2023 Land Rover Defender Steering Wheel

ADJUSTING THE STEERING WHEEL

WARNING
Never adjust the steering column while the vehicle is in motion. Doing so may cause a loss of control, potentially resulting in an accident.
WARNING
Do not use steering wheel-mounted security devices on vehicles with electrically adjustable steering columns. Movement of the steering column could result in damage to the vehicle or possible serious injury or death to the occupant.

Manually adjustable steering column:

  1. Move the steering column lever (1) downwards.
  2. Move the steering column to the desired position.
  3. Return the steering column lever to the home position, flush with the column cowl, to lock the column in the desired position.

Electrically adjustable steering column:

Move the steering column control (1) up or down to adjust the tilt or height position. Move the steering column control forward or rearward to adjust reach.

ENTRY AND EXIT MODE

With the steering column control in the AUTO position, the steering column and driver’s seat move to provide easier entry and exit from the vehicle.

On opening the driver’s door, the system raises the steering column to the highest position. The system lowers the driver’s seat to a lower position, assisting with exit from the vehicle. When the driver’s door is closed and the ignition is switched on, the system returns the driver’s seat and steering column to the previous positions.

NOTES
If the driver’s seat or steering column are adjusted during entry or exit operation, automatic movement stops.

To prevent automatic movement of the driver’s seat and steering column, turn the control clockwise to the manual position.

NOTES
If the steering column control is moved away from AUTO when the driver’s seat and steering column are in the exit position, the system resets. The driver’s seat and steering column move back to their previous positions when the driver’s door is closed and the ignition is switched on.

POWER STEERING

The instrument panel displays a warning message and a warning lamp to indicate a fault with the power steering system.

Power assistance may be reduced to protect the system if overheating is detected. Overheating can be caused by excessive steering inputs or high ambient temperatures.

Full steering assistance should return when the system has cooled.

The steering wheel may vibrate to protect against freezing caused by water around the steering system.

If full steering assistance does not return, consult a retailer/authorized repairer.

HEATED STEERING WHEEL

To activate the heated steering wheel, press the button (1). Press again to switch off.
