87-8 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Calibration Routine
1Park the vehicle outside in an area clear of high buildings, trees etc.
NOTE: The more open the surrounding area is, the faster the system will acquire sufficient GPS satellite signals to
begin calibration. To minimise the calibration time, the vehicle should not be moved again until the calibration
ride.
2Turn the ignition switch to position II. If the navigation computer does not come on, press the navigation
computer ON button.
3If necessary, use the navigation computer multifunction buttons to enter the security code.
4Turn the ignition switch to position 0 and remove the ignition key.
5Press the navigation computer ON button.
6Call up the SENSORS screen on the LCD:
lIf the navigation CD-ROM has not been installed before, press and hold multifunction button 1 then press
multifunction button 10.
lIf the navigation CD-ROM has been installed before, use the garage menu as detailed above.
7Turn the LH rotary control to minimum volume.
8Wait for 30 minutes. If necessary, the vehicle can be left unattended and locked.
NOTE: Land Rover recommend a minimum of 30 minutes be allowed to elapse in order to ensure that only a short
distance need be driven to achieve calibration.
9After the 30 minutes have elapsed, ensure the navigation computer LCD shows a GPS almanac figure of 27 or
higher.
10Start the vehicle engine and allow to idle.
11Install the navigation CD-ROM.
12Wait until the navigation computer LCD prompts for a language to be selected. Turn the RH rotary control to
scroll through the options, highlight the required language and press the RH rotary control to select.
13The navigation computer LCD will prompt for a voice to be selected. Turn the RH rotary control to scroll through
the options, highlight the required voice and press the RH rotary control to select.
14Wait until the navigation computer LCD advises "language has been loaded OK". Press the RH rotary control to
confirm the language and voice selections.
15The navigation computer LCD will default to the CALIBRATION RIDE screen and should show the
CALIBRATION RIDE CAN START message. The GPS data and the road speed counter will also be shown.
16Drive the vehicle over a road route approximating that shown below (it is not necessary to copy the route
exactly). Calibration is complete when the navigation computer LCD switches to show DESTINATION & POI
and the satellite graphic. If all the pre calibration ride conditions were complied with, calibration is typically
achieved within 3 miles (5 km) and usually occurs when the vehicle returns to the start point. However,
calibration may be achieved earlier in the journey and, if it is, there is no need to complete the remainder of the
calibration route.
17After calibration is achieved, return to the dealership, park the vehicle and stop the engine.
18Turn the ignition switch to position I.
19Use the system settings menu to set the navigation computer to local time and the required units of measure:
aPress the Nav button.

control to select. Press the + or – multifunction button to adjust the time in 30 minute steps. Select the 24
hour clock and confirm by pressing the OK multifunction button.
cIf metric units of measure are required, go to step e) (the navigation computer defaults to metric units of
measure).
dIf Imperial units of measure are required, turn the RH rotary control to scroll through the displayed menu,
highlight MEASURING UNIT and press the RH rotary control to select. Turn the RH rotary control to
highlight IMPERIAL and press the RH rotary control to select.
ePress the Nav button to return to the destination menu.
20Calibration is complete. The navigation system is ready for use.
NOTE: The accuracy of the system will automatically be fine tuned when a further journey is made, but this is not
required as part of the calibration procedure.
NOTE: In European countries, the territory will have to be set the first time the navigation system is used, and the
first time a destination in another country is selected. The first time the navigation system is used or a destination
in another country is selected, a map is displayed with the default/current territory highlighted. To change the
territory: Press the RH rotary control to display the territory list; turn the RH rotary control to scroll through the
list and highlight the required territory; press the RH rotary control to confirm the selection.

NAVIGATION SYSTEM
87-14 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Description
General
Where fitted, the CARiN III and Trafficmaster system combines a satellite navigation system (CARiN III) with a real-
time traffic information system (Trafficmaster).
The satellite navigation system provides computer generated audible and visual route guidance information to enable
the driver to reach a desired destination. The system allows the driver to choose between road navigation and off-
road navigation, and to incorporate waypoints. Road navigation also allows the driver to choose between using minor
or major roads and the quickest or shortest route. Directions to hospitals, museums, monuments, hotels etc. are also
available. The computer uses map information stored on a CD-ROM to determine the best route for the journey and
provide the driver with details of directions and approaching junctions. The current position of the vehicle is
determined using a combination of vehicle sensor inputs and the Global Positioning System (GPS).
The Trafficmaster system displays live traffic flow information on the road navigation map screens. Traffic speed is
indicated on the maps by colour coded roads and arrows. The traffic flow information is relayed from a network of
sensors covering motorways and trunk roads. Data from the sensors is updated on a three minute cycle, 24 hours a
day, 365 days a year.
The navigation system consists of the following components:
lNavigation computer
lGPS antenna
lDisplay unit
lSwitch pack
lNavigation speaker
lTrafficmaster monitor ECU
lTrafficmaster antenna
Navigation Computer
The navigation computer is located in a bracket under the RH front seat, immediately behind the CD autochanger.
The navigation computer contains all the hardware and software required for control of the navigation system,
including the GPS receiver and a solid state piezo gyro. Using the gyro, and inputs from the GPS antenna and the
vehicle K bus, the navigation computer determines the vehicle’s current position, direction and speed.
The navigation computer also houses a CD-ROM drive. The drive is used to read map data from country specific CD’s
and also to load software into the computer. A button, adjacent to the CD slot, is provided to eject the CD from the
unit. If the ignition is on, one press of the button will eject the CD. If the ignition is off, two presses are required, one
to wake up the system and the second to eject the CD. Access to the CD-ROM drive is from the rear of the RH front
seat.

General
The navigation system operates when the ignition switch is in position I or II. Momentarily pressing the menu switch
brings up the navigation system main menu, from which road navigation, off-road navigation and settings menus can
be accessed. Highlighting and selecting Monitor Off, with the rotary controller, switches the system off.
The settings menus consist of:
lA basic settings menu intended for use by the vehicle owner
lA service mode containing a series of menus intended for use by service personnel carrying out checks and fault
diagnosis on the system.
Main Menu
Basic Settings
The basic settings menu is accessed from the main menu by highlighting and selecting Set with the rotary controller.
The basic settings menu allows the user to change:
lLanguage – Adjusting this setting will change the language used for all display screens and audio instructions
lUnits – This setting alters the type of unit (Imperial or metric) used by the navigation system to measure distance
lVolume – This setting alters the volume at which audio instructions are given. The audio instruction voice will
sound during adjustment to help in setting the volume.
lWaypoint radius – The waypoint radius defines the area that the vehicle has to enter to register that a waypoint
or the destination has been reached. The waypoint radius will apply to all destinations and waypoints; a different
radius cannot be set for different waypoints/destinations.

INSTRUMENTS
88-8 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Tachometer
The tachometer is an integral part of the instrument pack. Located next to the speedometer. it displays engine speed
in revolutions per minute. It is an analogue gauge with a maximum reading of 6000 rev/min.
V8 and diesel variants use the same gauge.
The input for the tachometer is from the ECM. It is a digital signal at 2 pulses per engine revolution. When the ignition
is switched on with the engine not running, the ECM will generates pulses equivalent to 228 rev/min for diagnostic
purposes. The tachometer will not register a reading, as it only indicate engine speeds above 228 rev/min.

INSTRUMENTS
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 88-9
Fuel gauge
The fuel gauge is an analogue gauge that indicates the level of fuel in the fuel tank with the ignition on. The fuel gauge
returns to 0 with ignition off. The gauge reading is proportional to the level of fuel in the tank. It is a damped action
gauge to prevent erroneous readings caused by fuel moving in the tank. The damping action is minimised when the
ignition is switched on to give an accurate reading within 2.5 seconds.
The signal input for the fuel gauge is from the tank sender unit, it is a variable voltage signal proportional to the level
of fuel in the tank. The instrument pack provides the power via fuse 27 to the fuel gauge, then from the gauge on to
the fuel tank sender unit. The earth path return circuit of the sender unit is connected to the instrument pack.
A low fuel level signal is provided for the ECM when the sender resistance is greater than 158±8 ohms, this is used
to create a fault code indicating low fuel level during misfire diagnosis using TestBook.

INSTRUMENTS
88-12 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)/ SERVICE ENGINE SOON warning lamp
The MIL/service engine soon warning lamp within the instrument pack utilises an amber LED and a clear legend. If
an emission related fault is detected by the engine management system or, on automatic gearbox models, the EAT
ECU, the ECM will illuminate the LED providing the driver with a visible warning.
The warning lamp will illuminate whenever the vehicle is driven until the fault is repaired, and the ECM fault code
memory is cleared using TestBook.
When the ignition is switch on the ECM carries out a self-test function of the lamp. The lamp will illuminate for 3
seconds then extinguish if no faults exist. If a fault is present the lamp will be extinguished for 1 second before
illuminating again to indicate a fault exists.
There are two configurations of the legend for the warning lamp:
lNAS and Canada = SERVICE ENGINE SOON text.
lAll other markets = MIL SAE J1930 symbol.
The power input for the LED is supplied by the instrument pack via fuse 27. The ECM provides a voltage to the
instrument pack Central Processing Unit (CPU) to control the warning lamp:
l< 1.8 volts = warning lamp on.
l> 7.7 volts = warning lamp off.

INSTRUMENTS
88-16 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Direction indicator warning lamps
The direction indicator warning lamp within the instrument pack utilises a green LED and a clear legend. The LED
flashes at the same rate as the external indicators, providing the driver with a visible warning.
Operating the left-hand indicator switch instructs the BCU to activate the left-hand indicator warning lamp.
Operating the right indicator switch instructs the BCU to activate the right-hand indicator warning lamp.
There is no self-test performed at ignition on for these warning lamps.
The power input for the LED is supplied by the instrument pack via fuse 27. The earth path for the warning lamps is
from the BCU.

INSTRUMENTS
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 88-17
Main beam warning lamp
The main beam warning lamp within the instrument pack utilises a clear 14 volt 2 watt long life bulb and a blue legend.
The bulb illuminates when the headlamps are switched to main beam, providing the driver with a visible warning.
There is no self-test performed at ignition on for this warning lamp.
Operating the main beam switch provides the Intelligent Driver Module (IDM) with battery voltage. This feed activates
the IDM to supply the power for the main beam warning lamp. The earth path is provided through the instrument pack.
