2022 Land Rover Range Rover Exiting The Vehicle
SINGLE LOCKING
When exiting the vehicle, always make sure of the following: Park (P) gear is selected. The engine is switched off. The Electric Parking Brake (EPB) is applied. The smart key is removed from the vehicle. This is to protect the safety of those inside and outside the vehicle.
No modifications or additions should be made to the security system. Such changes could cause the system to malfunction.
Press the lock button on the smart key, briefly, to lock the vehicle and arm the perimeter (exterior) alarm. The hazard warning lights flash to confirm.
Single locking secures the vehicle and prevents the doors from being opened from the outside. The doors may still be unlocked and opened from inside the vehicle.
Once armed, the alarm activates if:
- The hood, tailgate or door is opened.
- The engine START/STOP button is pressed without a valid smart key present.
- The vehicle’s battery is disconnected.
- An attempt is made to disconnect the alarm’s siren.
- An attempt is made to disconnect the battery backup sounder.
KEYLESS LOCKING
The smart key may not be detected if it is inside a metal container, or is shielded by a device with a back-lit LCD screen. For example, a smartphone, laptop, including when inside a laptop bag, or a games console. Keep the smart key clear of such devices when attempting keyless entry, keyless locking, or push button starting.
Loose coins, in the same pocket as the smart key, can act as a shield and may affect its detection.
Keyless locking activates only if the smart key is detected outside the vehicle. If no smart key is present, locking does not occur.
The vehicle does not lock automatically.
To operate keyless locking:
- Lock sensor area: To lock the vehicle, only touch the lock sensor once, without grabbing the door handle. The hazard warning lights flash once to confirm locking.
Do not grip the door handle while touching the sensor. Doing so prevents the vehicle from locking.
When using keyless locking, the vehicle does not lock when:
- Any door(s) is open.
- The hood is open.
- The tailgate is not fully closed.
- The ignition is switched on.
No audible mislock error warning is given. The hazard warning lights do not flash and the power-fold mirrors, if enabled, do not fold in.
Make sure that the ignition is switched off, and that all of the doors, the hood and the tailgate are closed properly. Lock the vehicle again. If the mislock persists, consult a retailer/authorized repairer.
LOCK CONFIRMATION
If uncertain about the vehicle’s locked and armed status, press the lock button on the smart key. With keyless entry, touch a lock button on an exterior door handle. The hazard warning lights flash once to indicate and confirm the current lock status. One short flash means that the vehicle is single locked.
MISLOCK
When locking the vehicle with the smart key, a mislock can occur if:
- One or more of the doors, the hood, or the tailgate is not fully closed.
- The ignition is switched on.
- A smart key is left inside the vehicle.
If any of the above are present, the vehicle does not lock and an audible mislock error warning sounds. The hazard warning lights do not flash and the power-fold mirrors (if enabled) do not fold in. Check that all of the doors, the hood, and the tailgate are closed properly. Make sure the ignition is switched off and lock the vehicle again. If the mislock persists, consult a retailer/authorized repairer.
Operating the interior or exterior door handles, while attempting to unlock, lock, or change the child lock status of the vehicle including drive-away locking, may cause the security system to ignore any unlock, lock, or child lock requests.
DOOR LOCKS AND HANDLES
While a door is open, the locking latch is exposed. Depending on specification, the vehicle may be fitted with a soft close feature. The soft close feature draws the doors closed to their fully latched position. Do not attempt to manually close the latch as it may automatically soft-close and trap items or body parts.
- Lock button: Press to lock. With all of the doors closed, press a lock button to lock all of the doors.
- Unlock button: Press to unlock. Press an unlock button to unlock all of the doors and the tailgate. Alternatively, pull either front door handle (3) once to unlock all of the doors.
- Door handle: Pull to unlock and open a front door. To unlock a rear door, pull the individual door handle.
NOTES
If the vehicle is locked with the smart key, operating an interior door handle unlocks only that door. If the door is opened, the alarm sounds.
NOTESThe rear door child safety locks inhibit the rear door lock and unlock buttons and the interior door handles. See CHILD SAFETY LOCKS.
CLEAR EXIT MONITOR
Clear Exit Monitor is a passenger aid only. It remains the responsibility of the user to open the door with due care and attention. Make sure the door is opened in a manner which is safe for the vehicle, its occupants, and other road users. Failure to open doors safely could cause serious injury or damage to the vehicle.
Make sure that the Clear Exit warning icons and indicators are not obscured by stickers or other objects. Obscuration of the Clear Exit warning icons will impair the user’s ability to utilise the feature, which could cause damage to the vehicle.
Do not attach stickers or objects to the rear bumper as these could impair the operation of the Clear Exit Monitor feature.
Clear Exit Monitor warns of another vehicle, or moving object approaching from behind when the door has been unlatched from the inside. Sensors in the rear bumper monitor nearby traffic. If the system determines that opening the door could be unsafe, due to passing traffic, it gives a visible warning to the occupant. The system does not prevent the door from being opened. Clear Exit Monitor is fitted to rear doors only.
The Clear Exit Monitor system activates only when the door has been unlatched. The icons illuminate as follows:
- Illuminates white to indicate that the system is active.
- Illuminates amber if the system determines that it could be unsafe to open the door, due to passing traffic.
The icons extinguish after the door has been closed.
The Clear Exit Monitor system may not be able to detect all approaching traffic in all circumstances. Operation relies on the sensor’s ability to detect moving objects and this may be affected by road and weather conditions, and, also, if:
- Vehicles approach very quickly from behind.
- The sensors are impaired by mud, rain, frost, ice, snow, damage, accessories, or stickers.
- The sensor’s ‘line of sight’ is obscured by objects, such as other vehicles parked particularly wide or close to the vehicle.
Under these circumstances, as well as loss of functionality, reduced warning times may be experienced.
Clear exit monitor is only active below vehicle speeds of 3 mph (5 km/h). The system remains active for 3 minutes after the ignition is switched off.
DEACTIVATING THE ALARM WHEN TRIGGERED
If the alarm activates, it can be deactivated by any one of the following methods:
- Press the unlock button on the smart key. See UNLOCKING THE VEHICLE.
- Open a door using keyless entry.
- Press the START/STOP button with a valid smart key positioned correctly. See ENGINE START BACKUP.
The cause of the last alarm activation can be displayed in the instrument panel. See INSTRUMENT PANEL MENU.
EMERGENCY LOCKING
Do not leave the emergency key blade in the vehicle at any point during the emergency locking procedure.
In the event of a fault with the alarm and/or locking system, manually secure the vehicle. Lock all of the doors via the driver’s door key barrel.
The emergency key blade is required for this procedure. See UNLOCKING THE VEHICLE.
Using the emergency key:
- Make sure all apertures are closed and insert the emergency key blade into the key barrel of the driver door.
- Turn the emergency key blade 90° clockwise.
- All of the doors single lock and access to the loadspace is inhibited.
- Pull the exterior door handles to check that the doors are locked. When doing so, make sure any valid smart keys are at least 2 m away from the doors.
If the issue persists, consult a retailer/authorised repairer for rectification as soon as possible.
In the event of the battery discharging, each of the doors must be locked manually.
The emergency key blade is required for this procedure. See UNLOCKING THE VEHICLE.
Using the emergency key:
- Open a door and locate the access cover of the emergency lock on the edge of the door. The cover has an embossed lock icon. Insert the emergency key blade into the cover’s slot. Rotate the cover counter-clockwise to first release it. Pull the cover to remove it from the door. Keep the lock’s access cover safe.
- Insert the emergency key blade firmly into the emergency lock. A firm push activates the door’s locking mechanism. Remove the emergency key blade.
- Refit the access cover of the emergency lock. Rotate the cover clockwise to secure it firmly.
- Close the door and check that it is locked.
Repeat the procedure for all other unlocked doors.
