One or both types of serv ice interval (distance
and time) may be displayed. For example, if an
engine oil service is du e based on mileage, and
a brake fluid change is due based on time, both
distance and time c ountdowns will display.
Service Portfolio
The Service Portfolio book includes a Service
Record section, which enables a record to be
kept of all the servicing and inspections that are
carried out on the vehicle. This section of the
book also has an area for brake fluid changes
to be recorded.
Ensure your service provider signs and stamps
the book after each se rvice and inspection.
Owner Maintenance
In addition to the routine maintenance, a
number of simple checks must be carried out
more frequently. Advice is given on the pages
that follow.
Daily checks
• Operation of lamps, horn, direction
indicators, wipers, washers and warning
indicators.
• Operation of seat belts and brakes.
• Look for fluid deposits underneath the
vehicle that might indicate a leak.
Weekly checks
• Engine oil level. See ENGINE OIL CHECK
(page 162).
• Engine coolant check. See ENGINE
COOLANT CHECK (page 163).
• Brake/clutch fluid level. See BRAKE AND
CLUTCH FLUID CHECK (page 165). •
Power steering fluid level. See POWER
STEERING FLUID CHECK (page 166).
• Screen washer fluid level. See WASHER
FLUID CHECK (page 167).
• Tyre pressure s and condition.
• Operate air conditioning.
Note: The engine oil leve l should be checked
more frequently if the vehicle is driven for
prolonged periods at high speeds.
Driving in arduous conditions
When a vehicle is operated in extremely
arduous conditions, more frequent attention
must be paid to servicing requirements.
For example, if your vehicle experiences deep
wading conditions, even daily servicing could
be necessary to ensure the continued safe and
reliable operation of the vehicle.
Arduous driving conditions include:
• Driving in dusty and/or sandy conditions.
• Driving on rough and/or muddy roads
and/or wading.
• Driving in extremely hot conditions.
• Towing a trailer or driving in mountainous
conditions.
Contact a Land Rover Dealer/Authorised
Repairer for advice.
Emission control
Your vehicle is fitted with various items of
emission and evaporative control equipment,
designed to meet sp ecific territorial
requirements. You should be aware that
unauthorised replacemen t, modification or
tampering with this equipment by an owner or
repair shop, may be unlawful and subject to
legal penalties.
CAUTION
Any significant or sudden drop in fluid
levels, or uneven tyre wear, should be
reported to a qualified technician without
delay.

159
Maintenance
R
In addition, engine se ttings must not be
tampered with. These have been established to
ensure that your vehicle complies with
stringent exhaust em ission regulations.
Incorrect engine settings may adversely affect
exhaust emissions, engi ne performance and
fuel consumption. The y may also cause high
temperatures, which will result in damage to
the catalytic converter and the vehicle.
Road testing dynamometers (rolling
roads)
Because your vehicle is equipped with anti-lock
brakes and four wheel drive, it is essential that
any dynamometer testing is carried out only by
a qualified person, familiar with the
dynamometer testing an d safety procedures
practised by Land Rove r Dealers/Authorised
Repairers.
Safety in the garage
Fuel system
Poisonous fluids
Fluids used in motor vehicles are poisonous
and should not be consumed or brought into
contact with open wounds. These include;
battery acid, antifreeze, brake, clutch and
power steering fluid, petr ol, diesel, engine oil
and windscreen washer additives.
For your own safety, al ways read and obey all
instructions printed on labels and containers.
Used engine oil
Prolonged contact with engine oil may cause
serious skin disorders, including dermatitis
and cancer of the skin. Always wash
thoroughly after contact.
It is illegal to pollute drains, water
courses or soil. Use authorised
waste disposal sites to dispose of
used oil and toxic chemicals.
WARNINGS
If the vehicle has been driven recently,
do not touch exhaust and cooling
system components un til the engine has
cooled.
Never leave the engine running in an
unventilated area - exhaust gases are
poisonous and extremely dangerous.
Do not work beneath the vehicle with
the wheel changing jack as the only
means of support.
Keep your hands and clothing away
from drive belt s and pulleys.
Remove metal wr ist bands and
jewellery, before working in the engine
compartment.
Do not touch electrical leads or
components while the engine is
running, or with the starter switch turned on.
Do not allow tools or metal parts of the
vehicle to make contact with the battery
leads or terminals.
WARNINGS
Under no circumstances should any
part of the fuel system be dismantled or
replaced by anyone other than a suitably
qualified vehicle technician. Failure to comply
with this instruction, may result in fuel spillage
with a consequent serious risk of fire.
Ensure sparks and naked lights are kept
away from the engine compartment.
Wear protective cl othing, including,
where practicable, gloves made from
an impervious material.

3. Clean the filler cap before removing to
prevent dirt from entering the reservoir.
4. Remove the filler cap.
5. The brake fluid level should be between the
MIN and the MAX marks.
The fluid level may drop slightly during normal
use as a result of brake pad wear but should
not be allowed to drop below the MIN mark.
Topping up the fluid
1.Top-up the reservoir to the MAX mark
using Shell DOT4 ESL brake fluid. If Shell
DOT4 ESL is not availa ble, a low viscosity
DOT4 brake fluid that meets ISO 4925
class 6 and Land Rover LRES22BF03
requirements ma y be used. 2.
Replace the cap.
3. Fit the reservoir cover in the reverse order
of removal.
POWER STEERING FLUID CHECK
Checking the fluid level
Check and top-up the fluid with the vehicle on
level ground, engine switched off, and the
system cold. Ensure that the steering wheel is
not turned after stopping the engine.
CAUTIONS
Brake fluid will damage painted surfaces.
Soak up any spillage with an absorbent
cloth immediately and wash the area with a
mixture of car sh ampoo and water.
Only use new fluid from an airtight
container (fluid from opened containers
or fluid previously bled from the system will
have absorbed moisture, which will adversely
affect performance, and must not be used).
E84162
WARNINGS
Power steering fluid is highly toxic.
Keep containers sealed and out of reach
of children. If accidental consumption of fluid
is suspected, seek medical attention
immediately.
If the fluid comes into contact with the
skin or eyes, rinse immediately with
plenty of water.
CAUTIONS
The engine must not be started if the fluid
level has dropped below the MIN mark.
Severe damage to th e steering pump could
result.
Seek qualified assistance immediately if
there is a noticeable drop in the fluid
level. Severe damage to the steering pump
could result.
If fluid loss is slow, the reservoir may be
topped-up to the uppe r level mark to
enable the vehicle to be driven to a repair
facility for examinatio n. However, it is
recommended that you seek qualified
assistance before driving the vehicle.

Maintenance
R
The level of fluid can be seen through the
translucent body of the reservoir.
The fluid level should be between the MIN and
the MAX marks.
Topping up the fluid
1.Clean the filler cap before removing to
prevent dirt from entering the reservoir.
2. Remove filler cap.
3. Using Pentosin CHF202 fluid, top-up the
reservoir until the flui d level is between the
MIN and MAX marks.
4. Replace filler cap.
WASHER FLUID CHECK
If the quantity of fluid remaining in
the washer reservoir drops to less
than one litre, an amber warning
indicator in the instrument pack will illuminate
or the message LOW WASHER FLUID will be
displayed in the message centre.
CAUTIONS
Power steering fluid will damage painted
surfaces. Soak up any spillage with an
absorbent cloth immediately and wash the
area with a mixture of car shampoo and water.
Do not fill the reservoir above the MAX
mark.
E83619
WARNINGS
Some screen washer products are
inflammable, particul arly if high or
undiluted concentrati ons are exposed to
sparking. Do not allow screen washer fluid to
come into contact with naked flames or
sources of ignition.
If the vehicle is operated in
temperatures below 4°C (40°F), use a
washer fluid with frost protection. In cold
weather, failure to use a washer fluid with frost
protection, could result in impaired vision and
increase the risk of a vehicle crash.
CAUTIONS
Do not use an antifree ze or vinegar/water
solution in the washer reservoir -
antifreeze will damage painted surfaces, while
vinegar can damage th e windscreen washer
pump.
Body panels may suff er discolouration as
a result of screen washer fluid spillage.
Take care to avoid spilla ge, particularly if an
undiluted or high concentr ation is being used.
If spillage occurs, wash the affected area
immediately with water.
