Owner's Handbook
This handbook covers all derivatives in the Freelander range available at the date of publication
and, together with the other publications in the 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 different
aspect of the vehicle. These are listed on the following page and you will find it worthwhile to
take a little time to read each one, and get to know your Freelander 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.
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.
Land Rover operates a policy of constant product improvement and therefore reserves the right to change specifications
without notice at any time. Whilst 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 the retailer, except in
respect of personal injury caused by the negligence of the manufacturer or the retailer.

Introduction
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.
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
cancer, and birth defects or other
reproductive harm.
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.
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!
WARNING
Battery posts, terminals and related
accessories contain lead and lead
compounds. Wash hands after handling.
WARNINGS 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.
19
Introduction
BEFORE YOU DRIVE
Your Freelander 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 Freelander 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.
SYMBOLS USED
The following symbols used within the
handbook call your attention to specific types of
information.
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 that routine
services have been carried out.
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
*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.

Introduction
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. If a breakdown occurs on a
freeway, pull well over to the inside of
the 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 the
traffic, to a safe area away from the
vehicle as a precaution in case your
Freelander is accidentally struck by
another vehicle.
23
Introduction
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
600 miles (1000 km), it is essential to drive with
consideration for the breaking-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 labour in any gear.
• AVOID fast acceleration and heavy braking
except in emergencies.
After the breaking-in distance has been
completed, engine speeds may be gradually
increased.

KEYS AND HANDSETS
H3519A
You have been supplied with a pair of identical
keys and two remote control handsets.
Keep the spare key in a safe place - NOT IN THE
VEHICLE!
The keys supplied with your vehicle are
programmed to the vehicle's security system they CANNOT be reprogrammed and the engine
cannot be started without a valid programmed
key. If a key is lost or broken, a replacement can
be ordered only from a Land Rover retailer.
NOTE: Land Rover retailers do not stock spare
keys, time has to be allowed for replacements
to be programmed to your security system and
then delivered to the retailer.
If you lose a key, contact your Land Rover
retailer; a key reported lost will be deactivated.
If the key is later recovered, your Land Rover
retailer can have it reactivated.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The handset 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. This applies to both alarm
receivers and transmitters.
Any changes or modifications to the
handset not expressly approved by the
manufacturer or Land Rover North
America, could void the user’s authority to
operate the equipment.
ALARM SYSTEM
Your vehicle is fitted with a sophisticated
electronic anti-theft alarm and engine
immobilisation system. In order to ensure
maximum security and minimum
inconvenience, you are strongly advised to gain
a full understanding of the alarm system by
thoroughly reading this section of the
handbook.
27
Locks & Alarm
LOCKING THE VEHICLE AND ARMING
THE ALARM
Before locking the vehicle and arming the
alarm, ensure that all doors (including taildoor),
windows, sunroof and hood apertures are
securely closed.
There are three methods for securing your
vehicle:
• ‘Superlocking’ using the handset -
(recommended high security method).
• ‘Superlocking’ using the key.
• Locking using the key.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
• FOR MAXIMUM SECURITY ALWAYS
SUPERLOCK THE VEHICLE USING THE
REMOTE HANDSET
Using the remote handset
Locking
With the remote handset:
Press the lock (padlock symbol) button once.
Each time the vehicle is locked using the
handset, a coded signal is transmitted to a
receiver inside the vehicle, which activates the
following security features:
• the central door locking system (all the door
locks are activated).
• the perimetric alarm (protects the door,
taildoor, and hood apertures).
Pressing the lock (padlock symbol) a second
time within one second of the first action
activates:
• ‘Superlocking’ - the door locks cannot be
operated from inside the vehicle.
With both levels of locking, if the doors lock
correctly, the direction indicator lights flash
three times to confirm that the vehicle is secure
and the anti-theft alarm indicator light (in the
instrument panel) will start to flash rapidly.
Once armed, the alarm will sound if any door is
opened.
With the key:
Insert the key and turn the door lock clockwise.
Turning the key ONCE activates the following:
• all doors locked (not superlocked)
• perimetric alarm activated (protects the
doors, hood and taildoor)
H3297
While it is not necessary to point the handset at
the vehicle, the handset must be within range of
the vehicle when a button is pressed. Note that
the operating range may vary depending upon
handset battery condition and may sometimes
be limited by physical and geographical factors
beyond your control. From a security point of
view, it may not be wise to unlock unless you
are within a few feet of the vehicle.
Turning the key TWICE within 1 second
activates, in addition to the above:
• Superlocking
If the doors lock correctly, the direction
indicators flash three times to confirm that the
vehicle is secure and the anti-theft alarm
indicator light (in the instrument panel) will
start to flash rapidly.
NOTE: The engine will automatically be
immobilised after the starter switch has been
turned off.
28
Locks & Alarm
Superlocking
Provided all the doors are fully closed, the
Superlocking feature is activated automatically
whenever the vehicle is locked by pressing the
padlock symbol on the remote handset twice
within one second. Superlocking immobilises
the interior door handles, thereby preventing an
intruder from gaining entry by smashing a
window and reaching inside the vehicle to
operate the door handles.
WARNING
For safety, NEVER use Superlocking if
passengers are to remain inside the vehicle in an emergency they would not be able to
escape.
Mislock
If one of the doors, taildoor or hood is not
properly closed when the alarm is armed, a
mislock occurs (the horn will sound a warning).
The alarm will still be armed and the engine
immobilised, but the open aperture will not be
protected. If the appropriate aperture is then
closed, the alarm will fully arm without the need
to press the lock button again unless the
driver's door is open, in which case the alarm
will be fully armed by pressing the lock button
again.
If the taildoor glass is left open when the alarm
is armed, the horn will sound as a reminder, but
the vehicle will be locked and alarmed as
normal. The taildoor glass can be closed from
outside the vehicle using the starter key in the
taildoor (see ‘Raising and lowering’, page 72).
Anti-theft alarm indicator light
H3298
After locking, the RED indicator light on the
instrument panel flashes rapidly while the alarm
is arming itself.
After approximately 10 seconds, the indicator
light adjusts to a slower frequency, and
continues to flash as an anti-theft deterrent
until the alarm is disarmed.
Unlocking
With the remote handset:
If your vehicle is configured with the Single
Point Entry security feature, and was locked
with the handset, the handset unlocks the
vehicle in two stages:
• Press the unlock (Land Rover) button once
to disarm the alarm and unlock the driver's
door only (see ‘Single point entry’,
page 30).
• Press the unlock button twice to disarm the
alarm and unlock ALL the doors.
If your vehicle is not configured with Single
Point Entry, all the doors will unlock at the first
press.
In either case, the direction indicators flash
once and the interior lights illuminate.
With the key:
Turn the key towards the front of the vehicle.
The alarm will be fully disarmed. To remobilise
the engine, the key must be inserted into the
starter switch.
29
Locks & Alarm
If the alarm sounds
If the alarm is triggered, it will sound for
approximately 30 seconds before switching
itself off and can be triggered up to ten times
in total before needing to be reset.
To silence the alarm, press either handset
button, or operate the door locks using the key
in the driver's door.
Single point entry
This is a personal security feature, which
enables the driver's door only to be unlocked,
leaving the other doors in a locked state. It can
be operated by the remote handset as follows:
Press the unlock button once to unlock the
driver's door, press a second time to unlock the
remaining doors and taildoor.
Single point entry can be configured by a
Land Rover retailer.
Interior locking switch
H3334
This is a personal security feature which allows
the driver to lock (or unlock) all the doors from
inside the vehicle (while driving or with the
vehicle stationary). Press the lower part of the
switch to lock (the alarm will not be armed),
and the upper part to unlock.
NOTE: If interior locking has been activated,
pull the interior door handle once to unlock, and
twice to open the door.
Door handles and door sill locking buttons
From inside the vehicle, each door can be
individually locked by depressing the
appropriate door sill button. However, doors
cannot be unlocked by raising the sill button.
Use the door handles to unlock, as follows:
• First operation of the door handle unlocks
the door.
• Second operation of the door handle opens
the door.
NOTE: The door handles will not open the doors
if the vehicle has been superlocked (see
‘Superlocking’, page 29)
