Radio Tuning
If you know the frequency of the radio
RADIO TUNING
station you are seeking, or you need to select a radio station that is too weak to be found by automatic tuning, use manual tuning, as follows:
Select the desired waveband (FM or AM), then press the ’MAN’ button (6). By briefly pressing either tuning button (5), the frequency changes (either up or down) in steps of 0.1 MHz for FM, or 9 kHz for AM.
Fast manual tuning
By keeping either manual tuning button depressed, the waveband is scanned rapidly (up or down) until the button is released.
Automatic tuning
Select the required waveband (FM or AM), then briefly press one of the tuning buttons (5) - (’SEEK’ along with the chosen waveband appear in the display).
The radio automaticallysearches the frequency range (either up or down depending upon which button is pressed) looking for a station of acceptable strength. The search then stops unless you choose to continue by pressing the tuning button again.
The search can be stopped at any time by pressing any pre-set button.
Local radio stations
Reception of most local radio stations is intentionally limited to a comparatively small area around the transmitter.
ICE0103
Waveband scan
Select the desired waveband (FM or AM) and press the SCAN button (8). The radio scans through the waveband, seeking stations of acceptable strength (the waveband, frequency and ’SC’ are displayed). The radio stops at each one it finds and plays that station for 5 seconds, the radio then mutes and scans for the next station.
To stop the scan, press the button again ­the radio commences playing the station at which the scan was stopped.
NOTE: If you have a car telephone with a
mute signal output connected to the radio, the radio automaticallymutes when the telephone is in use.
MONO/STEREO
Whenever the FM waveband is selected, the radio automaticallyreproduces stereo sound, provided a suitable signal is available. However, if a signal becomes too weak for good stereo reception, only mono sound is produced until the signal strengthens sufficiently for stereo sound reproduction.

Auto-store
ICE0104
Auto-store enables you to rapidly tune and store the strongest FM and AM radio signals in a single operation. This facility is particularlyuseful if you are in an unfamiliar area and have little knowledge of local transmitter frequencies.
Programming auto-store
Press and hold the appropriate waveband selection button (3 or 4) until a bleep sounds (the radio mutes and the display shows either ’FM AUTOSTORE’ or ’AM AUTOSTORE’).
Auto-store scans the waveband to find the six strongest frequencies and then stores them on either the FM2 or AM2 pre-set buttons in order of signal strength.
NOTE: Auto-store overwrites any stations
already stored on the FM2 or AM2 pre-set buttons.
Radio play resumes when the operation is complete.

Radio Reception
Distortion, interference and lack of signal clarity, are often attributed to a fault in the radio - this is rarely the case.
Problems of this kind are usually caused by phenomena such as atmospheric conditions, signal strength, hilly terrain, tall buildings, bridges and even electrical interference from power lines.
Please remember: A car radio receives signals while the vehicle is in motion (unlike a domestic set) - constantly changing direction and moving away from, or nearer to, the transmitter whilst negotiating terrain with widely differing reception characteristics.Some interference is to be expected from time to time.
FM transmitters can only broadcast over a limited range and good, clear signals will only be receivedin the immediate area of the transmitter. When travelling, it may be
necessaryto re-tune the radio from time to time, to offset the effects of moving from one transmitter area to another.
The broadcast range for good stereo reception (usually within a 30 to 40 mile radius of the transmitter) is noticeably less than it is for mono.
FM Signals (like light waves) travel in a straight line, so large obstacles, such as tall buildings, can shield the car from the signal causing distortion or loss of reception (known as dead spots).
Distortion can also occur if FM signals received directly from the transmitter mix with signals which have been reflected by obstructions such as mountains, hills and tall buildings (this is known as multi-path distortion).

Care of Cassette Player and Tapes
Use only good quality tapes with a maximum capacity of ninety minutes (C90). Check that both spools rotate freely and remove any loose turns at the start of the tape by winding one spool with a pen or pencil.
Cassette player
In use, the tape head accumulatesdust and contamination, gradually impairing sound reproduction and, in extreme cases, reducing volume too. To combat contamination, clean the tape head periodically(after approximatelyevery 20 hours playing time) by passing a wet type cleaning cassette through the player.
NOTE: Because your cassette player is fitted
with auto reverse, the cleaning cassette must be played in both directions.
The tape will require more frequent cleaning in winter, as contamination is greater in conditions of low temperature and increased humidity. However, the use of good quality tapes, keeps the build up to a minimum.
Cassette tapes
Always store cassettes in their boxes
when not in use. Never leave cassettes in the vehicle
during extremes of temperature. In particular, do not leave tapes in direct sunlight as they may warp and become unuseable, or jam the tape player mechanism.
Fast forward, or rewind tapes every 8 to
10 plays to prevent them from becoming too tightly wound.
Ensure that labels attached to the cassette
are glued firmly in place. DO NOT leave tapes in the cassette player
for more than a few hours in very cold or humid conditions - the oxides on the tape surface may contaminate the cassette player mechanism.
NOTE: After continuous playing, cassettes
may become hot to touch. This is normal and will not harm good quality tape.

Caring for Compact Discs
IMPORTANT
Use standard 12cm CDs only.
DO NOT use irregularly shaped or
damaged CDs - these may damage the compact disc changer.
8cm CD singles must NOT be used,
even if a CD adaptor is fitted. The CD autochanger should not be
used in temperaturesoutside the range -10
In th unlikely event that the CD
autochanger overheats, ’CD OVER TEMP’ will be displayed- change to radio or tape mode until the unit has cooled.
The CD autochanger should only be
used as described- any other application or method of use could result in the user being exposed to invisible laser radiation exceeding the limit of laser class 1.
NOTE: Additional magazines can be
obtained from a Land Rover dealer.

Cto+60°C.
CARING FOR COMPACT DISCS
Dirt, dust, condensation and heat can damage discs. Always observe the following precautions:
NEVER touch the horizontal playing surface (the unlabelled side) of a disc! Handle discs by holding the outer edges, or the edge of the central hole and the outer edge, between finger and thumb.
ALWAYS return discs to their boxes after use (dirt detracts from the sound quality).
NEVER leave the disc or the box exposed to excessiveheat or direct sunlight!
NEVER use a solvent or abrasive cleaner! Dust or dirt should be removed from the playing surface by wiping with a clean, dry, lint-free cloth always wipe in a straight line from the centre to the edge of the disc!

Security Code
SECURITY CODE INFORMATION
NOTE: Your vehicle was delivered with the
security code disabled, if you wish to have the code activated, consult your Land Rover dealer.
To reduce the risk of theft, Range Rover radio/cassetteand CD players are programmed with a four digit security code. Once activated,this code prevents the unit from functioning if it is illegally removed from the vehicle. There are 10,000 different codes - making your radio equipment valuelessto a thief unless he has the correct one. In addition, each unit is further protected by a time delay penalty system that effectivelydefies even the most systematic attempt to break the code.
NOTE: If an incorrect code is entered, a one
minute time delay is imposed before a second code can be attempted. Each time a wrong code is entered, the time delay doubles (2 min, 4 min, 8 min, etc.) making theft a very unattractive proposition.
The vehicle was supplied with a Security Information card. This card contains a record of the four digit security code, as well as the unit’s unique serial number. The serial number is also stamped into the metal side of the unit and, in the event of theft, would confirm proof of ownership.
It is VERY IMPORTANT that you keep a safe record of the security code and heed the following advice:
NEVER keep a record of the security code
in the vehicle. PLEASE stick the securitywarning
stickers where the potential thief is sure to see them, but where they do not impede your vision of traffic and pedestrians.
If you lose your code number, contact the
nearest Land Rover dealer, who will be able to obtain this information for you.

Security Code
ICE0106
ENTERING THE SECURITY CODE
If the code has not already been entered, or power to the set has been interrupted, the code MUST be entered before the set will operate. Enter the code as follows:
Switch on the radio (’CODE’appears in
the display). Press pre-set button 1. Press either the up or down tuning button
(highlighted in illustration) until the first digit of the security code appears in the display. Press pre-set 1 to store the first digit in the unit’s memory.
Use either tuning button to select the
second digit of the code (correct digit appears in the display). Press pre-set 1 to store the second digit.
Select the third digit, again using the
tuning buttons (until the correctdigit is displayed). Press pre-set 1 to store the third digit.
Select the final digit (the display now
shows the full four digit code). Press pre-set 1 to store the final digit.
If the correct code has been selected, a two-tone bleep sounds and the radio will operate.
NOTE: If an incorrect code has been entered,
the first time delay period commences. During the delay period, ’WAIT’ appears in the display - DO NOT switch off. At the end of the delay period, ’CODE’ reappears in the display and you can then enter the correct code. Remember; the time delay period doubles each time an incorrect code is entered.
