Alarm

ARMING THE ALARM

The alarm system is automatically
armed, and the engine immobilised,

when the remote lock button is
pressed. The hazard lamps will flash to indicate
that the alarm is armed.

Once armed, the alarm will sound if:-

• a door, the bonnet or the taildoor are

opened.

• movement is detected within the vehicle

interior.

• the vehicle battery is disconnected.

• an attempt is made to disconnect the alarm

siren.

Note: If the alarm is armed and a window or the
sunroof are left open the alarm will sound due
to movement of air currents.

Alarm indicator

E85180

The alarm status is displayed by the indicator in
the speedometer.

• Indicator off - alarm disarmed.

• Indicator flashes rapidly for 10 seconds

when the remote lock button is pressed,
then adjusts to a slower frequency - the
alarm has been armed.

• If the indicator fails to adjust to a slower
frequency after the initial 10 second
period, the remote control battery needs
replacing.

• Indicator flashes rapidly when the alarm is
disarmed - the alarm has been triggered.

• Indicator flashes slowly - the engine is
immobilised, but the alarm is disarmed.

• Indicator illuminates (without flashing) for
10 seconds before adjusting to a slow
frequency flash - the driver's door is not
closed.

Engine immobilisation

Engine immobilisation prevents the engine
from being started without a valid key and
remote control and is activated whenever the
alarm is armed using the remote control. In
addition, the immobiliser activates
automatically under the following conditions:

• Thirty seconds after the starter switch has
been turned off and the driver's door is
opened.

• Five minutes after the starter switch is
turned off or after the alarm system is
disarmed (if the starter switch has not
been turned on).

Note: Details on how to deactivate engine
immobilisation are given later in this section.
See DISARMING THE ALARM (page 36).

Alarm

DISARMING THE ALARM

When the vehicle is unlocked using
the remote control, the alarm is

automatically disabled and the
engine is remobilised. The hazard lamps will
flash once to indicate that the alarm is disabled.

Note: If the remote control is lost, damaged or
fails to operate, it is necessary to enter the
emergency key access code, to disarm the
alarm and deactivate engine immobilisation.

Deactivating engine immobilisation

Engine immobilisation is deactivated
automatically whenever the vehicle is unlocked
using the remote control. Engine
immobilisation is also deactivated when the
starter switch is turned to position II, provided
the remote control is on the same key ring as
the key and in close proximity to the switch.

If, however, the remote control is damaged, or
fails to operate, immobilisation can only be
deactivated by entering the emergency key
access code.

Emergency key access

Note: If the remote control cannot be used, it is
impossible to disarm the alarm in the normal
way. The alarm will sound (for 30 second
durations) as soon as a door is opened and will
continue until the code has been entered.

To deactivate engine immobilisation manually,
in the event of remote control failure, follow the
procedure below to enter the unique four digit
emergency key access code. The code for your
vehicle is recorded on the Security card.

E85179

1. Remove the remote control from the key

ring and keep it well away from the starter
switch while entering the code.

2. Unlock the driver's door using the key,

open the door and enter the vehicle. Shut
the driver's door.

3. Insert the key in the starter switch, turn
and hold the key in position II until the
alarm sounds. Then, turn off the starter
switch and open and close the driver's
door.

4. Turn the starter switch to position II the
required number of times to enter the first
digit of the code (if the digit is 4, turn the
key to position II and then back to position

0 four times).

5. Open and close the driver's door (this will

enter the first digit of the code).

6. Turn the starter switch to position II and
back to 0 the required number of times to
enter the second digit of the code, then
open and close the driver's door.

7. Turn the starter switch to position II and
back to 0 the required number of times to
enter the third digit of the code, then open
and close the driver's door.

36

Alarm

8. Turn the starter switch to position II and
back to 0 the required number of times to
enter the fourth digit of the code, then
finally, open and close the driver's door
one more time.

If the code has been entered correctly, the
alarm indicator will extinguish, the alarm will
stop sounding and the engine can be started.

If an incorrect code has been entered:

If the code is entered incorrectly, the alarm
sounder will sound twice, the alarm indicator
will continue to illuminate and the engine will
fail to start. Before entering the code again,
turn the starter switch to position II and hold in
this position for five seconds.

After three failed entry attempts, the security
system invokes a delay period of 30 minutes,
during which the system will not accept further
attempts to enter a code.

Memorise the emergency key access code or
keep the Security card on your person, in case
of emergencies. Never leave the card in the
vehicle.

Deactivating the alarm when triggered

If the alarm has been triggered it can be
deactivated by pressing either of the remote
control buttons.

Audio introduction

Audio introduction

RADIO RECEPTION

E81779

Some interference is to be expected from time
to time during a journey. Occasionally it may be
necessary to retune the audio unit to offset the
effects of moving from one transmitter area to
another.

While Radio Data System (RDS) automatic
retuning helps to reduce the effects of signal
changes, some manual retuning may still be
required (especially for local stations) in areas
of weak reception.

FM Signals travel in a straight line so large
obstacles, such as tall buildings, can shield the
vehicle from the signal, causing distortion or
loss of reception (known as dead spots).

Distortion can also occur if FM signals received
directly from the transmitter, mix with signals
deflected by obstructions such as mountains,
hills and tall buildings. This is known as
multi-path distortion.

Note: Although distortion, interference and
lack of signal clarity are sometimes attributed
to a fault in the radio, this is rarely the case.

Radio aerial

CAUTION

The radio aerial should be fully lowered,
before the vehicle enters an automated

car wash.

E88514

Raise the aerial, as shown, to improve radio
reception.

SECURITY CODE

The security code is entered into the head unit
during manufacture; it is not necessary to enter
the code during normal vehicle usage.
However, in the event of a battery reset, e.g.
subsequent to a flat battery or head unit
change, the head unit will prompt for a security
code.

Entering a security code

The vehicle is delivered to the user with a
security code card; the user must enter the
code using the numeric (radio preset) buttons
to resume operation of the head unit. For
example, if the code is 1234 the user must
press the number 1 button once, the number 2
button twice, the number 3 button three times
and the number 4 button four times followed
by a single press of the number 5 button to
complete the code input process.

In the event that the head unit code card is lost,
the user should seek advice from the dealer to
retrieve the code for their head unit. The user
will be required to produce some form of proof
that they are the rightful owner of the vehicle
e.g. the log book or a purchase receipt (if
bought second hand, for example) before the
dealer is authorised to issue the code. This
condition is imposed to prevent stolen head
units being used.

Child safety

CHILD SEATS

WARNINGS

Crash statistics show that children are
safest when properly restrained on the

rear seat.

Do not use a forward facing child seat

until the child using it 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.

Do not allow a baby or infant to be held

or carried on the lap. The force of a
crash can increase effective body weight by as
much as thirty times, making it impossible to
hold onto 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.

It is very important for all infants and children
under 12 years of age to be restrained in a
suitable child safety seat appropriate to their
age and size.

Child restraint check list

Every time a child travels in the vehicle observe
the following:-

• Use appropriate child restraints.

• Carefully follow the restraint system

manufacturers instructions.

• Adjust the harnesses for every child on
every trip.

• Ensure that all slack is removed from the
adult seatbelt.

• Always check the security of the child
restraint.

• Do not dress a child in bulky clothing, or
place any objects/padding between the
child and the restraint.

• Regularly check the fit and condition of
child restraints. If the fit is poor, or
wear/damage is visible replace the
restraint immediately.

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

Note: The information contained in the
following table may not be applicable to all
countries. If you are in any doubt regarding the
type and fitment of child seats seek advice from
your Land Rover Dealer/Authorised Repairer.

CAUTION

Information given within the table is

correct at the time of going to press.
However, availability of child restraints may
change. Please consult your Land Rover
Dealer/Authorised Repairer for the latest
recommendation.

Note: The legislation which governs how and
where children should be carried when
travelling in a vehicle, is subject to change. It is
the responsibility of the driver to comply with
all regulations in force.

BOOSTER CUSHIONS

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 three point belt properly, a booster
seat is recommended for maximum safety.
Follow the manufacturer's instructions for
fitting and use, then adjust the seat belt to suit.

CHILD SAFETY LOCKS

E85681

Child safety locks are fitted to the rear doors to
allow you to prevent accidental opening of the
doors when the vehicle is in motion.

If children are to be carried in the rear seat
positions, it is recommended that the rear door
interior handles are disabled.

Note: For convenience, the rear door interior
handles should be re-enabled when carrying
adult passengers in the rear seat positions.

To change the child lock settings:-

1. Open the door to access the child safety

lock.

2. Move the locking lever up to enable, or

down to disable the interior door handle,
as required.

1. Temperature control, rotate

counterclockwise or clockwise to increase
or decrease temperature accordingly.

2. Blower speed, move the lever towards the

right or left to increase or decrease blower
speed.

3. Recirculation control. Move the lever to the

left or right for recirculated or fresh air.

4. Air distribution. With the blower operating,

rotate to direct air flow as required.

5. Air conditioning control. Press to switch

on and off (switch indicator illuminates
when switched on).

Note: The blower will be switched on
automatically if air conditioning is selected
when the blower is set to 0.

5

Recirculation (3)

When selected, the air is recirculated inside the
vehicle. This helps to maintain a high or low
temperature, and is useful for preventing
fumes from entering the vehicle.

Note: Prolonged use at low temperatures may
cause the windows to mist.

Air distribution (4)

Rotate the control to set the air distribution to
the required points (face, face and feet, feet and
windscreen, windscreen only).

• For maximum heating, set the control to
feet and windscreen.

• For maximum ventilation, set the control to
face only.

• For maximum demisting/defrosting, set
the control to windscreen only.

71

Climate control

Air conditioning (5)

Air conditioning provides additional cooling to
the vehicle interior and also reduces the
moisture content of the air.

• In very humid conditions, slight screen
misting may be experienced when air
conditioning is turned on. This will clear in
a few seconds.

• If the interior temperature is higher than
the temperature outside the vehicle, it may
take a short time for the air conditioning to
be effective. It is best, in these
circumstances, to fully ventilate the vehicle
using the blower control, window and
sunroof, prior to switching on the air
conditioning.

• It is recommended that the air conditioning
is operated for a short while every week, to
keep the system in peak condition.

Note: Air conditioning only operates with the
engine running.

Note: The air conditioning system takes power
from the engine and consequently increases
fuel consumption.

Defrost/demist

For maximum defrosting or demisting of the
windows, use the following settings:

• Set the air distribution control to
windscreen only.

• Set the temperature control to maximum.

• Set the blower speed to 3.

• Set the air recirculation control to fresh air

for demisting and defrosting.

• Activate air conditioning.

Heated screens

CAUTIONS

Do not stick labels over the heating
elements on the rear screen.

Do not scrape or use abrasive materials
to clean the inside of the rear screen.

LOADING COMPACT DISCS

CAUTIONS

Do not force the disc into the slot.

Only use clean, undamaged discs. Do not

use discs with paper labels, Dual Discs,
DVDPlus discs or discs that are not circular or
are warped. The CD player may load and play
this type of disc; however, it is likely that the
disc will not eject and will block the CD
mechanism. Such damage to a CD player will
not be covered under warranty.

Note: Some music CD manufacturers are
using data encryption to copy-protect their
recordings and prevent the production of
counterfeit copies. These CDs differ from the
internationally agreed CD audio standard,
RedBook, a standard that serves as the
operating basis for all CD players and
changers. Copy-protected CDs may fail to play
in your CD changer or may be played subject to
various limitations, e.g. sound quality may be
impaired. If you do experience a problem, try
the CD in other players before contacting the
CD vendor.

Low quality audio playback

Original recordings employ industry standard
software to ensure high quality reproduction.
Home recordings and pirated copies of original
recordings are unlikely to be of the same
standard; therefore quality of audio playback is
likely to be adversely affected.

Original recordings display the ‘Compact Disc
Digital Audio’ logo. However, pirated copies
may also bear this logo. To ensure your
enjoyment of high quality sound reproduction,
always purchase original recordings.

Loading a CD

To insert a disc into the player, make sure that
the label side of the disc is facing upwards
when you present the disc to the slot. Ease the
disc into the slot a short distance, until the
mechanism takes over and draws the disc in
fully.

Error messages

When there is a problem with the CD player the
head unit may display one of four error codes:

• Error 00 - CD player cannot load the CD.

Possible causes:

- A damaged CD was inserted.

- A CD that does not conform to the
Redbook CD standard was inserted e.g.
wrong shape or size.

- A foreign object was inserted and has
damaged the CD mechanism.

• Error 01 - CD player mechanism fault.

Possible causes:

- The CD player is damaged and can no
longer function.

• Error 02 - CD player reading fault. The CD

player cannot read data from the CD.
Possible causes:

- Dirty or scratched CD.

- An incorrect format CD was inserted e.g.
If the CD player is not equipped to play
CDR MP3/WMA discs.

- CDR with paper label.

- Incorrectly compiled CD e.g. Corrupted
data, unfinished CD writing session,
incorrect "ripping" process used to make
the CD.

- A CDR that does not conform to the
Orangebook standard was inserted e.g. a
non-compliant CDR that does not bear a
recognised brand.

- The CD player has become too hot e.g.
due to excessive heater usage.

162

Compact disc player

• Error 03 - CD player electronic fault. The

CD player cannot read data from the CD.

- The CD player is damaged and can no
longer read the CD.

Redbook is the specification that
controls the CD standard - look for

the "Compact Disc Digital Audio"
logo. The head unit is designed to play
Redbook CDs and may not play CDs that do not
conform to this standard e.g. a disc that has
multiple content including video that may be
played on a Personal Computer PC or
Macintosh machine.

Orangebook is the specification
that controls the CDR standard -

look for the "Compact Disc
Recordable" logo. The MP3 and WMA
compatible head unit is designed to play
Orangebook CDRs and may not play
unbranded CDRs or CDRs with corrupted or
incorrect formats and data types present (see

Error 02 causes).

EJECTING COMPACT DISCS

To eject the disc, press and release the eject
button. A confirmation message is displayed.
After a short pause, the compact disc will
emerge and you can then remove it.

Note: If the disc is not removed from the slot
within ten seconds, it will be drawn back into
the player automatically.

Note: If you eject a CD during playback, the
audio unit will switch to tuner mode
automatically.

CD is hot when ejected

CDs will become hot when played for extended
periods - this is normal. This condition may
occur when the vehicle is excessively heated by
the vehicles heating system e.g. when the user
selects a maximum heating setting and drives
with the windows open to cool the cabin
temperature; heat will build up in the centre
console and the CD player which cannot be
dissipated adequately to ensure CD playback.
This condition may cause CD playback to falter
or stop altogether. The user should reduce
heating and allow the CD player to cool down.

Driving hints

Driving hints

RUNNING-IN

The engine, gearbox, tyres and brakes, need
time to bed-in. During the first 800 km (500
miles), it is essential that the vehicle is driven
with consideration for the running-in process.
During the running in period, the following
advice should be followed.

• Limit the engine speed to a maximum of
3000 rpm and the road speed to a
maximum of 80 km/h (50 mph).

• Do not use full accelerator pedal travel and
use the gears to avoid over-revving or
labouring the engine.

• Avoid rapid acceleration or heavy braking
wherever possible.

• Ensure that servicing is carried out on time
and follow any advice regarding use in
arduous conditions.

Note: The advice given for running in will aid
fuel economy and should be adopted as
general driving practice, even after the running
in period.

ECONOMICAL DRIVING

There are two main factors which influence fuel
economy, the way the vehicle is driven, and
maintenance.

Driving tips for economy

• Avoid unnecessary journeys, especially
short stop-start trips.

• Accelerate smoothly and gently from a
stand still.

• Use the gears to avoid labouring or
over-revving the engine.

• Allow time to brake gently and smoothly.

• Be aware of traffic and road conditions

ahead and take action in time to avoid hard
braking or acceleration.

• When stationary apply the parking brake,
and select neutral.

• Turn off the air conditioning when not
needed.

Maintenance and fuel economy

Regular servicing by a Land Rover
Dealer/Authorised Repairer, along with regular
checks by the driver, are essential for vehicle
longevity and fuel economy.

The condition of the engine (oils, filters,
settings etc.), tyre pressures and wheel
alignment, will all have a bearing on fuel
economy. For this reason, it is essential that
the vehicle is checked regularly by the driver
and serviced by an approved Land Rover
Dealer/Authorised Repairer at the correct
intervals.

Note: If you are in any doubt about the
maintenance requirements, intervals or checks
required, contact your Land Rover
Dealer/Authorised Repairer for advice.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FUEL QUALITY

WARNINGS

Petroleum gasses are highly

flammable, have a low flash point, and
are explosive, especially in confined spaces.
Avoid exposing the gasses to any potential
sources of ignition as the resulting fire and
explosion may cause serious injuries and/or
death.

Only use containers specifically

designed for carrying fuel, and always
remove them from the vehicle to fill them.
Failure to do so may result in spillage, and
cause a fire.

Switch off the engine when refuelling,

as it is both a source of extreme
temperatures, and electrical sparks. The
resulting fire and explosion may cause serious
injury and death.

Switch off any personal electronic

devices such as mobile phones, or
music players. They have the potential to
cause electrical sparks. The resulting fire and
explosion may cause serious injury and death.

Do not smoke, use a naked flame, or

cause sparks. The resulting fire and
explosion may cause serious injury and death.

Do not overfill the fuel tank. Overfilling

may cause spillage when the vehicle is
driven. Spillage may also occur if the fuel
expands in high ambient temperatures.

Note: Land Rover vehicles are capable of
running with up to a 5% blend of bio-diesel, in
accordance with European Standard EN590.

Sulphur content

The Sulphur content of diesel used in Land
Rover vehicles should not exceed 0.3%.

In some countries, diesel will contain higher
levers of Sulphur, which will require reduced
service intervals to reduce the effects on
engine components. If in doubt, contact a local
Land Rover Dealer/Authorised Repairer for
advice.

RUNNING OUT OF FUEL

Avoid running out of fuel. Doing so can
cause damage to the vehicle's engine,

fuel and emission control systems.

Note: If the vehicle does run out of fuel, a
minimum of 4 litres (0.8 gallons) will be
required to restart the engine. The vehicle will
need to be driven 1.6-5 km (1-3 miles) in order
to reset the engine management and
monitoring systems.

Note: If the vehicle does run out of fuel,
seeking qualified assistance is advisable.

animals are in the vehicle. Fuel vapour
contains harmful chemical compounds, some
of which may cause cancer.

Do not attempt to fill the tank to its

maximum capacity. If the vehicle is to
be parked on a slope, in direct sunlight, or high
ambient temperature, expansion of the fuel
could cause spillage.

CAUTIONS

Ensure that you check the fuel pump

information carefully, to ensure that you
are putting the correct fuel into the vehicle.
Filling a vehicle with the incorrect fuel can
cause serious engine and fuel system damage.

HEALTH AND SAFETY

WARNINGS

Your vehicle 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 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
manoeuvres. As with other vehicles of this
type, failure to operate the vehicle correctly
may result in loss of control or vehicle
roll-over.

The vehicle should not be parked over

long dry grass or other combustible
material, particularly during dry weather. As
the heat generated by the exhaust and
emission control systems may be sufficient to
start a fire.

DATA RECORDING

Service data recording

Service data recorders in your vehicle are
capable of collecting and storing diagnostic
information about your vehicle. This potentially
includes information about the performance or
status of various systems and modules in the
vehicle such as engine, throttle, steering or
brakes.

In order to properly diagnose and service your
vehicle, Land Rover and service and repair
facilities may access vehicle diagnostic
information through a direct connection to
your vehicle.

CAUTION

Always use an approved roof rack and
follow the manufacturer's fitting

instructions carefully.

A full list of approved roof rack systems and
accessories is available from your Land Rover
Dealer/Authorised Repairer.

Roof rack safety

Always observe the following precautions:

• The maximum roof load is 150 kg (330 lb).

When calculating the roof load, the weight
of the roof rack and any load carrier must
be included.

• The load ratings of Land Rover approved
roof racks differ. Please check the
maximum load rating for the particular
roof rack system being used and do not
exceed this rating.

• Ensure that maximum axle weights and the
Gross vehicle Weight are not exceeded
with the roof rack loaded.

• A loaded roof rack can reduce the stability
of the vehicle, particularly when cornering
and encountering cross winds.

• All loads should be evenly distributed and
secured within the periphery of the roof
rack.

• Always secure the load to the side rails, not
just to the cross rails.

• Only fit roof racks that have been designed
for your vehicle. If in doubt, consult your
dealer.

• Driving off-road with a loaded roof rack is
not recommended. If it is necessary to
stow luggage on the roof rack while driving
off-road, all loads must be removed before
traversing side slopes.

to be recorded.

Make sure your service provider signs and
stamps the book after each service and
inspection.

Owner maintenance

CAUTION

Any significant or sudden drop in fluid

levels, or uneven tyre wear, should be
reported to a qualified technician without
delay.

In addition to the routine maintenance, a
number of simple checks must be carried out
more frequently. Advice is given on the pages
that follow.

Daily checks

• Operation of lamps, horn, direction
indicators, wipers, washers and warning
indicators.

• Operation of seat belts and brakes.

• Look for fluid deposits underneath the

vehicle that might indicate a leak.

Weekly checks

• Engine oil level. See ENGINE OIL CHECK
(page 107).

• Engine coolant check. See ENGINE
COOLANT CHECK (page 108).

• Brake fluid level. See BRAKE FLUID CHECK
(page 111).

• Clutch fluid level. See CLUTCH FLUID
CHECK (page 112).

• Power steering fluid level. See POWER
STEERING FLUID CHECK (page 110).

• Screen washer fluid level. See WASHER
FLUID CHECK (page 113).

• Tyre pressures and condition.

• Operate air conditioning.

Note: The engine oil level should be checked
more frequently if the vehicle is driven for
prolonged periods at high speeds.

101

Maintenance

Driving in arduous conditions

When a vehicle is operated in extremely
arduous conditions, more frequent attention
must be paid to servicing requirements.

For example, if your vehicle experiences deep
wading conditions, even daily servicing could
be necessary to ensure the continued safe and
reliable operation of the vehicle.

Arduous driving conditions include:

• Repeated short distance driving up to
10 km (6 miles), stop-start driving or
idling for long periods.

• Driving in dusty and/or sandy conditions.

• Driving on rough and/or muddy roads

and/or wading.

• Driving in extremely hot conditions.

• Towing a trailer or driving in mountainous

conditions.

Contact a Land Rover Dealer/Authorised
Repairer for advice.

Emission control

Your vehicle is fitted with various items of
emission and evaporative control equipment,
designed to meet specific territorial
requirements. You should be aware that
unauthorised replacement, modification or
tampering with this equipment by an owner or
repair shop, may be unlawful and subject to
legal penalties.

In addition, engine settings must not be
tampered with. These have been established to
make sure your vehicle complies with stringent
exhaust emission regulations. Incorrect engine
settings may adversely affect exhaust
emissions, engine performance and fuel
consumption. They may also cause high
temperatures, which will result in damage to
the catalytic converter and the vehicle.

Road testing dynamometers (rolling
roads)

Because your vehicle is equipped with anti-lock
brakes and four wheel drive, it is essential that
any dynamometer testing is carried out only by
a qualified person, familiar with the
dynamometer testing and safety procedures
practised by Land Rover Dealers/Authorised
Repairers.

Safety in the garage

WARNINGS

If the vehicle has been driven recently,

do not touch exhaust and cooling
system components until the engine has
cooled.

Never leave the engine running in an

unventilated area - exhaust gases are
poisonous and extremely dangerous.

Do not work beneath the vehicle with

the wheel changing jack as the only
means of support.

Keep your hands and clothing away

from drive belts and pulleys.

Remove metal wrist bands and

jewellery, before working in the engine
compartment.

Do not touch electrical leads or

components while the engine is
running, or with the starter switch turned on.

Do not allow tools or metal parts of the

vehicle to make contact with the battery
leads or terminals.

102

Maintenance

Fuel system

WARNINGS

Under no circumstances should any

part of the fuel system be dismantled or
replaced by anyone other than a suitably
qualified vehicle technician. Failure to comply
with this instruction, may result in fuel spillage
with a consequent serious risk of fire.

Make sure sparks and naked lights are

kept away from the engine
compartment.

Wear protective clothing, including,

where practicable, gloves made from
an impervious material.

Poisonous fluids

Fluids used in motor vehicles are poisonous
and should not be consumed or brought into
contact with open wounds. These include;
battery acid, antifreeze, brake, clutch and
power steering fluid, petrol, diesel, engine oil
and windscreen washer additives.

For your own safety, always read and obey all
instructions printed on labels and containers.

Used engine oil

Prolonged contact with engine oil may cause
serious skin disorders, including dermatitis
and cancer of the skin. Always wash
thoroughly after contact.

It is illegal to pollute drains, water
courses or soil. Use authorised
waste disposal sites to dispose of

used oil and toxic chemicals.

ENGINE OIL CHECK

WARNING

Driving the vehicle with the engine oil

level above the upper mark, or below
the lower mark on the dipstick, can damage
the engine.

The oil consumption of an engine is influenced
by many factors. Under high loads an engine
will consume more oil than usual. Diesel
engines consume slightly more oil than petrol
engines.

Check the oil level weekly, when the engine is
cold and with the vehicle resting on level
ground.

Checking the oil level

CAUTION

Before driving the vehicle off-road,
ensure the oil level is at least half way

between the MIN and MAX mark on the
dipstick.

Note: If it is necessary to check the oil level
when the engine is hot, switch off the engine
and let the vehicle stand for five minutes to
allow the oil to drain back into the sump. Do not
start the engine.

2. Fully re-insert the dipstick and withdraw

again to check the oil level. Never allow the
oil level to fall below the MIN mark on the
dipstick.

As a general guide, if the level on the dipstick:

• Is nearer to the MAX mark than the MIN

mark, add no oil.

• Is nearer to the MIN mark than the MAX,

add half a litre (one pint) of oil.

• Is below the MIN mark, add one litre (two

pints) of oil and re-check the level after a
further five minutes.

E84815

1. Withdraw the dipstick and wipe the blade

clean with a lint free cloth.

107

Maintenance

Topping up the oil

CAUTIONS

Take care to avoid spilling engine oil onto
a hot engine - a fire may result. Wipe up

any spillage immediately.

Your vehicle warranty may be invalidated
if damage is caused by using oil that

does not meet the required specification.

Failure to use an oil that meets the

required specification could cause
excessive engine wear, a build up of sludge
and deposits, and increase pollution. It could
also lead to engine failure.

Overfilling with oil could result in severe

engine damage. Oil should be added in
small quantities and the level re-checked to
ensure that the engine is not overfilled.

1. Unscrew the oil filler cap.

2. Add oil to maintain the level between the
MIN and MAX marks on the dipstick. Clean

up any oil spilled during topping-up.

3. Check the oil level again after five minutes.

It is essential to use the correct specification
oil, and to ensure it is suitable for the climatic
conditions in which the vehicle is to be
operated.

Note: The approximate quantity of oil required
to raise the level from the MIN mark to the MAX
mark on the dipstick is 2 litres (3.52 pints).

Engine oil specification

ENGINE COOLANT CHECK

Checking the coolant level

CAUTION

Running the engine without coolant will
cause serious engine damage.

The coolant level in the expansion tank should
be checked at least weekly (more frequently in
high mileage or arduous operating conditions).
Always check the level when the system is
cold.

E84827

Make sure the coolant level is maintained to the
COLD LEVEL indicated on the side of the
expansion tank.

If the level has fallen appreciably, suspect
leakage or overheating and arrange for the
vehicle to be examined by a qualified
technician.

Model Specification

Diesel engine Use only 5W-30 oil

meeting Land Rover

specification

WSS-M2C913-B.

Topping up the coolant

WARNINGS

Never remove the filler cap when the

engine is hot - escaping steam or
scalding water could cause serious personal
injury.

108

Maintenance

WARNINGS

Avoid spilling antifreeze onto a hot
engine - a fire may result.

Unscrew the filler cap slowly, allowing
the pressure to escape before removing

completely.

CAUTION

When travelling in territories where the

water supply contains salt, always make
sure you carry a supply of fresh (rain or
distilled) water. Topping up with salt water will
cause serious engine damage.

Top-up so that the surface of the coolant is
level with the COLD LEVEL indicator on the side
of the expansion tank. Use only a 50% mix of
water and Texaco XLC antifreeze.

Note: In an emergency - and only if the
approved antifreeze is unavailable - top-up the
cooling system with clean water, but be aware
of the resultant reduction in frost protection.
Do not top-up or refill with conventional
antifreeze formulations. If in doubt consult a
qualified technician.

Make sure the cap is tightened fully after
top-up is completed.

Antifreeze

WARNINGS

Antifreeze is poisonous and can be fatal

if swallowed - keep containers sealed
and out of the reach of children. If accidental
consumption is suspected, seek medical
attention immediately.

If the fluid comes into contact with the

skin or eyes, rinse immediately with
plenty of water.

CAUTIONS

The use of non-approved antifreeze will

have an adverse effect on the engine
cooling system and therefore engine
durability.

Antifreeze will damage painted surfaces;

soak up any spillage with an absorbent
cloth immediately and wash the area with a
mixture of car shampoo and water.

Antifreeze contains important corrosion
inhibitors. The antifreeze content of the coolant
must be maintained at 50% ± 5% all year round
(not just in cold conditions). To make sure that
the anti-corrosion properties of the coolant are
retained, the antifreeze content should be
checked once a year and completely renewed
every ten years, regardless of distance
travelled. Failure to do so may cause corrosion
of the radiator and engine components.

The specific gravity of a 50% antifreeze
solution at 20°C (68°F) is 1.075 and protects
against frost down to -36°C (-33°F).

109

Maintenance

POWER STEERING FLUID CHECK

WARNINGS

Power steering fluid is highly toxic.

Keep containers sealed and out of reach
of children. If accidental consumption of fluid
is suspected, seek medical attention
immediately.

If the fluid comes into contact with the

skin or eyes, rinse immediately with
plenty of water.

Do not spill power steering fluid onto a

hot engine - a fire may result.

E84846

Checking the fluid level

CAUTIONS

The engine must not be started if the fluid

has dropped below the lower level mark.
Severe damage to the steering pump could
result.

Seek qualified assistance immediately if

there is a noticeable drop in the fluid
level. Severe damage to the steering pump
could result.

If fluid loss is slow, the reservoir may be

topped-up to the upper level mark to
enable the vehicle to be driven to a repair
facility for examination. However, it is
recommended that you seek qualified
assistance before driving the vehicle.

Check and top-up the fluid with the vehicle on
level ground, engine switched off, and the
system cold. Ensure that the steering wheel is
not turned after stopping the engine.

Clean the filler cap before removing to prevent
dirt from entering the reservoir.

Remove the filler cap, and using a lint-free
cloth, wipe the dipstick clean. Refit the cap fully
and remove again to check the fluid level. The
fluid should be between the upper mark and the
bottom end of the dipstick (arrowed in
illustration).

Topping up the fluid

CAUTIONS

Power steering fluid will damage painted

surfaces. Soak up any spillage with an
absorbent cloth immediately and wash the
area with a mixture of car shampoo and water.

Do not fill the reservoir above the upper

mark on the dipstick.

1. Remove the filler cap.

2. Top up with Texaco Cold Climate 33270,

making sure no dirt enters the reservoir.

3. Replace the filler cap.

Note: The colour of the specified power
steering fluid may differ from that used to fill
the system during manufacture. This is not
cause for concern.

Maintenance

BRAKE FLUID CHECK

WARNINGS

Brake fluid is highly toxic - keep

containers sealed and out of the reach
of children. If accidental consumption of fluid
is suspected, seek medical attention
immediately.

If the fluid comes into contact with the

skin or eyes, rinse immediately with
plenty of water.

Take care not to spill the fluid onto a hot

engine - a fire may result.

Do not drive the vehicle with the fluid

level below the MIN mark.

The fluid level may fall slightly during normal
use as a result of brake pad wear but should
not be allowed to fall below the MIN mark.

Any substantial drop in fluid indicates a leak in
the system, in which case the vehicle must not
be driven and you should seek qualified
assistance.

Checking the fluid level

WARNING

Seek qualified assistance immediately if

brake pedal travel is unusually long or if
there is any significant loss of brake fluid.
Driving under such conditions could result in
extended stopping distances or complete
brake failure.

With the vehicle on level ground, check the
fluid level at least every week (more frequently
in high mileage or arduous operating
conditions).

E84847

Check the level visually through the side of the
transparent reservoir without removing the
filler cap.

The brake fluid level should be between the
MIN and the MAX marks.

Do not allow the fluid level to fall below the MIN
mark.

Topping up the fluid

CAUTIONS

Brake fluid will damage painted surfaces.

Soak up any spillage with an absorbent
cloth immediately and wash the area with a
mixture of car shampoo and water.

Only use new fluid from an airtight

container (fluid from opened containers
or fluid previously bled from the system will
have absorbed moisture, which will adversely
affect performance, and must not be used).

1. Clean the filler cap before removing to

prevent dirt from entering the reservoir.

2. Unscrew the cap and remove, making sure

the electrical leads do not become taut.

111

Maintenance

3. Top-up the reservoir to the MAX mark

using Shell ESL Donax EB brake fluid. If

brake fluid with a minimum boiling point of
260°C and complying with FMVSS 116
DOT4 may be used.

4. Replace the cap, making sure the electrical

leads do not become trapped.

Brake fluid must be completely renewed every
38 600 km (24 000 miles) or 24 months,
whichever is sooner.

CLUTCH FLUID CHECK

WARNINGS

Clutch fluid is highly toxic - keep

containers sealed and out of the reach
of children. If accidental consumption of fluid
is suspected, seek medical attention
immediately.

If the fluid comes into contact with the

skin or eyes, rinse immediately with
plenty of water.

Take care not to spill the fluid onto a hot

engine - a fire may result.

If significant topping-up is required, a leak is
indicated, seek qualified assistance.

Checking the fluid level

With the vehicle on level ground, check the
fluid level at least every week (more frequently
in high mileage or arduous operating
conditions).

E84848

Wipe the filler cap before removing to prevent
dirt from entering the reservoir. Check the fluid
level, the level should be approximately 10 mm
(0.4 inches) below the top of the reservoir.

Topping up the fluid

CAUTIONS

Clutch fluid will damage painted

surfaces. Soak up any spillage with an
absorbent cloth immediately and wash the
area with a mixture of car shampoo and water.

Only use new fluid from an airtight

container (fluid from opened containers
or fluid previously bled from the system will
have absorbed moisture, which will adversely
affect performance, and must not be used).

1. Clean the filler cap before removing to

prevent dirt from entering the reservoir.

2. Unscrew the cap and remove.

3. Top-up the reservoir to approximately 10

Maintenance

WASHER FLUID CHECK

WARNINGS

Some screen washer products are

inflammable, particularly if high or
undiluted concentrations are exposed to
sparking. Do not allow screen washer fluid to
come into contact with naked flames or
sources of ignition.

If the vehicle is operated in

temperatures below 4°C (40°F), use a
washer fluid with frost protection. In cold
weather, failure to use a washer fluid with frost
protection, could result in impaired vision and
increase the risk of a vehicle crash.

CAUTIONS

Do not use an antifreeze or vinegar and

water solution in the washer reservoir ­antifreeze will damage painted surfaces, while
vinegar can damage the windscreen washer
pump.

Body panels may suffer discolouration as

a result of screen washer fluid spillage.

saves lives. They should be worn by all
occupants whenever the vehicle is in use.

A warning indicator on the
instrument pack will illuminate to
alert you that the driver's seat belt is

unbuckled.

Child seats

It is important to remember that the child's
weight, rather than age, determines the type of
seat that is required. See CHILD SEATS
