Introduction

Congratulations on acquiring your new Land Rover vehicle. We trust that you will enjoy many years of safe, dependable driving.

This handbook forms part of the Owner literature supplied with your new vehicle. The first section is a Quick Start area, designed to aid the initial driver set up and explain some of the unique features. Please take the time to familiarise yourself with the equipment descriptions and operating instructions before you drive. The more that you understand about your new vehicle, the greater the safety, economy and pleasure you will derive from driving it.

To include vehicle design changes made after this handbook was printed, it may have been necessary to issue a handbook supplement. Any supplements will be stored in the literature pack. If further updates are required, they will be posted on the Land Rover internet site and can be accessed at; www.ownerinfo.landrover.com.

Remember to pass on the Owner Literature when reselling the vehicle. It forms an integral part of the whole vehicle package and will help to familiarise the next owner with this vehicle.

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

Important

The information contained in this handbook covers all vehicle derivatives and optional equipment. Some of the options may not be fitted to your vehicle, unless they formed part of the original vehicle specification. Therefore, some parts of this handbook may not apply to your vehicle. Furthermore, due to printing cycles, it may include descriptions of options before they become generally available.

We operate a policy of constant product improvement and therefore reserve the right to change specifications, without notice, at any time. While 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 Dealer, except in respect of personal injury caused by the negligence of the manufacturer or Dealer.

All rights reserved. No part of this publication may be reproduced, stored in a retrieval system or transmitted in any form, electronic, mechanical, photocopying, recording or other means, without prior written permission from Land Rover Customer Services.

Quick Start

AUTOMATIC MIRROR DIPPING

If your vehicle is fitted with the driver’s seat memory option, the door mirrors may dip when reverse gear is selected. This gives the driver a view of the curbside to aid vehicle positioning when reversing.

The feature is optional and can be adjusted by the user.

For more detailed information on automatic mirror dipping, see Reverse mirror dipping,

71.

RESONANCE WITH LOWERED WINDOWS

If a resonance/booming sound occurs with only the rear windows open, lowering an adjacent front window about 25 mm (1 inch) will greatly reduce the condition. This will change the frequency of the air volume moving in/out of the vehicle and thus lessen or remove the booming sound.

OCCUPANT DETECTION

The cushion of the front passenger seat is fitted with an occupancy detection system that measures the weight on the cushion and changes the passenger airbag status to suit.

The sensor will adjust the passenger airbag status and operate the status indicator as follows:

Seat

occupancy

status

Completely empty

Low weight occupant/ child seat/ object

Heavy occupant/ object

The operational status indicator is located on the passenger’s side of the instrument panel.

Insert

When inserting a disc into either player, ensure that the label side of the disc is facing upwards and present the disc to the slot. Do not push it into the slot, the player mechanism will draw the disc in automatically.

There will be a short pause whilst the player reads the information from the disc, which will then be displayed on the screen. Play will commence at the first track on the newly inserted disc.

Dual and DVDPlus discs

Please be aware that a new generation of DVD discs is being adopted by the music industry. They are known as Dual Discs or DVDPlus discs. They have digital music on one side and video content on the other. Current in-car audio systems with a front loading CD player may load and play this type of disc, however, it is likely that the disc will not eject and will block up the player. Such damage to a CD player will not be covered under warranty.

Before inserting a CD into the audio unit, select CD mode by pressing the CD button.

Note: On Premium audio units it is necessary to then select an empty CD slot, by pressing the appropriate disc selection button (e.g. 3). The six circles at the bottom left-hand side of the screen represent the six available CD slots. As soon as one has a CD in it, its number will appear in the circle.

FUEL FILLER

The fuel filler is located in the rear right-hand fender. Press and release the fuel filler flap to open.

The fuel filler flap springs out, revealing the filler cap.

Unscrew the filler cap and place it on the projection on top of the hinge of the fuel filler flap.

Insert the pump nozzle into the filler neck, pushing aside the spring-loaded cover.

When delivery is complete, withdraw the nozzle and replace the cap. Tighten the cap clockwise until you hear it click three times.

Fuel type

V8 engines Premium unleaded gasoline with a CLC or AKI octane rating of 91

or higher. See TYPE OF FUEL, 154.

Note: Mid or regular grade gasoline with a CLC or AKI octane rating of not lower than 87 may also be used, but performance and fuel economy will be reduced.

TIRE PRESSURES

Air pressure naturally increases in warm tires (after the vehicle has been driven for a while). If you have to check warm tires, you should expect the pressures to have increased by between 30 and 40 kPa (0.3 to 0.4 bar) (4 to 6

). In this circumstance, NEVER let air out

lb/in of the tires in order to match the recommended pressures.

General Information

HANDLING CHARACTERISTICS

WARNING

Your vehicle has a higher ground clearance and hence, a higher center 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 vehicle 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 manoeuvers. As with other vehicles of this type, failure to operate the vehicle correctly may result in loss of control or vehicle roll-over. For important safety information, be sure to read the driving guidelines given later in this handbook.

It is important that you are familiar with these subjects to ensure that your vehicle and its features are used safely. Using the index at the back of this handbook, refer to the relevant topic for more information.

ANTI-THEFT PRECAUTIONS

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. Lock the vehicle using the remote control

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.

DATA RECORDING

Event data recording

Event data recorders are capable of collecting and storing data during a crash or near-crash event. The recorded information may assist in the investigation of such an event. The modules may record information about both the vehicle and the occupants, potentially including information such as:

• How various systems in your vehicle were operating.

• Whether or not the driver and passenger seat belts were buckled.

• How far, if at all, the driver was depressing the accelerator and/or the brake pedal.

• How fast the vehicle was travelling.

• Where the driver was positioning the

steering wheel.

To access this information special equipment must be connected directly to the recording modules. Land Rover do not access event data recorder information without obtaining consent, unless pursuant to court order or where required by law enforcement, other government authorities or third parties acting with lawful authority.

Other parties may seek to access the information independently of Land Rover.

Locks and Alarms

ALARM SYSTEM

H5967G

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.

Anti-theft alarm indicator

H5969G

The indicator provides information about the status of the alarm and immobiliser systems, as follows:

When the alarm is armed:

The indicator will double flash for 10 seconds, then continue to single flash until the vehicle is disarmed and remobilised.

When the alarm is disarmed but the vehicle is immobilised (key out of starter switch):

The indicator will single flash until the alarm is armed or the vehicle is remobilised.

When the alarm is disarmed and the vehicle is mobilised (key in starter switch):

The indicator gives a one-second flash.

Page 33

Locks and Alarms

If the alarm sounds

If the alarm is triggered, the alarm will sound and the hazard warning lamps will flash for 30 seconds, before resetting to the same protection status that existed prior to the alarm being triggered.

To silence the alarm, press the lock or unlock button on the remote control or insert the key into the starter switch. Pressing the lock button will keep the alarm armed.

When the vehicle is disarmed, the hazard warning lamps will quickly flash eight times if the alarm has sounded since the vehicle was last armed.

Perimetric alarm

This feature is activated automatically whenever the vehicle is locked using the remote control and protects the doors, hood and tailgate.

If any of these apertures are opened, or a key that has not been programmed to the vehicle is inserted into the starter switch, while the feature is activated, the alarm will be triggered.

When the perimetric alarm is activated the direction/turn indicators will flash three times, and the anti-theft alarm indicator will flash.

Mislock

If an aperture is open when an attempt is made to lock the vehicle an audible warning will sound once to indicate that the vehicle is not secure.

Single-point entry

This is a personal security feature, which enables only the driver's door to be unlocked, leaving the other doors in a locked state.

Single-point entry can be disabled on individual remote controls by pressing and holding the lock and unlock buttons together for three seconds.

All doors will now unlock with a single press.

Repeating the procedure will re-enable single point entry.

Each time single-point entry is enabled or disabled, the vehicle will lock then unlock into the selected mode.

ENGINE IMMOBILISATION

Engine immobilisation is an important aspect of the security system. It is designed to safeguard the vehicle from theft, should the driver forget to lock the doors. The system prevents the engine from being started unless the GENUINE remote control key is inserted into the starter switch.

Engine immobilisation is automatic five seconds after the key is removed from the starter switch.

Note: The engine will be re-mobilised automatically whenever the genuine remote control key is inserted into the starter switch.When this happens, the anti-theft alarm indicator will illuminate for one second and then extinguish.

Page 34

Locks and Alarms

LOCKING/UNLOCKING

While it is not necessary to point the remote control at the vehicle, the remote control must be within range of the vehicle when a button is pressed.

Note: If the remote control fails to work even when close to the vehicle, it could be that it is not synchronised with the system. See Emergency locking/unlocking, 35. Putting the key in the starter switch and running the engine for six minutes will restore full operation.

The operating range may vary depending upon remote control battery condition and may sometimes be limited by physical and geographical factors beyond your control.

Note: If a key is in the starter switch, the vehicle will not respond to remote control commands.

Locking with the remote control

Remove the key from the starter switch and shut all doors, the hood and the tailgate.

The four buttons on the remote control are used as follows:

Locks and Alarms

Partial arming

If the driver’s door is not fully closed when the remote control lock button is pressed, the doors will remain unlocked and the alarm will remain disarmed. A brief sound from the vehicle horn will confirm that the door is not fully closed.

If a passenger door or other aperture is not fully closed when the remote control lock button is pressed, the partial arming attributes of the security system will enable as much of the system to be armed as possible (all fully closed door, hood or tailgate apertures will be protected, but an open one will not).

A brief sound from the vehicle’s horn will confirm that an aperture is not fully closed.

As soon as the open aperture is closed, the system will automatically arm, signalled by three flashes of the hazard warning lamps.

Emergency locking/unlocking

Under a removable cap on the left front door outer handle, there is an emergency-use door lock.

Removing the cap

1. Insert the key fully into the slot under the

FRONT SEATS

WARNING

To reduce the risk of loss of control and personal injury, DO NOT adjust the driver's seat while the vehicle is in motion.

Seats

Sitting correctly

The seats, head restraints, seat belts and airbags all contribute to the protection of the occupants. Optimal use of these components will give you more protection. Therefore, observe the following points:

• Sit in the most upright position with the base of your spine as far back as possible and the backrest reclined not more than A 30 degrees.

• Do not move the driver’s seat too close to the steering wheel. Ideally, a minimum distance B of at least 25 cm (10 in.) between the center of the breastbone and the cover of the steering wheel airbag is recommended. The driver should hold the steering wheel with slightly bent arms. The legs should also be slightly bent so that the pedals can be pressed to the floor.

• The seat belt should rest in the center of the shoulder. The lap part should fit tightly across the hips and not on the stomach.

Make sure your driving position is comfortable and enables you to maintain full control of the vehicle. A properly adjusted seat helps reduce the risk of injury from sitting too close to an inflating airbag.

Note: For information on adjusting the steering column, see STEERING COLUMN ADJUSTMENT, 69.

Seat Belts

SEAT BELTS

The use of front and rear seat belts is mandatory in most states. Using seat belts saves lives. They should be worn by all occupants whenever the vehicle is in use, for maximum protection.

Lap/shoulder inertia reel seat belts are provided for both front seat occupants and all rear seat positions.

The inertia reel operating mechanism of the seat belts allows the wearers to move their upper bodies to reach various controls. The seat belt locks automatically with accelerated body movement or in the event of emergency braking.

The seat belts include a buckle sensor to detect when the buckle is latched.

The front seat belt assemblies are fitted with pre-tensioners. The pre-tensioners operate with the airbags as part of the Airbag Supplementary Restraint System (SRS). See

HOW THE AIRBAG SRS WORKS, 63.

Seat belt warning indicator

Seat belt warning commences when the starter switch is turned to position ll and the driver’s belt is unbuckled.

Seat belt reminder

A warning chime will sound (one second frequency) if the driver's seat belt has not been fastened when the starter switch is turned on. The chime operates in conjunction with the seat belt warning indicator and sounds for 6 seconds, or until the seat belt is fastened (whichever occurs first).

SEAT BELT PRETENSIONERS

The seat belt pretensioners activate in conjunction with the airbag SRS and provide additional protection in the event of a severe frontal impact on the vehicle (see HOW THE AIRBAG SRS WORKS, 63). The pretensioners automatically retract the seat belts fitted to the front seats. This reduces any slack in both the lap and diagonal portions of the belts, thereby reducing forward movement of the belt wearer in the event of a severe frontal collision.

The airbag SRS warning indicator on the instrument pack will alert you to any malfunction of the seat belt pretensioners.

If the pretensioners have been activated, the seat belts will still function as restraints, and must be worn in the event that the vehicle remains in a driveable condition.

Note: The seat belt pretensioners will be activated in major side and frontal impacts and in roll-overs.

WARNING

The seat belt pretensioners will only be activated once and then MUST BE REPLACED by a Land Rover Dealer. Failure to replace the pretensioners will reduce the efficiency of the vehicle's front restraint systems.

After any impact, always have the seat belts and pretensioners checked and, if necessary, replaced by a Land Rover Dealer.

In the interests of safety, it is recommended that removal or replacement of the front seats and seat belts should only be carried out by a Land Rover Dealer.

Seat Belts

Seat belt locking mechanism

The passenger seat belts have a special locking mechanism which retains large items securely.

To use:

1. Place the item on the seat.

2. Pull the seat belt around the item, using

both the lap and shoulder parts of the belt.

3. Fasten the seat belt.

4. Pull on the shoulder part of the belt to

unreel all of the remaining belt. This will engage the automatic locking feature which only allows the belt to retract.

5. Allow the seat belt to retract onto the item

(a clicking sound will confirm that the mechanism has engaged).

6. Ensure that there is no slack in the seat belt

by pulling upwards on the shoulder belt immediately above the item. The item will now be held firmly in position by the belt.

When the seat belt is released and is allowed to fully retract, the seat belt locking mechanism reverts to normal operation.

WARNING

Where possible, use the seat belt automatic locking mechanism to secure large items that are to be carried on the seats. In the event of an accident, loose items become projectiles capable of causing serious injury. Care must be taken to prevent any sharp edges damaging the belt.

Use the seat belt automatic locking mechanism to restrain pets in harnesses or pet carriers when not utilising the loadspace.

SEAT BELT USE DURING PREGNANCY

WARNING

Position the seat belt correctly for the safety of the mother and unborn child. Never wear just the lap strap and never sit on the lap strap when using just the shoulder strap. Both of these actions are extremely dangerous and may increase your risk of serious injury in the event of an accident.

Position the lap strap comfortably across the hips, beneath the abdomen. Place the diagonal part of the seat belt between the breasts and to the side of the abdomen. Ensure that the seat belt is not slack or twisted.

H6016G

WARNING

Never place anything between you and the seat belt in an attempt to cushion the impact in the event of an accident. It can be dangerous and reduce the effectiveness of the seat belt in preventing injury.

Page 53

Seat Belts

SEAT BELT SAFETY

WARNING

Seat belts are life saving equipment. In a collision, occupants not wearing a seat belt can 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 properly worn. It may even result in loss of life.

Make sure ALL occupants are securely strapped in at all times - even for the shortest journeys.

The airbag supplemental restraint system (SRS) is designed to add to the overall effectiveness of the seat belts. It does not replace them. SEAT BELTS MUST ALWAYS BE WORN.

Seat belts are designed to bear upon the bony structure of the body and should be worn low across the pelvis, chest and shoulders, as applicable; wearing the lap section of the belt across the abdominal area must be avoided.

DO NOT wear seat belts over hard, sharp or fragile items in clothing, such as pens, keys, spectacles, etc.

Seat belts should be adjusted as firmly as possible, consistent with comfort, to provide the protection for which they are designed. A slack belt will greatly reduce the protection afforded to the wearer.

DO NOT allow front seat occupants to travel with the seat backs reclined steeply rearwards. Optimum benefit is obtained from the seat belt with the seatback angle set to no more than 30 degrees from the upright.

WARNING

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.

Belts should not be worn with the straps twisted.

Each belt assembly must only be used by one occupant; it is dangerous to put a belt around a child being carried on the occupant’s lap.

It is essential to replace the entire assembly after it has been worn in a severe impact even if damage to the assembly is not obvious.

No modifications or additions should be made by the user which will either prevent the seat belt adjusting devices from operating to remove slack, or prevent the seat belt assembly from being adjusted to remove slack.

Should the seat belt not retract and remain at its static length, consult your Land Rover Dealer immediately.

Care should be taken to avoid contamination of the webbing with polishes, oils and chemicals, and particularly battery acid. Cleaning may safely be carried out using mild soap and water. The belt should be replaced if webbing becomes frayed, contaminated or damaged.

Page 54

Seat Belts

FRONT SEAT BELTS

Fastening the seat belts

H6017G

Pull the belt over the shoulder and across the chest and, ensuring that the webbing is not twisted, insert the metal tongue plate into the buckle nearest the wearer - a CLICK indicates that the belt is securely locked.

Releasing the belt

Press the RED button on the seat belt buckle.

WARNING

Never wear just the lap strap of a lap/shoulder diagonal seat belt and never sit on the lap strap using just the shoulder strap. Both of these actions are extremely dangerous and may increase your risk of serious injury.

Upper anchorage adjustment

H6018G

The height of the seat belt upper anchorage can be adjusted for comfort AND safety on both front seats. Press down (solid arrow) to release the catch, then lift or push down to adjust the height of the anchorage. For safety, the seat belt should always be worn with the webbing crossing the shoulder MIDWAY BETWEEN THE NECK AND THE EDGE OF THE SHOULDER.

Ensure the anchorage has clicked into one of the locked positions before driving.

Where possible, rear seat passengers should adjust their position on the seat to enable the seat belt webbing to cross the shoulder without pressing on the neck.

WARNING

Maladjustment of the seat belt could reduce its effectiveness in a crash. Always ensure that the anchorage is correctly located and properly locked in one of the height positions before driving and DO NOT adjust the height once the vehicle is in motion.

Page 55

Seat Belts

CARING FOR SEAT BELTS

Regularly inspect the belt webbing for signs of fraying, cuts and wear; also pay particular attention to the condition of the fixing points and adjusters.

DO NOT bleach or dye the webbing and avoid contaminating the webbing with polish, oil or chemicals (see Seat belts, 254).

Testing inertia reel belts

• With the seat belt fastened, give the webbing near the buckle a quick upward pull. The buckle must remain securely locked.

• With the seat belt unfastened, unreel the webbing to the limit of its travel. Check that unreeling is free from snatches and snags and then allow the belt to FULLY retract.

• Partially unreel the webbing, then hold and give it a quick forward pull. The mechanism must lock automatically and prevent any further unreeling.

If a seat belt should fail any of these tests, contact your Land Rover Dealer immediately.

WARNING

Always replace a seat belt that shows signs of webbing damage or has withstood the strain of a severe vehicle impact.

Service information

WARNING

DO NOT attempt to service, repair, replace, modify or tamper with any part of the pretensioner and airbag SRS, or wiring in the vicinity of a pretensioner or airbag SRS component; this could cause the system to activate, resulting in personal injury.

In addition, ALWAYS contact your Land Rover Dealer if:

• an airbag inflates.

• a pretensioner activates.

• the front or side of the vehicle is damaged,

even if the pretensioner has not activated.

Note: If the vehicle is parked on ground that is not level, the seat belt mechanism may lock. This is not a fault; gently ease the belt from the upper anchorage to release.

Child Restraints

CHILD SEATS

The seat belts fitted to your vehicle are designed for adults and larger children. For their safety, it is very important that all infants and children under 12 years are restrained in a suitable child safety seat appropriate to their age and size.

Only fit a child seat that has been approved for use in your vehicle, and ensure that the manufacturer's fitting instructions are followed exactly.

For optimum safety, children should travel in the rear of the vehicle at all times, front passenger seat travel is NOT recommended.

Note: Crash statistics show that children are safer when properly restrained in the rear seating positions, than they are in the front.

However, if it is essential that a child travel in the front, set the seat fully rearward and seat the child in a FORWARD FACING child seat.

This symbol affixed to the passenger side B post of your vehicle, warns against the use of a REAR-FACING child seat in the front passenger seat, when a

passenger airbag is fitted and operational.

WARNING

EXTREME HAZARD. Do not use a rearward facing child restraint on a seat protected by an airbag in front of it. There is a risk of serious injury or death when the airbag deploys.

Seat belt locking mechanism

The passenger seat belts have a special locking mechanism which aids the retention of child seats. The procedure to install a child seat is as follows:

1. Place the child seat in the vehicle, attach

the seat belt and secure the buckle in accordance with the manufacturer’s fitting instructions.

2. Pull on the shoulder section of the belt to

unreel all of the remaining webbing to the limit of its travel. This will engage the automatic locking feature, which then acts as a ratchet, allowing the webbing ONLY to retract.

3. Allow the seat belt to retract onto the child

seat (a clicking sound will confirm that the ratchet has engaged), while firmly pushing the child seat into the vehicle seat.

4. Ensure that there is no slack in the seat belt

by pulling upwards on the shoulder belt immediately above the child restraint. This seat belt should now be locked and the child seat held firmly in position.

When the child seat is removed and all of the seat belt webbing is allowed to retract, the seat belt locking mechanism reverts to normal operation.

WARNING

Do not use a forward-facing seat until a child is above the minimum weight of 9 kg (20 lb.) and able to sit up unaided. Up to the age of two, a child’s spine and neck are not sufficiently developed to avoid injury in a frontal impact.

Page 57

Child Restraints

Child restraints for small children and babies

Child seats and restraint systems designed for your vehicle will be one of two types:

• Those secured in vehicle seats by the seat belts.

• LATCH type child restraints employing anchor bars built into the rear seat frame.

All new and most older type child restraint systems incorporate a tether strap which can be attached to an anchorage point on the vehicle. See Tether anchorages, 59.

Child restraints for larger children

In a situation where a child is too large to fit into a child safety seat, but is still too small to safely fit the 3 point seat belt properly, a booster seat is recommended for maximum safety. Follow the manufacturer’s fitting instructions exactly, then adjust the seat belt to suit.

WARNING

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. 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. Children could be endangered in a crash if their child restraints are not properly secured in the vehicle. 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.

Page 58

Child Restraints

LATCH CHILD RESTRAINTS (Rear seats)

Both outer, rear seating positions in your vehicle are equipped to accept LATCH restraints.

This symbol on the label sewn into the seats indicates the location of the LATCH lower anchorages.

Fitting LATCH child restraints

LATCH child restraints should only be fitted in the two outer seating positions of the rear seats. Anchor bars built into the rear seat frame, enable the LATCH restraints to be securely attached to the vehicle seat only in these positions.

In addition, two tether anchor bars are fitted to back of the rear seats, to secure child restraint anchor straps.

When fitting LATCH child restraints, always follow the instructions supplied by the manufacturer of the restraint.

Once the LATCH restraint is installed, you are recommended to test the security of the installation before seating the child. Attempt to twist the restraint from side to side and to pull the restraint away from the vehicle seat; then check that the anchors are still securely in place.

WARNING

If the restraint is not correctly anchored, there is a significant risk of injury to the child in the event of a collision or emergency braking.

H6019G

WARNING

DO NOT attempt to fit LATCH restraints to the center seating position - the anchor bars are not designed to hold a LATCH restraint in this position.

Page 59

Child Restraints

Tether anchorages

Upper tether anchorages are provided for each seating position equipped to accept LATCH child restraints. Move the hinged panel to expose the anchor points.

FRONT OF VEHICLE

H6381K

Attaching tether straps

1. Install the child restraint securely in one of

the second row seating positions.

2. Pass the tether strap over the back of the

vehicle seat and beneath the underside of the head restraint.

3. Attach the clip on the head of the tether

strap to the tether anchor on the back of the vehicle seat.

4. Tighten the tether strap according to the

manufacturer’s instructions to remove any slack in the webbing.

WARNING

Always follow the child seat or restraint system manufacturer’s instructions when fitting tether straps.

When fitting a child seat or restraint system, always pass the tether strap over the top of the seat back and beneath the underside of the head restraint.

If a child seat or restraint system is to be fitted to the center seating position, the center armrest must be in the stowed position (folded into the seat).

Note: Always ensure that, if an upper tether is provided, it is secured and tightened properly as this provides the maximum protection for a child.

WARNING

Child restraint anchorages are designed to withstand only loads imposed by correctly fitted child restraints. Under no circumstances are they to be used for adult seat belts, harnesses or for attaching other items or equipment to the vehicle.

• Set children a good example - always wear your seat belt.

Page 61

Airbag SRS

H6606N

WARNING

The airbag is a supplementary restraint system that provides ADDITIONAL protection in a severe impact only - it does NOT replace the need to wear a seat belt. To reduce the risk of severe injury or death in the event of a crash, all occupants in all seating positions, including the driver, should always wear their seat belt, whether or not an airbag is present at that seating position.

Ensure that a gap is maintained between the side of the vehicle and the head and torso, to enable unobstructed inflation of the curtain and seat mounted side airbags.

DO NOT lean out of the window.

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 effects of airbag inflation can be reduced, by ensuring driver and passenger are seated correctly, with the seat moved back as far as is practical, and the seat belts worn correctly.

National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) recommends a minimum distance of 10 inches (25 cm) between an occupant’s chest and the driver’s airbag module.

NEVER attach accessory items to an airbag module cover.

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.

Page 62

Airbag SRS

INTRODUCTION

The airbag supplementary restraint system (SRS) incorporates front airbags, seat mounted side airbags and curtain airbags for the driver and front passenger and curtain airbags for the rear seat outboard passengers (see illustration for airbag locations). These are indicated by the word AIRBAG on the trim.

Provided occupants are correctly seated, with seat belts properly worn, the airbags will provide additional protection to the chest and facial areas of the front seat occupants in the event of the vehicle receiving a severe frontal impact, and also to the side of the body facing the impact, if a severe side collision occurs.

In the event of a side collision or a roll-over, curtain airbags will afford additional protection to the side of the head facing the impact for the front seat and outer rear seat occupants.

Airbag SRS warning indicator

A warning indicator mounted in the instrument pack will alert you to any malfunction of the airbag

SRS. See Warning Indicators, 93. The airbag SRS should always be checked by a Land Rover Dealer if any of the following symptoms occurs:

• The warning indicator fails to illuminate when the starter switch is turned to position ll.

• The warning indicator fails to extinguish within approximately four seconds after the starter switch is turned to position ll.

• The warning indicator illuminates after the engine is started, or while the vehicle is being driven. When the starter switch is turned to position II, the diagnostic control unit monitors the readiness of the system’s electrical circuits. The elements of the system being monitored include:

• SRS warning indicator

• Rotary coupler

• Airbag modules

• Seat belt pre-tensioners

• Airbag diagnostic control unit

• Crash sensors

• Airbag wiring harnesses

• Seat occupancy sensor

Page 63

Airbag SRS

HOW THE AIRBAG SRS WORKS

In the event of a collision, the airbag control unit monitors the rate of deceleration induced by the collision, to determine whether the airbags should be deployed.

Operation of the airbag SRS is dependent on the rate at which the vehicle's passenger compartment changes speed as a result of a collision. The circumstances affecting different collisions (vehicle speed, angle of impact, type and size of object hit, for example), vary considerably and will affect the rate of deceleration accordingly.

Note: The airbag SRS is not designed to operate as a result of:

•

rear collisions.

•

minor front impacts.

•

minor side impacts.

•

heavy braking.

•

driving over bumps and potholes.

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 arrange for a Land Rover representative to inspect the vehicle to determine whether the system operated correctly.

It follows, therefore, that significant superficial damage can occur without the airbags deploying or, conversely, that a relatively small amount of structural damage may cause the airbags to be deployed.

Dual stage deployment

The front airbags deploy in two stages, depending on the severity of the frontal collision. The unit monitors the rate of deceleration during the impact.

In a moderately severe frontal impact, the airbags inflate sufficiently to protect the front seat passengers and reduce the risk of injury.

The driver’s seat has a seat position switch, which governs the deployment of the driver’s dual stage front airbag. The sensor detects the fore-aft position of the seat and selects the level of driver airbag deployment between a full energy deployment or a reduced energy deployment, if deployment is required.

In a severe frontal impact, the airbags will fully inflate thereby providing maximum protection unless the driver’s seat additional sensor determines that a reduced power deployment is required.

Airbag inflation is virtually instantaneous and occurs with considerable force, accompanied by a loud noise. The inflated bag, together with the seat belt restraint system, limit the movement of an occupant, thereby reducing the risk of injury to the head and upper torso.

In the case of a severe frontal collision, both front airbags will be deployed. In the case of a severe side collision, only the seat mounted side airbags and curtain airbags on the impacted side of the vehicle will inflate.

However, there may also be impact conditions whereby one set of side and both front airbags deploy at the same time, or where front and side airbags respond separately as a result of a secondary impact occurring after the initial collision has taken place.

Page 64

Airbag SRS

Front mounted airbags

H6027L

Note: Airbags will only deploy when they are required to supplement the restraining force of the front seat belts.

Side and curtain airbags

WARNING

For the curtain airbags to deploy correctly, the roof lining and A post trim must be undamaged and fitted correctly. Any damage or suspect fitting should be referred to a Land Rover Dealer for examination.

H6663L

Curtain airbags are designed to protect the head in the event of a severe side impact or roll-over event. They will NOT inflate as a result of frontal or rear impacts alone.

The curtain airbag modules are located behind the roof lining and pillar finisher, above the doors. In the event of a severe side collision, the airbag pushes out from behind the roof lining and pillar finisher as it inflates. The curtain airbag remains inflated for longer than the other airbags, to provide additional head protection in the event of a secondary impact/vehicle roll-over.

Page 65

Airbag SRS

Deployment effects

After inflation, the front and seat mounted side airbags deflate immediately (curtain airbags deflate slowly). This provides a gradual cushioning effect for the occupant and also ensures that the driver's forward vision is not obscured.

WARNING

When an airbag inflates, a fine powder is released. This is not an indication of a malfunction. However, the powder may cause irritation to the skin and should be thoroughly flushed from the eyes and any cuts or abrasions of the skin.

Following inflation, some airbag SRS components are hot - DO NOT touch until they have cooled.

WARNING

Even with airbag SRS 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 rear impacts, 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.

Obstruction of airbags

WARNING

Do not allow passengers to obstruct the operation of the airbags by placing feet, knees or any other part of the person, or any other objects in contact with, or in close proximity to, an airbag module.

DO NOT attach or position items on, or close to the roof lining, A, B and C post finishers, front seat backs or to an airbag cover, which could interfere with the inflation of the airbag or, if the airbag inflates, be propelled inside the vehicle causing injury to the occupants.

To ensure correct deployment of the airbags, it is essential that obstructions are not allowed to intervene between an airbag and the occupant. The following are examples of the type of obstructions that could either, impede correct operation of the airbags, or jeopardise personal safety in the event of an airbag deployment:

H6607N

• Accessories attached to or obscuring an airbag cover, including; the roof lining, A, B and C post finishers and the seat backs of the front seats.

• Items of hand luggage, or other objects placed on an airbag cover.

Page 66

Airbag SRS

• Feet, knees or any other part of the anatomy in contact with, or in close proximity to, an airbag cover.

• Head, arms or any part of the anatomy in contact with, or in close proximity to, a seat mounted side airbag.

• Items of clothing hanging from the grab handle attached to the roof.

• Items of clothing or cushions draped over the part of the front seat containing the airbag.

• Non-approved seat covers/accessory seat covers over a front seat; in particular, seat covers that have not been designed for use with side airbag. If in doubt, consult your Land Rover Dealer.

Caution: If a non-approved phone system is to be fitted, ensure that the installer is aware of the SRS system.

Note: Unauthorised modification of the vehicle or parts may invalidate the vehicle’s warranty.

Disability modifications

Occupants with disabilities that may require the vehicle to be modified must contact a Land Rover Dealer before any modifications are made.

Occupant detection

The front passenger seat is fitted with an occupancy detection system that determines if the seat is unoccupied, occupied by a person of low weight, a child seat or object, or is occupied by a heavier person or object.

The system consists of:

• A weight sensing pressure pad installed under the front passenger seat cushion. The sensor measures downwards pressure/weight on the seat cushion.

• A seat belt tension sensor integrated into the anchor point of the front passenger seat belt.

• A control unit installed under the front passenger seat.

• An airbag status indicator lamp, mounted on the instrument panel.

The system will adjust the passenger airbag status and operate the status indicator as follows:

Seat

occupancy

status

Completely empty

Low weight occupant/ child seat/ object

Heavy occupant/ object

Passenger

airbag status

Deactivated No

Deactivated Yes

Activated No

indicator

Status

It is possible to receive an intermittent indicator with an empty seat condition. This is part of the system’s adaptive behaviour, and does not affect the status of the passenger airbag. However, if the indicator becomes permanently illuminated when the seat is definitely empty, or when an adult occupant is seated then contact your Land Rover Dealer immediately.

WARNING

Do not use a child restraint on a seat protected by an operational airbag in front of it.

There is a risk of death or serious injury when the airbag deploys.

The safest place for children is properly restrained in the rear seats.

Door Mirrors

Reverse mirror dipping

Vehicles with driver’s seat memory have a pre-stored function, which allows the door mirrors to dip whenever reverse gear is selected, giving the driver a view of the curbside.

When this feature is first turned on, the mirrors will dip to a preset amount. See SELECTING SETTINGS OPTION, 77. The degree of dipping can be programmed using the following sequence:

1. Insert the starter key and turn it to position I or ll. Do not start the engine.

2. Adjust the seat and the exterior mirrors to

the correct position and perform a memory-store routine. See Setting a

memory pre-set, 46.

3. Select reverse gear - the mirrors will dip to

a preset level.

4. Adjust the mirrors to the required dipped position.

5. Perform a memory-store sequence.

6. DOOR MIRROR DIP STORED will be

displayed on the message center.

7. A single chime will sound from the instrument pack.

This feature can be enabled or disabled by a Land Rover Dealer or by the driver. See SELECTING SETTINGS OPTION,

1. Tachometer

Indicates engine speed in revolutions per minute (x 1000). In normal driving conditions the engine is most fuel efficient between 2000 and 3000 rev/min.

2. Temperature gauge

At normal operating temperature, the pointer will be positioned midway between the RED and BLUE segments of the gauge (the precise position will vary according to climatic conditions).

If the pointer moves above the mid point, the engine coolant is becoming too hot. Should the pointer move INTO the RED segment and the RED warning indicator within the gauge illuminates, severe engine damage could occur (under these circumstances, the air conditioning may switch off and engine performance may reduce in order to minimise engine load).

56789

H6055G

Stop the vehicle as soon as safety permits and switch off the engine and allow to cool down. If the problem persists, seek qualified assistance before continuing.

3. Fuel gauge

When the starter switch is turned to position II, the pointer quickly rises to show the level of fuel in the tank.

When the remaining fuel reaches a minimum of 12 litres (3 gallons) on petrol vehicles, the AMBER low fuel warning indicator in the fuel gauge illuminates.

H6056G

The remaining fuel should give a range of approximately 80 km (50 miles).

The small arrow visible alongside the fuel pump symbol on the gauge indicates the side of the vehicle on which the fuel filler is located - a useful reminder to help you position the vehicle on the correct side of the gasoline pumps before refuelling.

Caution: NEVER allow vehicles to run out of fuel as the resultant misfire may damage the catalytic converter.

SERVICE INTERVAL INDICATOR

H6066G H6068G

The service interval indicator is a market configurable feature and may not be enabled. If the feature is enabled, the display will become active when a pre-determined distance or time before service is reached. These pre-determined values are market dependent.

When the starter switch is turned to position I and the pre-determined value is reached, a distance countdown to the next service appears in the display. A minus sign preceding the distance indicates that the service interval point has been exceeded by that distance.

After approximately five seconds, the display reverts to show the total distance travelled.

Note: After the completion of each service, the Land Rover Dealer will reset the distance display for the countdown to the next service.

GEAR SELECTOR DISPLAY

This shows the current gear lever position and indicates when LOW range has been selected.

Warning Indicators

Caution: RED warning indicators are of particular importance; their illumination indicates that a fault exists. If a RED warning indicator illuminates, stop the vehicle safely and review the specific instructions given in this section.

The location and specification of the warning indicators may vary according to model and market requirements.

For ease of identification, the warning indicator descriptions have been grouped into the five locations on the instrument pack.

These are:

• background

• tachometer

• fuel/temperature gauge

• message center

• speedometer

BACKGROUND

Direction/turn indicators - GREEN

An indicator flashes in time with the corresponding left or right

direction/turn indicator lamps whenever they are operated. If the warning indicator fails to flash, or flashes very rapidly, this may indicate a bulb failure in one of the direction/turn indicator lamps.

If the hazard switch is pressed, both warning indicators will flash in conjunction with the direction/turn indicator lamps.

Trailer - GREEN

The indicator illuminates as a bulb

check when the starter switch is

turned to position II and extinguishes when the engine is started.

If a trailer is attached to the vehicle and the direction/turn indicators are used, this indicator will flash in synchronisation with the direction/turn indicator lamps. If it does not flash, this indicates that a trailer bulb is defective.

Page 94

Warning Indicators

TACHOMETER DISPLAY

Battery charging - RED

Illuminates as a bulb check when the starter switch is turned to position II and extinguishes once

the engine is running. If it remains on, or illuminates whilst driving, a fault with the battery charging system is indicated. Seek qualified assistance urgently.

Low oil pressure - RED

Illuminates as a bulb check when the starter switch is turned to position II and extinguishes when

the engine is started. If the indicator remains on, flashes on and off, or illuminates whilst driving, stop the vehicle as soon as safety permits and SWITCH OFF THE ENGINE IMMEDIATELY. Seek qualified assistance before driving. Always check the oil level when this indicator illuminates.

Check engine - AMBER

Illuminates as a bulb and system check when the starter switch is

turned on and extinguishes as soon as the engine is started. Illumination at any other time indicates an engine fault. If the indicator illuminates continuously while driving, the emission performance of the engine management system is impaired - seek qualified assistance.

If the indicator flashes while driving, immediately reduce engine power to avoid catalytic converter damage.

Seat belt - RED

Illuminates when the starter switch is turned to position II and

extinguishes after approximately 6 seconds, even if the driver's seat belt remains unfastened. In some markets illumination of the indicator will be accompanied by a warning chime. See AUDIBLE WARNINGS, 98.

Note: In certain markets, the indicator will illuminate until the driver’s seat belt is fastened correctly.

Airbag SRS - RED

The indicator illuminates when the

starter switch is turned to position

II and extinguishes after about 4 seconds. If the indicator illuminates at any other time, there is a fault with the system seek qualified assistance urgently.

Adaptive Cruise Control active

Illuminates when Adaptive Cruise Control detects a vehicle in front and will react to it.

Suspension- AMBER/RED

This lamp is shared between the Air suspension system and Dynamic Response.

The lamp illuminates both RED and AMBER briefly as a bulb check when the starter switch is turned to position II.

Page 95

Warning Indicators

If illumination occurs whilst driving, a fault with one of the systems is indicated, as follows:

• If the lamp shows RED (a flashing red lamp which changes to constant illumination after two minutes, and is accompanied by a warning chime): This indicates a system fault that may result in serious damage to vehicle components and reduced Dynamic Response performance. Stop the vehicle as soon as safety permits and switch off the engine. DO NOT CONTINUE DRIVING! Seek qualified assistance immediately.

The following message will be displayed in the message center window to accompany a red warning lamp for a dynamic response system failure:

SUSPENSION FAULT, STOP SAFELY, STOP ENGINE.

If the following message is displayed in the message center:

SUSPENSION FAULT, MAX SPEED 50KPH (MAX SPEED 30MPH)

This indicates an air suspension fault, with the system not being able to control ride height. In which case the maximum speed indicated should not be exceeded until the fault has been rectified.

• If the lamp shows AMBER (constant illumination): This indicates a system fault that will result in reduced Dynamic Response performance but will not leave the vehicle in a dangerous condition. You may continue driving, but reduce speed, take additional care, and consult a Land Rover Dealer at the earliest opportunity. The ride quality of the vehicle may be reduced in this condition.

The following message will be displayed in the message center window to accompany an amber warning lamp:

SUSPENSION FAULT, VEHICLE LEAN, WHEN CORNERING.

If the following message is displayed in the message center:

SUSPENSION FAULT, NORMAL HEIGHT ONLY.

This indicates an air suspension fault, but the vehicle can still be driven normally.

LOW gear- GREEN

Illuminates when LOW range has been selected; flashes during range change.

Hill Descent Control (HDC) information GREEN

Illuminates briefly as a bulb and system check when the starter switch is turned to position II and

also illuminates when HDC is selected.

If HDC is selected and all operating conditions are met, the indicator will illuminate continuously.

If HDC is selected and all operating conditions are not met (vehicle in neutral gear and vehicle speed above HDC operating range) the indicator will flash.

If a fault with the HDC system occurs, HDC will fade-out and then deselect, or deselect immediately (depending on the type of fault and whether or not HDC is in operation). The green indicator will extinguish and the message SYSTEM NOT AVAILABLE will appear in the message center.
