Introduction

This handbook covers all current versions of Land Rover Discovery petrol and diesel models and,
together with the other books in your literature pack, provides information that you will need to
derive maximum pleasure from owning and driving your new vehicle.

For your convenience, the handbook is divided into sections, each dealing with a different aspect of
the vehicle. These are listed on the title page and you will find it worthwhile to take a little time to
read each one, and get to know your Discovery as soon as you possibly can. The more you
understand before you drive, the greater the satisfaction once you are seated behind the steering
wheel.

*An asterisk appearing within the text, identifies features or items of equipment that are either

optional, or are only fitted to some vehicles in the model range.

IMPORTANT

The specification of each vehicle will vary according to territorial requirements and also from model
to model within the vehicle range. Some of the information published in this handbook, therefore,
may not apply to your particular vehicle.

Land Rover operates a policy of constant product improvement and therefore reserves the right to change specifications without
notice at any time. Whilst every effort is made to ensure complete accuracy of the information in this handbook, no liabilities for
inaccuracies or the consequences thereof can be accepted by the manufacturer or the dealer, except in respect of personal injury
caused by the negligence of the manufacturer or the dealer.

Quick Overview

NOTE: Some music CD manufacturers are using data encryption to 'copy-protect' their recordings
and prevent the production of pirate copies. These CDs differ from the internationally agreed CD
audio standard, RedBook, a standard that serves as the operating basis for all CD players and
changers.

Copy-protected CDs may not play in your Audio unit or CD changer or may be played subject to
various limitations, e.g., sound quality may be impaired.

If you do experience a problem, try the CD in other players before contacting the CD vendor.

FUEL FILLER

The fuel filler is located in the rear right-hand
wing. With the starter switch turned to position
‘0’ or ‘I’, press the binnacle switch to release the
filler flap.

The filler cap is designed to allow the fuel tank
to vent during the first half turn. Carefully
loosen the cap one half turn until resistance is
felt, and allow fuel tank pressure to be released.
Once the pressure is released (hissing has
stopped), it is safe to fully remove the filler cap.

When replacing, tighten the cap clockwise until
you hear the fuel cap ratchet click at least three
times.

TYRE PRESSURES

Air pressure naturally increases in warm tyres
(after the vehicle has been driven for a while). If
you have to check warm tyres, you should
expect the pressures to have increased between
30 and 40 kPa (4 to 6 lbf/in2). In this
circumstance, NEVER let air out of the tyres in
order to match the recommended pressures.

Loading condition

Pressure - kPa (lbf/in2)

Normal operating conditions Front 211 kPa (30 lbf/in2)

Rear 262 kPa (38 lbf/in

Vehicle loaded to maximum gross
vehicle weight

Front 211 kPa (30 lbf/in
Rear 322 kPa (46 lbf/in

NOTE: For more detailed information, see ‘WHEELS & TYRES’, page 236.

BEFORE YOU DRIVE

WARNING

Your vehicle has a higher ground clearance
and hence, a higher centre of gravity than
ordinary passenger cars. This will result in
different handling characteristics.
Inexperienced drivers should take additional
care, particularly in off-road driving
situations and when performing abrupt
manoeuvres on unstable surfaces.

SYMBOLS USED

The following symbols used within the
handbook call your attention to specific types of
information.

This recycling symbol identifies those

items that must be disposed of safely in
order to prevent unnecessary damage to the
environment.

This symbol identifies those features that

can be adjusted or disabled/enabled by a
Land Rover Dealer/Authorised Repairer

WARNINGS IN THIS HANDBOOK

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.

SECURITY CARD

The security card, supplied with the literature
pack, contains important emergency
information. It is ESSENTIAL that you keep the
card safe from theft and ensure that it is passed
to the new owner if you sell the vehicle.

• Key number: This is the number of the

starter/door key - essential if you ever need
to obtain a replacement.

• Emergency key access code: You will need

this code in order to start the vehicle if the
handset has been lost or damaged (see
‘Emergency key access’, page 34).

• Locking wheel nut number: If your vehicle

has locking wheel nuts, you will have been
provided with a special wheel nut socket to
remove them. You will need to quote this
number to obtain a replacement socket.

• VIN (vehicle identification number): This

identity number is unique to your vehicle
and is essential proof of its specification.
The number can also be found in various
locations around the vehicle (see ‘VEHICLE

IDENTIFICATION NUMBER (VIN)’,
page 191).

• Radio security code number: This unique

code must be entered into the radio
whenever the power supply has been
disconnected. Without this code, the radio
unit will not operate (see 'Security code' in
the 'In-Car Entertainment' book).

WARNING

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

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

Before You Drive

SERVICE PORTFOLIO

The Service Portfolio book included in your
literature pack contains important vehicle
identification information, details of your
entitlement under the terms of the Land Rover
Warranty, as well as useful consumer advice.

Most important of all, however, is the section
on maintenance. This outlines the servicing
requirements for your vehicle and also includes
the service record slips, which the
Dealer/Authorised Repairer should sign and
stamp to certify that the routine services have
been carried out at the recommended intervals.

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!

Before You Drive

IN AN EMERGENCY

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Remember the breakdown safety code

If a breakdown occurs while travelling:

• Wherever possible, consistent with

road safety and traffic conditions, the
vehicle should be moved off the main
thoroughfare, preferably into a lay-by. If
a breakdown occurs on a motorway,
pull well over to the inside of the hard
shoulder.

• Switch on hazard lights.

• If possible, position a warning triangle

or a flashing amber light at an
appropriate distance from the vehicle to
warn other traffic of the breakdown,
(note the legal requirements of some
countries).

• Consider evacuating passengers

through nearside doors onto the verge,
as a precaution in case your vehicle is
accidentally struck by other traffic.

Locks & Alarm

Locks & Alarm

ALARM SYSTEM

Your vehicle is fitted with a sophisticated
electronic anti-theft alarm and engine
immobilisation system. There are also a
number of additional security features, some of
which are selectable options and some are
standard features of the vehicle. In order to
ensure maximum security and operating
convenience, you are strongly advised to gain a
full understanding of the features and
alternatives available, by thoroughly reading
this section of the handbook.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

FOR MAXIMUM SECURITY ALWAYS
SUPERLOCK THE VEHICLE USING THE
REMOTE HANDSET (except when
passengers are to be left inside or if it is
necessary to leave a window or sunroof
open).

Using the remote handset

H4402

While it is not necessary to point the handset at
the vehicle, the handset must be within range of
the vehicle when a button is pressed. Note that
the operating range may vary depending upon
handset battery condition and may sometimes
be limited by physical and geographical factors
beyond your control. From a security point of
view, it may not be wise to unlock unless you
are within a few feet of the vehicle.

Locking

With the remote handset:
Press the lock (padlock symbol) button once:

• all doors are superlocked (see

‘Superlocking’, page 31)

• engine immobilised

• perimetric alarm activated (protects the

doors, bonnet and taildoor)

• interior space protection
The direction indicator lights flash three times

to confirm that the vehicle is secure and the
anti-theft alarm indicator light (in the
instrument panel) starts to flash.
