggered since it was last set, and will be cancelled if a door is opened, or if the vehicle is relocked. Locks & alarm 17 AUTO RELOCK Auto relockensures that, if thevehicleis unlockedaccidentally, thevehiclewill relock itself automaticallyafter a60 seconddelay.

Seats 34 REAR SEAT WARNING DO NOT adjust any part of a seat while the vehicle is in motion. Ensure your fingers are clear of the seat latches when folding the rear seats. Folding the rear seats One, or both parts of thesplit rear seat, canbe either partiallyfoldedto provideauseful horizontal surface, or fullyfoldedto further increasetherear loadspace. Beforefoldingeither part of therear seat, ensurethat theouter rear seat belts are correctlystowedin their belt clips (see illustration). To avoiddamagingthecentre seat belt, roll thebuckleneatlyand stowit in thespaceprovidedat its anchor point in the centreof therear seat. To fold either part of therear seat, press the appropriatereleasebutton A, then fold the backrest down to position1. To further increasetheloadspace, fold thebackrest and seat basetogether to position2. Whenreturningtherear seat to its normal position, ensurethat thebackrest is securely latchedin placebeforedriving. NOTE: If the seat base is not fully latched in position, it will not be possible to raise the backrest. WARNING When the seat is returned to the upright position the latching mechanism should be visually checked and physically tested, to ensure that the latch is secure before driving. Seats 35 Rear head restraint adjustment Headrestraints aredesignedto restrain rearwardmovement of theheadin theevent of acollision. Lift to raisetheheadrestraint. Depress the button to lower or removetheheadrestraint. Tilt theangleof therestraint to ensureit is as closeto theback of theheadas possible. WARNING Always adjust the height of the head restraint level with the back of the head, not the neck. DO NOT carry passengers with the head restraints removed. Rear seat armrest Pull on thetab at thetop of thearmrest and fold down to thehorizontal position. Seat belts 36 SEAT BELT SAFETY WARNING Seat belts are life saving equipment. In a collision, occupants not wearing a seat belt will be thrown around inside, or possibly thrown out of the vehicle. This is likely to result in more serious injuries than would have been the case had a seat belt been worn. It may even result in loss of life! Dont take chances with safety! DO make sure ALL occupants are securely strapped in at all times - even for the shortest journeys. The airbag supplementary restraint system (SRS) (where fitted) is designed to add to the overall effectiveness of the seat belts, it DOES NOT replace them. SEAT BELTS MUST ALWAYS BE WORN. Ensure that all seat belts are worn correctly - an improperly worn seat belt increases the risk of death or serious injury in the event of a collision. DO use the seat belts to secure items of luggage that are to be carried on the seats - in the event of an accident, loose items become flying missiles capable of causing serious injury, or even death. Seat belts 37 WEARING SEAT BELTS CORRECTLY Fastening the inertia reel belts Drawthebelt over theshoulder and across thechest, and then insert themetal tongue plateinto thelock nearest thewearer - a CLICK indicates that thebelt is securely locked. In somecircumstances, perhaps dueto the vehiclebeingparkedon aslope, theinertia mechanismmayengage, preventingtheinitial extensionof abelt. This is not afault - ease thebelt freeand useit. Adjust theseat belt to eliminateanyslackin thewebbing. DONOT slackenthewebbingby holdingthebelt awayfromthebody- to be fullyeffective, theseat belt must remainin full contact with thebodyat all times. Also, ensurethat thelapbelt fits as lowon thehips as possibleand that theshoulder belt passes across theshoulder without slippingoff or pressingon theneck. Upper anchorage adjustment Theheight of theseat belt upper anchorage canbeadjustedfor comfort ANDsafety. Press and hold thebutton (arrowedin upper illustration) to raiseor lower theanchorage. For safety, theseat belt shouldalways be worn with thewebbingcrossingtheshoulder midwaybetweentheneck and theedgeof the shoulder. Ensurethat theanchorageis correctlylocated in oneof theheight positions beforedriving. For childrenand young adults wheretheseat belt cannot beproperlypositioned, theuseof abooster seat appropriateto theageof the childis recommended. Seat belts 38 Lap belts Therear central seatingpositionis fittedwith alapbelt. To adjust, pull theslider (arrowedin illustration) alongthebelt and feedthe webbingthrough thebuckleuntil thebelt is comfortablytight. Insert themetal tongue plateinto thelock nearest thecentreof the seat, and fit as lowas possibleon thehips (never on theabdomen). WARNING Seat belts are designed to bear upon the bony structure of the body (pelvis, chest and shoulders), and can only be worn safely with the seats in a normal, upright, position. ALWAYS fit the lap strap as low on the hips as possible (never across the abdomen) and ensure that the diagonal belt passes across the shoulder without slipping off or pressing on the neck. ALWAYS ensure that any adjustable seat back is never reclined more than 15 degrees from the upright position, when the vehicle is in motion. Seat belts are only effective when they are properly positioned on the body - a reclined seat could allow a passenger to slip under either the shoulder or the lap belt. Seat belts 39 WARNING DO NOT fit more than one person into a belt; this could result in the occupants striking each other and causing injury in the event of a crash. DO NOT use, or attempt to fit, a seat belt that is twisted or obstructed in any way that could impede its smooth operation. If a belt is twisted, it must be straightened before use. Using a twisted or obstructed seat belt could increase the risk of injury in a crash. ALWAYS use the seat belt lock (buckle) nearest the wearer. If the belt is locked in the wrong place, the seat belt will not fit correctly and may ride up over the abdomen, causing serious internal injury in a crash. DO NOT wear the shoulder belt under your arm. In an accident this could increase your chances of being injured. Wearing seat belts during pregnancy Theseat belts havebeendesignedfor all adults, includingpregnant women. In acrash situationanyoccupant is less likelyto be injuredwhilecorrectlyrestrainedbyaseat belt. However, pregnant women shouldwear thelapbelt as lowon thehips as possibleto avoidpressureon theabdomen. Womenshouldconsult their doctor to establishthebest useof seat belts during pregnancy. Seat belts 40 CHILD RESTRAINTS FOR SMALL CHILDREN AND BABIES Infants and childrentoo small for adult seat belts shouldberestrainedin achildsafetyseat or restraint systemappropriateto their ageand/or size, and whichis approvedfor usein your vehicle. Always ensurethat themanufacturers fittinginstructions arefollowedexactly. WARNING UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD A REARWARD FACING CHILD SEAT BE INSTALLED IN ANY FRONT PASSENGER SEAT POSITION. DO NOT allow a baby or infant to be carried on the lap. The force of a crash can increase effective body weight by as much as 30 times, making it impossible to hold on to the child. Young adults and children typically require the use of a booster seat appropriate to their age and size, thereby enabling the seat belts to be properly fitted, reducing the risk of injury in a crash. DO NOT use a child seat that hooks over the seat back. This type of seat cannot be satisfactorily secured, and is unlikely to be safe for your child. Never leave a child unattended in your vehicle. Seat belt locking mechanism Theseat belts fittedto thetwo outer rear seats, haveaspecial lockingmechanism, whichaids thesecuringof childrestraint systems. Themechanismis usedto securea childrestraint as follows: 1. Attachtheseat belt to thechildrestraint in accordancewith themanufacturers instructions. 2. Insert themetal tongueof theseat belt into thelock ensuringthat it engages with aclick. 3. Pull on theshoulder sectionof thebelt until it is fullyextended. 4. Allowthebelt to retract. A clicking sound will confirmthat themechanismhas engaged. 5. Removeall slackfromthemechanism, by pullingupwards on theshoulder belt, immediatelyabovethechildrestraint. 6. Ensurethat thechildrestraint is held securelyin place; if not, unlatchthebelt and repeat steps 1 to 6. Thecentrerear seatingpositionis fittedwith a lapbelt whichcanbemanuallytightenedto securetheinfant or childrestraint system. Older childrenshouldusethelap/shoulder belt fittedto theouter seatingpositions. NOTE: Some child seat manufacturers recommend the installation of a top tether strap that is mounted to the vehicle body. Some may also provide generic hardware to install the tether to the vehicle body. INSTALLATION OF THIS HARDWARE WILL DAMAGE THE HEADLINER OF THE VEHICLE. Such damage will not be covered under warranty. For cost and installation of Land Rover approved mounts, please contact your Land Rover Centre or retailer. Seat belts 41 CARE & MAINTENANCE OF SEAT BELTS WARNING DO NOT allow foreign matter (particularly sugary food and drink particles) to enter the seat belt locks - such substances can render the locks inoperative. Regularly inspect the belt webbing for signs of fraying, cuts and wear, also paying particular attention to the condition of the fixing points and adjusters. DO NOT bleach or dye the webbing. Clean the webbing using warm water and non-detergent soap only - allow to dry naturally and DO NOT retract or use the belts until they are completely dry. Always replace a seat belt that has withstood the strain of an impact or shows signs of fraying. Testing inertia reel belts Fromtimeto time, carryout thefollowing tests: 1. Withtheseat belt fastened, givethe webbingnear thebuckleaquick upward pull. Thebucklemust remainsecurely locked. 2. Withthewebbinghalf unreeled, hold the tongueplateand giveit aquick forward pull. Themechanismmust lock automaticallyand prevent anyfurther unreelingof thebelt. 3. Withtheseat belt unfastened, unreel the webbingto thelimit of its travel. Check that unreelingis freefromsnatches and snags. If aseat belt shouldfail anyof thesetests, contact your dealer immediately. SRS/Airbag 42 Theairbagsupplementaryrestraint system(SRS) provides additional protectionfor thedriver and front seat passenger, in theevent of a collisionor severefrontal impact on thevehicle. Always remember; the SRS/airbags are a supplementary restraint system providing ADDITIONAL protection in certain types of frontal impact collisions only - they DO NOT replace the need to wear a seat belt. For maximum safety protection in all crash situations, seat belts must be worn! How the SRS/airbag works Theairbagsupplementaryrestraint system (labelledSRS), includes twin airbagmodules (shownin illustration) for thedriver and the front seat passenger. In theevent of acollisioninvolvingafrontal impact, theairbagdiagnostic control unit, monitors thespeedof decelerationcausedby theimpact, to determinewhether the SRS/airbagshouldbeactivated. If thereis sufficient deceleration, thesystem causes both airbags to inflate. Inflationis instantaneous and accompaniedbyaloud noise. Also evident aretraces of smokeand powder, whichdo not indicateamalfunction of theairbagor thepresenceof fire. After inflation, theairbagwill immediately deflatetherebyensuringthat visibilityis not impaired. NOTE: The SRS/airbag is not designed to activate in all frontal impacts; most minor frontal impacts, heavy braking and driving over pot holes will not result in sufficient deceleration to cause the airbags to inflate. This does not indicate that there is a fault with the system. However, if, as a result of an impact, you believe the airbags should have deployed and they failed to do so, please call 1(800)637-6837 for advice, or to arrange for a Land Rover representative to inspect the vehicle to determine whether the system operated correctly. SRS/Airbag 43 WARNING Following inflation, some SRS/airbag components are hot - DO NOT touch until they have cooled. Even with SRS/airbag equipment fitted, seat belts must ALWAYS be worn because: An airbag will only provide additional protection in certain types of frontal collisions. NO protection is afforded against the effects of side or rear impacts, roll over accidents, or minor frontal impacts. Inflation and deflation take place instantaneously and will not provide protection against the effects of secondary impacts that can occur during multiple vehicle collisions. CHILD SEATS WARNING DO NOT USE A REAR FACING CHILD SEAT IN ANY FRONT SEAT LOCATION. If the passenger airbag inflates, a child in a rear facing child restraint could be seriously injured. Children could be endangered in a crash if their child restraints are not properly secured in the vehicle. Be sure to install child restraints according to the manufacturers instructions. Under no circumstances should a rear facing child seat be installed facing forward in any seating position. WARNING The airbag module inflates with considerable speed and force. For your safety: An inflating airbag can cause facial abrasions and other injuries. The injurious affects of airbag inflation can be minimised, by ensuring driver and passenger are seated correctly, with the seat moved back as far as is practical, and the seat belts worn correctly. NEVER attach accessory items to an airbag module cover, or place items of hand luggage or any objects on the top of a module cover; these could interfere with the inflation of the airbag, or if the airbag inflates, be propelled inside the vehicle causing injury to the occupants. DO NOT allow occupants to obstruct the operation of the airbag modules by placing their feet, knees or any part of their person in contact with, or close to, an airbag module while the vehicle is moving. Activation of an airbag creates dust, causing possible breathing difficulties for asthma suffers or other people with respiratory problems. If an airbag is activated, any occupant who suffers from breathing difficulties should; either leave the vehicle as quickly as possible, or obtain fresh air by fully opening the windows or doors. Both front seating positions are equipped with knee bolsters to provide knee protection in the event of an impact. DO NOT modify the bolsters, or mount after market equipment on or behind them. SRS/Airbag 44 SRS/airbag warning light Whenever thestarter switchis turnedto positionII, thediagnostic control unit monitors thereadiness of thesystems electrical circuits. Theelements of thesystem beingmonitoredinclude: SRS warninglight Rotarycoupler Airbagmodules Airbagdiagnostic control unit Airbagwiringharness A warninglight mounted on theinstrument panel will alert you to anymalfunctionof the SRS/airbag.

Thewarninglight fails to illuminatewhen thestarter switchis turnedto positionII. Thewarninglight fails to extinguishwithin approximatelyfiveseconds after the starter switchis turnedto positionII. Thewarninglight illuminates whilethe vehicleis beingdriven. WARNING DO NOT attempt to service, repair, replace, or modify any part of the SRS/airbag; tampering could cause inadvertent activation of the system, resulting in personal injury. Service information Certaincomponents of theSRS/airbagmust bereplacedbyaLand Rover dealer after 10 years fromthedateof manufacture(shownon thecertificationplateon therear faceof the left hand front door).

Starting & driving 80 STARTING WARNING The catalytic converter is easily damaged by improper use, particularly if the wrong fuel is used, or if an engine misfire occurs. Beforestartingtheengineand driving, ENSUREthat you arefamiliar with the precautions shown under Catalytic converter later in this section. In particular, you shouldbeawarethat if the enginefails to start, continueduseof the starter mayresult in unburnt fuel damaging thecatalytic converter. Starting procedure 1. Check that thehandbrakeis appliedand that thegear selector is in P or N. 2. Switchoff all unnecessaryelectrical equipment. 3. Turn thestarter switchto positionII and then on to positionIII to operatethe starter motor; DONOT press the accelerator pedal whilestarting. RELEASE THE KEY as soon as theengineis running. In temperateclimates DONOT operatethe starter for longer than 5 seconds; if theengine fails to start, switchoff and wait for 10 seconds beforere-usingthestarter. Notethat continueduseof thestarter will dischargethe battery. In temperateclimates thebattery chargingand oil pressurewarninglights shouldextinguishas soon as theengineis running. In verycoldclimates, if theenginefails to start after threeattempts, fullydepress the accelerator and operatethestarter continually for up to 30 seconds, or until theengineruns. WARNING Exhaust fumes contain poisonous substances which can cause unconsciousness and may even be fatal. DO NOT inhale exhaust gases. DO NOT start or leave the engine running in an enclosed unventilated area, or drive with the tailgate door open. DO NOT modify the exhaust system from the original design. Repair exhaust system or body leaks immediately. If you think exhaust fumes are entering the vehicle have the cause determined and corrected immediately. Cold climates In verycoldclimates thebatterychargingand oil pressurewarninglights maytakeseveral seconds to extinguish. Similarly, engine crankingtimes will also increase; at -22 F (-30 C) thestarter motor mayneedto be operatedcontinuouslyfor as long as 30 seconds beforetheenginewill start. For this reason, ensurethat all non-essential electrical equipment is switchedoff. Additionally, in verycoldtemperatures, useof a110V ACblock heater will improvethe engines startingcharacteristics. Your Land Rover dealer canadviseyou about thesupply and useof ablock heater. Starting & driving 81 DRIVING WARNING Your vehicle has a higher ground clearance and, therefore, a higher centre of gravity than ordinary passenger cars, to enable the vehicle to perform in a wide variety of off-road applications. An advantage of the higher ground clearance, is a better view of the road allowing you to anticipate problems. The Range Rover is not designed for cornering at the same speed as conventional passenger cars, any more than a low slung sports car is designed to perform satisfactorily under off-road conditions. As with other vehicles of this type, failure to operate the Range Rover correctly may result in loss of control or vehicle rollover. Before driving Learnthelayout and functionof all the instruments, warninglights and controls. Adjust theseat to acomfortabledriving position, fromwhichyou canensurefull control of thevehicle. Always start thevehicleand operatethe controls fromthedrivingposition. Instruments & warning lights Beforedriving, it is important to fully understandthefunctionof theinstruments and warninglights describedin section2. NOTE: Red warning lights are of particular importance, illumination indicates that a fault exists. If a red light illuminates always stop the vehicle and seek qualified assistance before continuing. Shift interlock Your vehicleis fittedwith gear changing interlocks, whichrequirethestarter switchto beturnedon and thebrakepedal depressed, beforethegear selector canbemovedfrom theP (Park) position. WARNING When the engine has started, BEFORE moving the gear selector lever out of P or N, it is important that both handbrake and footbrake are firmly applied and that the accelerator pedal is not depressed - otherwise, the vehicle may move immediately if the gear lever is moved to any of the drive positions (1, 2, 3, D or R). This is particularly important when the engine is cold because the engine will be idling at a faster speed than normal. Use the footbrake to control the vehicle, until the engine is warm and running at normal speed. Starting & driving 82 Warming-up In theinterests of fuel economy, it is advisable to drivethevehiclestraight away, rememberingthat harshaccelerationor labouringtheenginebeforethenormal operatingtemperaturehas beenreachedcan damagetheengine. Whentheengineis cold, engineidlespeeds will befaster than normal. Under these circumstances, usethefootbraketo control thevehicleuntil theengineis warmand runningat normal speed, and beawareof the needto takeadditional carewhen manoeuvringthevehicle. Vehicle height Theoverall height of your vehicleexceeds that of an ordinarycar (evenwhen ACCESS ride height is selected). Always beawareof the height of your vehicleand checktheavailable clearancebeforedrivingthrough low entrances. This is particularlyimportant if the vehicleis fittedwith aroof rackor if the sunroof is open. Power assisted steering Thehydraulic power-assistedsteeringis equippedwith apositivecentrefeel characteristic, whichgives enhancedvehicle stabilityat high speeds and in cross winds. Power assistanceis progressivelyappliedthe morethesteeringwheel is turned. For example: wheremanual steeringeffort would normallybegreatest (at slowspeeds on maximumlock), power assistanceis at its greatest. Similarly, whereonlyminimal steeringeffort would normallyberequired(at high speedwith thewheels straight ahead), then power assistanceis also minimal, thus enablingthedriver to benefit fromapparently consistent steeringeffort at all times. NOTE: Power assistance is dependent on the engine running. If the engine is not running, greater effort will be required to steer the vehicle. Auxiliary equipment WARNING Do NOT use auxiliary equipment, such as a roller generator, which is driven by one wheel of the vehicle, as this could cause failure of the gearbox differential. In some cases the vehicle may attempt to drive itself forward. Some local jurisdictions require emission testing using a two wheel roller dynamometer. The Range Rover is equipped with permanent 4-wheel drive and cannot be safely operated on these machines. For more information regarding safe emission testing of your vehicle consult your local Land Rover dealer or Centre. Starting & driving 83 Parking After bringingthevehicleto astop, ALWAYS applythehandbrakeand select P before releasingthefootbrakeand switchingoff the engine. Switching off After selectinggear positionP, returnthe starter switchto positionI and then to position0 to removethekey. NOTE: The starter key cannot be removed unless the gear selector is in P (park). BREAKING-IN Proper breaking-inwill haveadirect bearing on thereliabilityand smooth runningof your vehiclethroughout its life. In particular, theengine, gearbox, brakes and tyres needtimeto bed-inand adjust to the demands of everydaymotoring. It is, therefore, essential to drivewith consideration for thebreaking-inprocess for at least thefirst 500 miles (800 km) and observethefollowing advice: LIMIT maximumroadspeedto 70 mph (110 km/h). Initially, drivethevehicleon a light throttleand onlyincreaseengine speeds graduallyoncetherunning-in distancehas beencompleted. DONOT operateat full throttleor allowthe engineto labour in anygear. AVOIDfast accelerationand heavybraking except in emergencies. FUEL ECONOMY Fuel consumptionis influencedbytwo major factors: Howyour vehicleis maintained. Howyou driveyour vehicle. To obtainoptimumfuel economy, it is essential that your vehicleis maintainedin accordancewith themanufacturers service schedule. Drivingwith thegearshift in D in theHIGH range, but not in sport mode, will providethe best fuel economy. Items suchas, theconditionof theair cleaner element, tyrepressures and wheel alignment canhaveasignificant effect on fuel consumption. But aboveall, thewayin which you driveis most important. Thefollowing hints mayhelpyou to obtainevenbetter value fromyour motoring: Avoidunnecessary, short, start-stop journeys. Avoidfast starts byacceleratinggentlyand smoothlyfromrest. Do not drivein thelower gears for longer than necessary. Decelerategentlyand avoidsuddenand heavybraking. Anticipateobstructions and adjust your speedaccordinglywell in advance. Catalytic converter 84 CATALYTIC CONVERTER Theexhaust systemincorporates acatalytic converter, whichconverts poisonous exhaust emissions fromtheengineinto environmentallyless harmful gases, thereby reducingatmospheric pollution. WARNING The catalytic converter can be easily damaged through improper use, particularly if the wrong fuel is used or if an engine misfire occurs. For this reason, it is VERY IMPORTANT that you heed the precautions which follow: Fuel UseONLY fuel recommendedfor your vehicle. Starting the engine DONOT continueoperatingthestarter switchif theenginefails to start after a fewattempts (unburnt fuel maybedrawn into theexhaust system, thereby damagingthecatalyst); seekqualified assistance. Whenstartingacoldengine, DONOT drive if amisfireis suspected; seekqualified assistance. Catalytic converter 85 Driving Providedtheenginehas reachedits normal operatingtemperature, if amisfire is suspected, or if thevehiclelacks power whiledriving, it maybedrivenSLOWLY (at riskof damagingthecatalyst) to a Land Rover dealer for assistance. NEVER allowavehicleto run out of fuel (theresultant misfirecoulddestroythe catalyst). Engines burningexcessiveoil (bluesmoke fromtheexhaust) will progressively reducecatalyst efficiency. On rough terrain, DONOT allowthe undersideof thevehicleto besubjectedto heavyimpacts whichcoulddamagethe catalytic converter. DONOT overloador excessivelyrevthe engine. WARNING Exhaust system temperatures can be extremely high; DO NOT park on ground where combustible materials such as dry grass or leaves could come into contact with the exhaust system (in very dry weather a fire could result). Switching off DONOT switchoff theenginewhilea forwardor reversedrivegear is selected. Vehicle maintenance Anyenginemisfirewhichcauses the Check Engineindicator to flash(see Warninglights), loss of engine performanceor enginerun-on, could seriouslydamagethecatalytic converter. For this reason, it is vital that unqualified persons do not tamper with theengine, and that regular systematic maintenanceis carriedout byaLand Rover dealer. DONOT run theenginewith asparkplug or HT leadremoved, or useanydevicethat requires an insert into asparkplug. Fuel 86 USE ONLY UNLEADED FUEL Octane requirements Always usePREMIUM UNLEADEDGASOLINE with aCLCor AKI octaneratingof 90 or 92 (95 or 96 RON). NOTE: Federal law requires that gasoline octane ratings be posted on the pumps. The Cost of Living Council (CLC) octane rating or Anti Knock Index (AKI) octane rating shown is an average of Research Octane Number (RON) and Motor Octane Number (MON). Usingunleadedfuel with an octanerating lower than that recommended, cancause persistent heavyengineknock (ametallic rappingsound). If severe, this canleadto enginedamage. If heavyengineknock is detectedwhen using recommendedoctaneratedfuel, or if steady engineknockingis present whilemaintaining asteadyspeedon level roads, contact your dealer for adviceas soon as possible. Failure to takemeasures to eliminateeither condition constitutes misuseof thevehicle! NOTE: An occasional, light, engine knock experienced ONLY for short periods while accelerating or climbing hills is acceptable. WARNING DO NOT use leaded fuel! Your engine is designed to use unleaded fuel ONLY. Unleaded fuel is essential for proper operation of the emission control system. Evenaverysmall quantityof leadedfuel will damageyour vehicles emissioncontrol systemand couldinvalidatetheemissions warranty. In addition, leadedfuel will damage theoxygensensors in thefuel injection systemand also seriouslydamagethecatalyst in thecatalytic converter. Reformulatedgasolines and gasolines that containdetergents, anti-corrosionand stabilityadditives arerecommended- theywill helpyour vehiclemaintainthecorrect level of emissions and engineperformance. Fuel systemcleaningagents shouldbe avoided, as manyof theseproducts canbe harmful to gaskets and other materials usedin fuel systemcomponents. Driveability If you encounter driveability, startingand stallingproblems, especiallyin high ambient temperatures or at high altitudewhen the engineis cold, it maybecausedbypoor qualityfuel. Tryan alternativebrand, and if the problempersists, seekadvicefromyour dealer. Fuel 87 Gasoline/oxygenated fuel blends To avoidinvalidatingthevehiclewarranty, use ONLY fuels blendedwithinthefollowing limits: 1. Up to 15%of Methyl TertiaryButyl Ether (MTBE) and unleadedfuel mix. 2. Up to 15%of Ethyl TertiaryButyl Ether (ETBE) and unleadedfuel mix. 3. Up to 10%of Ethanol (Ethyl or grain alcohol) and unleadedfuel mix. Methanol/unleaded fuel blends In someareas it is possibleto buyunleaded fuel that is blendedwith up to 5%Methanol (Methyl or wood alcohol) and cosolvents and corrosionpreventatives. Usingtheseblends cancausedriveabilityproblems and damage to thefuel systemcomponents. Their usemay also invalidatethevehiclewarranty. WHEREVER POSSIBLE, AVOIDUSINGFUEL CONTAININGMETHANOL! Octane enhancers Theuseof octaneenhancers is not recommended, and mayinvalidatethevehicle warranty. WARNING Automotive fuels can cause serious injury, and even death if misused. Methanol/unleaded fuel blends, even in small amounts, can cause blindness and possible death if swallowed. Additionally, take precautions to avoid methanol from coming into contact with the skin. FUEL FILLER FLAP Thefuel filler is locatedin therear right-hand fender. Press thefuel filler switch(shownin illustration) to open thefiller flap. Thefuel filler switchmayonlybeoperated with thestarter keyturnedto position0. It will not operatewhen theengineis running. GAS STATION SAFETY Petroleumgases arehighlyflammable and, in confinedspaces, arealso extremelyexplosive. Always takesensible precautions when refuelling: Switchoff theengine. Do not smokeor useanakedflame or light. Takecarenot to spill fuel. Do not overfill thetank. Fuel 88 WARNING To avoid any sudden discharge of fuel caused by excessive air pressure, the cap is designed to allow the fuel tank to vent during the first half turn. DO NOT fully remove the cap until pressure has been released. Place the cap in the retaining bracket on the rear of the flap whilst refuelling. Unless absolutely necessary, the fuel filler cap should not be removed unless the vehicle is standing on level ground. DO NOT OVERFILL! Fuel filling Fillingstationpumps areequippedwith automatic cut-off sensingto avoidfuel spillage; DONOT attempt to fill thetank beyondthis point or spillagecouldresult due to expansionof thefuel. Thereduceddiameter filler neck accepts ONLY anarrowfiller nozzleof thetypefound on pumps that deliver unleadedfuel. WARNING DO NOT fully fill the tank if the vehicle is to be parked in direct sunlight or high ambient temperature - expansion of the fuel could cause spillage. WARNING Ensure the filler cap is fitted correctly after refueling, otherwise the Check Engine warning light may illuminate. Empty fuel tank DO NOT RUN THE FUEL TANK DRY! Runningthefuel tank drycouldcreatean enginemisfirecapableof damagingthe catalytic converter. It will also causetheCheck Enginewarninglight to illuminate. INERTIA SWITCH For informationabout theoperationof the inertiaswitchseeLocks & alarm. Automatic transmission 89 AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION Theautomatic transmissionfeatures an H-gate gear selector mechanism. This combines theoperatingmechanismof both themaingearboxand thetransfer gears, and enables thegear selector positions, for both thehigh and lowgear ranges, to belocated sidebyside. Gear selector lever Movetheselector lever forwardor back along thedrivers sideof theH, to select thehigh rangeof gears. Similarly, bymovingthelever to thepassenger side, thelowrangecanbe selectedinstead. TheH-gate illuminationis colour codedto identifythetwo ranges: high rangeilluminationis greenand lowrangeis amber. A springloadedcatchbuilt into thehandleof thegear selector lever, restricts movement of thelever, therebypreventinginadvertent gear selection. Thecatchhas two pressures: thefirst pressureenables gear changes to bemadewithinasinglerangeof gears (HighrangeOR Lowrange). thesecondpressureenables theselector to bemovedfromonerangeof gears to another (ie. fromHighTOLow). NOTE: Gear selection between D and 3 (High range) or 4 and 3 (Low range) may be made without pressing the catch. HIGH RANGE GEARS Usethehigh rangefor roaddrivingand also for off-roaddrivingacross dry, level terrain. Themessagecentrewill momentarilydisplay HIGH, as soon as Highrangeis selected, and then displaythegear selected(eg. 3). WARNING DO NOT attempt to change to LOW range gears for normal road driving. Automatic transmission 90 LOW RANGE GEARS ONLY uselowrangegears in situations where lowspeedmanoeuvringis necessary, suchas reversingatrailer or negotiatingaboulder strewnriver bed; also uselowrangefor more extremeoff-roadconditions whereprogress in high rangecannot bemaintained. Whenlowrangeis selected, themessage centredisplays LOW momentarily, and then L is displayedalongwith therelevant gear selected(eg.L2). High/low range change warning An audiblewarningwill sound whilst achange fromonegear rangeto another is attempted. Thewarningwill ceaseoncethechangeis completeor cancelled. Using the H-gate To makeachangefromhigh to lowor vice versa, the vehicle must be stationary! Applythebrakes and select N. Ensurethevehicleis stationary, then fully depress thecatchbuilt into thehandleof theselector lever and movethelever across thecross-pieceof theH-gate. On reachingtherequiredgear rangeposition, theH-gateilluminationand thetransfer gearboxwarninglight (intheinstrument pack) start to flashand theaudible warningsounds. Wait until illuminationof thenewgear rangeselector positions is constant and thetransfer gearboxwarninglight extinguishes (theaudiblewarningwill silenceand Highor Lowis displayedin the messagecentre), beforeselectingthe desiredgear in thenewrangeand releasingthebrakes. If thevehicleis movingwhen atransfer gear changeis attempted, themessage centrewill displaySLOWDOWN and the audiblewarningwill sound. If thegear rangeis changedand forward or reversedriveengagedwithout first waitingin N for theilluminationto stop flashingand theaudiblewarningto stop, themessagecentrewill displaySELECT NEUTRAL and awarningwill sound - reselect N and wait for rangechange completionbeforeselectingtherequired drivinggear. WARNING To avoid personal injury and possible damage to the transmission, it is essential to ensure that any change of gear range is fully completed before releasing the brake and driving, i. e: Illumination of the gear range selector positions is continuous. The transfer gearbox warning light has extinguished. The audible warning is silent. The message centre displays the appropriate message - HIGH or LOW. Automatic transmission 91 Selector lever positions (high range) P Park In this positionthetransmissionis lockedto prevent thevehiclefromrollingaway. Select ONLY with thevehiclestationary. R Reverse Select ONLY when thevehicleis stationary. N Neutral Usethis positionwhen thevehicleis stationaryand theengineis to idlefor ashort period(eg. at traffic lights). D Drive In high range, select D for all normal driving on good roadsurfaces; fullyautomatic gear changingoccurs on all forwardgears accordingto vehiclespeedand accelerator position. 3 (1st, 2nd and 3rd gears) Automatic gear changingis limitedto first, secondand thirdgears only. In high range, usein congestedtraffic conditions and for town driving. 2 (1st and 2nd gears) Automatic gear changingis limitedto first and secondratios only. In high range, usewhen drivingup steepgradients and for negotiating verynarrowtwistingroads. This positionalso provides moderateenginebrakingfor descendingslopes. 1 (1st gear only) Useon veryseveregradients, particularly when towing, and when maximumengine brakingis required. NOTE: If position 2 or 1 is selected from D or 3 while the vehicle is travelling at high speed in high range, then, depending on vehicle speed, third gear will immediately engage. Progressive deceleration will then cause downshifts into second and then first gear when appropriately low road speeds are reached. WARNING When parked always leave the vehicle with the gear selector in P (Park), and the parking brake applied, even when the starter key is not removed. NOTE: The starter key cannot be removed unless the gear selector is in P (park). Automatic transmission 92 Starting and driving Drivers unfamiliar with theperformance characteristics of automatic gearboxes should thoroughlyfamiliarisethemselves with the followinginstructions beforedriving. Beforestartingtheengine, ensurethat both footbrakeand handbrakeareapplied. After startingtheengine, KEEP THE BRAKES APPLIEDwhilst movingthe selector lever to therequireddrive position. Keepthebrakes applieduntil you are readyto move- remember, onceadrive positionis selected, an automatic will tend to creepforward(or backward). Never rev theenginewhileselectinga forwardor reversedrivegear, or whilethe vehicleis stationarywith adrivegear selected- remember, an automatic will moveimmediatelytheaccelerator pedal is pressed. Gear changing in high range Theroadspeeds at whichgear changes take placevaryaccordingto thepositionof the accelerator; minimumaccelerationwill result in gear changes at lowroadspeeds, while greater throttleopenings will causethe gearboxto delaygear changes until faster roadspeeds havebeenreached(thereby increasingacceleration). Withpractice, gear changes canbemadeto occur at awiderangeof different roadspeeds, dependingon accelerator pedal pressure. On long inclines, an automatic gearboxwill sometimes changeback and forth between gears. This occurs becausethetransmission does not includearatio that is preciselyright for theparticular inclineand vehicleloading circumstances. Excessivegear changingis wasteful of fuel and results in aloss of momentum; it canbepreventedbyselecting the3 or 2 positions whichlimit thegearbox to lower ratios. Kick-down To providerapidaccelerationfor overtaking, kick theaccelerator pedal to thefull extent of its travel in asingle, quick movement (this is known as kick-down). Up to acertainspeed, this will causean immediatedownshift into thelowest appropriategear, followedbyrapid acceleration. Oncethepedal is relaxed, normal gear changespeeds will resume(dependent on roadspeedand accelerator pedal position). Automatic transmission 93 MODE SWITCH In Highrange, themodeswitchis usedto select Sport mode. In Lowrange, pressingthesameswitch selects Manual mode. Pressingtheswitchasecondtimereturns the gearboxto its normal operation. Sport mode Whenacceleratingin Sport mode, gear changingis delayedto makeoptimumuseof theengines power. Select when increased accelerationis required, or when negotiating long inclines or twistingroads. However, you shouldbeawarethat drivingin Sport mode will increasefuel consumption. To select Sport mode, press theMode switchoncewhilst thegearboxis in High range(themessagecentrewill displayS alongwith theselectedgear, eg.S3). Manual mode Press themodeswitchwhilst thegearboxis in Lowrangeto select Manual mode; this enables thetransmissionto functionas a manual gearbox, providingmaximumvehicle control and enginebraking- ideal for usein severeoff-roadconditions (themessage centredisplays LM alongwith theselected gear, eg.LM3). NOTE: Changing from High to Low range (or vice versa) will automatically cancel Sport or Manual mode. Towing for recovery If it is necessaryfor thevehicleto betowed on all four wheels, transfer neutral MUST be selected. (SeeEmergency towing). Braking system 94 FOOT BRAKE As asafetyprecaution, thehydraulic braking systemoperates through dual circuits. If one circuit fails theother will continueto function, but increasedbrakepedal travel, greater pedal effort and longer stoppingdistances will be experienced. Brake Pads Brakepads requireaperiodof beddingin. You shouldavoidheavybrakingexcept in emergencies for at least thefirst 500 miles (800 km). Remember that regular servicingis vital to ensurethat thebrakepads areexaminedfor wear and changedperiodicallyto ensurelong termsafetyand optimumperformance. WARNING DO NOT rest your foot on the brake pedal while travelling as this may overheat the brakes, reduce their efficiency and cause excessive wear. NEVER place additional floor matting or any other obstruction under the brake pedal. This restricts pedal travel and braking efficiency. NEVER move a vehicle without the engine running because braking assistance will not be available. The pedal brakes will still function, but more pressure will be required. Brake warning light WARNING If the warning light comes on when driving, and the handbrake is fully released, a fault is indicated. Be prepared for increased brake pedal travel and then stop the vehicle and seek qualified assistance before continuing. PARKING BRAKE Unlikemost other vehicles, theparkingbrake on your RangeRover operates on therear propeller shaft, and NOT on theroadwheels. This mayresult in slight movement of the vehicleafter thebrakeis applied. Applytheparkingbrakebypullingback the lever. To release, pull thelever back slightly and hold thereleasebutton depressedwhile allowingthelever to fullyreturnto its off position. WARNING ALWAYS apply the parking brake fully whenever you park. DO NOT apply the parking brake while the vehicle is in motion (except in an emergency) as this could result in loss of vehicle control and damage to the transmission. Do not rely on the parking brake to operate effectively if the vehicle has been subjected to immersion in mud and water. (see Off-road driving section). Braking system 95 Wet conditions WARNING Driving through water or even very heavy rain may adversely affect braking efficiency. Always dry the braking surfaces by intermittent light application of the brakes, first ensuring that you are at a safe distance from other road users. ANTI-LOCK BRAKING Thepurposeof anti-lockbraking(ABS) is to allowefficient brakingwithout wheel locking, therebyallowingthedriver to retain steerabilityand control of thevehicle. WARNING ABS cannot overcome the physical limitations of stopping the vehicle in too short a distance, cornering at too high a speed, or the danger of aquaplaning, i. e. where a layer of water prevents adequate contact between the tyres and the road surface. The fact that a vehicle is fitted with ABS must never tempt the driver into taking risks that could affect his/her safety or that of other road users. In all cases, it remains the drivers responsibility to drive within normal safety margins, having due consideration for the prevailing weather and traffic conditions. The driver should always take account of the surface to be travelled over and the fact that brake pedal reactions will be different to those experienced on a non-ABS vehicle. ABS incorporates amonitoringsystemwhich checks that all theelectrical components are in workingorder beforeeachjourneyand also at frequent intervals whilethevehicleis in use. Thewarninglights on theinstrument panel arepart of this systemand it is essential that thedriver observes theseand fully understands their functions - thesearefully describedin Section2 of thehandbook under Warning lights. WARNING DO NOT drive until the red brake warning light has extinguished (with the parking brake released). If the light stays on or illuminates whilst driving, this indicates either a malfunction of the system or low fluid level in the reservoir. In this case ABS control is not available. Stop as soon as safety permits and seek qualified assistance before continuing. Braking system 96 ABS in action! Under normal drivingconditions (where sufficient roadsurfacefrictionexists to reliablybringthevehicleto ahalt without the wheels locking), ABS will not bebrought into operation. However, shouldthebrakingforceexceedthe availableadhesionbetweenthetyres and the roadsurface, then ABS will automatically comeinto operation; brakepedal feel will harden, and thesound of solenoidcycling maybeheardas theABS regulates braking pressureto ensurewheel rotation. Littlefurther pedal travel will bepossibleat this point, but effort on thepedal canbe variedto influencebrakingwhiletheABS retains control. Duringbraking, somevibrationmaybefelt through thebrakepedal. This is anormal result of thesystemregulatingbraking pressure. However, frequent vibration indicates ahazardous surfaceunder theroad wheels and is awarningto thedriver to adjust speedto suit theroadsurfaceand traffic conditions. WhenABS stops operating, extrainitial pedal travel will beexperiencedand thefeel of the brakepedal will revert to its non-ABS condition. WARNING Do not pump the brake pedal at any time, as this will interrupt ABS operation and may increase braking distance. Ensure there are no obstructions beneath the brake pedal, which may prevent full travel, ie. additional floor mats. Drivers who become accustomed to driving a vehicle equipped with ABS, should exercise caution when driving a non-ABS vehicle. Braking system 97 Additional operating information Under ABS control, heavybrakingon adry roadmayproducetyrenoiseand slight markingof theroadsurface. Neither need causeconcern. Solenoidcyclingmaysometimes beheard when drivingon veryrough roads or while feathering (light braking) over irregular or pittedsurfaces. This is part of thenormal ABS function. If excessivepedal travel is experienced, full brakingwill still beavailable; push the pedal through thefreemovement until resistanceis felt, then applythenecessary forceto obtainbraking. However, as soon as safetypermits, stop thevehicleand seekqualifiedassistancebefore continuing. On soft surfaces suchas powderysnow, sandor gravel, and also on veryrough surfaces, brakingdistances with ABS may begreater than thoseachievablewith a non-ABS system. This is becausethe natural actionof lockedwheels on soft surfaces is to buildup awedgeof material in front of thewheels whichassists in stopping(however, ABS will continueto providebetter stabilityand steering control). If thevehicleis brought to rest on asteep slopewhichhas averylow-friction surface, thevehiclemayslidewith the wheels lockedbecausethereis no wheel rotationto signal movement to theABS. If this occurs, momentarilyreleasethe brakes (to permit somewheel rotation), beforere-applyingthemto allowABS to regaincontrol. Whereaslowdescent is necessary, engageaLOWrangegear with theenginerunningto allowacontrolled descent (seeOff-road driving for further information). WARNING ABS is designed to operate only with genuine Land Rover parts, and the tyres and wheels specified in General data. The manufacturers cannot accept any responsibility for inefficient operation of the system, caused by modifications to the vehicle, or the fitting of non-approved components. Always consult your Land Rover dealer for advice. Traction control 98 ELECTRONIC TRACTION CONTROL Thepurposeof electronic tractioncontrol, is to aidtractionwhen onerear wheel spins whilst theother still has good grip, e.g, if one sideof thevehicleis on iceand theother is on tarmac. Thesystemworks byapplyingthe braketo aspinningrear wheel in order to transfer torqueto theother sideof theaxle. NOTE: Traction control only operates below approximately 30 mph (50 km/h). Theinstrument panel has atractioncontrol warninglight (TC) and, when appropriate, tractioncontrol messages will also be displayedin themessagecentre. Thewarninglight illuminates whenever thesystemis active (for aminimumof 2 seconds) and is accompaniedbythemessagecentre displayingTRACTION. In theunlikelyevent that tractioncontrol is usedcontinuouslyfor too long (inexcess of approximately1 minute), then thecontrol unit shuts down to allowcoolingand thewarninglight flashes for at least ten seconds; this is accompaniedby themessagecentredisplayingTRACTION OVERHEAT. If thereis afault with thesystem, then the warninglight will illuminatecontinuouslyand themessagecentredisplays TRACTION FAILURE. If this occurs, you shouldcontact your Land Rover dealer at theearliest opportunity. Cruise control 99 WARNING DO NOT use cruise control when using low range transfer gears or reverse gears. DO NOT use cruise control on winding or slippery road surfaces, or in traffic conditions where a constant speed cannot easily be maintained. DO NOT rest your foot under the accelerator pedal while cruise control is engaged - your foot could be trapped. ALWAYS switch off the master switch when you no longer intend to use cruise control. NOTE: Selecting Cruise control while the gearbox is in Sport mode will result in more frequent and harsher acceleration and gear changing. This is not recommended. CRUISE CONTROL Cruisecontrol enables thedriver to maintaina constant roadspeedwithout usingthe accelerator pedal. This is particularlyuseful for freewaycruising, or for anyjourneywhere aconstant speedcanbemaintainedfor a lengthyperiod. Thecruisecontrol systemhas threeswitches: amaster switchon thefasciapanel and two control switches, markedSET+ and RES (arrowedin illustration), mounted in the steeringwheel. To operate 1. Press themaster switch(theindicator light in theswitchilluminates). 2. Accelerateuntil thedesiredspeedis reached- this must beabovethesystems minimumoperational speedof 28 mph (45 km/h). 3. Press theSET+ switchto set thevehicle speedin thecruisecontrol systems memory. Cruisecontrol will nowmaintain that roadspeed, without theneedfor operationof theaccelerator. Withcruisecontrol operating, speedcanbe increasedtemporarily, e.g. for overtaking, by normal useof theaccelerator. Whenthe accelerator is released, roadspeedwill return to theselectedcruisingspeed. Cruise control 100 To reduce the cruising speed Usethebrakepedal to slowthevehicle, until therequiredspeedhas beenreached, then press theSET+ switchto establishanew cruisingspeed. Remember that cruisecontrol will not operateat speeds below28 mph (45 km/h). Alternatively, brieflypress theRES switch onceto cut off cruisecontrol; if thebrake pedal is not used, thevehiclewill slowdown gradually. Whenthedesiredspeedhas been reached, press theSET+ switchto establish thenewcruisingspeed. To increase the set cruising speed Press and hold theSET+ switch; thevehicle will accelerateautomatically. Releasethe switchas soon as thedesiredspeedhas been reached. Alternatively, theset speedcanbeincreased incrementally, bytapping theSET+ switch. For eachfivetaps, thespeedwill increaseby5 mph (8 km/h). Disengaging cruise control Cruisecontrol will automaticallydisengageif thebrakepedal is pressed, or when thegear selector lever is movedinto N. Alternatively, brieflypress theRES switch onceto cut off cruisecontrol; this allows the vehicleto slowdown gradually. If required, press theRES switchagainto re-engagecruisecontrol at thepreviously-set speed. NOTE: The speed held in the cruise control memory will be cancelled, when either the cruise control master switch, or the starter switch, are turned off. NOTE: Cruise control will disengage automatically, if your road speed falls to less than 75 per cent of the set speed (this could occur when towing uphill). Air suspension 101 Your vehicleis fittedwith an electronically controlledair suspensionsystem(EAS) which provides fivedifferent rideheight settings includingan Access mode. Thesesettings increaseor decreasetheheight and ground clearanceof your vehicleto copewith different drivingconditions. In addition, theEAS also provides automatic suspensionlevelling. Before operating EAS Remember, evenif achangeof rideheight is selected, it will NOT takeplace: If thetailgateor anydoor is open. Whilst thefootbrakeis continuously appliedfor less than 3 minutes. If theengineis not running(except for selectionof Access within40 seconds of switchingoff). If theAccess modeis required, ensurethe handbrakeis appliedand that thegear selector lever is movedto positionP. NOTE: Frequent changes between ride heights could cause the compressor to overheat. If this occurs, EAS will be fully operational again after a few minutes when the compressor has cooled. CONTROLS Ride height selector (1) Press and releasetheupper or lower arrowon therocker switchto raiseor lower thevehicle to thenext rideheight setting(therelevant indicator light will illuminate). Inhibit switch (2) Theindicator light in theswitchilluminates as abulb checkwhen thestarter is initiallyturned to positionII. Press theswitchto select Inhibit mode (indicator light illuminates). This will prevent automatic changes between Standardand Lowrideheight. Press theswitchagainto switchoff. NOTE: Even in Inhibit mode, the ride height can automatically change from Access/Crawl to the Low ride height and from Extended or High profile to High or Standard. Ride height indicator panel (3) All indicator lights illuminateas abulb check when thestarter switchis initiallyturnedto positionII and remainilluminateduntil the engineis started. Eachindicator light illuminates separately whileaheight settingis in operation. Whena changein height is activated, theindicator lights illuminatein thefollowingsequence: Thenewheight indicator light flashes. Whenthenewheight is reached, its indicator light stops flashingand illuminates continuously(theprevious indicator light extinguishes). Air suspension 102 Air suspension warning light Thewarninglight on the instrument panel illuminates as a bulb checkwhen thestarter switchis turned on and remains illuminateduntil two seconds after theenginehas started. In addition, thelight will illuminatewhilst drivingwhenever High or Extended ride heights areselected, and also if afault with theair suspensionsystemis detected. HEIGHT SETTINGS Extended ride height Approximately2.75 in (70 mm) aboveStandard. Extendedride height is selectedautomaticallyif thevehicle comes to ahalt as aresult of thechassis cominginto contact with theground. It CANNOT beselectedmanually(High indicator light flashes and theHigh suspensionwarninglight illuminates). Extended rideheight is automatically sustainedfor 10 minutes after whichit returns to High unless therideheight selector is usedto select adifferent setting. High ride height Approximately1.5 inches (40 mm) aboveStandard. Improves approachand departureangles (off-road) and is also recommendedfor wading. Can beselectedmanuallyunder 35 mph (55 km/h). If this speedis exceededEAS automaticallyreturns to Standard. NOTE: The air suspension warning light illuminates when this height is selected. WARNING High ride height must not be selected for driving on the public highway. Standard ride height Suitablefor most driving conditions and recommendedfor towing (seeTowing with EAS). Low ride height Approximately1 in (25 mm) belowStandard. Selected automaticallywhen speeds of over 50 mph (80 km/h) aresustainedfor over 30 seconds. This settinglowers thevehicles centreof gravity, therebyimprovingthehandling characteristics of thevehicle. Thevehicle automaticallyreturns to Standard if speeds below35 mph (50 km/h) aresustainedfor over 30 seconds. Low canbemanually selectedat anyspeedwhen Inhibit modehas beenselected. Access/Crawl ride height Access mode Approximately2.5 in (65 mm) belowStandard, enablingeasier access or loading.

However, thesuspensionwill not beginto lower until thevehicleis stationarywith thehandbrake applied, thegear selector in theP (park) positionand thefootbrakereleased. Preselectionis automaticallycancelledif the 40 secondperiodis exceeded. NOTE: If a door/tailgate is opened or the footbrake is applied while the vehicle is changing height, the change will be interrupted. Whenmovingoff, vehicleheight automatically returns to Standard (Low if Inhibit mode was operational BEFOREAccess was selected). If Inhibit modeis selectedAFTER Access, Crawl modeis selected(seeCrawl mode). WARNING Always take care when UNLOADING your vehicle in an area where height is restricted. With the starter switch turned off, the suspension will automatically re-level the vehicle every time a door (or the tailgate) is opened and then closed (and every few hours thereafter). After unloading, the height of the vehicle will therefore increase. Crawl mode If it is necessaryto manoeuvrethevehiclein an areawhereheight is restricted, Crawl modeshouldbeselectedas follows: Select Access.

Select Standard (as describedearlier in this section). FAULT DIAGNOSIS If theEAS self-checkdetects aminor fault in thesystem, Standard is automatically selected. No rideheight changes arepossible until thefault is rectified. Themessagecentre emits an audiblewarningand EAS FAULT is displayed. All theEAS indicator lights flashin unisonfor 30 seconds beforethey, and the Highsuspensionwarninglight, illuminate continuously. If amajor fault is detected, thevehiclelowers to Access, and themessagecentreemits an audiblewarningand displays SLOW: 35 MPH MAX (SLOW: 55 KMHMAX). If asecondfault occurs, all theEAS indicator lights flashagain. WARNING If either a minor, or major fault develops, take your vehicle to your dealer as soon as possible. Only an authorised Land Rover dealer will be able to rectify faults. NOTE: Certain minor faults are rechecked after the EAS system is re-powered. If the message EAS FAULT is displayed, switch off the engine and keep all doors and tailgate closed for at least 2 minutes, then re-start the engine. If a fault is no longer present, normal operation is restored. However, a record of the fault is stored by the systems computer to aid your dealer. Trip computer & overspeed warning 107 Thetripcomputer provides valuable informationto assist thedriver to calculate fuel stops, journeytimes and distances. Thetwo push switches (illustrated) operate thetripcomputer and overspeedwarning system, and messages fromthetripcomputer and overspeedwarningsystemaredisplayed in themessagecentre.

Towing & load carrying 110 TOWING WITH YOUR VEHICLE Thetorqueranges of Land Rover engines allowmaximum-weight loads to bepulled smoothlyfromstandstill, and reducegear changingon hills or rough terrain. The suspensionis designedto copewith aheavy trailer loadwithout upsettingthebalanceor feel of thevehicle. Towing weights arelistedin General data. Trailer hitch RangeRovers areequippedwith atrailer hitch receiver as standardequipment. When selectingadrawbar, do not exceedadrop in height of 1 / 2 inch(12 mm) or arisein height of 4 3 / 4 inches (120 mm) fromthecentreof the drawbar to thecentreof theball, nor exceeda hitchlengthof 10 1 / 2 inches (266 mm). An equalizingor other formof weight distributinghitchshouldnot beusedwith a RangeRover. WARNING Ensure that the gross vehicle weight and maximum rear axle weight are not exceeded. When preparing your vehicle for towing, always pay careful attention to the trailer manufacturers recommendations and the following guidelines. Set theelectronic air suspensionto INHIBIT, select STANDARDrideheight and maintainthat settingwhilst towing. Ensurethat thevehicleand trailer tyre pressures areas recommendedbythe trailer manufacturer. Check theoperationof trailer brakes and lights. For maximumstability, ensurethat loads areproperlypositionedand securedto eliminateshiftingduringtransit. Trailer loads shouldbepositionedso that most of theweight is placedas lowas possible and closeto/over thetrailer axle(s). After loadingthetrailer checkthat the weight on thehitchpoint (this is calledthe draw-bar loadingweight, or tongue weight), is in accordancewith the manufacturers recommendations. Trailers should never be towed when the tongue/draw bar rises up on its own when disconnected from the tow vehicle. Towing & load carrying 111 Whencalculatingtheladenweight of the trailer, remember to includetheweight of thetrailer PLUS theload. Wheretheloadcanbedividedbetween trailer and towvehicle, loadingmore weight into thevehiclethan thetrailer will generallyimprovethestabilityof the combination. NOTE: It is the drivers responsibility to ensure that all regulations with regard to towing, are complied with according to the state in which the vehicle is being operated. All relevant information should be obtained from an appropriate motoring organisation. TONGUE WEIGHT Therecommendedmaximumtrailer tongue weight is 550 lb (250 kg). WARNING The tongue weight plus the combined weight of the vehicles load carrying area and rear seat passengers, must NOT EXCEED the maximum rear axle load, or the gross vehicle weight (as shown in General data). VEHICLE WEIGHTS Whenloadingavehicleto its maximum(gross vehicleweight), considerationmust betaken of theunladenvehicleweight and the distributionof theload, to ensurethat axle loadings do not exceedthepermitted maximumvalues. It is your responsibilityto limit thevehicle load, in suchawaythat neither themaximum axleloads, nor thegross vehicleweight, are exceeded(seeGeneral data ). If veryheavytrailer loads aretowed (particularlyat high altitudeor in hot climates), theGEARBOXOVERHEAT warning mayappear in themessagecentre. This warningindicates that thegearboxoil is too hot, in whichcaseyou shouldreduceroad speed, manuallyselect alower gear, or transfer to theLOWrangeof gears. If the messagepersists, stop thevehicleand allow thegearboxto cool. If themessageresumes after cooling, seekqualifiedassistancebefore continuing. NOTE: When towing at altitudes above 1,000 feet (300 metres), engine performance can be adversly affected causing overheating. WARNING DO NOT carry unsecured equipment, tools or luggage, which could move and cause personal injury in the event of an accident or emergency manoeuvre, either on or off road. Towing & load carrying 112 TRAILER SOCKET Incorporatedin theRangeRovers electrical harness is thefacilityto fit apair of multi-pin trailer lightingsockets. Pick-uppoints for attachingatrailer lighting harness arelocatedbehindthetail light access panels (seeillustration) - thetrailer tail lights, stop lights and directionindicators arefed fromaconnector locatedbehindtheright hand panel, whilethesupplyfor areversing light and trailer auxiliaryequipment is fed fromaconnector behindtheleft hand panel. To fit a trailer lighting socket Beforefittingtrailer lightingequipment, ALWAYS disconnect thevehiclebattery. Detachboth of thecircular blankingcovers fromthebumper and feedthetwo parts of the maintowing harness through theholes. Fit thereinforcement plates and towing sockets to thebumper (thetowing socket hinges must beuppermost), and then clip both parts of themaintowing harness securelyto therear of thebumper alongits full length(secureto thetop of thebottom edgeof theMETAL bumper reinforcement). Frombeneaththevehicle, removethe blankinggrommets fromtheloadspacefloor (oneon eachside- beloweachlight unit). Then, viathetail light access panels, connect agenuine, Land Rover approved, linking harness to both harness connectors (on on eachsideof thevehicle). Eachlinkingharness MUST beclippedsecurelyto an adjacent body panel and then fed through theholes in the floor. Ensuretheholes areproperlysealed. Connect both sides of thetowing harness to thelinkingharness connectors protruding beneaththeloadspacefloor. Finally, reconnect thebatteryand checktheoperationof the trailer lights. Towing & load carrying 113 WARNING It is ESSENTIAL that neither the towing harness, nor the linking harnesses, drop down below the level of the bumper, or are able to make contact with the exhaust system. Ensure that all harnesses are securely clipped to the bumper, or appropriate body panels, to prevent them from vibrating loose. ROOF RACK A Land Rover approvedroof rackis available as an accessory. Fittinginstructions and loadingrecommendations aredetailedin the literatureprovidedwith theroof rack; observe all recommendations. Thetotal loadmust NOT exceedthat givenin General data, and must includetheweight of theroof rackwithintheload. IMPORTANT INFORMATION A loadedroof rackcanreducethestability of thevehicle, particularlywhen cornering and encounteringcross winds. All loads shouldbeevenlydistributed, and securedwithintheperipheryof the rack. Onlyfit roof racks that havebeen designedfor your vehicle. If in doubt, consult your dealer. Drivingoff-roadwith aloadedroof rackis not recommended. If it is necessaryto stowluggageon theroof rackwhile drivingoff-road, all loads MUST be removedbeforetraversingsideslopes. Emergency starting 114 Starting an engine with a discharged battery TheONLY recommendedmethods of restartingavehiclewith adischargedbattery are: Theuseof asubstitutebatteryfittedto the disabledvehicle. Theuseof booster cables to connect the batteryfromadonor vehicleto the dischargedbattery. WARNING A vehicle with automatic transmission cannot be restarted by pushing or towing. USING BOOSTER CABLES WARNING Batteries emit explosive hydrogen gas - keep sparks and naked lights away from the engine compartment. Make sure BOTH batteries are of the same voltage (12 volts), and that the booster cables have insulated clamps and are approved for use with 12 volt batteries. DO NOT connect positive (+) terminals to negative (-) terminals, and ensure booster cables are kept away from any moving parts in the engine compartment. Take care when working near rotating parts of the engine. Emergency starting 115 Always adopt the following procedure when using booster cables: 1. If adonor vehicleis to beused, both vehicles shouldbeparkedwith their batterylocations adjacent to eachother. Ensurethat thetwo vehicles do not touch. 2. Applythehandbrakes and ensurethat the transmissionof both vehicles is set in neutral (P or Park for vehicles with automatic transmission). 3. Turn off thestarter switchand ALL electrical equipment of BOTHvehicles. 4. Connect theREDbooster cablebetween thepositive(+) terminal of thedonor batteryand thepositive(+) terminal of the dischargedbattery. 5. Connect theBLACK booster cablefromthe negative(-) terminal of thedonor battery to theengineliftingring(shownin illustration) on thedisabledvehicle. For safety reasons, DO NOT connect this cable to the negative terminal of the discharged battery. If in doubt, seek qualified assistance. 6. Check that thebooster cables areclear of anymovingparts in either engine, then start theengineof thedonor vehicleand allowit to idlefor afewminutes. 7. Nowstart thevehiclewith thedischarged battery. 8. Onceboth engines arerunningnormally, allowthemto idlefor two minutes before switchingoff theengineof thedonor vehicleand disconnectingthebooster cables. DONOT switchon anyelectrical circuits on thepreviouslydisabledvehicle, until AFTER thebooster cables havebeen removed. 9. Disconnectingthebooster cables, must be an EXACT reversal of theprocedureused to connect them, ie: first removingthe BLACK cableclipfromtheliftingring. Emergency towing 116 Towing eyes Thetowing eyes at thefront and rear of the vehiclearedesignedfor vehiclerecovery purposes onlyand must NOT beusedto towa trailer or caravan. FRONT: UseONLY when thevehicleis to be towed with ALL four wheels on theground (seeTowing the vehicle on four-wheels). REAR: UseONLY when towing another vehicle. Long distance towing Your vehiclecanbetowed behinda motorhomeor other recreational vehicle. Followtheprocedurefor towing thevehicleon four wheels. Towing the vehicle on four-wheels WARNING Your vehicle has permanent four-wheel drive and is fitted with a steering lock. The following instructions must be carried out carefully to prevent damage to the vehicle. First, select transfer neutral as follows: Makesurethegear selector lever is in P (Park). Removethestarter key, then insert afuse (5 amps or greater) in fuseposition11 in theright hand seat fusebox. Insert key and turn thestarter switchon; thetransfer boxwill automaticallyselect neutral (wait until themessagecentredisplays TRANSFER NEUTRAL), then turn the starter switchoff. Turn thestarter switchto positionI to unlock thesteering, and then to position II if it is necessaryto operatethebrake lights and directionindicators. Leavein this positionwhilethevehicleis being towed. Leavethegear selector lever in P (Park) at all times whilethevehicleis being towed. To re-engageHIGHor LOWrangeafter towing, turn thestarter switchoff, remove thefusefromposition11, then turn the starter switchon - thetransfer boxwill engagetheHIGHor LOWgear range. NOTE: If, due to an accident or electrical fault, it is considered unsafe to turn the starter switch, the battery must be disconnected. Emergency towing 117 WARNING DO NOT attempt to tow the vehicle unless the starter switch is turned to position I (to unlock the steering). DO NOT attempt to remove the starter key, or turn the switch to position 0, while the vehicle is in motion. Without the engine running, the power steering pump and brake system cannot provide assistance. Greater steering effort and brake pedal effort will be required to safely control the vehicle. Towing the vehicle on two-wheels If it is necessaryto recover thevehicleby towing on two wheels only, always adhereto thefollowing: Removethepropeller shaft fromtheaxle whichis to remainon theroad. Thepropeller shaft flangeand shaft, must be markedbeforeremoval to ensurecorrect re-assembly. Securethesuspendedpropeller shaft safelyto prevent damage. WARNING If the rear axle is to be raised, the steering wheel and/or linkage MUST be secured in a straight ahead position, but the steering lock MUST NOT be used for this purpose. The vehicle can then be attached to the towing truck. Transporter or trailer lashing If your vehicleshouldrequiretransportingon theback of aflatbedtruck, then theair suspensionmust beset to ACCESS before beinglashed(seeAir suspension ). Pairs of lashingeyes areprovidedat thefront and rear (seeillustration). DONOT securelashing hooks or trailer fixings to anyother part of the vehicle. If theair suspensioncannot beset to the ACCESS position, then your vehiclemust be lashedbyits wheels and NOT bythelashing rings referredto above. NOTE: The lashing eyes are for lashing only and must NOT be used for towing. 118 119 The long-term safety, reliability and performance of your vehicle will depend very largely on how it is maintained. Maintenance is the owners responsibility and it is ESSENTIAL that all routine services are carried out by a Land Rover dealer at the specified intervals. These are shown in the Passport to Service book included in the literature pack. The Passport to Service also provides spaces for your dealer to record the completion of each service as and when it is carried out, thus creating a valuable and comprehensive record of the maintenance history of your vehicle. This section of the handbook includes information to assist the owner carry out those daily, weekly and monthly checks that are also necessary to ensure safe, reliable motoring.

WARNING If brake travel is unusually long or if there is any evident loss of brake fluid, contact your dealer immediately. Any significant or sudden drop in fluid levels, or uneven tyre wear should be reported to your dealer without delay. NOTE: All fluid specifications and capacities are shown in General data. IMPORTANT INFORMATION Special operating conditions Whenavehicleis operatedin extremely arduous conditions or on dusty, wet or muddyterrain, morefrequent attention must bepaidto servicingrequirements. For example; if your vehicleexperiences deepwadingconditions, evenDAILY servicingcouldbenecessaryto ensure thecontinuedsafeand reliableoperation of thevehicle. Contact aLand Rover dealer for advice. Owner maintenance 122 Planned maintenance Regular systematic maintenanceis thekeyto ensuringthecontinuedreliabilityand efficiencyof your vehicle. Theroutinemaintenancerequirements for your vehicleareshown in thePassport to Service. Most of thenecessaryworkshop maintenancerequires specialisedknowledge and equipment, and shouldpreferablybe entrustedto your Land Rover dealer. Emission control Your vehicleis fittedwith various items of emissionand evaporativecontrol equipment, designedto meet specific territorial requirements. You shouldbeawarethat unauthorised replacement, modificationor tamperingwith this equipment byan owner or repair shop maybeunlawful and subject to legal penalties. In addition, enginesettings must not be tamperedwith. Thesehavebeenestablished to ensurethat your vehiclecomplies with stringent exhaust emissionregulations. Incorrect enginesettings mayadverselyaffect exhaust emissions, engineperformanceand fuel consumption, as well as causinghigh temperatures, whichwill result in damageto thecatalytic converter and thevehicle. WhileLand Rover NorthAmericaInc. maintains that an authorisedLand Rover dealer is best equippedto carryout repairs and maintenanceon theemissioncontrol system, suchwork maybecarriedout byany competent automotiverepair shop, or individual, usingcertifiedparts. Road testing on dynamometers (rolling roads) WARNING Because your vehicle is equipped with anti-lock brakes and permanent four-wheel drive, it is essential that any dynamometer testing is carried out ONLY by a qualified person, familiar with the dynamometer testing and safety procedures practised by Land Rover dealers. Contact your Land Rover dealer for further information. Steering Theintermediatesteeringshaft, connecting thesteeringcolumnto thesteeringbox, is designedto disconnect under certaincrash conditions. This is acritical safetyfeatureand anyservicing, replacement or repair must ONLY becarriedout byan authoriseddealer usingapprovedLand Rover parts. Examinationof theintermediateshaft every 24,000 miles (40,000 km), or two years, is an important part of thevehicles servicing schedule. However, you shouldbeawarethat amorethorough examinationMUST be carriedout if thevehicleis involvedin afrontal collision. Under no circumstances shouldanyformof oil, greaseor lubricant beappliedto anypart of thesteeringcolumnat anytime; anynoise or roughness of operationshouldbereported to your dealer. Owner maintenance 123 SAFETY IN THE GARAGE Whenever you carry out maintenance on your vehicle, the following safety precautions should be observed at all times: ALWAYS keephands, tools and items of clothingclear of all drivebelts and pulleys. DONOT touch theexhaust or cooling systemcomponents until theyarecool. DONOT touch electrical leads or components with thestarter switchturned on. NEVER leavetheenginerunningin an unventilatedarea; exhaust gases contain carbonmonoxidewhichcancause unconsciousness and mayevenbefatal. DONOT work beneaththevehiclewith a vehicleliftingjackas theonlymeans of support. ENSUREsparks and nakedlights arekept awayfromtheenginecompartment. WARNING Remember; cooling fans may continue to operate after the engine is switched off. Always wait until the fans have completely stopped moving before working in the engine compartment. Poisonous liquids Most liquids and lubricants usedin motor vehicles arepoisonous and shouldnot be consumedor brought into contact with open wounds. Theseinclude: batteryacid, anti-freeze, brakeand power steeringfluids, as well as gasoline, engineoil and windscreen washer additives. For your own safety, ALWAYS readand obey all instructions printedon labels and containers. Used engine oil Prolongedcontact with engineoil maycause serious skindisorders, includingdermatitis and cancer of theskin. ALWAYS wash thoroughlyafter contact. It is illegal to pollutedrains, water courses or soil with toxic chemicals suchas usedengine oil. ALWAYS disposeof vehiclefluids and lubricants at authorisedwastedisposal sites or at garages whichprovidefacilities for the receipt of usedoil and toxic chemicals. If in doubt contact your Local Authorityfor advice. PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT! Hood opening 124 OPENING THE HOOD Pull thereleaselever. Lift thesafetycatchand raisethehood.

Power steeringreservoir Instructions on howand when owner maintenanceshouldbecarriedout are includedon thefollowingpages. WARNING Before carrying out maintenance checks, or working in the engine compartment, ALWAYS observe the safety precautions listed under Safety in the garage, at the beginning of the Owner maintenance section of this handbook. Engine compartment 126 ENGINE OIL LEVEL CHECK & TOP-UP Check theoil level at least every250 miles (400 km) when theengineis HOT and with the vehiclerestingon level ground. Switchoff theengineand let thevehiclestand for fiveminutes to allowtheoil to drainback into thesump. Withdrawthedipstickand wipe thebladecleanand then fullyreinsert the dipstickand withdrawagainto checkthelevel, whichshouldNEVER beallowedto fall below thelower mark on thedipstick. To top-up, unscrewtheoil filler capand add oil to maintainthelevel betweentheUPPER and LOWER marks on thedipstick. DO NOT OVERFILL! As ageneral guide, if thelevel on thedipstick: is nearer to theupper mark than thelower, add no oil. is nearer to thelower mark than theupper, add 0.5 US quart (0.5 litre) of oil. is belowthelower mark, add 1 US quart (1 litre) of oil and re-checkthelevel after a further fiveminutes. NOTE: If it is necessary to check the oil level when the engine is cold, DO NOT start the engine. Follow the procedure detailed above. AUTOMATIC GEARBOX FLUID LEVEL CHECK & TOP-UP Theautomatic gearboxfluidmust ONLY be checkedwhen theengineand gearboxare COLD, (seenote below) Ensurethecar is restingon level ground, then select P (park) and start theengine. Withtheenginerunningat idlespeedand both footbrakeand handbrakeapplied, move theselector lever to position1 and then back to positionP. Withtheenginerunning, withdrawthe dipstickfromthefiller tubeand wipetheblade clean. Reinsert thedipstickfullyand withdraw againto checkthelevel. Top-up to maintain thelevel betweentheupper and lower markings on thedipstickwith afluidmeeting theminimumspecificationdefinedin General data. NOTE: In extreme ambient temperatures, the level of fluid showing on the dipstick will vary. To ensure an accurate reading, the level should be checked at an ambient temperature of 68F (20C). DO NOT OVERFILL! NOTE: Approximately 0.25 US quart (0.25 litre) of fluid will be required to raise the level from the lower to the upper mark on the dipstick. Engine compartment 127 COOLING SYSTEM TOP-UP WARNING NEVER remove the filler cap when the engine is hot; escaping steam or scalding water could cause serious personal injury. The coolant level in the expansion tank should be checked at least weekly (more often in high mileage or arduous operating conditions). Always check the level WHEN THE SYSTEM IS COLD. Unscrew the filler cap slowly, allowing the air pressure to escape, before removing completely. NEVER run the engine without coolant. Top-up to thearrowhead(next to theseam) on thesideof thetank with a50%mixtureof anti-freezeand water. Ensurethecapis tightenedfullyafter top-up is completed. If thelevel has fallenappreciably, suspect leakageor overheatingand arrangefor your dealer to examinethevehicle. DO NOT overfill ! Anti-freeze Anti-freezecontains important corrosion inhibitors. Ensurethe50%anti-freeze/water solutionis maintainedand topped up all year round (not just in coldconditions). Failureto do so maycausecorrosionof theradiator and enginecomponents. Usean ethyleneglycol basedanti-freeze (containingno methanol) with non-phosphate corrosioninhibitors suitablefor usein aluminiumengines. Thespecific gravityof a 50%anti-freezesolutionat 68 F (20 C) is 1.075 and protects against frost down to -33 F (-36 C). WARNING Anti-freeze is poisonous and can be fatal if swallowed. If accidental consumption of anti-freeze is suspected, seek medical attention immediately. Prevent anti-freeze coming in contact with the skin or eyes. If this occurs, rinse immediately with plenty of water. Anti-freeze will damage painted surfaces. NEVER top up with salt water. Even when travelling in territories where the water supply contains salt, always ensure you carry a supply of fresh (rain or distilled) water. Engine compartment 128 WINDSCREEN WASHER TOP-UP Thewindscreenwasher reservoir also supplies therear screenand headlight washer jets. ThemessageLOWSCREENWASH appears on themessagecentrewhenever thewasher is operatedand thereservoir fluidlevel is low. To reset themessagecentre, top-up the reservoir ONLY when thestarter switchis turnedoff. Top-up with amixtureof water and an approvedscreenwasher solvent. In cold weather, to prevent freezing, ALWAYS usethe recommendedquantityof screenwashto help disperseiceand snow. WARNING Do not use an anti-freeze solution in the washer reservoir. Anti-freeze will damage painted surfaces. Engine compartment 129 WARNING Contact your dealer immediately if brake pedal travel is unusually long or if there is any appreciable drop in brake fluid level. DO NOT drive if the reservoir fluid level is below the MIN mark. Brake fluid will damage painted surfaces; soak up any spillage with an absorbant cloth immediately and wash the area with a mixture of car shampoo and water. If fluid should come into contact with the skin or eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of fresh water. BRAKE FLUID CHECK Thefluidlevel will fall slightlyduringuse, as a result of brakepad wear, but shouldnot be allowedto fall belowtheMIN mark. Any substantial drop in fluidindicates aleakin the system, in whichcasethevehiclemust NOT bedrivenand you shouldcontact your dealer. Withthevehicleon level ground, checkthe fluidlevel at least everyweek (morefrequently in high mileageor arduous operating conditions) as follows: 1. Turn thestarter switchto positionII to activatethepump (brakewarninglight illuminates). 2. If thepump cannot beheardto operate, press thebrakepedal several times. 3. Wait until thepump has stoppedoperating and thewarninglight has extinguished beforecheckingthefluidlevel. Topping-up Wipethefiller capbeforeremoving, to prevent dirt fromenteringthereservoir, then top-up to theMAX mark usingarecommendedfluid (seeGeneral data). Useonlynewfluidfromasealedcontainer (oldfluidfromopenedcontainers or fluid previouslybledfromthesystemmust NOT be used). DO NOT overfill! WARNING It is vital that the hydraulic brake fluid is completely renewed at 45, 000 mile (72, 000 km) intervals or every 36 months, whichever is sooner. At 90, 000 mile (144, 000 km) intervals or every 6 years, whichever is sooner, all hydraulic brake fluid, seals and flexible hoses should be renewed. All working surfaces of the caliper cylinders should be examined and the components renewed where necessary. Under arduous operating conditions, these intervals must be reduced. Please consult your Land Rover dealer. Engine compartment 130 POWER STEERING TOP-UP ONLY checkthefluidlevel when theengineis switchedoff and thesystemis coldand ensurethat thesteeringwheel is not turned after stoppingtheengine. Wipethefiller capto prevent dirt from enteringthereservoir. Removethefiller capand, usingalint-free cloth, wipethedipstickclean. Refit thefiller capfullyand removeit againto checkthefluid level. Add fluidto thereservoir until thelevel is betweentheupper mark and thebottomof thedipstick(seeGeneral data for recommendedfluid). DONOT fill abovetheUPPER mark on the dipstick. WARNING The engine must NOT be started if the fluid level has dropped below the bottom of the dipstick - severe damage to the pump could result. Tyres 131 WARNING Never drive your vehicle if the tyres are badly worn, cut or damaged, or if the pressures are incorrect. Incorrectly inflated tyres wear rapidly and seriously affect the vehicles safety and road handling characteristics. Caring for your tyres Always drivewith considerationfor the conditionof thetyres and frequentlyinspect thetreadand sidewalls for signs of distortion or damage(inparticular, look for lumps, cuts and bulges). Tyre pressures Tyrepressures shouldbecheckedat least onceaweek with normal roaduse, but should becheckedDAILY if thevehicleis used off-road. Check thepressures, includingthespare, when thetyres arecold(air pressurenaturally increases in warmtyres). Therecommended pressures aregivenin theGeneral data section. WARNING If the vehicle has been parked in strong sunlight or is used in high ambient temperatures, DO NOT reduce tyre pressures; instead, move the vehicle into shade and allow the tyres to cool before checking. Tyre wear Sometyres fittedas original equipment have wear indicators mouldedinto thetread pattern. Whenthetreadhas worn down to 1/16 inch(1.6 mm) theindicators start appearingon thesurfaceof thetreadpattern, producingtheeffect of acontinuous band across thewidth of thetyre. A tyreMUST bereplacedas soon as an indicator band becomes visibleor thetread depth reaches theminimumpermittedby legislation. Treaddepth must becheckedregularly(at everymaintenanceservice, or more frequently). Always replaceatyrebeforethe treadreaches aremainingdepth of 1/16 in. (1.6 mm). DONOT drivewith tyres worn to this limit; thesafetyof thevehicleand its occupants will beadverselyaffected. NOTE: After off-road use, check to make sure there are no lumps or bulges in the tyres or exposure of the ply or cord structure. Valve caps Keepthevalvecaps screweddown firmlyto prevent dirt fromenteringthevalve. Tyres 132 Replacement tyres Wheel rims and tyres arematchedto suit the handlingcharacteristics of thevehicle. For safety, ALWAYS checkthat replacement tyres complywith themanufacturers original specificationand that theloadratingshown on thesidewall is thesameas that of the original equipment. Contact your Land Rover dealer for further informationor assistance. WARNING ALWAYS use the same make and type of radial-ply tyres front and back. DO NOT use cross-ply or tubed tyres, and DO NOT interchange tyres from front to back. Do not replace wheels with any type other than genuine Land Rover parts. Wheels and tyres are designed for both off-road and on-road use and have a very important influence upon the correct operation of the suspension systems and vehicle handling. Alternative wheels, which do not meet original equipment specifications, should not be fitted. NOTE: Tyre sizes and pressures are shown in General data. Snow chains Land Rover approvedsnowchains are designedfor on-roadusein extremesnow conditions only, and arenot recommendedfor off-roaduse. ALWAYS observethefollowing recommendations: ONLY Land Rover approvedchains may befitted. Theymust befittedin axlesets to thefront wheels or to all four wheels.

Battery 135 WARNING Batteries contain sulphuric acid. If the acid comes into contact with the eyes or skin, wash immediately with cold water and seek medical advice. During normal operation batteries emit explosive hydrogen gas; ensure sparks, flames and other ignition sources (i. e. cigarattes) are kept away from the engine compartment. To reduce the risk of a short circuit, remove all metal wrist bands and jewellery before working in the engine compartment and NEVER allow the battery terminals or vehicle leads to make contact with tools or metal parts of the vehicle. ALWAYS remove the starter key before disconnecting the battery. Failure to do this could cause a failure of the airbag SRS. BATTERY MAINTENANCE In temperateclimates thebatteryis maintenancefreeand no topping-upis necessary. However, in conditions of high ambient temperature, theelectrolytelevel MUST becheckedperiodicallyand topped-up with distilledwater as necessary. Wipethebatterycasingperiodicallyto remove anydirt, and smear petroleumjellyon both terminals to keepthemfreefromcorrosion. Checking the electrolyte level Gentlypriseoff thevent covers (or unscrewif vent plugs arefitted) and inspect the electrolytelevel in eachcell. This shouldbeno lower than 0.04 in. (1 mm) abovethetop of theplates. If necessary, top-up with distilled water to amaximumof 0.12 in. (3 mm) above theplates. Battery removal & replacement ALWAYS turn thestarter switchto position 0, switchoff all electrical equipment and removethekeybeforedisconnectingthe battery. Turn thethreeturnbuckles anti-clockwiseto releasethebatterycover. ALWAYS disconnect thenegative(-) terminal first (whenreplacing, connect thepositive(+) terminal first). Battery 136 WARNING DO NOT disconnect the battery when the security system is armed. To avoid damaging the vehicles electrical system, ensure correct polarity when refitting the battery. ONLY fit a replacement battery of the same type and specification as the original. Other batteries may vary in size and have different terminal positions, capable of creating a potential fire hazard if the terminals or leads were to come into contact with the battery clamp assembly. DO NOT use a high speed battery charger as a starting aid. Do not let the engine run without the battery connected. Cold climates Whereambient temperatures areconsistently belowfreezingpoint, aheater shouldbeused to keepthebatterywarmwhilethevehicleis not in use. Consult your Land Rover dealer for recommendations.

Wheel changing 138 WARNING To prevent personal injury, before jacking the vehicle the air suspension system must be locked - this will prevent the suspension from self-levelling or the ride height from changing while the vehicle is supported by the wheel changing jack. To lock thesuspension: 1. First, ensurethat either Standardor High rideheight areengaged- this will provide sufficient spacebeneaththevehicleto locateand operatethejack. 2. Openthetailgate. 3. Switchon thehazardwarninglights. Thehazardwarninglights MUST remain flashingand thetailgateopen THROUGHOUT THE WHOLEwheel changingprocess. Using the wheel chocks WARNING Before raising the vehicle, it is ESSENTIAL to chock one of the road wheels; the parking brake acts on the transmission, not on the rear wheels, and therefore may not hold the vehicle when raised. Always chock the front and back of the wheel diagonally opposite the one to be removed. Thewheel chocks arestowedwith thejack, jacklever, wheel braceand steel sparewheel beneaththeloadspacefloor. IMPORTANT INFORMATION Beforejackingthevehiclealways observe thefollowingprecautions! Park your vehicleawayfromthe thoroughfare, and makeyour passengers wait in asafearea AWAY fromthevehicle.

Cleaning & vehicle care 157 WASHING YOUR VEHICLE Washyour car frequentlyusingaspongeand generous quantities of coldor lukewarmwater containingacar shampoo. Rinseand dryoff with achamois leather. Do not usehot water! Do not usedetergent soapproducts or washing-upliquid! Whenusingahose, do not direct thejet into theheater air intakeducts, or through the wheel trimapertures onto thebrake components, or at thedoor, windowor sunroof seals, wherewater pressurecould penetratetheseals. WARNING Some high pressure cleaning systems are sufficiently powerful to penetrate door and window seals and damage rubbing strips and locking mechanisms. Never aim the water jet directly at components that might easily be damaged. Underbody maintenance Corrosivematerials usedfor snowand ice removal and dust control cancollect on underbodyparts. If thesematerials arenot removed, acceleratedrustingcanoccur on underbodyparts suchas theframe, floor pan and theexhaust system. Regularlyflushthese materials fromtheunderbodywith plain water. Takecareto thoroughlycleananyareas wheremud and other debris cancollect. Similarly, after off-roaddrivingor wadingin muddyor salt water conditions, useahoseto washunderbodycomponents and other exposedparts of thevehicle. Getting rid of tar spots Usemineral spirit or turpentineto removetar spots and stubborngreasestains fromthe paintwork. Then washimmediatelywith soapy water to removeall traces of spirit. Body protection After washing, inspect thepaintworkfor damage. Anystonechips, fractures or deep scratches in thebodywork shouldberepaired promptly. Baremetal will corrodequicklyand candevelopinto major repair expense. Some exterior panels of your vehiclearemadeof aluminumwhichwill not corrodein thesame manner as sheet steel. However, anydamage shouldstill receiveprompt attention. Minor chips and scratches canberepairedwith touch-upmaterials availablefromyour dealer. Larger areas of damageneedto becorrected to professional standards immediately. Occasionallyprotect thepaint surfacewith an applicationof car polish. NOTE: DO NOT apply car polish to the moulded bumpers - polish will become ingrained in the textured finish of the mouldings. Glass & mirrors Cleantherear screenwith asoft clothto avoid damagingtheheater elements. DONOT scrapetheglass or usean abrasivecleaning fluid. Mirror glass is particularlysusceptibleto damage; DONOT useabrasivecleaning compounds or metal scrapers.

Leather seats, steeringwheel and trim features shouldbecleanedwith adamp cloth moistenedwith undilutedupholsterycleaner. Leavefor fiveminutes, and then repeat the operationusingaclean, clothand water, but avoidfloodingthearea! Dryand polishthe leather with adry, clean, lint-freecloth. DONOT usegasoline, detergents, furniture creams or polishes. Instrument pack, clock & radio Cleanwith adrycloth. DONOT usecleaning fluids or sprays. Seat belts Extendbelts, then usewarmwater and a non-detergent soapto clean. Allowto dry naturally, and do not retract until completely dry. Airbag SRS To prevent airbagSRS damage, thesteering wheel centrepad and areaof thefasciapanel containingthepassenger sideairbagshould ONLY becleanedsparinglywith adamp cloth and upholsterycleaner. DONOT allowtheseareas to befloodedwith liquid, and DONOT usegasoline, detergent, furniturecreamor polishes. Air cleaner 159 Renewingtheair cleaner element at the recommendedserviceintervals (seeyour Passport to Service) is extremelyimportant. However, to maintainoptimumengine performanceunder dustyoperating conditions, morefrequent renewal will be necessary. Consult your Land Rover dealer for guidance. Air cleaner element removal Releasethefiveclips (1) securingtheair cleaner top, then releasethetwo clips (2) securingthehoseto therear of theair cleaner. Detachthehoseand removetheair cleaner top to gainaccess to theelement (3). Discardtheelement and replacewith anew onebeforereassemblingtheunit. Always fit a NEWelement; under no circumstances should acontaminatedelement becleanedand used again. Spark plugs 160 Spark plug removal Removetheplug leads (1), ensuringthat you hold therubber shroudand NOT theH.T. leads (this prevents damageoccuringto the connectors duringremoval). Ensurethat therecesses aroundtheplugs are freefromdebris (to avoidforeignmatter accidentallyenteringthecylinder head), and useasuitablesparkplug wrenchto remove theplugs and washers (2). Cleaning and adjusting Check or replacethesparkplugs as applicable. If theplugs arein good condition but requireadjusting, useawire-brushto cleanthethreads and theelectrodesparking surfaces (A). Then adjust theelectrodegap to therecommendedclearance(B) as shown in General data. Refitting the plugs Whenrefitting, takecarenot to cross-thread thesparkplugs otherwisecostlydamageto thecylinder headwill result. Onlyfit sparkplugs of atyperecommended bythevehiclemanufacturer. Theseare specifiedin General data and must be tightenedto atorqueof 14 to 16 lbf.ft (19 to 21,7 Nm). Notethat incorrect grades of plug mayleadto enginefailureand serious damage. Refitting the high tension leads To ensurethecorrect firingorder (1, 8, 4, 3, 6, 5, 7, 2), thehigh tensionleads must be replacedin thecorrect relationshipto each other (as illustrated). Failureto maintainthe correct plug leadconnections will result in a misfireand possibledamageto thecatalytic converter. Whenpushingtheleads on to theplugs, ensurethat theshrouds arefirmlyseatedon theplugs. Engine oil & filter 161 Ensuretheengineoil is changedat the recommendedserviceintervals (seeyour Passport to Service). Under severeoperatingconditions (i.e. regular usein muddyterrainor dustyconditions), the engineoil must bechangedfrequently, even to theextent of adailychange. Consult your Land Rover dealer for guidance. Engine oil drain and refill Withtheenginewarm(to assist oil drainage) and thevehicleparkedon firm, level ground, removethefiller cap(1) and positiona container of suitablesize(at least 4.87 litres or 8.5 pints) under thedrainplug (2) in the bottomof thesump. Removethedrainplug and copper washer and allowtheengineoil to draininto the container. Whentheoil has thoroughlydrained, clean thedrainplug and its matingsurfaceon the sump beforesecurelyrefittingtheplug completewith anewcopper washer. WARNING Oil from the engine can be very hot - take care when removing the drain plug. Prolonged contact with used engine oil can cause serious skin disorders, including dermatitis and cancer of the skin. Wear protective clothing if possible and ALWAYS wash thoroughly after contact. DO NOT pollute drains, water courses or soil. ONLY dispose of used engine oil and other vehicle fluids at an authorised waste disposal site. Refill theenginewith freshoil suitablefor the climatic conditions in whichthevehicleis to beoperated(precisespecifications areshown in General data). DONOT overfill theengine! Remember that a littleoil will always remainin theengineafter drainingand that, therefore, thequantityof oil requiredto refill theenginewill beslightlyless than thefull capacityquoted in General data. After filling, allowafewminutes to elapse beforecheckingthelevel on thedipstick(3) (this will allowall theoil to draininto the sump and enableatruereadingto be obtained). Oncethecorrect level of oil is shown on thedipstick, replacethefiller cap. Engine oil & filter 162 Oil filter renewal To avoiddrainingtheoil pump, it is essential that theengineis filledwith oil to thecorrect level BEFOREthefilter is removed. It is thereforerecommendedthat theengineoil is renewedbeforework on thefilter commences. 1. Cleantheareaaroundthefilter headand placeacontainer beneaththeengine. 2. Usingastrapspanner or similar tool, unscrewthefilter anti-clockwiseand discardit. 3.

Parts & accessories 177 Parts & accessories 178 Parts & accessories 179 180 181 This section of the handbook is devoted to your vehicles superb off-road driving capabilities. Before venturing off-road however, it is absolutely essential that inexperienced drivers become fully familiar with the vehicles controls, in particular the transfer gearbox, and also study the off-road driving techniques described on the following pages.

Wading 188 .................................................... 182 Off-road driving 183 WARNING Off-road driving can be hazardous! DO NOT take unnecessary risks. Be prepared for emergencies at all times. Your Range Rover has higher ground clearance and hence a higher centre of gravity than an ordinary passenger car. An abrupt manoeuvre at an inappropriate speed or on an unstable surface could cause the vehicle to go out of control. Familiarise yourself with the recommended driving techniques in order to minimise risks to yourself, your vehicle AND your passengers. Remove the CD autochanger before arduous off-road driving. Always ensure that seat belts are worn for personal protection in all off-road driving conditions. DO NOT drive if the fuel level is low - undulating ground and steep inclines could cause fuel starvation to the engine and consequent damage to the catalytic converter. DO NOT drive off-road alone or without letting someone know where you are going and when you plan to return. BASIC OFF-ROAD TECHNIQUES Thesebasic drivingtechniques arean introductionto theart of off-roaddrivingand do not necessarilyprovidetheinformation neededto successfullycopewith everysingle off-roadsituation. Westronglyrecommendthat owners who intendto driveoff-roadfrequently, should seekas much additional informationand practical experienceas possible. Gear selection Withthegearshift lever set at D, thegearbox automaticallyprovides thecorrect gear for the appropriategear rangeselected(HIGHor LOW). Remember that position1 will hold thegearboxin first gear to givemaximum enginebrakingwhen required. HIGHrangegears shouldbeusedwhenever possible; onlychangeto theLOWrangewhen ground conditions becomeverydifficult. Uncontrolledspinningof individual wheels will belimitedbytheviscous couplingunit which is combinedwith thecentredifferential. Braking As far as possible, vehiclespeedshouldbe controlledthrough correct gear selection. Applicationof thebrakepedal shouldbekept to an absoluteminimum. Harshbrakingon wet, muddyor loosesurfaces couldprove dangerous. NOTE: If the correct gear and gear range has been selected, braking will be largely unnecessary. Off-road driving 184 Use of engine for braking Beforedescendingsteepslopes, stop the vehicleat least its lengthbeforethedescent, movethegearshift lever to N, engageLOW rangeand then select 1 or 2 in themain gearboxdependingon theseverityof the incline. Whiledescendingtheslopeit shouldbe rememberedthat theenginewill provide sufficient brakingeffort to control therateof descent, and that thebrakes shouldnot be applied. Accelerating Usetheaccelerator with care; anysudden surgeof power mayinducewheel spinand result in loss of control of thevehicle. Steering WARNING DO NOT hold the steering wheel with your thumbs inside the rim; a sudden kick of the wheel as the vehicle negotiates a rut or boulder could seriously injure them. ALWAYS grip the wheel on the outside of the rim (as shown) when traversing uneven ground. Survey the ground before driving Beforenegotiatingdifficult terrain, it is wiseto carryout apreliminarysurveyon foot. This will minimisetheriskof your vehiclegetting into difficultythrough apreviouslyunnoticed hazard. Ground clearance For serious off-roaddrivingALWAYS remove thebib spoiler extensionfromthefront bumper (if fitted). Dont forget to allowfor ground clearance beneaththechassis, axles, and under the front and rear bumpers. Notethat theaxle differentials aresituatedBELOWthechassis and arepositionedslightlyto theLEFT of the centreof thevehicle. Notealso that thereare other parts of thevehiclewhichmaycome into contact with theground; wherepossible attempt to avoidobstacles that mayfoul the chassis or differentials. Groundclearanceis particularlyimportant at thebottomof asteepslope, or wherewheel ruts areunusuallydeepand wheresudden changes in theslopeof theground are experienced. On soft ground, theaxledifferentials will clear their own path in all but themost difficult conditions. However, on frozen, rockyor hard ground, if thevehicles progress is haltedas a result of groundingof thechassis, this will causethevehicleto riseautomaticallyto the Extendedprofile rideheight position. (see Air suspension for further details). Off-road driving 185 Loss of traction If thevehicleis immobiledueto loss of wheel grip, thefollowinghints couldbeof value: Avoidprolongedwheel spin; this will only makematters worse. Theelectronic tractioncontrol (ETC) will prevent rear wheel spin; drivewill bedivertedfroma spinningwheel and theremainingwheel will then providethetractionnecessaryto overcomedifficult drivingconditions. Removeobstacles rather than forcingthe vehicleacross them. Clear cloggedtyretreads. Reverseas far as possible, then attempt an increasedspeedapproach; additional momentummayovercometheobstacle. Brushwood, sackingor anysimilar material placedin front of thetyres may improvetyregrip. IMPORTANT INFORMATION After driving off-road Beforerejoiningthepublic highway, or drivingat speeds above25 mph (40 km/h), considerationshouldbegivento thefollowing: Wheels and tyres must becleanedof mud and inspectedfor damage- ensurethereareno lumps or bulges in thetyres or exposureof theplyor cordstructure. Brakediscs and calipers shouldbe examinedand anystones or grit that mayaffect brakingefficiency removed. Servicing requirements Vehicles operatedin arduous conditions, particularlyon dusty, muddyor wet terrain, and vehicles undergoingfrequent or deepwadingconditions will require morefrequent servicing. SeeOwner maintenance and contact aLand Rover dealer for advice. In addition: After wadingin salt water or drivingon sandybeaches, useahoseto thoroughly washtheunderbodycomponents and any exposedbodypanels with freshwater. This will helpto protect thevehicles cosmetic appearance. Off-road driving 186 DRIVING ON SOFT SURFACES & DRY SAND Theideal techniquefor drivingon soft ground and drysandrequires thevehicleto bekept movingat all times; soft ground and sand causes excessivedragon thewheels, resultingin arapidloss of motion once drivingmomentumis lost. For this reason, gear changingshouldbeavoided. Select thehighest suitablegear and REMAIN in that gear until afirmsurfaceis reached. It is generallyadvisableto useLOWrange gears, as thesewill enableyou to accelerate through worseningconditions without therisk of beingunableto restart. Stopping the vehicle on soft ground If you do stop thevehicle, remember: Startingon an inclineor in soft ground or sandmaybedifficult. Always park on afirm, level area, or with thevehiclefacingdownhill. To avoidwheel spin, select D position(or 4 if in LOWrange) and usetheMINIMUM throttlenecessaryto get thevehiclemoving. In LOWrange, select MANUAL mode. (see Automatic transmission for further information). If forwardmotion is lost, avoidexcessiveuse of thethrottle; this will causewheel spinand tend to dig thevehicleinto thesand. Clear sandfromaroundthetyres and ensurethat thechassis and axles arenot bearingon the sandbeforeagainattemptingto move. If thewheels havesunk, usean air bag lifting deviceor high lift jackto raisethevehicle, and then buildup sandunder thewheels so that thevehicleis againon level ground. If a restart is not possible, placesandmats or ladders beneaththewheels. DRIVING ON SLIPPERY SURFACES (ice, snow, mud or wet grass) Select D (or 4 if in LOWrange). In LOW range, also select MANUAL mode. (see Automatic transmission for further information). DriveawayusingtheMINIMUM throttle possible. Driveslowlyat all times, keeping brakingto aminimumand avoidingviolent movements of thesteeringwheel. DRIVING ON ROUGH TRACKS On veryrough tracks, engagetheLOWgear rangeto enableasteady, lowspeedto be maintainedwithout constant useof thebrake pedal. Off-road driving 187 CLIMBING STEEP SLOPES ALWAYS followthelineof theslope; travelling diagonallycouldencouragethevehicleto slide broadsidedown theslope. Steepclimbs will usuallyrequiretheLOWgear range. If thesurfaceis looseor slippery, use sufficient speedin thehighest practical gear to takeadvantageof thevehicles momentum. However, too high aspeedover abumpy surfacemayresult in awheel lifting, causing thevehicleto losetraction. In this casetrya slower approach. Tractioncanalso be improvedbyeasingoff theaccelerator just beforeloss of forwardmotion. If thevehicleis unableto completeaclimb, do not attempt to turn it aroundwhileon the slope. Instead, adopt thefollowingprocedure to reversedownhill to thefoot of theslope. 1. Holdthevehiclestationaryusingboth foot and handbrakes. 2. Restart theengineif necessary. 3. EngageLOWrangereversegear. 4. Releasethehandbrake. Then releasethe foot brakeand allowthevehicleto reverse down theslopeusingenginebrakingto control therateof descent. 5. Unless it is necessaryto stop thevehicle in order to negotiateobstructions, DONOT applythebrakepedal duringthedescent. 6. If thevehiclebegins to slide, accelerate slightlyto allowthetyres to regaingrip. Whenthevehicleis back on level ground or tractioncanberegained, afaster approach will probablyenablethehill to beclimbed. However, DONOT takeunnecessaryrisks, if thehill is too difficult to climb, find an alternativeroute. WARNING The engine must be restarted before reversing down the slope as there will be no braking effect from the gearbox unless the engine is running. Off-road driving 188 DESCENDING STEEP SLOPES A. Stop thevehicleat least avehiclelength beforetheslope, engageLOWrangeand then select thelowest gear. B. Unless it is necessaryto stop thevehicle in order to negotiateobstructions, DONOT touch thebrakepedal duringthedescent; theenginewill limit thespeedkeepingthe vehicleunder control providedthefront wheels areturning. If thevehiclebegins to slide, accelerategentlyto maintain directional stability. DONOT usethe brakes or attempt to changegears. C. Oncelevel ground is reached, select a suitablegear for thenext stageof the journey. WARNING Failure to follow these instructions may cause the vehicle to roll over. Off-road driving 189 TRAVERSING A SLOPE Beforecrossingaslopealways observethe followingprecautions: Check that theground is firmand not slippery. Check that thewheels on thedownhill side of thevehiclearenot likelyto drop into anydepressions in theground and that the uphill wheels will not run over rocks, tree roots, or similar obstacles that could suddenlyincreasetheangleof tilt. Ensurethat passenger weight is evenly distributed, that all roof rackluggageis removedand that all other luggageis properlysecuredand stowedas lowas possible. Always remember; anysudden movement of theloadcouldcausethe vehicleto overturn. Rear seat passengers shouldsit on the uphill sideof thevehicleor, in extreme conditions, shouldvacatethevehicleuntil theslopingground has beensafely negotiated. NEGOTIATING A V SHAPED GULLY Observeextremecaution! Steeringup either of thegullywalls couldcausethesideof the vehicleto betrappedagainst theopposite gullywall. DRIVING IN EXISTING VEHICLE TRACKS As far as possible, allowthevehicleto steer itself alongthebottomof theruts. However, always keepatight hold of thesteeringwheel to prevent it fromspinningfree. Particularlyin wet conditions, if thesteering wheel is allowedto spinfree, thevehiclemay appear to bedrivingstraight aheadin theruts, but in actual fact (dueto thelackof traction causedbywet ground) is unknowinglyon full right or left lock. Then, when level ground is reached, or if adrypatchis encountered, the wheels will find tractionand causethevehicle to suddenlyveer to theleft or right. Off-road driving 190 CROSSING A RIDGE Approachat right angles so that both front wheels cross theridgetogether; an angled approachcouldcausetractionto belost through diagonallyoppositewheels lifting fromtheground at thesametime. CROSSING A DITCH Cross ditches at an angleso that threewheels always maintaincontact with theground (if approachedheadon, both front wheels will drop into theditchtogether, possiblyresulting in thechassis and front bumper beingtrapped on oppositesides of theditch). WADING WARNING The maximum advisable wading depth is 20 in. (0, 5 metre). Severe electrical damage may occur if the vehicle remains stationary for any length of time when the water level is above the door sills. Beforewading, ensuretheelectronic air suspensionis set in either Standard or High rideheight. If thewater is likelyto exceed20 in. (0.5 metre) whilethevehicleis moving, the followingprecautions MUST beobserved: Fixaplastic sheet in front of theradiator grilleto prevent water fromsoakingthe engineand mud fromblockingthe radiator. Ensurethat thesilt bed belowthewater is freeof obstacles, and firmenough to support thevehicles weight and provide sufficient traction. Select High rideheight. Ensurethat theengineair intakeis above thewater level. Select alowgear and maintainsufficient throttleto prevent theenginefromstalling. This is particularlyimportant if theexhaust pipeis under water. Driveslowlyinto thewater and accelerate to aspeedwhichcauses abowwaveto form; then maintainthat speed. At all times, keepall thedoors fullyclosed. Off-road driving 191 After wading Drivethevehicleashort distanceand apply thefootbraketo checkthat thebrakes arefully effective. DONOT relyon thehandbrakealoneto hold thevehiclestationaryuntil thetransmission and brakes havethoroughlydriedout; in the meantime, usewheel chocks or leavethe vehicleparkedin gear. Removeanyprotectivecoveringfromin front of theradiator grille. If thewater was particularlymuddy, remove anyblockages (mud and leaves) fromthe radiator to reducetheriskof overheating. If deepwater is regularlynegotiated, checkall oils for signs of water contamination; contaminatedoil canbeidentifiedthrough its milky appearance. In addition, checktheair filter element for water ingress, and replaceif wet. Vehicles requiredto undergo frequent or deep wadingconditions will requiremorefrequent servicing. SeeOwner maintenance and contact aLand Rover dealer for advice. If salt water is frequentlynegotiated, thoroughlywashtheunderbodycomponents and exposedbodypanels, with freshwater. BIB SPOILER Thevehiclehas abib spoiler extensionfitted to thefront bumper to improveair flowduring normal drivingconditions. This MUST be removedwhen consideringserious off-road driving. Thebib spoiler is in two parts and is attached to theundersideof thefront bumper bysix springclips and eight plastic rivets. To remove: Usingascrewdriver, removetheinner locking pins fromthestuds, then removethestuds. Slidethespringclips off thebib spoiler, then separatethetwo halves of thespoiler. Storeall parts in asuitablecontainer pending refitment. To refit: Placeonehalf of thebib spoiler against the undersideof thefront bumper, install four studs and fit thelockingpins and threespring clips. Engagetheother half of thebib spoiler with thefirst half, then fit theremainingstuds and springclips, ensuringthat thelockingpins are fittedto thestuds. 192 Index 193 A Accessories 175 .............................................
