Alarm Handset Battery
Replace
1.Insert the blade of a small, flat bladed
screwdriver into the slot at the keyring end of
the handset and carefully prise the two halves
of the handset apart.
2.Slide the battery out of the clip taking care not
to touch the circuit board or the battery
contacts.
3.Press and hold each button in turn for at least 5
seconds to drain any residual power from the
handset.
4.Fit the replacement battery (Land Rover
STC4080 or Panasonic CR2032) ensuring the
correct polarity is maintained (+) side facing
upwards. Avoid touching the flat surfaces of the
battery.
5.Press the 2 halves of the handset together,
making sure the two halves click into place
correctly.
6.Check the operation of the handset.
Road Wheels
Remove
1.Loosen wheel nuts. Raise vehicle for wheel
free condition and remove the wheel nuts.
2.Mark the wheel to stud relationship to ensure
that the wheels are refitted in the same
orientation.
Refit
1.Apply a thin coat of anti-seize compound to
wheel hub centre.
2.Refit wheels to original hub position.
NOTE: When refitting road wheel nuts, do not
overtighten using powered tools. Ensure the
wheel nuts are correctly torqued in the correct
sequence.
3.Tighten wheel nuts to 115 Nm (85 lbf.ft).

move the joint forwards and backwards, side to
side and up and down. No wear should be
apparent, if any is detected then the joint must
be replaced.
5.Check for signs of leakage from suspension
dampers.Check Rear Suspension
1.Check tightness of all accessible suspension
fixings including transverse links.
2.Check wheel bearings and suspension struts
for signs of excessive play or wear.
3.Check for signs of leakage from suspension
dampers.
Check Tow Bar Fixings
1.Check that the two vertical fixings are tightened
to a torque of 110 Nm (82 lbf.ft).
2.Check that the six transverse fixings are
tightened to a torque of 60 Nm (45 lbf.ft).
