EMERGENCY TOWING
CAUTION: The New Range Rover has
permanent four-wheel drive. The following
instructions must be adhered to when
towing:-
Towing the vehicle on four wheels
If it is necessary to recover the vehicle by towing on
all four wheels, ’Transfer neutral’ MUST be selected.
1. With the starter key removed, insert a fuse of 5
amps or more in fuse position ’11’ in the RH seat
fuse box.
2. Turn the starter switch to position ’2’; the transfer
box will now automatically select neutral.
3. Wait until the message centre displays
’TRANSFER NEUTRAL’ and then turn the
starter switch off, position ’0’.
4. Turn the starter switch to position ’1’ to unlock
the steering and leave in this position while the
vehicle is being towed.
5. Secure tow rope to the front towing eye.
6. Release the parking brake.
CAUTION: Power assistance for braking
and steering systems will not be provided
without the engine running. Greater pedal
pressure will be required to apply the brakes, the
steering wheel will require greater effort to turn
the front wheels.
The vehicle tow connection should be used only
in normal road conditions.
CAUTION: DO NOT remove the starter key
or turn the switch to position ’0’ when the
vehicle is in motion.
7. To reactivate the transfer box after towing, turn
the starter switch off to position ’0’ and remove
the fuse from position ’11’. On automatic
vehicles the transfer box will automatically
engage the Low or High gear range.
8. On manual vehicles, first press the range
change switch. The transfer box will then engage
the Low or High gear range.
Suspended tow by breakdown vehicle
CAUTION: To prevent vehicle damage,
front or rear propeller shaft MUST be
removed, dependant upon which axle is
being trailed.
9. To facilitate reassembly, first mark the propeller
shaft drive flanges at transfer box and axle.
10. Remove propeller shaft fixings and lift shaft from
vehicle.
11. If the front axle is to be trailed, turn ignition key
to position ’1’ to release the steering lock.
CAUTION: If the rear axle is to be raised,
the steering wheel and/or linkage MUST be
secured in a straight ahead position. DO
NOT use the steering lock for this purpose.

INFORMATION
TRANSPORTING THE VEHICLE BY TRAILER
If the vehicle should require transporting on a trailer or
the back of a lorry, the air suspension must be set to
’ACCESS’ before being lashed.
See FRONT
SUSPENSION, Description and operation.
Lashing eyes are provided on the front and rear
chassis cross members to facilitate the securing of the
vehicle, as shown.
CAUTION: DO NOT secure lashing hooks
or trailer fixings to any other part of the
vehicle.
CAUTION: If the air suspension cannot be
set to the ’ACCESS’ position, then the
vehicle must be lashed by its wheels and
not the lashing eyes.
Install vehicle on the trailer and apply park brake.
Select neutral in main gearbox; this will prevent
damage to the parking pawl of the automatic gearbox.
