2 Owner’s Handbook This handbook covers current Land Rover Defender models and, together with the Service Portfolio book, provides all the information you 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 title page and you will find it worthwhile to take a little time to read each one, and get to know your Defender 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 dealer, except in respect of personal injury caused by the negligence of the manufacturer or the dealer.

Introduction 4 I ntrodu ct io nBEFORE YOU DRIVE WARNING Your vehicle has a higher ground clearance and, hence, a higher centre of gravity than ordinary passenger cars. This will result in different handling characteristics. Inexperienced drivers should take additional care, particularly in off-road driving situations and when performing abrupt manoeuvres on unstable surfaces. SYMBOLS USED The following symbols used within the handbook call your attention to specific types of information. This recycling symbol identifies those items that must be disposed of safely in order to prevent unnecessary damage to the environment. *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. WARNINGS IN THIS HANDBOOK WARNING Safety warnings are included in this handbook. These indicate either a procedure which must be followed precisely, or information that should be considered with great care in order to avoid the possibility of personal injury or serious damage to the vehicle. SECURITY CARD The security card, supplied with the literature pack, contains important emergency information. It is ESSENTIAL that you keep the card safe from theft and ensure that it is passed to the new owner if you sell the vehicle. •Key number: This is the number of the starter/door key - essential if you ever need to obtain a replacement. •Emergency key access code: You will need this code in order to start the vehicle if the handset has been lost or damaged (see ‘Emergency key access’, page 15). •Locking wheel nut number: If your vehicle has locking wheel nuts, you will have been provided with a special wheel nut socket to remove them. You will need to quote this number to obtain a replacement socket. •VIN (vehicle identification number): This identity number is unique to your vehicle and is essential proof of its specification. The number can also be found in various locations around the vehicle (see ‘VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER (VIN)’, page 123). •Radio security code number *: This unique code must be entered into the radio whenever the power supply has been disconnected. Without this code, the radio unit will not operate (see Security code in the In-Car Entertainment book). WARNING Never leave the security card inside the vehicle when it is unattended. Memorise the emergency key access code, or keep the card on your person while driving, in case of emergencies.
Introduction 5 SERVICE PORTFOLIO The Service Portfolio 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 First Service Voucher, and the service record slips, which the Dealer should sign and stamp to certify that the routine services have been carried out at the recommended intervals. 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 utilises very high voltages. DO NOT touch any ignition components while the starter switch is turned on! DIFFERENTIAL LOCK LABEL Information concerning operation of the differential lock is printed on the centre console. This is important information and must be understood fully with reference to the ‘Gearbox and Transmission’ sections of this handbook, before using the transfer gearbox. The label contains the following warning: “THE DIFFERENTIAL LOCK SHOULD ONLY BE ENGAGED WHEN TRACTION IS LIKELY TO BE LOST. WIDE THROTTLE OPENINGS SHOULD BE AVOIDED WHEN USED IN CONJUNCTION WITH 1st AND 2nd GEAR LOW RANGE. AS SOON AS THE DIFFICULT SURFACE HAS BEEN CROSSED THE DIFFERENTIAL LOCK MUST BE RELEASED. A SINGLE AXLE ROLLER RIG MAY BE USED FOR SPEEDS UP TO 5 km/h. THE CENTRE DIFFERENTIAL LOCK MUST BE DISENGAGED. FOR ROLLER TESTS ABOVE 5 km/h EITHER ALL FOUR WHEELS MUST BE ROTATED AT THE SAME SPEED OR IF ONLY A SINGLE AXLE ROLLER RIG IS AVAILABLE, THE DIFFERENTIAL MUST BE LOCKED AND THE PROPELLER SHAFT TO STATIONARY AXLE MUST BE REMOVED.” THE DIFFERENTIAL LOCK SHOULD ONLY BE ENGAGED WHEN TRACTION IS LIKELY WIDE THROTTLE OPENINGS SHOULD BE AVOIDED WHEN USED IN CONJUNCTION WIT1st AND 2nd GEAR LOW RANGE. AS SOON AS THE DIFFICULT SURFACE HAS BEENDIFFERENTIAL LOCK MUST BE RELEASED. A SINGLE AXLE ROLLER RIG MAY BE USED FOR SPEEDS UP TO 5km/h. THE CENTDIFFERENTIAL LOCK MUST BE DISENGAGED. FOR ROLLER TESTS OVER 5 km/H EIWHEELS MUST BE ROTATED AT THE SAME SPEED OR IF ONLY A SINGLE AXLE ROL AVAILABLE, THE CENTRE DIFFERENTIAL MUST BE LOCKED AND THE PROPELLER SSTATIONARY AXLE MUST BE REMOVED. WARNING H3757
Introduction 6 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 into a lay-by. 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 countries). •Evacuate passengers through nearside doors onto the verge, well away from the road, as a precaution in case your vehicle is accidentally struck by other traffic.
