Rover 2006 Owner Manual

OWNER’S HANDBOOK

Publication Part No. LRL 18 02 54 602

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.

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.

WARNINGS AND SYMBOLS

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

Cautions

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.

General Information

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.

Reporting Safety Defects

REPORTING SAFETY DEFECTS (U.S. ONLY)

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 Dealer or Land Rover North America Inc.

Auto safety hotline

To contact NHTSA, you may call the Vehicle Safety Hotline toll-free at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY: 1-800-424-9153); go to http://www.safecar.gov; or write to: Administrator, NHTSA, 400 Seventh Street SW., Washington, DC 20590.

You can also obtain other information about motor vehicle safety from http://www.safecar.gov.

Keys and Remote Controls

Controls and Instruments

KEYS AND REMOTE CONTROLS

H5966G

You have been supplied with two remote controls with integral keys which operate all of the vehicle’s locks.

The operation of all buttons, on remote controls, will be inhibited whilst a key is in the starter switch.

Note: The remote control may not operate correctly in areas that are subject to interference from other radio equipment operating on a similar frequency. Areas where, for example, equipment such as amateur radio, medical devices, telecommunications equipment or other remotely operated alarms are in use may cause difficulty. If such difficulties are experienced, try to operate the remote control as close as possible to the vehicle, or use the key in the door lock. See Emergency locking/unlocking, 35.

The remote controls supplied with your vehicle are programmed to your security system - the engine cannot be started without a remote control programmed to your vehicle.

Caution: Keep the spare remote control in a safe place - NOT IN THE VEHICLE.

Note: Should a remote control be lost or damaged, a replacement can only be obtained from your Land Rover Dealer, where it will be programmed to your vehicle. The Dealer will require proof of ownership, and keep a log of all enquiries for replacement remote controls.

It is advisable to notify your Dealer as soon as possible if a remote control is lost or stolen, and have the remaining remote control reprogrammed. This will prevent access to the vehicle using the lost/stolen remote control.

Compliance

The remote control complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following conditions:

• This device may not cause harmful interference.

• This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

Any changes or modifications to the remote control not expressly approved by the manufacturer or Land Rover North America Inc. could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

Battery recharge

Insert the key into the starter switch and start the engine. This will start to recharge the remote control battery.

Battery disposal

Used batteries should be recycled. However, batteries are hazardous - you should seek advice about disposal from

a Land Rover Dealer or your local authority.

Vehicle security

For your own safety, and that of the vehicle, when the vehicle is left unattended you should:

• Apply the parkbrake.

• Remove all keys and remote controls from

the vehicle prior to locking the doors.

• Close all doors, windows, luggage compartment (including blind), sunroof, and glovebox.

• Park the vehicle where it is visible (a well lit area after dark).

• Keep your vehicle’s keys safely out of sight.

• NEVER leave children or pets unattended in

the vehicle.

• NEVER leave luggage or valuables on display.
