For your convenience, the handbook is divided into sections, each dealing with a
different aspect of driving or caring for the car. Take a little time to read each one
and get to know your new Rover as soon as you possibly can.
•‘Before you drive’ - includes seat adjustment, seat belts and heating contro
and deals with everything you need to know in order to settle comfortably in
the car before you drive.
•‘Driving controls’ - here the functions and operation of the switches,
instruments and driving controls are explained.
•‘Maintenance’ - includes information about the checks that you should carr
out on a regular basis.
•‘Emergency information’ - will help to solve some of those unavoidable
little emergencies that occur from time to time, like replacing bulbs and fuse
or changing a wheel.
•‘Technical Data’ - includes the technical specification for your car.
This warning symbol identifies procedures that must be followed precisely, o
information that must be considered with great care, in order to reduce the ris

With the key:
•Turn the key in the driver’s door lock towards the front of
the car to disarm the alarm and unlock the driver’s door
only (see ‘Single point entry’).
•Turn the key twice (or press the interior locking button),
to unlock ALL the doors.
Using the remote handset
While it is not necessary to point the handset at the car, the
handset must be within range when the buttons are pressed.
Note that the operating range may vary depending upon
handset battery condition and may sometimes be limited by
physical and geographical factors beyond your control. From
a security point of view, it may not be wise to unlock unless
you are within a few feet of the car.

using the remote handset. Superlocking immobilises the
interior door handles, thereby preventing an intruder from
gaining entry by smashing a window and reaching inside the
car to operate the door handles.
Anti-theft alarm indicator light
This light provides information about the status of the alarm
system, as follows:
•When the alarm is armed:
The light flashes RAPIDLY while the alarm is arming
itself. After ten seconds, the light adjusts to a slower
frequency and continues to flash as an anti-theft deterrent
until the alarm is disarmed.
•When the alarm is partially armed: (mislock)
The light flashes SLOWLY for 10 seconds, then flashes as
an anti-theft deterrent (as above) until the alarm is
disarmed.
•When the alarm has been triggered:
If the light flashes after the car is unlocked, this indicates
that the alarm has been triggered during the driver’s
absence. The light will flash for up to one minute or until
the starter switch is turned on.

doors will lock and the alarm system will not be armed.
If a passenger door, bonnet or boot lid is not fully closed when
the handset lock button is pressed, the alarm sounder or
vehicle horn will sound once, indicating a mislock. However,
the ‘partial arming’ attributes of the security system will
enable as much of the system to be armed as possible (all fully
closed door, bonnet or boot apertures will be protected, but
an open door will not!). As soon as the open aperture is
closed, the system will automatically revert to an armed state.
If the alarm sounds
If the alarm is triggered, the alarm sounder or vehicle horn
will sound for 30 seconds before switching off and resetting
itself to the same protection status that existed prior to the
alarm being triggered.To silence the alarm, press either button
on the remote handset, or lock/unlock the door using the
key.

•
DO NOT allow occupants to travel with the seat backs
reclined steeply rearwards. Optimum benefit is obtained
from the seat belt with the backrest angle set to
approximately 25° from the upright (vertical).
•Adjust seat belts to eliminate any slack. Do not pull the belt
away from the body while travelling - to be fully effective,
the seat belt must remain in full contact with the body at
all times.
•Fit the lap strap across the PELVIS (never across the
abdomen), ensuring that the diagonal strap passes across
the CHEST and SHOULDER without bearing on the
neck.
•DO NOT wear seat belts over hard, sharp or fragile items
in clothing, such as pens, keys, spectacles etc.
•Ensure that seat belts are not twisted or obstructed in any
way.
•Always replace a seat belt assembly that has withstood the
strain of a severe vehicle impact, or if the webbing shows
signs of fraying.
•Where possible, use the seat belts to secure luggage carried
on the seats - in an accident, loose items can be thrown
around inside the car, causing serious injury.
•In most countries, all occupants are required by law to
wear a seat belt, unless they have been issued with a
medical exemption certificate.
•During pregnancy, women should wear the lap belt across
the hips below the baby, with the diagonal belt passing
across the shoulder, between the breasts and to one side of
the baby - if in doubt, consult a doctor.

Children are more likely to receive injuries from inflating
airbags than taller occupants (see ‘Airbag SRS’). For this
reason, it is recommended that children should always be
seated in the rear of the vehicle, in a child safety seat or
restraint system appropriate to their age and size. The range of
safety seats approved for use in your car is outlined in the
Rover accessories brochure, which is available from your
Rover dealer.
For optimum protection, it is recommended that children
weighing up to 13 kg (29 lb - or approximately 18 months of
age) are restrained in a Rover approved rear facing child seat
in an outer rear seating position.
All infant and child restraint systems are designed to be
secured in the car by means of an adult seat belt.

When installing and using any infant or child restraint system,
always follow the manufacturer’s instructions. Failure to
properly secure the child restraint system can endanger the
child in a collision or sudden stop and cause injury to other
passengers.

install a child seat is as follows:
1. Install the child seat in the car, attach the seat belt and
secure the buckle in accordance with the manufacturer’s
fitting instructions.
2. Pull on the shoulder section of the belt to unreel all of the
remaining webbing to the limit of its travel. This will
engage the automatic locking feature, which then acts as
a ratchet, only allowing the webbing to retract.
3. Allow the seat belt to retract onto the child seat (a
‘clicking’ sound will confirm that the ratchet has
engaged), firmly pushing the child seat into the seat.
4. Ensure that there is no slack in the seat belt by pulling
upwards on the shoulder belt, immediately above the
child restraint. The seat belt should now be locked and
the child seat held firmly in position.
Once the child seat is removed and all the seat belt webbing
is allowed to retract, the seat belt locking mechanism reverts
to normal operation.

fixing points and adjusters.
Avoid contaminating the webbing with polish, oil and
chemicals (see ‘Cleaning & vehicle care’).
Three tests for checking seat belts
1. With the seat belt fastened, give the webbing nearest the
buckle a quick pull - the buckle should remain securely
locked.
2. With the seat belt unfastened, unreel the webbing to the
limit of its travel. Check that unreeling is free from snags
and snatches and further check the webbing for visual
signs of wear or fraying.
Driver’s seat belt: Allow the webbing to retract,
checking that retraction is smooth, continuous and
complete.
Passenger seat belts: Allow the webbing to retract
approximately 200 mm (8 in), then give the tongue plate
a quick forward pull - the mechanism must lock
automatically and prevent further unreeling. Allow the
webbing to retract a further 200 mm and repeat the
process. Finally, allow the belt to retract fully and pull the
webbing out slightly to check that the locking
mechanism is disabled.
3. With the webbing half unreeled, hold the tongue plate
and give it a quick forward pull - the mechanism must
lock automatically and prevent any further unreeling.

Disposing of vehicles
If you sell your car, be sure to inform the new owner that the
vehicle is fitted with pre-tensioners, and make the new owner
aware that the pre-tensioners must be examined and replaced
by qualified personnel after a period of 15 years.
If your car is to be scrapped, unactivated pre-tensioners are
potentially very dangerous and must be safely deployed in a
controlled environment by qualified personnel, before it is
scrapped.

over bumps and potholes.
Operation of the airbag SRS is dependent entirely on the rate
at which the car’s passenger compartment changes speed as a
result of a collision. The circumstances affecting different
collisions (vehicle speed, angle of impact, type and size of
object hit, for example), vary considerably and will affect the
rate of acceleration or deceleration accordingly.
It follows, therefore, that significant superficial damage can
occur without the airbags deploying or, conversely, that a
relatively small amount of structural damage may cause the
airbags to be deployed.
Airbags will only deploy when they are required to
supplement the restraining force of the seat belts.

In the case of a severe frontal collision, both front airbags will
be deployed. In the case of a severe side collision, only the
side airbag and side head impact protection airbag on the
impact side of the vehicle will inflate. However, there may
also be impact conditions whereby one set of side and both
front airbags deploy at the same time, or where front and side
airbags respond separately as a result of a secondary impact
occurring after the initial collision has taken place.

Side airbags are designed to protect the thorax region of the
torso and will only deploy in the event of a severe side impact.
They will NOT inflate as a result of frontal or rear impacts
only.
In the event of a severe side collision, the airbag on the impact
side of the car breaks through the seat covering, rapidly
inflating to form a cushion between the occupant and the side
of the car. The airbag on the non-impact side of the car will
not be deployed
Note that a part of the outer side of the seat trim (identified
by the woven ‘airbag’ label) is specially constructed to enable
the airbag to deploy.

times will increase. As the starter motor may need to operate
for longer, it is essential that all unnecessary electrical
equipment is switched off while cranking.
Warming up
In the interest of fuel economy, it is advisable to drive the car
soon after starting. Remember that harsh acceleration, or
labouring the engine before the normal operational
temperature has been reached, can damage the engine.
Parking
After bringing the car to a stop, ALWAYS apply the
handbrake and select neutral (‘P’ for automatic transmission),
before releasing the foot brake and switching off the engine.
Towing - switching off
After periods of strenuous towing (particularly at high altitude
or in hot weather), it is good practice to allow the engine to
idle for a few minutes before switching off. This will enable
the engine cooling system to continue operating for a while
in order to reduce underbonnet heat.
RUNNING-IN
The engine, gearbox, brakes and tyres need time to ‘bed-in’
and adjust to the demands of everyday motoring. During the
first 600 miles (1,000 km), it is essential that you drive with
consideration for the running-in process and heed the
following advice:
•Do not allow the engine to exceed 3,000 rev/min in any
gear.
•Do not operate at full throttle in any gear.
•Do not allow the engine to labour in any gear.
•Avoid heavy braking where possible.
After the running-in distance has been completed, engine
speeds can be gradually increased.

pollution.
In a great many respects, however, criticism of the car and its
manufacturer is misplaced, for few industries have done more
to reduce pollution than the motor industry. Rover is no
exception. Your new Rover 75 has been designed with the
latest technology in order to minimise the environmental
impact of exhaust emissions. Even so, any further reduction
in emissions is in everyone’s interest and, to this end, there are
a number of ways in which you, the owner, can also make a
contribution.
Starting the engine
Although it is a common perception that cars should be
‘warmed up’ before being driven, this is not the case.
The majority of poisonous emissions are produced
immediately following a cold start and in the period while the
engine is warming up. Because the car warms up much faster
while it is being driven, it is less harmful to the environment
to drive away immediately after starting rather than to allow
the engine to idle.
Driving style
The way in which you drive your car has a significant bearing
on environment pollution, as well as affecting the amount of
fuel you use:
•Avoid full throttle acceleration
Steady, rather than rapid, acceleration uses considerably
less fuel, reduces exhaust pollutants and also minimises the
wear to mechanical components.
•Avoid driving at maximum speed
Fuel consumption, exhaust emissions and noise levels all
increase significantly at high speeds. For example,
travelling at 60 mph (100 km/h) uses up to 20 per cent less
fuel than driving at 70 mph (112 km/h).

100
g p g g p ,
provided it does NOT cause the engine to labour.
•Drive smoothly
Anticipating obstructions and slowing down well in
advance, avoids the need for unnecessary acceleration and
harsh braking. A smooth driving style not only reduces fuel
consumption, but can reduce the emission of poisonous
gases by two thirds or more.
•Switch off the engine when waiting in traffic
When it is obvious that the car will be stationary for several
minutes or more, and provided it is safe to do so, switch
off the engine. The impact on the environment of starting
the engine again will be less than the effect of allowing the
engine to idle for 45 seconds or more.
Maintenance
•Have the car regularly serviced
Regular servicing from a qualified technician will ensure
optimum fuel economy and minimise exhaust pollutants,
as well as effectively extending the service life of the car.
•Check the tyre pressures regularly
Under-inflated tyres increase the rolling resistance of the
car which, in turn, increases fuel consumption. Over or
under-inflated tyres wear out more rapidly and also have a
detrimental effect on the car’s handling characteristics.
•Do not carry unnecessary loads
The additional weight of unnecessary loads wastes fuel,
especially in stop/start conditions where the car is
frequently required to set off from stationary.
•Remove roof racks
The additional air resistance created by roof racks and
carriers increase drag and waste fuel (an unladen roof rack
can increase fuel consumption by as much as 2 mpg (0.3
l/100km).

The exhaust system incorporates a catalytic converter, which
converts poisonous exhaust emissions from the engine into
environmentally less harmful gases.
Catalytic converters are easily damaged through improper
use, particularly if the wrong fuel is used, so be sure to take
notice of the following precautions to minimise the chance of
accidental damage.
Fuel
•Use ONLY fuel recommended for your car.
•Never allow the car to run out of fuel - this could cause a
misfire which could damage the catalyst.
Starting
•Do not continue to operate the starter after a few failed
attempts, seek qualified assistance.
•Do not operate the starter if an engine misfire is suspected
and do not attempt to clear a misfire by pressing the
accelerator pedal.
•Do not attempt to push or tow start the car.

•Consult your dealer if you think your car is burning too
much oil, as this will progressively reduce catalyst
efficiency.
•If a misfire is suspected, or the car lacks power while
driving, provided the engine has reached its normal
operating temperature, it may be driven SLOWLY (at risk
of catalyst damage) to a Rover dealer.
•Do not run the engine with a spark plug or lead removed
or use any device that requires an insert into a spark plug.
•Do not drive on terrain likely to subject the underside of
the car to heavy impacts.
