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
a Quick Start area, 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 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, they 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 next owner with this vehicle.
This handbook covers all current versions of the Range Rover petrol and diesel models and, together
with the other books in your literature pack, provides all the information that you need to derive
maximum pleasure from owning and driving your new 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 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.

We operate a policy of constant product improvement and therefore reserve the right to change
specifications, without notice, at any time. While 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 Dealer, except in respect of personal injury caused by the
negligence of the manufacturer or Dealer.
