Remote Control Handset
The remote control handset is supplied with the system and communicates with the overhead console via an infra-
red signal transmission. The handset has 50 buttons which control all DVD functions, with the exception of the volume
control. Volume control is performed by the rotary control supplied with the headphones or by the Audio head unit
volume control for the vehicle audio speakers.
The handset is powered by two, AAA size batteries. These are located behind a sliding cover on the rear face of the
handset. Battery life is approximately six months depending on usage.
To prolong the life of the handset, observe the following precautions:
lDo not leave the remote control near any heat sources or in direct sunlight. Store the handset in the vehicle
glovebox or door pocket to protect it from direct sunlight.
lAlways replace both batteries at the same time. Do not use an old battery with a new one and avoid mixing
brands of batteries.
lEnsure that batteries are inserted correctly with the '+' and '-' symbols on the batteries matching the '+' and '-'
symbols in the battery compartment. Do not charge the batteries or use re-chargeable batteries.
lIf the unit is to be unused for along period of time, remove the batteries from the handset.
If battery leakage occurs, remove and discard the defective batteries in line with local guidelines. Clean the interior of
the battery compartment using a mild household detergent on a damp soft cloth.

Operation
DVD Player Functionality
The following defines the functionality of the unit. Further details of system operation can found in the DVD System
Owner's Manual, Publication Part No. LRL0482, supplied with the system.
DVD Region Selection
The DVD player is capable of playing discs from any region. The DVD can only be set to play discs of one region at
a time. A code is entered using the remote control handset to set the unit to the required region. The unit is set to the
correct region on production and therefore this will not be required by either the dealer or the customer.
If the unit region is required to be changed for any reason, Land Rover Special Vehicles must be contacted for the
required code and procedure.
NOTE: The unit can be re-configured for region up to five times. After the fifth attempt to re-configure the region, the
unit will be locked in the fifth region that was programmed. This will require the unit to be returned to the manufacturer
to be reset. The manufacturer will charge a fee for this service.
DVD Player CD Audio Function
The DVD player can play audio CD's through the vehicle audio system. This allows the user to play additional CD's
without having to remove the CD autochanger cartridge.
The overhead console LCD monitor must be open to play audio CD's.. Normal audio CD functionality such as repeat,
random and track select etc. can be accessed using the remote control handset.
The DVD player in the overhead console will also function independently of the vehicle audio system, and operate as
an additional CD player. The rear seat passengers can listen to audio CD's via the three headphone sockets on the
overhead console and via the two radio/headphone amplifier units (if fitted), while the front seat passengers
simultaneously listen to CD's played on the vehicle audio system and CD autochanger.
DVD/CD Output using the Vehicle Audio System
To play the DVD/CD audio output from the overhead console through the vehicle audio speakers, the speaker button
on the overhead console or remote control handset must be pressed. 'Speaker On' appears on the LCD monitor and
the head unit CD functionality is suspended. The audio output from the overhead console will now be played from the
vehicle speaker system. The head unit volume control, tone control, Navigation announcements and mobile phone (if
fitted) will function as normal and override the DVD output. A second press of the speaker button will switch the audio
output back to the head unit. 'Speaker Off' will be displayed on the LCD monitor.
The overhead console will remember the selected speaker condition if the overhead console is switched off by closing
the monitor, the console switched off using the handset or accessory power removed from the overhead console.
Power Up Conditions
On application of accessory power, the overhead console will perform the following:
lIf no disc is in the DVD player, the LCD monitor will display a blue screen and enter 'AUX' input mode.
When a DVD or CD is inserted in the DVD player, the system will change to DVD input mode. The disc will
attempt to play but may be limited by the disc media. Some discs will play automatically, some will display a menu
and others require the user to start playback.
lIf a disc was in the DVD player and the system was in 'Play', 'Pause', 'FF' or 'Rew' when powered down, playback
will start when power is re-applied.
lIf a disc was in the DVD player and the system was in 'Stop' when powered down, the system will enter DVD
mode and a blue screen will be displayed on the LCD monitor.
lSpeaker selection will remain in the same state as when the accessory power was removed.
Engine Cranking
If the unit is playing a DVD or CD when the ignition switch is moved to position III (engine crank), the system will stop
playing while the engine is cranking. Playback will resume at the point the playback was stopped when the ignition
switch is returned to position I or II.

NAVIGATION SYSTEM
87-2 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Description
General
The navigation system provides audio and visual route guidance to help the driver reach a selected destination. The
system is an optional fit consisting of a Traffic Pro navigation computer and antenna, manufactured by Harman/
Becker Automotive Systems, which are fitted in place of the In Car Entertainment (ICE) head unit and antenna.
Compact Disc (CD) and radio functions are incorporated into the navigation computer.
The navigation system allows the driver to choose between the shortest and fastest routes between the vehicle's
current position and a selected destination, and to select a stopover point in the journey and a route that avoids
motorways, ferries and toll roads. Directions to Points Of Interest (POI) e.g. airports, hospitals, petrol stations etc,
either local, national or in another country, can also be selected. A traffic jam function enables the driver to request
diversion instructions, around an obstructed part of the selected route, during the journey. A Traffic Management
Control (TMC) function, currently only available in some European countries, monitors traffic broadcasts and
automatically selects an alternative route during the journey if the original route is effected by a traffic jam, accident
or road works etc.
The position of the vehicle is determined by the navigation computer using a combination of vehicle sensor inputs and
radio signals from the 24 Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites orbiting the earth. The position of the vehicle is
then plotted on a digitised map, loaded into the navigation computer from a CD-ROM, to determine the journey route
and provide the route guidance.
The GPS satellite signals are used for initial determination of the vehicle's position and periodic position updates. The
vehicle sensor inputs are used to monitor the vehicle's direction of travel and distance travelled between position
updates from the GPS satellite signals. The vehicle sensor inputs consist of:
lA vehicle speed signal from the ABS ECU, to monitor the distance travelled and for automatic volume control.
lA reverse gear signal from the selector and inhibitor switch of the automatic gearbox, or reverse gear switch of
the manual gearbox, to enable the navigation computer to differentiate between forward and rearward movement
of the vehicle.
lA gyro in the navigation computer, to monitor changes of direction, i.e. steering inputs.
The signal from each GPS satellite contains information about satellite position, almanac data and time (almanac data
is the current status of the satellite). Signals from between five and 11 of the GPS satellites can be received at a given
point on the earth's surface at any one time. The number and quality of separate GPS satellite signals received also
varies with vehicle location. In hilly or tree lined areas, built up areas with tall buildings, multi-storey car parks,
garages, tunnels, bridges and during heavy rain/thunderstorms, signal reception of some or all of the GPS satellites
will be poor or non existent.
A minimum of three separate GPS satellite signals are required for the navigation computer to calculate a three
dimensional (3D) positional fix. When only two signals are being received, the navigation computer will calculate a
less accurate two dimensional (2D) positional fix. The more widely dispersed that the GPS satellites are, the more
accurate the positional fix. The navigation computer can store information from a maximum of 12 GPS satellites at
any one time. When more than three signals are stored, the navigation computer selects the three most widely
dispersed signals for the position calculation.
GPS Antenna and diplexer unit
The GPS antenna is installed at the rear of the roof on the centreline. A diplexer unit on the underside of the GPS
antenna amplifies the radio signals received from the GPS satellites and transmits them through separate dedicated
co-axial cable to the navigation computer for processing.
