Important

The information contained in this handbook covers all vehicle derivatives and optional equipment. Some of the options may not be fitted to your vehicle unless they formed part of the original vehicle specification. Therefore some parts of this handbook may not apply to your vehicle. Furthermore, due to printing cycles, it may include descriptions of options before they become generally available.

The information contained in this publication was correct when it went to print. Vehicle design changes may have been made after this handbook was printed. When this occurs a handbook supplement is added to the literature pack. Subsequent updates can be viewed on the Land Rover Internet site at; www.ownerinfo.landrover.com.

In the interest of development, the right is reserved to change specifications, design or equipment at any time without notice and without incurring any obligations. This publication, or part thereof, may not be reproduced nor translated without our approval. Errors and omissions excepted.

Seat belts and child restraints

The use of front and rear seat belts is mandatory in most countries. Using seat belts saves lives. They should be worn by all occupants whenever the vehicle is in use.

A warning light on the instrument pack will illuminate to alert you that

the driver's and/or front passenger's seat belt is unbuckled. Dependent upon specification this may be accompanied by an intermittent chime.

Automatic locking reels (ALR)

All passenger seat belts have ALR fitted for use with child seats or securing large items.

To engage: extend belt to maximum length to enable locking mechanism.

Allow seat belt to retract onto the child seat/item (a clicking sound will be heard as the belt retracts). Ensure there is no slack by pressing the seat/item firmly into the vehicle seat.

To disengage: unbuckle belt and allow belt to fully retract.

With ALR enabled, as the seat belt retracts, it will automatically lock preventing re-extension.

Ensure passengers do not fully extend the restraints and inadvertently engage this feature during normal use.

13

Quick start

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 (page 73).

Recommended child seat

Land Rover strongly recommends the use of LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren) child seats.

LATCH child seats can only be fitted in the second-row outer seating positions.

LAN0618

Air conditioning

Air conditioning is an integral part of the heating and ventilation system, providing cooled and dehumidified air for occupant comfort. The dry airflow is effective in preventing misting of windows and is also beneficial at low external temperatures.

Air conditioning is automatically switched on and controlled whenever the system is not operating in economy mode.

External water deposits

The air conditioning system removes moisture from the air and deposits excess water beneath the vehicle. Puddles may form, but this is normal and no cause for concern.

AUTO mode

Press AUTO to select automatic operation of the system, both LEDs in the switch will illuminate.

The system will adjust the heat output, blower speed, air intake and airflow distribution to maintain the selected temperature(s) and reduce misting without further adjustments.

The air distribution and blower controls can be operated to override the automatic settings. This will extinguish the appropriate LED in the AUTO control.

Recommended mode

Select AUTO as the normal operating mode. This will help prevent window misting and odours from the climate control system.

15

Quick start

Temperature selection

Rotate the controls 1 to adjust the temperature for the respective side of the passenger compartment.

Operating note

On the automatic system, it is not possible to achieve a temperature differential of more than 4°C (7°F) between the left and right.

Blower speed

Rotate the blower control 2 to adjust airflow through the vents. As the control is adjusted, LEDs will illuminate to indicate which of the eight possible speeds is currently selected.

Air distribution control

Press to select the desired distribution setting. An LED will illuminate in the switch.

Windshield and side window vents

Face level vents

Foot level vents

More than one setting can be selected to achieve the desired distribution.

OFF

Press to switch the system off. An LED will illuminate in the switch to show this condition.

Press again to return the system to its previous operating mode. The system will also be reactivated by using the AUTO, blower speed, air distribution or defrost controls.

Defrost mode

Press to remove frost or heavy

misting from the windshield. The system will automatically adjust the

blower output for maximum clearing, in addition the rear window and windshield heaters will be activated.

Press again to switch off defrost mode. The rear screen and windshield heaters will remain on.

Air recirculation

Press once to activate air recirculation. An LED will illuminate in the switch.

Press again to return to fresh air intake.

Economy mode

Press button to put the system into economy mode. An LED will

illuminate in the switch to show this

condition.

In economy mode air conditioning is switched off. This reduces the load on the engine, thereby improving fuel consumption.

Heated windshield (when fitted)

Press to operate. An LED in the switch will illuminate whilst operating.

The heater will automatically switch off after a preset interval.

Heated rear window

Press to operate. An LED in the switch will illuminate whilst operating.

The heater will automatically switch off after a preset interval.

Quick start

Tachometer

Indicates engine speed in revolutions per minute (x 1 000). In normal driving conditions the engine is most fuel efficient between 2 000 and 3 000 rev/min.

Temperature gauge

At normal operating temperature, the pointer is positioned midway between the red and blue segments of the gauge (the precise position will vary according to climatic conditions).

E80509

If the pointer moves above the mid point, the engine coolant is becoming too hot. Should the pointer move into the red segment and the red warning indicator (arrowed) illuminates, severe engine damage could occur (under these circumstances the air conditioning may switch off and engine performance may reduce to minimise engine load).

Stop the vehicle as soon as safety permits, and allow the engine to idle until the warning indicator extinguishes and the pointer moves back to its normal position. If the problem persists, seek qualified assistance immediately.

Fuel gauge

CAUTION

Never allow vehicles to run out of fuel as the resultant misfire may destroy the catalytic converter.

When the starter switch is turned to position II, the pointer quickly rises to show the level of fuel in the tank.

E80510

When the remaining fuel reaches a minimum of 12 litres (3 gallons), the amber low fuel warning indicator (arrowed) illuminates.

The remaining fuel should give a range of 80 km (50 miles).

The small arrow alongside the fuel pump symbol indicates the side of the vehicle on which the fuel filler is located.

Total distance (odometer) and trip recorder

Indicates the total distance travelled, and also shows the most recent individual journey distance.

Trip recorder reset switch

With the starter switch in position II, press to reset the trip recorder back to zero.

Do not use E85 fuels (85 per cent ethanol content). If E85 fuels are used serious engine and fuel system damage will occur.

The correct fuel specification for your vehicle is shown on the inside of the fuel filler flap. See

TYPE OF FUEL (page 178).

Incorrect fuelling

CAUTION

If the fuel tank is accidentally filled with the wrong type of fuel, it is essential that the engine is not started and you seek qualified assistance.

35

Gas station information

Tire pressures

Air pressure naturally increases in warm tires; if it is necessary to check the tires when they are warm (after the vehicle has been driven for a while), you should expect the pressures to have increased by up to 30 - 40 kPa (4 - 6 PSI). In this circumstance, do not let air out of the tires in order to match the recommended cold tire pressures. See TIRE CARE (page 225).

Tire pressures label

LAN0708N

The correct tire pressures are shown on a label attached to the pillar behind the driver’s door.

Introduction

HEALTH AND SAFETY

WARNINGS

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 centre of gravity. Such a feature has been associated with an increased risk of vehicle roll-over.

Another factor shown to significantly increase roll-over risk is unauthorized vehicle modifications, such as fitting incorrect specification tires, oversize tires, incorrect springs/dampers, body lifting or incorrect vehicle loading/trailer towing.

However, on-road crash data also indicates that driver behaviour is a greater factor than a high centre 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 roll-over 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 sports car is designed to perform off-road. 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.

CAUTION

The overall height of your vehicle exceeds that of ordinary passenger cars.

See TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS. 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.

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.

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.

PARTS AND ACCESSORIES

WARNINGS

The fitting of non-approved parts and accessories, or the carrying out of

non-approved alterations or conversions, may be dangerous and could affect the safety of the vehicle and occupants and also invalidate the terms and conditions of the vehicle warranty.

Land Rover will not accept any liability for death, personal injury or damage to property which may occur as a direct result of

fitment on non-approved accessories or the carrying out of non-approved conversions to Land Rover vehicles.

Land Rover strongly advise against making any modifications to the
