Introduction
Congratulations on acquiring your new Land Rover Discovery. Please take the time to become
acquainted with your vehicle by reading this handbook, which, together with the other books in your
literature pack, provides information you will need to derive maximum pleasure from owning and
driving your new vehicle.
For your convenience, the handbook is divided into sections, each dealing with a particular aspect of
driving or caring for the vehicle. These are listed on the contents page and you will find it worthwhile
to take a little time to read each one, and get to know your Discovery as soon as you possibly can.
The more you understand before you drive, the greater the satisfaction once you are seated behind
the steering wheel.
*An asterisk appearing within the text, identifies features or items of equipment that are either
optional, or are only fitted to some vehicles in the model range.
IMPORTANT
The specification of each vehicle will vary according to territorial requirements and also from model
to model within the vehicle range. Some of the information published in this handbook, therefore,
may not apply to your particular vehicle.

FUEL FILLER
The fuel filler is located in the rear right-hand
quarter panel. With the starter switch turned to
position ‘0’ or ‘I’, press the binnacle switch to
release the filler flap.
The filler cap is designed to allow the fuel tank
to vent during the first half turn. Carefully
loosen the cap one half turn until resistance is
felt, and allow fuel tank pressure to be released.
Once the pressure is released (hissing has
stopped), it is safe to fully remove the filler cap.
When replacing, tighten the cap clockwise until
you hear the fuel cap ratchet click at least three
times.

REPORTING SAFETY DEFECTS
If you believe that your vehicle has a defect
which could cause a crash, or could cause
injury or death, you should immediately inform
the National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration (NHTSA) in addition to notifying
Land Rover North America Inc.
If NHTSA receives similar complaints, it may
open an investigation and if it finds that a safety
defect exists in a group of vehicles, it may order
a recall and remedy campaign.
However, NHTSA cannot become involved in
individual problems between you, your retailer
or Land Rover North America.
Auto safety hotline
To contact NHTSA, you may either call the Auto
Safety HOTLINE toll free at 1-800-424-9393 (or
202-366-0123 in the Washington, D.C. area) or
write to: NHTSA, U.S. Department of
Transportation, Washington, DC 20590. You
can also obtain other information about motor
vehicle safety from the HOTLINE.
CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNING
WARNING
Engine exhaust, some of its constituents and
certain vehicle components contain or emit
chemicals known to the State of California to
cause cancer and birth defects or other
reproductive harm. In addition, certain fluids
contained in vehicles and certain products of
component wear contain or emit chemicals
known to the State of California to cause

Before You Drive
BEFORE YOU DRIVE WARNINGS IN THIS HANDBOOK
Your Discovery 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 maneuvers. As with other
vehicles of this type, failure to operate
the Discovery correctly may result in loss
of control or vehicle rollover. For
important safety information, be sure to
read the ‘On-Road’ and ‘Off-Road’ driving
guidelines given later in this handbook.
WARNING
Safety warnings are included in this
handbook. These indicate a procedure which
must be followed precisely in order to avoid
the possibility of personal injury or serious
damage to the vehicle.
SYMBOLS USED
The following symbols used within the
handbook call your attention to specific types of
information.
This recycling symbol identifies items
that must be disposed of safely in order to
prevent unnecessary damage to the
environment.
This symbol identifies features that can be
adjusted or disabled/enabled by a Land
Rover retailer

Before You Drive
PASSPORT TO SERVICE
The Passport to Service book included in your
literature pack contains important vehicle
identification information, details of your
entitlement under the terms of the Land Rover
warranty, as well as useful consumer advice.
Most important of all, however, is the section
on maintenance. This outlines the servicing
requirements for your vehicle and also includes
the service record slips, which the retailer
should sign and stamp to certify the routine
services have been carried out.
WARNING LABELS ATTACHED TO THE
VEHICLE
Warning labels attached to your
vehicle bearing this symbol mean: DO
NOT touch or adjust components until
you have read the relevant
instructions in the handbook.
Warning labels showing this symbol
indicate that the ignition system
utilizes very high voltages. DO NOT
touch any ignition components while
the starter switch is turned on!
NOTE: Always read warning information labels.
GEARBOX SELECTOR LEVER LABELS

ANTI-THEFT PRECAUTIONS
While it may be difficult to deter the
‘professional’ car thief, the majority of thefts are
carried out by unskilled opportunists.
Therefore, take vehicle security very seriously
and ALWAYS adopt this simple ‘four point’ drill
whenever you leave your vehicle - even for just
a few minutes:
1. Fully close all the windows (and the
sunroof).
2. Remove your valuable belongings (or hide
them out of sight).
3. Remove the starter key.
4. Superlock the vehicle using the remote
handset.
Thieves are attracted by ‘vulnerable’ vehicles.
Even if you have followed the ‘four point’ drill,
there is still much you can do to make your
vehicle a less inviting target.
BE SAFE - NOT SORRY!
• Park where your vehicle can be easily seen
by householders and passers-by.
• At night, park in well lit areas and avoid
deserted or dimly-lit side streets.
• NEVER leave the keys in the vehicle.
• Do not keep important documents (or spare
keys) in the vehicle - these are a real bonus
for the thief.
IN AN EMERGENCY
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Remember the breakdown safety code
If a breakdown occurs while travelling:
• Wherever possible, consistent with
road safety and traffic conditions, the
vehicle should be moved off the main
thoroughfare, preferably onto the
shoulder as far as possible. If a
breakdown occurs on a motorway, pull
well over to the inside of the hard
shoulder.
• Switch on hazard lights.
• If possible, position a warning triangle
or a flashing amber light at an
appropriate distance from the vehicle to
warn other traffic of the breakdown,
(note the legal requirements of some
areas).
• Consider evacuating passengers
through the doors facing away from
traffic, to a safe area away from the
vehicle as a precaution in case your
Discovery is accidentally struck by
another vehicle.

Before You Drive
BREAKING-IN
Proper breaking-in will have a direct bearing on
the reliability and smooth running of your
vehicle throughout its life.
In particular, the engine, gearbox, brakes and
tires need time to ‘bed-in’ and adjust to the
demands of everyday motoring. During the first
500 miles (800 km), it is essential to drive with
consideration for the running-in process and
heed the following advice:
• LIMIT maximum road speed to 70 mph (110
km/h) or 3,000 rev/min. Initially, drive the
vehicle on a light throttle and only increase
engine speeds gradually once the
breaking-in distance has been completed.
• DO NOT operate at full throttle or allow the
engine to labor in any gear.
• AVOID fast acceleration and heavy braking
except in emergencies.
