DISABLING THE PASSENGER AIRBAG
Note: The passenger airbag should be disabled
only when a rearward fa cing child restraint if
fitted to the front passenger seat.
To disable the passenger airbag :-
1. Remove the emergency key from the
remote control. See USING THE KEY
(page 40).
2. Insert the end of the key blade into the slot
in the switch and rotate the switch to the
off position.
WARNINGS
Crash test data and statistics, show
that the safest place for a child to be
restrained, is in a child seat correctly
fitted to the vehicle's rear seat.
Do not use a child restraint on a seat
protected by an ope rational airbag in
front of it. Doing so presents a high
risk of death or serious injury to the child in the
event of an accident.
Do not fit a child restraint to the front
passenger seat if the SRS warning
light illuminates co ntinuously with the
ignition on.
E82699
WARNING
As soon as the child seat is removed
from the front passenger seat the
airbag must be turned on. Failure to do
so will put any front seat passengers at greater
risk of death or serious injury in the event of a
frontal impact.

Windows and mirrorsELECTRIC WINDOWS
With the ignition on, or engine running, press
the switch down to lower the window, pull it up
to raise the window. Release the switch at any
point to stop window movement.
The windows will operate for five minutes after
the engine is switched off, as long as the doors
are not opened.
One shot operation
All four windows have one-shot operation.
Briefly pull the switch up and release, the
window will continue to raise until fully closed.
Briefly press the switch down and release, the
window will continue to lower until fully open.
Pressing or pulling the switch again will stop
the window.
Overriding anti-trap protection
Anti-trap protection will stop window
movement if an obstruction or resistance is
detected. Check the window and it's aperture
and remove any obstructions , ice, etc. If it is
still necessary to raise the window, the override
procedure is as follows :-
1. Attempt to close the window, anti-trap will
prevent closure and lower the window
slightly.
2. Within ten seconds attempt to raise the
window again, anti-trap will prevent
closure and lower the window slightly.
3. Attempt to close the window for a third
time, this time hold the switch in the close
position. The window will raise whilst the
switch is held. Hold until closed.
Note: If this procedure fails to remove the
blockage, the window operation may need to
be reset.
WARNING
All of the windows have an anti-trap
protection system. However, before
closing a window care must be taken to ensure
that none of the occupa nts have any part of
their body in a position where it could be
trapped. Even with an anti-trap system serious
injury or death can occur.
E81161
WARNING
Ensure that you remove the remote
control when leaving occupants in the
vehicle. This will prevent unsupervised
operation of the windows, which may result in
injury.

CHARGING THE VEHICLE BATTERY
1. Disconnect the battery and remove it from
the vehicle.
2. Connect the battery charger in accordance
with the charger manufacturer's
instructions.
3. Once the charge is complete switch off the
power to the charger.
4. Disconnect the charger cables from the
battery.
5. Allow the battery to stand for an hour
before connecting to the vehicle. This will
allow any explosive gasses to dissipate,
and reduce the risk of explosion.
CHANGING THE VEHICLE BATTERY
Disconnecting
1. Ensure that all electrical circuits are
switched off, all windows are closed, and
the alarm is disarmed.
2. Remove the remote control from the
vehicle and wait two minutes to allow the
systems to power down fully.
3. Undo the negative clam p, and lift the cable
and clamp clear of th e battery terminal.
4. Undo the positive clamp, and lift the cable
and clamp clear of th e battery terminal.
5. Undo the battery clamp and lift the battery
clear of the vehicle.
WARNINGS
Ensure that the charger used is of the
correct type and rating for the battery.
Using an unsuitable charger may damage the
battery, and could cause the battery to
explode.
Always charge the battery in a well
ventilated area away from any naked
flames, sparks or ot her ignition sources.
During charging the battery can produce a
highly explosive a nd flammable gas.
CAUTIONS
The battery must be disconnected and
removed from the vehicle before
charging. Failure to do so could result in
damage to the vehicle's electrical system.
Always follow the instructions supplied
with the battery charger. Failure to do so
may result in damage to the battery.
WARNINGS
Use caution when lifting the battery out
of, or into, the vehicl e. It is heavy, and
may cause injury when lifting, or if dropped.
Do not tip the battery when lifting or
moving as tilting the battery more than
45 degrees may damage the battery, and may
cause the electrolyte to leak out. Battery
electrolyte is highly corrosive, and toxic.
CAUTIONS

Effects of disconnecting
Disconnecting the battery can affect a number
of vehicle systems, especially if there is
insufficient battery power prior to
disconnection. For example, the alarm may
trigger depending on it's state when the battery
was disconnected. If the alarm does sound,
use the remote control in the normal way to
disarm the security system. The windows may
need resetting to enable the one-shot feature to
operate correctly. See ELECTRIC WINDOWS
(page 93).
Replacement batteries
Battery disposal
Note: Used batteries must be disposed of
correctly as they contain a number of harmful
substances. Seek advice on disposal from your
Land Rover Dealer/Authoris ed Repairer, and/or
your local authority.
Refitting
A new battery should be supplied with plastic
terminal covers. Leave the covers in place
when fitting the battery, and remove them one
at a time to fit the battery cable clamps.
Refitting is an exact reversal of the removal
procedure. If you are in any doubt about fitting
a battery seek qualified assistance before
attempting to fit the battery.
WARNING
Only fit a battery of the correct type and
rating. Fitting an in correct battery may
result in a fire, or damage to the electrical
system. If you are in any doubt when fitting a
battery seek qualified assistance.
WARNING
When refitting the battery ensure that
no metal objects , or vehicle
components, come into contact with the
battery terminals. Metal objects can cause a
spark or short circuit, both of which may result
in an explosion.
CAUTIONS
Ensure that when fitting a battery to the
vehicle, the terminals and battery clamps
are clean, and lightly coated with petroleum
jelly. This will ensure good electrical
connections are made, and help to prevent
corrosion.
Always follow the battery manufacturers
instructions. Failure to do so may result
in damage to the vehicl e and/or the electrical
system.
