Rover LR3 2006 Owner Manual

OWNER’S HANDBOOK

Publication Part No. LRL 18 02 53 602

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 for Quick Reference and is 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 vehicle. 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, 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 new owner with the 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 specification. Therefore some information contained in this handbook may not apply to your vehicle. Furthermore, due to printing cycles it may include descriptions of options before they are available.

We operate a policy of constant product improvement and therefore reserve 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 Dealer, except in respect of personal injury caused by the negligence of the manufacturer or the Dealer.

VEHICLE CHARACTERISTICS

Caution: The overall height of your vehicle exceeds that of ordinary passenger cars. See DIMENSIONS, 266. Always be aware of the height of your vehicle and check the available headroom before driving through low entrances. This is particularly important if the vehicle is fitted with a roof rack or if a sunroof is open.

H6621N

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.

General Information

WARNING:

Utility vehicles have a significantly higher roll-over rate than other types of vehicles. Since these vehicles are designed to be operated off-road, these vehicles have a higher ground clearance and hence a higher center of gravity. Such a feature has been associated with an increased risk of vehicle roll-over. An advantage associated with higher ground clearance vehicles is a better view of the road, allowing the driver to anticipate problems. Another factor shown to significantly increase roll-over risk is unauthorized vehicle modifications such as fitting incorrect specification tires (see WHEELS AND TIRES, 264), oversize tires, body lifting, incorrect springs/dampers, incorrect vehicle loading/trailer towing. However, on-road crash data also indicates that driver behaviour is a greater factor than a high center of gravity in determining a vehicle's overall roll-over rate. The single most effective driver behaviour that can reduce the risk of injury or death in all crashes including roll-over, is to ALWAYS WEAR YOUR SEAT BELT and to properly restrain all child passengers in the rear seat in an appropriate child safety seat. In a rollover crash, an unbelted person is significantly more likely to die than a person wearing a seat belt.

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 rollover.

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

H5376G

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

H5378G

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 immobilised.

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

The indicator gives a one-second flash.

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.

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

Locks and Alarms

To silence the alarm, press the lock or unlock button on the remote control or insert the key into the ignition 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.

Seats

FRONT SEATS

Seats

WARNING:

DO NOT adjust the driver's seat while the vehicle is in motion. To do so may cause loss of loss of control and personal injury.

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 not reclined more than 30 degrees (A).

• Do not move the drivers seat too close to the steering wheel. Ideally a minimum distance (B) of at least 254 mm (10 in) between the center of the breastbone and the cover of the steering wheel air bag 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 WHEEL ADJUSTMENT, 67.

H6615N

WARNING:

DO NOT travel with the seat backs reclined steeply rearwards. Optimum benefit is obtained from the seat belt with the seat back angle set to no more than 30 degrees from the upright (vertical).

Failure to maintain the correct seat back angle will reduce the effectiveness of the seat belts and increase the risk of serious injury or death in a crash.

WARNING:

DO NOT adjust any part of a seat while the vehicle is in motion.Vehicle movement may cause the seat to suddenly shift, potentially causing injury.

Seat Belts

SEAT BELTS

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 seatbelts include a buckle sensor to detect when the buckle is latched.

Seat belt warning indicator

Driver Beltminder commences when the ignition switch is turned to position ll and the driver belt is

unbuckled.

The seat belt reminder feature also applies to the passenger seat and will be activated if the seat is occupied and the occupant is unbuckled.

Note: Objects placed on the passenger seat may activate the seat belt warning system.

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. 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 rollovers.

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 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 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.

Seat Belts

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 of luggage that are to be carried on the seats. In the event of an accident, insecure items become missiles capable of causing serious injury.

Use the seat belt automatic locking mechanism to restrain pets in harnesses or pet carriers when utilising the loadspace.

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 30o from the upright.

Seat Belts

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.

Fastening the seat belts

H5431G

Insert the metal tongue plate into the buckle nearest the wearer - a click indicates that the belt is securely locked.

In order to prevent damage to the seat belt buckles on the rear seats of 7-seat vehicles when the seats are folded flat, the buckles are spring-loaded to stow within the seat cushion.

In order to fasten the belt, pull the buckle up from the seat before inserting the tongue plate.

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.

Seat Belts

Upper anchorage adjustment

H5432G

Press down (solid arrow) to release the catch, then lift or push down to adjust the height of the anchorage.

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

Where possible, 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.

SEAT BELT USE DURING PREGNANCY

H5157

WARNING:

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

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.

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.

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, 224.

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 the tongue plate 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.

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.

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.

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.

Child Restraints

CHILD SEATS

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 (2nd row) seating positions, than they are in the front.

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.

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.

Seat belt locking mechanism

The second and third row 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.

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, 58.

Child Restraints

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 held or 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.

LATCH CHILD RESTRAINTS (Second-row seats)

Both second-row outer 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.

H5433G

5-seat vehicles

Child Restraints

H5895G

7-seat vehicles

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.

Fitting LATCH child restraints

LATCH child restraints should only be fitted in the two outer seating positions of the second-row 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.

Tether anchorages

Upper tether anchorage is provided at each seating position equipped to accept LATCH child restraints.

Child Restraints

H5435G

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.

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).

Attaching tether straps

1. Install the child restraint securely in one of

the second or third 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.

Child Restraints

Third-row child seat tether anchorages

A tether anchorage is provided at each seating position.

FRONT OF VEHICLE

H6413N

WARNING:

NEVER use the luggage anchor points to secure ANY child seat. They are not designed to accept the loading in such use, resulting in personal injury.

CHILD RESTRAINT CHECK LISTS

Follow the check list every time a child travels in the vehicle:

• Carefully follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer of the restraint system.

• Always use the appropriate child restraints and adjust harnesses for every child, every trip.

• Always attach the top tether when installing the LATCH seat.

• Always give the LATCH seat a final pull to ensure that the lower anchors are secure.

• Avoid dressing a child in bulky clothing and do not place any objects between the child and the restraint system.

• Regularly check the fit of a child seat and replace seats or harnesses that show signs of wear.

• Ensure that you have removed all slack from the adult seat belt.

• Encourage a child not to play with the buckle or harness.

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

Airbag SRS

H6614N

AIRBAG SRS

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

WARNING:

Always remember; the SRS/airbags are a supplemental restraint system providing ADDITIONAL protection in certain types of collision only - they DO 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.

The airbag SRS will activate only the airbags that are required for a given situation.

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.

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

Airbag SRS

Note: Inflation and deflation of the seat mounted side airbags and front airbags takes place very quickly and will not protect against the effects of secondary impacts that may occur. Curtain airbags deflate at a slower rate and therefore offer additional protection in the event of a secondary impact or rollover.

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.

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, 91. 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 ignition switch is turned to position ll.

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

• The warning indicator illuminates after the engine is started, or while the vehicle is being driven.

When the ignition 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.

Airbag warning labels

front

H6634N

Airbag warning information is printed on the driver’s and front passenger’s sun visor.

Airbag SRS

Obstruction of air bags

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.

Do not use 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.

WARNING:

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

Even with SRS/airbag 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.

ABC

H5440L

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 air bag module.

NEVER attach accessory items to an airbag module cover.

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.

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.

Airbag SRS

Seating positions

WARNING:

To minimise the risk of accidental injury from inflating airbags, seat belts should be correctly worn at all times. In addition, both driver and front seat passenger should adjust their seat to provide the maximum practical distance from the front airbags. Front seat and outer rear seat occupants should also ensure that a gap is maintained between the upper torso and head, and the side of the vehicle, to enable unobstructed inflation of the seat mounted side airbag for the front seat occupants and curtain airbags for both front and rear passengers.

In order to provide optimum protection in the event of a severe impact, it is necessary for the airbags to deploy with considerable speed.

An inflating airbag can cause facial abrasions and other injuries if the occupant is too close to the airbag at the time of its deployment.

Occupant detection

The front passenger seat is fitted with an occupancy sensor 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 downward 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/ object

Heavy occupant/ object

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

†

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, then contact your Land Rover Dealer immediately.

Passenger airbag status

Deactivated No

Deactivated Yes

Activated No

Status indicator active

†

WARNING:

Do not use a child restraint on a seat protected by an operational air bag 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.

WARNING:

An inflating airbag can cause facial abrasions and other injuries. Minimise the risk of injury by ensuring that front seat occupants are wearing their seat belts and are seated correctly, with the seat as far back as is practical.

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

DO NOT lean out of the window.

Curtain airbags

H5444L

Note: 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.

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

In the event of a severe side collision, the airbag pushes out from behind the roof lining and pillar finisher as it inflates.

Airbag SRS

SERVICE INFORMATION

WARNING:

The components that make up the airbag SRS are sensitive to electrical or physical interference, either of which could easily damage the system and cause inadvertent operation or a malfunction of the airbag.

For your safety it is recommended that you seek the assistance of a Land Rover Dealer to carry out any of the following:

• Removal, repair, replacement or modification of any wiring or component in the vicinity of any of the SRS components, including the steering wheel, steering column, door trim, roof lining, instrument pack and instrument panel.

• Installation of electronic equipment such as a mobile phone, two-way radio or in-car entertainment system.

• Modification to the front or side of the vehicle, including the bumper and chassis.

• Attachment of accessories to the front or side of the vehicle.

In addition, ALWAYS contact your Land Rover Dealer if:

• An airbag inflates.

• The front or side of the vehicle is damaged,

even if the airbag has not inflated.

• Any part of an airbag module cover shows signs of cracking or damage.

• Any trim containing airbags - front seat back, headlining or pillar trims - becomes damaged.

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 SETTINGS,

74). The degree of dipping can be programmed using the following sequence:

1. Insert the ignition 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, 43.

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. Mirror Dip Stored will be displayed on the

SERVICE INTERVAL INDICATOR

H5478G H5480G

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 ignition 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.

The LOW range indicator (in the top right corner of the display) flashes whilst the transfer gearbox changes ranges and then illuminates constantly when LOW range has engaged. A range change will also be confirmed in the main message center.

Warning Indicators

INDICATOR GROUPING

H6587N

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/LED display.

• Speedometer.

BACKGROUND

Direction 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 ignition 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.

Warning Indicators

TACHOMETER DISPLAY

Lamps and Indicators

HAZARD WARNING LAMPS

H5493G

Press the switch to operate the hazard warning lamps. All of the direction/turn indicator lamps (including the instrument pack warning indicators and those fitted to a trailer) will flash together.

Use ONLY in an emergency to warn other road users when your stationary vehicle is causing an obstruction, or is in a hazardous situation. Remember to switch off before moving away.

DIRECTION/TURN INDICATORS

H5494G

With the ignition switch in position II, the left-hand steering column lever will operate the direction/turn indicators (a GREEN warning indicator on the instrument pack will flash in time with the direction/turn indicators).

Hold the lever partially up or down against spring pressure to indicate a lane change.

Bulb failure of any front or rear direction/turn indicator lamp (not side repeaters) will cause the instrument pack warning indicator to flash rapidly.

Wipers and Washers

WINDSHIELD WIPERS

The wipers and washers will only operate when the ignition switch is turned to position I or II.

• DO NOT operate the wipers on a dry windshield.

• In freezing or very hot conditions, ensure that the blades are not stuck to the glass.

• In winter, remove any snow or ice from around the wiper arms and blades, including the wiped area of the windshield and the heater air intakes.

Note: If the wiper blades have stuck to the glass, an electronic cut-out may temporarily prevent the wipers from operating. If this is the case, switch the wipers off and turn the ignition switch off. Clear the obstruction and try again.

H5495G

Rain sensor variable delay or intermittent variable delay

Push the lever up to position 1.

Normal speed wipe

Push the lever up to position 2.

Fast speed wipe

Push the lever up to position 3.

Single wipe

Pull the lever down to position 4 and release.

Note: With the lever held down, the wipers will operate at fast speed until the lever is released.

Intermittent variable delay

H5496G

With the lever in position 1, rotate the delay switch clockwise to increase, and anticlockwise to decrease, the frequency of the intermittent wipe.

Speed-dependent mode

With the lever in position 1, speed-dependent mode is operable.

If the vehicle’s speed drops below 8 km/h (5 mph) with the wipers operating, the wiper frequency automatically reduces. The wipers will switch to the next lowest operating speed. When the vehicle’s speed increases to over 8 km/h (5 mph), the original wiper speed setting is restored automatically.

This setting can be configured by a Land Rover Dealer.

Speed-dependent intermittent mode

The frequency of wiper operation in intermittent mode, is also adjusted automatically according to road speed, on those vehicles not equipped with a rain sensor.

The intermittent period can be adjusted for each of the dependent modes by rotating the delay switch either clockwise or anticlockwise.

This setting can be configured by a Land Rover Dealer.
