System for Monitoring Tire Pressure (TPMS)

Tire Pressure Monitoring System

The TPMS constantly monitors tire pressure, including the full-size spare tire. It does not monitor the pressure in the temporary spare tire. See page 346 for information on replacing a wheel with a temporary spare.

The TPMS warns of low tire pressure but does not inflate the tires. Tire pressure should be regularly checked with an accurate gauge when the tires are cold.

The TPMS does not detect tire damage. Regularly inspect your vehicle's tires, especially when driving off-road.

When inflating tires, be careful not to bend or damage the TPMS valve stems. The pump hose should be screwed onto the tire valve straight, without tilting.

Note: Non-certified aftermarket equipment may interfere with the normal operation of this system. If this occurs, the message TYRE PRESSURE MONITORING FAULT will appear on the information panel.

Note: Installing tires of a different type may negatively affect the TPMS performance. Always replace tires according to recommendations.

TPMS-equipped wheels can be visually identified by the external metal locknut and valve stem (1). Wheels on Land Rover vehicles not equipped with TPMS have rubber valve stems (2).

Note: For every tire change, a special service kit should be used for each TPMS valve stem.

Checking Tire Pressure

Tire pressure should be regularly checked on cold tires and adjusted as necessary to achieve the required value. The presence of TPMS does not eliminate the need to check tire pressure as part of the vehicle's safety checks. See page 337, TIRE PRESSURE.

The tire pressure warning light (see page 69, TIRE PRESSURE WARNING LIGHT (YELLOW)) illuminates if the pressure in one or more tires is significantly below normal. A corresponding message will appear on the information panel. Stop as soon as possible, check the tires, and inflate them to the recommended pressure according to the vehicle's load.

The TPMS also monitors the pressure in the full-size spare tire. If the pressure in the spare tire is not normal, the display will show the message CHECK SPARE TYRE PRESSURE and the corresponding warning light will illuminate.

Checking Tire Pressure

Tire pressure information can be displayed on the instrument panel. Tire pressure values can be found in the instrument panel menu. For more information, see page 61, INSTRUMENT PANEL MENU.

When this option is selected, the last known tire pressures will be displayed, along with the recommended cold tire pressures (in parentheses).

Note: If any wheel or tire has been removed, the displayed pressure values may be incorrect. Drive for at least 15 minutes to recalibrate the system.

Finding Recommended Tire Pressures

The instrument panel display can show recommended cold tire pressures. A tire pressure reference table can be found in the instrument panel menu. For more information, see page 61, INSTRUMENT PANEL MENU.

Depending on the vehicle's equipment, various parameters may be displayed, reflecting different driving conditions, such as high-speed driving or a heavily loaded vehicle.

Tire pressure displayed on the instrument panel will be incorrect if the vehicle is fitted with wheels or tires not approved by Land Rover.

Vehicle Loading

When the vehicle is delivered, tire pressures will correspond to the values indicated on the tire sidewall. See page 337, TIRE PRESSURE. If the tire pressure is reduced to the low load (Comfort) setting, the TPMS must be adjusted according to the recommended tire pressure and vehicle load.

The Comfort setting provides increased comfort during trips, provided the maximum load of passengers and luggage is not exceeded. See page 337, TIRE PRESSURE.

TPMS levels can be set via the Tyre pressure check and Tyre pressure monitor menus.

Note: The TPMS setting must correspond to the current tire pressure value.

Note: Ensure that the tire pressure corresponds to the vehicle's load.

Replacing the Full-Size Spare Wheel and Tire

The system automatically recognizes any changes in wheel position. For the system to recognize a wheel replacement, the vehicle must remain stationary for 15 minutes during the replacement process. After driving at speeds above 25 km/h (18 mph), the low tire pressure warning should disappear within approximately 5 minutes.

Replacing the Wheel with a Temporary Spare

After installing the temporary spare wheel, the system will automatically recognize the wheel replacement. Approximately 10 minutes of driving at speeds over 25 km/h (18 mph) will display the message FRONT[REAR] RIGHT[LEFT] TYRE PRESSURE NOT MONITORED, and the warning light will illuminate.

The warning light will first flash, then illuminate continuously. Prolonged driving with the temporary spare wheel will display the message TYRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM FAULT.

This sequence of TPMS indicators will activate each time the ignition is switched on until the temporary spare wheel is replaced with a full-size wheel with a TPMS sensor.

Note: Before checking the TPMS, replace the temporary spare wheel with a full-size wheel.

Tire Repair Kit

Tire Repair Kit

If you have any doubts about performing these instructions, consult your dealer or authorized workshop before carrying out the repair.

Your vehicle may not be equipped with a spare wheel. In this case, a tire repair kit will be located in its place. The tire repair kit can be used to repair only 1 tire. It is crucial to read the following instructions before attempting a tire repair.

The tire repair kit can repair most punctures up to 6 mm (1/4 inch) in diameter within the tread area.

Note: The sealant used in the kit has an expiry date indicated on the top of the canister. Replace the canister before its expiry date.

Safety Information for Using the Tire Repair Kit

Some tire damage can only be partially repaired or cannot be repaired at all. The possibility of repair depends on the extent and nature of the damage. Loss of tire pressure can significantly affect vehicle safety.

Do not use the repair kit for tires that have been damaged by driving on a flat tire.

A. Tread area.

Always use the kit only for repairing damage within the tread area (A).

Do not use the kit for repairing sidewall damage.

If a repaired tire is fitted to the vehicle, the driving speed must not exceed 80 km/h (50 mph).

The maximum distance allowed when driving on a repaired tire is 200 km (125 miles).

If a repaired tire is fitted, drive the vehicle with caution, avoiding sudden braking or maneuvers.

Use the tire repair kit only on the vehicle with which it was supplied.

Do not use this kit for any purpose other than tire repair.

Do not leave the kit unattended when in use.

Use the tire repair kit at temperatures between -30°C and +70°C.

Always ensure that children and animals are kept at a safe distance from the kit during use.

Do not stand close to the operating compressor.

Before inflating, check the condition of the tire sidewalls. If cracks, bulges, or other similar damage are found, do not attempt to inflate the tire. During compressor operation, do not stand next to the tire being inflated. Observe the tire sidewall. If cracks, bulges, or other similar damage are found, switch off the compressor and release the air through the valve. Do not use this wheel anymore.

Check the tire sidewall during inflation. If cracks, bulges, or similar damage appear, switch off the compressor and release the air from the tire. Do not use this wheel anymore.

Using the Tire Repair Kit

Do not allow the sealant, which contains natural latex, to come into contact with skin.

If the tire pressure does not reach 1.8 bar (26 psi, 180 kPa) within 7 minutes, it indicates severe tire damage. Temporary repair is not possible, and driving the vehicle is prohibited until the tire is replaced.

Before attempting a tire repair, find a safe place to park the vehicle, as far as possible from the traffic flow.

Ensure the electronic parking brake (EPB) is engaged and the gear selector is in Park (P).

Do not attempt to remove foreign objects such as nails, screws, etc., from the tire.

When using the compressor, do not switch off the engine unless the vehicle is in an enclosed or poorly ventilated space where it could cause suffocation.

To prevent overheating, do not operate the compressor continuously for more than 10 minutes.

Note: All occupants of the vehicle must be informed that the vehicle is fitted with a temporary repaired tire. They must also be informed that special precautions must be observed when driving a vehicle with a repaired tire.

Repair Procedure

Before inflating, check the condition of the tire sidewalls. If there are cracks, bulges, or other similar damage, do not attempt to inflate the tire. Do not stand next to the wheel while the compressor is operating. Observe the tire sidewall. If cracks, bulges, or other similar damage are found, switch off the compressor and release the air through the valve. Do not use this wheel anymore.

If the tire pressure does not reach 1.8 bar (26 psi, 180 kPa) within 10 minutes (maximum), it indicates irreparable tire damage. Temporary repair is not possible, and driving the vehicle is prohibited until the tire is replaced.

1. Open the tire repair kit and peel off the sticker indicating the maximum speed. Stick the sticker on the instrument panel where the driver can see it. Do not cover the instruments or indicators with the sticker.
2. Unwind the compressor power cord and the inflation hose.
3. Remove the orange cap from the sealant canister and the canister cap.
4. Screw the canister tightly onto the receiver (clockwise). Note: When screwing the canister onto the receiver, the canister's sealing membrane is punctured. Once installed, the receiver cannot be removed due to the latch.
5. Remove the valve stem cap from the damaged tire.
6. Remove the protective cap from the inflation hose. Connect the inflation hose to the tire valve, ensuring a secure connection.
7. Ensure the compressor switch is in the OFF position (0), and insert the power cord plug into the auxiliary power socket, see page 122, AUXILIARY POWER SOCKET. Start the engine, see page 145, STARTING THE ENGINE.
8. Turn on the compressor by setting the switch to position (I).
9. Inflate the tire to a pressure of 1.8 bar (26 psi, 180 kPa) up to 3.5 bar (51 psi, 350 kPa). Note: When injecting sealant through the tire valve, the pressure may rise to 6 bar (87 psi, 600 kPa). The pressure will drop again after approximately 30 seconds.
10. During inflation, briefly switch off the compressor to check the tire pressure on the gauge fitted to the compressor. Note: The tire inflation time should not exceed 10 minutes. If after 10 minutes (maximum) the tire pressure has not reached the minimum value, the tire should not be used.
11. Switch off the compressor when the required tire pressure is reached. The engine can then be switched off.
12. Remove the power plug from the auxiliary power socket.
13. Disconnect the hose from the tire valve, unscrewing it as quickly as possible (counter-clockwise).
14. Replace the hose's protective cap and the tire valve cap.
15. Securely place the tire repair kit (including canister and receiver caps) in the vehicle. After driving no more than 10 km (6 miles), you will need to check the tire pressure, so ensure the kit is easily accessible.
16. Immediately drive the vehicle for no more than 10 km (6 miles). This will allow the sealant to coat the inner surface of the tire and seal the puncture.

Checking Tire Pressure After Repair

If you notice vibrations, abnormal steering response, or noises while driving, reduce speed immediately. Drive with extreme caution and at low speed to the nearest safe place where you can stop. Inspect the tire and check the pressure. If there are signs of damage or deformation, or if the pressure is below 1.3 bar (19 psi, 130 kPa), do not continue driving.

Tire Repair Kit (Continued)

Consult a tire fitting workshop, dealer, or authorized workshop for advice on replacing the tire after using the repair kit.

1. Drive a maximum of 3 km (2 miles), then stop in a safe location. Visually inspect the tire.
2. Remove the repair kit from the vehicle.
3. Tightly screw the connecting hose to the tire valve.
4. Check the tire pressure using the gauge.
5. If the pressure in the repaired tire exceeds 1.3 bar (19 psi, 130 kPa), adjust the pressure to the required value. If there are signs of damage or deformation, or if the tire pressure is below 1.3 bar, do not continue driving.
6. Ensure the compressor switch is in the OFF position (0), and insert the power cord plug into the auxiliary power socket. Turn on the ignition.
7. Turn on the compressor (I) and inflate the tire to the required pressure. See page 337, TIRE PRESSURE.
8. To check the tire pressure, switch off the compressor and check the gauge reading.
9. If the tire pressure is too high, release the necessary amount of air using the pressure release valve with the compressor switched off.
10. After inflating the tire to the required pressure, switch off the compressor and remove the power plug from the auxiliary power socket.
11. The use of sealant from the tire repair kit may cause erroneous messages and incorrect readings from the tire pressure monitoring system. Therefore, use the tire pressure gauge from the tire repair kit to check and adjust the pressure in the damaged tire.
12. Unscrew the hose connector from the tire valve, replace the valve cap and the connecting hose's protective cap.
13. Ensure the tire repair kit is securely stowed in the vehicle.
14. Consult a tire fitting workshop, dealer, or authorized workshop for tire replacement. Before removing the tire, inform the technicians about the repair performed using the repair kit.
15. After installing a new tire, the inflation hose, receiver, and sealant canister should be replaced.

Empty sealant canisters can be disposed of with regular household waste. Sealant canisters with residual sealant and the inflation hose must be disposed of in accordance with local waste disposal regulations. Contact a tire fitting workshop or dealer/authorized workshop for disposal.

Wheel Replacement

Safety Precautions When Replacing a Wheel

Before lifting the vehicle or replacing a wheel, read and follow these instructions:

TOWING THE VEHICLE OFF-ROAD

If towing is to be carried out using the towing lugs off-road, you must complete an off-road recovery training course. More information on off-road driving training can be found at http://www.landroverexperience.com.

TRANSPORTING THE VEHICLE

The vehicle should be towed or transported on a specially designed trailer.

For towing and properly securing the vehicle, always use the services of qualified professionals.

CAUTION! Exercise extreme caution when transporting or towing the vehicle. Serious injury or death may result.

Towing the Vehicle (Continued)

! If the vehicle's electronic systems are functioning, select the ride height for the air suspension before securing the vehicle to the tow truck or trailer. See page 162, RIDE HEIGHT.

TOWING THE VEHICLE WITH ALL FOUR WHEELS ON THE GROUND

The vehicle can only be towed if all 4 wheels are off the ground, i.e., using a tow truck with a full lift. If it is impossible to tow the vehicle using the correct full lift method, in an emergency, towing the vehicle on all four wheels for a short distance is permitted. Observe the following instructions:

! Before commencing towing, the recovery specialist MUST engage the park lock disengagement mechanism. Instructions for this procedure are provided in a separate service manual for service personnel.

If the gearbox is shifted to Neutral (N) and the engine is switched off, the gearbox will automatically engage the Park (P) mode after 10 minutes. If the park lock disengagement mechanism is not engaged at this time and the vehicle is towed, the gearbox may be seriously damaged. There is also a risk to personal safety.

If it is not possible to start the engine while towing, the brake booster will not function. Therefore, more effort will be required for braking, and the braking distance will be significantly increased.

If the battery is to be disconnected, the steering column must be unlocked beforehand. The steering column cannot be unlocked after the battery has been disconnected.

Before towing, always check that the steering column is not locked.

Towing the Vehicle (Continued)

• Tow the vehicle only in a forward direction, with all four wheels on the ground. Towing in reverse or using a partial lift with two wheels on the ground will cause serious damage to the gearbox.

Towing the vehicle for distances over 50 km (30 miles) is prohibited. Do not exceed a speed of 50 km/h (30 mph). Towing for longer distances or at higher speeds may cause serious damage to the gearbox.

The vehicle must not be towed if the gearbox is not in Neutral (N) or if the electronic differential lock is engaged.

To prevent damage to the vehicle, follow this procedure precisely:

1. Secure the tow truck's towing attachment to the front towing lug of the vehicle being towed. See page 362, TOWING LUGS.
2. With the electronic parking brake (EPB) engaged, switch on the ignition and ensure the steering column lock is disengaged.
3. Press the brake pedal and shift the selector to Neutral (N).
4. Engage the park lock disengagement mechanism.
5. Leave the electronic key in a safe place in the vehicle.
6. Before starting to tow, switch off the EPB.
7. Leaving the ignition on for an extended period will discharge the battery.

AFTER TOWING WITH ALL FOUR WHEELS ON THE GROUND

1. Engage the electronic parking brake (EPB).
2. Switch on the ignition and press the brake pedal.
3. Shift the selector to Park (P).
4. Disengage the park lock disengagement mechanism.
5. Switch off the ignition and remove the electronic key from the vehicle.
6. Disconnect the tow truck's towing attachments from the front towing lug and replace the cover.

! When disconnecting towing equipment, exercise special precautions. The vehicle may roll if there is a gradient, which could lead to serious injury.

After a Collision

BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE OR DRIVING

If the vehicle has been in an accident, it should be inspected by a dealer or authorized workshop, or by qualified specialists, before starting the engine or driving.

EVENT DATA RECORDING

During a collision or emergency situation, Event Data Recorders (EDRs) can collect and store data. These records may be useful in investigating such an incident. The EDR system may record data about the vehicle's dynamics and safety systems, potentially including the following:

• How various vehicle systems were activated.
• Whether the driver and passengers were wearing seat belts.
• How far the accelerator and brake pedals were pressed (if at all).
• The speed at which the vehicle was traveling.

To read this information, special equipment must be connected directly to the logging modules. Land Rover does not take any action to obtain EDR data without the owner's consent, except by court order, law enforcement agency, or other legally authorized party acting on a lawful basis. Access to the mentioned data by other interested parties must be carried out without involving Land Rover.

Note: Personal data (name, gender, age, location of accident) is not recorded.

PARAMETER RECORDING

The onboard system records and stores current diagnostic parameters of your vehicle. This includes data on the operation and status of various systems and modules, such as the engine, throttle, steering, or braking system.

For proper diagnosis and subsequent servicing of your vehicle, Land Rover technicians and authorized workshops can access diagnostic information by directly connecting to the vehicle.
