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 easilyseen
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).
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.
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.
1. Key release button.
• Press to release the key, which can then
be used as a conventionalkey 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 assistanceto 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 interferencethat 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 1
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.

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
1
1
/2seconds.
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’.
