OWNER’S HANDBOOK
This handbook covers the current version of
the Land Rover Discovery and, together with
the Passport to Service, provides all the
information you need to derive maximum
pleasure from owning and driving your new
vehicle.
For your convenience, the handbook is divided
into sections, each dealing with a different
aspect of driving or caring for the vehicle. The
sections are listed on the contents page and
you will find it worthwhile to take a little time
to read each one, and get to know your
Discovery as soon as you possibly can. The
more you understand before you drive, the
greater the satisfaction once you are seated
behind the steering wheel.
Land Rover operates a policy of constant product
improvement and therefore reserves the right to change
specifications without notice at any time. Whilst every effort
is made to ensure complete accuracy of the information in
this handbook, no liabilities for inaccuracies or the
consequences thereof can be accepted by the
manufacturer, Land Rover North America Inc.

requirements for your Discovery, as well as
incorporating the service record slips, which
the Dealer should sign and stamp to certify
that the routine services have been carried out
at the recommended intervals.

handbook. These indicate either a procedure
which must be followed precisely, or
information that should be considered with
great care in order to avoid the possibility of

WARNING
Head restraints are designed to support the
back of the head (NOT THE NECK), and to
restrain rearward movement of the head in
the event of a collision. The restraint must
be positioned level with the head to be
effective.
DO NOT drive, or carry passengers, with the
head restraints removed.
Raise or lower the head restraint until it is
level with the back of the head.
Tilt the angle of the restraint to ensure it is as
close to the back of the head as possible.

INWARD FACING SEATS
(if fitted)
With the loadspace cover (if fitted) retracted
and stowed, pull out the seat stand, and fold
down the seatbase.
Please refer to Infant and child restraint
section for correct placement of the child seat.
WARNING
DO NOT attempt to fit an infant or child
restraint system to the inward facing seats.
Ensure that occupants of the inward facing
seats are able to comfortably rest their feet
on the load space floor when seated, and
are also able to sit comfortably within the
overall width of the seat cushion.
Inward facing seat belt stowage:
Fold the seat belt as shown and tuc
pocket behind the backrest.
Push the seat belt lock onto the cli
shown.
24
Seat belts are life saving equipment. In a
collision, occupants not wearing a seat belt
will be thrown around inside, or possibly
thrown out of the vehicle. This is likely to
result in more serious injuries than would
have been the case had a seat belt been
worn. It may even result in loss of life!
Don’t take chances with safety!
DO make sure ALL occupants are
securely strapped in at all times - even
for the shortest journeys.
The airbag supplementary restraint
system (SRS) (where fitted) is designed
to add to the overall effectiveness of the
seat belts, it DOES NOT replace them.
SEAT BELTS MUST ALWAYS BE WORN.
Ensure that all seat belts are worn
correctly - an improperly worn seat belt
increases the risk of death or serious
injury in the event of a collision.
DO use the seat belts to secure items of
luggage that are to be carried on the
seats - in the event of an accident, loose
items become flying missiles capable of
causing serious injury, or even death.
25
Fastening the inertia reel belts
Draw the belt over the shoulder and across
the chest, and then insert the metal tongue
plate into the lock nearest the wearer - a
’CLICK’ indicates that the belt is securely
locked.
In some circumstances, perhaps due to the
vehicle being parked on a slope, the inertia
mechanism may engage, preventing the initial
extension of a belt. This is not a fault - ease
the belt free and use it.
Adjust the seat belt to eliminate any slack in
the webbing. DO NOT slacken the webbing by
holding the belt away from the body - to be
fully effective, the seat belt must remain in full
contact with the body at all times. Also,
ensure that the lap belt fits as low on the hips
as possible and that the shoulder belt passes
across the shoulder without slipping off or
pressing on the neck.
Upper anchorage adjustm
(front seats only)
The height of the seat belt upper a
can be adjusted for comfort AND
the button out to raise or lower. Fo
seat belt should always be worn w
webbing crossing the shoulder mid
between the neck and the edge of
shoulder.
Ensure that the anchorage is corre
in one of the height positions befo
29
Always remember; the SRS/airbags are a supplementary restraint system providing
ADDITIONAL protection in certain types of frontal impact collisions only - they DO NOT replace
the need to wear a seat belt. For maximum safety protection in all crash situations, seat belts
must be worn!
How the SRS/airbag works
The airbag supplementary restraint system
(labelled SRS), includes twin airbag modules
(shown in illustration) for the driver and the
front seat passenger.
In the event of a collision involving a frontal
impact, the airbag diagnostic control unit,
monitors the speed of deceleration caused by
the impact, to determine whether the
SRS/airbag should be activated.
If there is sufficient deceleration, the system
causes both airbags to inflate. Inflation is
instantaneous and accompanied by a loud
noise. Also evident are traces of smoke and
powder, which do not indicate a malfunction
of the airbag or the presence of fire.
After inflation, the airbag will imm
deflate thereby ensuring that visib

NOTE: The SRS/airbag is not de
