WARNINGS
High speed impacts may cause serious
injury or death irre spective of safety
features fitted to a vehicle. Always
drive with caution and consideration for the
vehicle's characteristics, road and weather
conditions, and do not exceed any speed limits
in force.
Seat belts should be worn at all times,
by the driver and passengers in all
seating positions. The airbag SRS
cannot provide protection in some types of
impact. Under these circumstances the only
protection will be provided by a correctly worn
seat belt.
Airbags inflate at high speeds, and can
cause injuries. To minimise the risk of
injury, ensure that all vehicle
occupants wear correct ly positioned seat
belts, sit correctly in the seats, and position
the seats as far back as practical.
Ensure that a gap is maintained
between the side of the vehicle, and the
head and torso. This will enable
unobstructed inflation of the curtain, and seat
mounted side airbags.
Airbag inflation takes place
instantaneously, a nd cannot protect
against the effects of secondary
impacts. Under these circumstances the only
protection will be provided by a correctly worn
seat belt.

Child safetyCHILD SEATS
It is very important for all infants and children
under 12 years of age to be restrained in a
suitable child safety seat appropriate to their
age and size. If it is essential that a child travels in the front
passenger seat, Land Ro ver recommends that
the following preparations are made before
fitting the child restraint.
• Disable the front pass enger airbag. See
DISABLING THE PASSENGER AIRBAG
(page 62).
• Adjust the front passenger seat fully
rearwards.
• Adjust the lumbar support to its minimum
support position.
• Adjust the seat cushion to its highest
position. If cushion rake adjustment is
possible, adjust it to its lowest position.
• Adjust the seat be lt adjustable upper
anchorage to its lowest position.
This symbol is affixed to the end of the facia on
the passenger side. Its purpose is to warn
against the use of a rear facing child seat when
the front passenger ai rbag is fitted and
operational.
WARNINGS
Do not use a child restraint on a seat
with an operational airbag in front of
it. There is a risk of death or serious injury
when the airbag deploys.
Crash statistics show that children are
safest when properly restrained on
the rear seat.
Do not use a forward facing child seat
until the child using it is above the
minimum weight of 9 kg (20 lb.) and able to
sit up unaided. Up to the age of two, a child's
spine and neck are not sufficiently developed
to avoid injury in a frontal impact.
Do not allow a baby or infant to be
held or carried on the lap. The force of
a crash can increase effective body weight by
as much as thirty times, making it
impossible to hold onto the child. Children
typically require the use of a booster seat
appropriate to their age and size, thereby
enabling the seat belts to be properly fitted,
reducing the risk of injury in a crash.
Children could be enda ngered in a crash if
their child restraints are not properly secured
in the vehicle.
Do not use a child seat that hooks
over the seat back. This type of seat
cannot be satisfactorily secured and is
unlikely to be safe for your child.
WARNING
Original text according to ECE R94.
01. Extreme hazard! Do not use a
rearward facing child restraint on a seat
protected by an operational airbag in front of
it!

ISOFIX ANCHOR POINTS
Both of the outer seat pos itions on the rear seat
are equipped to accept ISOFIX restraints.
This symbol is shown on a label
sewn into the seats to indicate the
position of the ISOFIX lower
anchorages.
WARNINGS
Do not attempt to fit ISOFIX restraints
to the centre seating position. The
anchor bars are not designed to hold an
ISOFIX restraint in this position.
If the restraint is not correctly
anchored, there is a significant risk of
injury to the child in the event of a collision or
emergency braking.
Child restraint anchorages are
designed to withstand only loads
imposed by correctly fi tted child restraints.
Under no circumstances are they to be used
for adult seat belts, harnesses, or for
attaching other items or equipment to the
vehicle.
If removing a head restraint in order to
fit a child restraint, always secure the
head restraint when stor ing it. If left loose in
the vehicle it may cause death or serious
injury during sudden braking or an impact.

ISOFIX child seats
• IUF = Suitable for ISOFIX forward child
restraint systems of universal category
approved for use in the mass group.
• IL = These ISOFIX child restraint systems
are of the specific vehicle, restricted, or
semi-universal categories.
• * = Child seats suitable for use in these
locations are Britax Cosy-Tot, and Römer
Baby Safe ISOFIX.
Installing an ISOFIX child seat
To install an ISOFIX child seat :-
1. Raise or remove the head restraint.
2. Lift the velcro flap to expose the ISOFIX
locking mechanism.
3. Slide the child seat into the locking
mechanism.
4. Test the security of the child restraint. To
do this attempt to pull the restraint away
from the vehicle seat and twist the restraint
from side to side. Even if the restraint
appears secure you should still check the
anchor points visually to ensure correct
attachment.
Note: Always ensure that if an upper tether is
provided, it is fitted and tightened correctly.

driving in countries where vehicles drive on the
left, or the right. When new, the lever will be set to the correct
position for the country in which the vehicle is
sold. To change the pattern for driving on the
other side of the road, move the lever to the
opposite position.
Note: When changing the beam pattern using
the lever, ensure that you change the lever
position on both headlamps.
HEADLAMP LEVELLING
