OWNER’S HANDBOOK
This handbook together with the Passport to Service, provides all the information that you will need to derive maximum pleasure from owning and driving your new Range Rover.
For convenience, the handbook is divided into sections, each dealing with a particular aspect of driving or caring for the vehicle. Sections are listed on the contents page and you will find it worthwhile to take a little time to read each one, and to get to know your Range Rover as soon as you possibly can. The more you understand before you drive, the greater the satisfaction when you are seated behind the steering wheel.

Introduction
PASSPORT TO SERVICE
Your new Range Rover is covered by the following warranties:
•Land Rover New Vehicle Limited Warranty
•Land Rover Corrosion Perforation Limited Warranty
•Land Rover Vehicle Emission Control System Warranty (U.S.A.)
•Land Rover U.S. Emissions Performance Warranty
Detailed information on these warranties can be found in the Passport to Service included in your literature pack. The Passport to Service also contains important vehicle identification information and useful consumer advice.
Most important of all, however, is the section on maintenance. This outlines the servicing requirements for your Range Rover and also incorporates the service record slips, which the retailer should sign and stamp to certify that routine services have been carried out at the recommended intervals.
REPORTING SAFETY DEFECTS
If you believe that your vehicle has a defect which could cause a crash or could cause injury or death, you should immediately inform the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in addition to notifying Land Rover North America Inc.
If NHTSA receives similar complaints, it may open an investigation and if it finds that a safety defect exists in a group of vehicles, it may order a recall and remedy campaign.
However, NHTSA cannot become involved in individual problems between you, your retailer or Land Rover North America.
To contact NHTSA, you may call the Auto Safety HOTLINE toll free at 1-800-424-9393 (or 202-366-0123 in the Washington, D.C. area) or write to NHTSA, U.S. Department of Transportation, Washington, DC 20590. You can also obtain other information about motor vehicle safety from the HOTLINE.

Introduction
SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING
Safety warnings are included in this handbook. These indicate a procedure which must be followed precisely care in order to avoid the possibility of personal injury or serious damage to the vehicle.
WARNING
Your Range Rover 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. If at all possible, avoid sharp turns or abrupt manoeuvres. As with other vehicles of this type, failure to operate the Range Rover correctly may result in loss of control or vehicle roll-over. For important safety information, be sure to read the "on-road" and "off-road" driving guidelines given later in this handbook.
CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNING
WARNING
Engine exhaust, some of its constituents and certain vehicle components contain or emit chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.

Introduction
VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION
If you need to communicate with a Land Rover retailer, you may be asked to quote the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN).
The VIN and other information concerning your vehicle can be found on the certification label affixed to the lock face of the front left-hand door, where shown.
In addition, the Federal VIN plate is mounted to the vehicle body in such a position that it is visible from the outside through the bottom corner of the windscreen on the driver’s side.
WARNING
DO NOT exceed gross weight or axle loads described on the vehicle certification identification label. Exceeding allowable vehicle and axle loads will increase the risk of tyre and suspension failure, increase vehicle brake stopping distance and adversely affect vehicle handling and stability which may result in a crash or rollover.

Introduction
ANTI-THEFT PRECAUTIONS whilst it may be difficult to deter the ’professional’ car thief, the majority of thefts are carried out by unskilled opportunists.
Therefore, take vehicle security very seriously and ALWAYS adopt this simple ’four point’ drill whenever you leave your vehicle - even for just a few minutes:
1.Fully close all the windows (and the sunroof).
2.Remove your valuable belongings (or hide them out of sight).
3.Remove the starter key.
4.Superlock the vehicle using the remote handset.
Thieves are attracted by ’vulnerable’ vehicles. Even if you have followed the ’four point’ drill, there is still much you can do to make your vehicle a less inviting target.
BE SAFE - NOT SORRY!
•Park where your vehicle can be easily seen by householders and passers-by.
•At night, park in well lit areas and avoid deserted or dimly-lit side streets.
•NEVER leave the keys in the vehicle.
•Do not keep important documents (or spare keys) in the vehicle - these are a real bonus for the thief.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Remember the breakdown safety code
If a breakdown occurs whilst travelling:-
•Wherever possible, consistent with safety and traffic conditions, the vehicle should be moved off the main thoroughfare, preferably onto the shoulder as far as possible. If a breakdown occurs on a freeway, pull well over to the inside of the hard shoulder.
•Switch on hazard lights.
•If possible, position the warning triangle (located on the underside of the loadspace floor panel - see
’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 areas).
•Consider evacuating passengers through the doors facing away from the traffic, to a safe area away from the vehicle as a precaution in case your Range Rover is struck by another 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.
•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’ in Section 1).
•Radio security code number: Your vehicle is delivered with the security code disabled. If you wish to have it actuated see your Land Rover retailer.
CAUTION
Never leave the security card inside the vehicle when it is unattended.
23
Locks & alarm
Your vehicle is fitted with a sophisticated electronic anti-theft alarm system. In order to ensure maximum security, you are advised to gain a full understanding of the system by thoroughly reading this section of the handbook.
LOCKING THE VEHICLE AND ARMING THE
ALARM
You have been supplied with two handset/keys (numbered 1 and 2). Whilst both are identical in operation, they transmit two different sets of information (see ’Key activated memory seats’). Replacement handsets are only available from a Land Rover retailer. Up to two further handsets (3 and 4) can also be obtained.
There are four methods for securing your vehicle:
1.’Superlocking’ using the handset - (recommended high security method).
2.’Superlocking’ using the key.
3.Locking using the handset.
4.Locking using the key.
FOR MAXIMUM SECURITY, ALWAYS ’SUPERLOCK’ THE VEHICLE USING THE HANDSET
(except when the vehicle is to be locked with passengers or animals inside).
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Emergency keys
In addition to the two handsets, you have also been supplied with two separate keys. These keys perform the same functions as the key part of the handset and are intended for emergency use only. DO NOT keep the keys inside the vehicle.
The handset
The radio remote handset has three buttons (described below). By pressing the appropriate button, the handset can be used either as a conventional key, or as a remote handset to either lock or ’superlock’ the vehicle.
1. Key release button.
•Press to release the key, which can then be used as a conventional key to operate the starter switch, glovebox and door locks.
24
Locks & alarm
2. Lock button (padlock symbol)
•press once to lock.
•press twice to ’superlock’.
3. Unlock button
•press once to unlock.
•press and hold to operate the ’Key activated memory seats’ facility (see ’Key activated memory seats’).
Once the security system is armed, the following features are activated:
•The central locking system locks all the doors and the tailgate.
•The perimetric alarm (protecting the doors, hood and tailgate) is armed.
•If ’handset superlocking’ is activated, the volumetric alarm is also armed (a sensor inside the passenger compartment monitors the interior space and activates the alarm if an intrusion into the passenger compartment is detected).
The volumetric sensor will enter a self-check mode each time you turn the starter switch off. It will remain active for 60 seconds, or until:
1.The driver’s door is opened and closed.
2.The vehicle is locked with the handset 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 device may not cause harmful interference.
2.This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. This applies to both alarm receivers and handset transmitter.
CAUTION
Any changes or modifications to the transmitter not expressly approved by the manufacturer or Land Rover North America could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
25
Locks & alarm
Anti-theft alarm indicator light
After locking the vehicle, the RED indicator light on the top of the fascia, close to the windscreen (arrowed in illustration) flashes rapidly for ten seconds to confirm that the security system has been successfully armed. After ten seconds, the indicator light adjusts to a slower frequency, and then continues to flash as an anti-theft deterrent until such time as the security system is disarmed.
If, whilst operating the handset (or key), the alarm sounds, this indicates that one of the doors, the hood or the tailgate is not properly closed (the message centre display will confirm which aperture is not secure).
Although the handset can be successfully operated from a significant distance from the vehicle, when locking it is wise to be close enough to visually confirm that the door locking buttons have dropped into place and that the indicator light confirms a successful 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 the message centre displays ’KEY BATTERY LOW’, this indicates that the handset batteries need replacing (see ’Handset batteries’).
SUPERLOCKING
If the vehicle is ’superlocked’ (with either the handset, or the key), the doors CANNOT be unlocked or opened from inside the vehicle.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
For the reason given above, DO NOT superlock the vehicle with passengers inside.
’Superlocking’ using the handset:
Press and release the ’lock’ button (1) on the handset twice (within 11/2 seconds). After 15 seconds you will hear ’superlocking’ engage.
If any door, the hood or tailgate is left open, a mislock will occur (see ’Mislock’).
If a window or sunroof is open, superlocking will engage immediately, however volumetric protection will not be activated.
To unlock:
Press and release the ’unlock’ button (2) on the handset once.
If the handset is inoperative, the vehicle can be unlocked by using the key in the driver’s door lock.
26
Locks & alarm
’Superlocking’ using the key:
Wherever possible the handset MUST be used to ’superlock’ the vehicle. However, if the handset is inoperative, the key can be used as follows:
Turn the key in the driver’s door towards the rear of the vehicle (and release) twice within 11/2 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 possible use the handset to unlock the vehicle - press and release the ’unlock’ button.
If necessary, the key can also be used to unlock a ’superlocked’ vehicle.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
If unattended passengers are to be left in the vehicle, it is recommended that they should lock the vehicle from inside by pressing down the driver’s door sill button.
If animals are to be left in the vehicle, volumetric protection MUST NOT be activated - any movement inside the vehicle could trigger the alarm.
NEVER leave children or animals unattended in 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 operate the central locking from inside the 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.
27
Locks & alarm
MISLOCK
A mislock will occur if:
•A door, hood or tailgate are left open.
•The key is left in the starter switch.
•An incomplete ’all close’ is attempted. The message centre will indicate the cause of a mislock e.g. ’SUNROOF BLOCKED’.
If a mislock occurs, a warning ’bleep’ will sound in which case you should unlock the vehicle, rectify the cause of the mislock and then re-lock the vehicle.
’ALL CLOSE’ FEATURE
The key activated ’all close’ feature enables you to use the key to close the windows and sunroof at the same time as you secure the vehicle.
To operate:
1.Ensure the doors, hood and tailgate are properly closed.
2.Turn and hold the key in the ’lock’ position (turn twice and hold on the second turn if ’Superlocking’).
The doors and tailgate will lock and the windows, followed by the sunroof 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 feature enables the handsets to be used to recall the pre-set electric seat/mirror positions when you UNLOCK the door. The two handsets are separately identified by different labels and by grey and black battery covers - key 1 corresponds to driver’s seat memory 1, and key 2 to seat memory 2 (see
’Seats’).
NOTE: If additional handset/keys have been obtained (key 3 & key 4), they are not linked to the memory seat system.
Press and hold the ’unlock’ button on the handset for 11/2 seconds (the indicator light on the handset flashes rapidly), and then release. The driver’s seat and both mirrors will move to the positions programmed into 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.
28
Locks & alarm
AUTO RELOCK
Auto relock ensures that, if the vehicle is unlocked accidentally, the vehicle will relock itself automatically after a 60 second delay.
Once the ’unlock’ button on the handset has been pressed, the alarm system will monitor the vehicle for 60 seconds. If any of the following occur during this period, the vehicle will remain unlocked:
•A door or the tailgate is opened.
•Interior movement is detected.
•The key is inserted into the starter switch, or the switch is turned to position ’I’.
However, if none of the above has occurred within 60 seconds, then the vehicle will automatically return to its previous ’locked’ state.
OPENING THE DOORS
When opening a door from outside the vehicle, it is recommended that the moving part of the handle is held by the fingers and that the door catch is operated by pushing with the thumb against the fixed part of the handle.
CHILD-PROOF LOCKS (rear doors only) Move the lever downwards (arrowed in illustration) to engage.
With the child-proof locks engaged, the rear doors cannot be opened from inside the vehicle, thereby avoiding the risk of a door being opened accidentally whilst the vehicle is moving.
WARNING
TO AVOID INJURY OR DEATH, NEVER LEAVE CHILDREN UNSUPERVISED IN THE VEHICLE.
29
Locks & alarm
INERTIA CUT-OFF SWITCH
This switch is a safety device that automatically unlocks the doors in the event of an accident or sudden impact (provided the starter switch is turned on). In addition, the inertia switch inhibits power to the electric fuel pump, turns off the heating and air conditioning fans, and turns on the hazard warning lights, which continue flashing until either the starter switch is turned off or the inertia switch is reset.
The switch is located behind the vertical panel in the right hand footwell. Remove the cover by using a coin to rotate the turnbuckle anti-clockwise and then prise the cover off.
When the switch is tripped, the message centre will alternately display; ’REFER HANDBOOK’ and ’INERTIA SWITCH’.
To reset the switch, press the rubber top (arrowed in illustration).
NOTE: The vehicle can be secured even if the switch has been tripped by removing the starter key, opening and closing one of the front doors and then locking the vehicle.
WARNING
Always check for fuel leaks before resetting the switch! Activating the switch when the fuel system has been damaged (evidenced by fuel leakage) will cause additional fuel leakage, increasing the risk of fire or personal injury.
30
Locks & alarm
Handset batteries
When the batteries need replacing, the message centre will display ’KEY BATTERY LOW’. To replace:
•Remove the battery cover by turning the cover anti-clockwise with a coin.
•Taking care not to touch the circuit board, prise the batteries from the cover and fit new ones (with the positive side facing the cover), and replace the cover.
The batteries should be replaced within 1 minute of removing the old ones, otherwise it may be necessary to re-synchronise the handset (see ’Handset synchronisation’). New batteries are available from your retailer.
NOTE: Finger marks on the batteries will adversely affect battery life. If possible, avoid touching the surface of the batteries, and wipe clean before fitting.
Handset synchronisation
The handset transmits a coded message, which changes each time a button is pressed. If a handset is operated too many times out of range of the vehicle or if the handset batteries are removed for longer than a minute, it may need to be re-synchronised.
To synchronise:
•If the vehicle is locked, press the ’unlock’ button on the handset and then unlock the vehicle using the key.
•If the vehicle is unlocked, press the ’lock’ button on the handset and then lock the vehicle using the key.
NOTE: Handset synchronisation cannot be achieved if the vehicle alarm is armed or if the handset batteries need replacing.
31
Tailgate
OPENING THE TAILGATE
With the vehicle unlocked, press the release button once to release the upper tailgate.
NOTE: There is a handle built into the lower edge of the upper tailgate to assist in opening and closing.
With the upper tailgate open, press the release button again to release the lower tailgate, which can then be lowered to the horizontal position.
NOTE: The tailgate cannot be opened if the vehicle battery is flat or disconnected; emergency access to the loadspace can only be achieved, by folding the rear seats from inside the vehicle, (see ’Seats’).
WARNING
Do not drive with the tailgate open; poisonous carbon monoxide fumes will enter the vehicle which could cause serious injury or death.
CLOSING THE TAILGATE
Raise the lower tailgate first and close firmly. Then lower and close the upper tailgate.
Always check that the tailgate is secure before driving and before leaving the vehicle unattended.
32
Message centre
Driver warning and information messages are displayed on the message centre in the lower part of the instrument pack. Messages have different priority levels and are grouped into the following categories.
CRITICAL WARNINGS
Critical warning messages are accompanied by an audible warning (three beeps). Messages are displayed continuously whilst the starter switch is turned on, and remain displayed whilst the fault persists.
DO NOT ignore these messages - TAKE CORRECTIVE ACTION IMMEDIATELY!
Critical warnings are displayed continuously, normally on the lower line of the message centre, but if more than one message is to be displayed, then the upper display line will also be used.
WARNINGS
Warning messages must be treated with some urgency. They will also be accompanied by an audible warning (three beeps) each time the message is displayed.
DO NOT ignore these messages - TAKE CORRECTIVE ACTION IMMEDIATELY.
Warning messages are displayed for approximately 4 seconds. If other warning messages are pending, the display time will be reduced to approximately 2 seconds.
INFORMATION MESSAGES
General
All information messages are displayed for approximately 4 seconds. If other messages are pending, the display time will be reduced to approximately 2 seconds. Note that ’Critical Warning’ and ’Warning’ messages always override ’Information’ messages.
These information messages are grouped into three categories:
Category 1
Messages in this category will be accompanied by a single beep when the message is displayed for the first time, and also when the starter switch is turned on or off. At any other time, only the message will be presented - TAKE CORRECTIVE ACTION AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
Category 2
Messages in this category will be accompanied by a single beep each time the message is displayed - if action is necessary, take corrective action as soon as possible.
Category 3
Messages in this category are NOT accompanied by an audible warning. Only the message will be displayed - TAKE CORRECTIVE ACTION AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

Seats
FRONT SEATS
Seat adjustment is only possible when the starter switch is turned to positions ’I’ or ’II’, or with a front door open when the switch is at position ’0’.
WARNING
•To avoid injury, ensure that fingers are kept clear of the seat tracks when adjusting the seats.
•To avoid the risk of loss of control and personal injury, DO NOT adjust the driver’s seat whilst the vehicle is in motion.
•ENSURE that the adjustable backrests are not reclined by more than 15 degrees when the vehicle is in motion.
•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.
The following functions are available:
Seat forward & rearward
Push and hold the switch forwards or backwards to move the seat to the desired position.
WARNING
Your vehicle is fitted with side impact airbags, The use of seat covers not approved for use with Range Rover side airbags will REDUCE OR ELIMINATE THE EFFECTIVENESS of those airbags in a crash.

Head restraints are designed to support the back of the head (NOT THE NECK) and to restrain rearward movement of the head in the event of a collision. The restraint must be positioned level with the head to be effective. Failure to properly position the head restraint will increase the potential for ’serious’ injuries.
Do not drive, or carry passengers with the head restraints removed.
Seat back adjustment
Twist the switch forward or backward, until the desired seat back angle is achieved.
WARNING
DO NOT allow occupants to travel with the seat backs reclined steeply rearwards. Optimum benefit is obtained from the seat belt, with the seat back angle set to 15 degrees from the upright (vertical) position. Failure to maintain the correct seat back angle will reduce the effectiveness of the seat belts and increase the risk of serious injury or death in a crash.

DRIVER’S SEAT/MIRRORS MEMORY
FACILITY
CAUTION
Before activating the seat/mirror memory, ensure that the area immediately surrounding the seats is clear of obstructions.
Your vehicle can memorise two different driver seating and mirror positions. To store the positions in the system memory, the starter switch must be turned to either position ’I’ or ’II’ and the transmission must NOT be in reverse gear.
Set the driver’s seat and both door mirrors to the required positions and store the settings by pressing and holding the SEAT MEMORY switch, together with either switch 1 or 2, for 2 seconds. ’MEMORY 1 STORED’ or ’MEMORY 2 STORED’ will be displayed on the message centre to confirm the storing action.
To recall your stored position, after the seat or mirrors have been moved by another driver, press and hold the appropriate switch (1 or 2); the seat and mirrors will return to the position stored by that memory switch. Once they have reached their memory positions, a tone will sound to confirm that the operation is complete.
NOTE: If the memory positions are stored whilst the lights are on, the illumination level of the instrument panel will also be stored in the memory.

Driver’s seat one-touch operation
The one-touch function is operated by briefly pressing the relevant memory switch (1 or 2). The seat will then automatically move to the memory position.
’One touch’ operation can be cancelled at any time by pressing either of the memory switches or any of the seat axis switches. Pressing either of the seat memory switches stops all movement immediately: pressing one of the axis switches cancels the memory seat movement, but starts the seat moving in the direction of the switch which is pressed. Release the switch to stop all movement.
•Automatic transmission: the one-touch function is NOT available when the engine is running and the gearshift lever is out of ’P’ (park).
Key activated memory seats
The key activated memory seat facility enables the handsets to be used to recall seat and mirror positions when you UNLOCK the doors.
If the vehicle had been superlocked using a handset, then pressing the UNLOCK BUTTON on handset 1 for more than 11/2 seconds, causes the driver’s seat and both mirrors to move to the position stored by memory switch 1. Pressing the UNLOCK BUTTON on handset 2 for more than 11/2 seconds, causes the driver’s seat and both mirrors to move to the position stored by memory switch 2.
Passenger seat memories
The operation of the passenger seat memories is the same as that for the driver’s, apart from the following:
•One-touch operation is available whenever normal memory operation is available.
•Passenger seat memories do not include the mirror positions or instrument panel illumination levels.
•The message centre will not confirm the storing of a memory position.

REAR SEAT
WARNING
DO NOT adjust any part of a seat whilst the vehicle is in motion. Vehicle movement may cause the unlatched seat to suddenly shift, potentially causing injury.
To avoid injury, ensure your fingers are clear of the seat latches when folding the rear seats.
Folding the rear seats
One, or both parts of the split rear seat, can be either partially folded to provide a useful horizontal surface, or fully folded to further increase the rear loadspace. Before folding either part of the rear seat, ensure that the outer rear seat belts are correctly stowed in their belt clips (see illustration). To avoid damaging the centre seat belt, roll the buckle neatly and stow it in the space provided at its anchor point in the centre of the rear seat.
To fold either part of the rear seat, press the appropriate release button ’A’, then fold the backrest down to position 1. To further increase the loadspace, fold the backrest and seat base together to position 2.
When returning the rear seat to its normal position, ensure that the backrest is securely latched in place before driving.
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. In a frontal impact, if the rear seat is not secured (fully latched), it may swing forward contacting the seat in front of it, increasing the risk of injury or death to occupants in those seats.
