LIFTING AND TOWING
08-2
Reverse procedure when removing vehicle from
stands.
Hydraulic ramps
Use only a 'drive on' type ramp which supports a
vehicle by it's own road wheels. If a 'wheel free'
condition is required, use a 'drive on' ramp
incorporating a 'wheel free' system that supports
under axle casings. Alternatively, place vehicle on a
firm, flat floor and support on axle stands.
TOWING
Towing
The vehicle has permanent four wheel drive. The
following towing instructions must be adhered
to:
Towing on 4 wheels with driver
Turn ignition key to position '1' to release steering
lock.
Select neutral in main gearbox and transfer gearbox.
Secure tow rope, chain or cable to towing eye.
Release the handbrake.
The brake servo and power assisted steering
system will not be functional without the engine
running. Greater pedal pressure will be required
to apply the brakes, the steering system will
require greater effort to turn the front road
wheels. The vehicle tow connection should be
used only in normal road conditions, 'snatch'
recovery should be avoided.Suspended tow
To prevent vehicle damage, front or rear
propeller shaft MUST BE removed, dependent
upon which axle is being trailed.
Mark propeller shaft drive flanges at transfer box and
axles with identification lines to enable the propeller
shaft to be refitted in its original position.
Remove the propeller shaft fixings, remove the shaft
from the vehicle.
If the front axle is to be trailed turn ignition key to
position '1' to release steering lock.
The steering wheel and/or linkage must be
secured in a straight ahead position. DO NOT use
the steering lock mechanism for this purpose.
Towing eyes
The towing eyes at the front and rear of the vehicle
are designed for vehicle recovery purposes only and
must NOT be used to tow a trailer or caravan.
Front:A single towing eye, set behind a removable
panel in the front spoiler. DO NOT use the front
lashing rings for towing.

REAR SUSPENSION
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 64-21
Normal ride height
When the vehicle is stationary, a door is open and the ignition is off, the SLS system will allow the rear of the vehicle
to lower to within 20 mm of the normal ride height as load is removed from the vehicle. The SLS system will only
operate the compressor to raise the rear of the vehicle when the engine is running, unless requested using the remote
handset.
Off-road mode (ORM)
ORM is used to raise the rear of the vehicle from normal ride height to the ORM ride height of 100 mm between the
tip of the bump stop and the axle.
ORM is activated by depressing the ORM switch located on the fascia for not less than 0.5 seconds. With the engine
running, all doors closed and the vehicle speed below 18 mph (30 km/h), the audible warning will sound once and the
ORM warning lamp in the instrument pack will start to flash when the switch is released. The compressor will be
started and the air control valves will be energised by the ECU to inflate the air springs and raise the rear of the vehicle.
When the full ORM height is reached, the ECU will terminate compressor operation and close the air valves. The ORM
warning lamp will stop flashing and remain continuously illuminated to inform the driver that the SLS system is in ORM.
When ORM is no longer required, depressing the ORM switch for not less than 0.5 seconds with all doors closed will
lower the SLS to normal ride height. The audible warning will sound once and the ORM warning lamp will flash as the
suspension lowers. The ECU energises the air control valves and the exhaust valve to release air pressure from the
air springs. When standard ride height is reached the ORM warning lamp will extinguish and the ECU will de-energise
the air control valves and the exhaust valve solenoids.
If the SLS is in ORM and the vehicle speed exceeds 18 mph (30 km/h), the ECU will lower the SLS to standard ride
height. The driver will be informed of this by an audible warning and the ORM warning lamp flashing as the suspension
lowers. When normal ride height is achieved, the ORM warning lamp will extinguish.
At sea level, the time to change the SLS from normal ride height to ORM or visa versa will take between 15 and 20
seconds.
If the ECU determines that conditions are not correct for SLS operation, i.e.; axle articulation or system fault, the
audible warning will sound three times to inform the driver that the ORM request has not been granted.
Extended mode
The extended mode is automatically operated by the ECU and requires no input from the driver. Extended mode
operates when the chassis is grounded causing the rear wheels to spin. This information is generated by the ABS
function of the SLABS ECU.
When the ECU senses that the chassis is grounded and the vehicle speed is less than 6 mph (10 km/h), the ECU will
operate the compressor and energise the air control valves for 25 seconds to raise the rear of the vehicle. This
operates irrespective of the mode that the SLS system is in at that time. To inform the driver, the ORM warning lamp
will flash continuously at all times that the system is in extended mode.
The driver can exit the extended mode by depressing the ORM switch for not less than 0.5 seconds or by exceeding
8 mph (13 km/h).
Remote handset SLS control
The remote handset is an accessory item which allows the SLS to be operated between normal ride height and bump
stop height to allow easier connection and disconnection of trailers. The remote handset is similar in appearance to
that of the remote door locking handset but does not have an integral key. A circular button with an arrow is used to
raise the SLS and an oval button with the 'Land Rover' logo is used to lower the SLS.
The remote handset control requires all doors to be closed and the ignition to be in position II, but the engine does
not need to be running.

SEATS
76-5-6 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Two pins within the seat switch pack control the seat fore/ aft motor. Both pins are normally earthed. Operating the
backward switch applies voltage to that pin while the other pin remains earthed. Operating the forward switch reverses
power and earth to the motor allowing the motor to run in the opposite direction.
Seat cushion front up/ down motor
The seat cushion front up/ down motor is a permanent magnet motor coupled to a rack and pinion assembly. Should
the motor seize or stick for 6 seconds or more an internal thermal cut out switch will trip to remove voltage from the
motor. Reset time for the switch is 35 seconds.
Two pins within the seat switch pack control the seat cushion front up/ down motor. Both pins are normally earthed.
Operating the up switch applies voltage to that pin while the other pin remains earthed. Operating the down switch
reverses power and earth to the motor allowing the motor to run in the opposite direction.
Seat cushion rear up/ down motor
The seat cushion rear up/ down motor is a permanent magnet motor coupled to a rack and pinion assembly. Should
the motor seize or stick for 6 seconds or more, an internal thermal cut out switch will trip to remove voltage from the
motor. Reset time for the switch is 35 seconds.
Two pins within the seat switch pack control the seat cushion rear up/ down motor. Both pins are normally earthed.
Operating the up switch applies voltage to that pin while the other pin remains earthed. Operating the down switch
reverses power and earth to the motor allowing the motor to run in the opposite direction.
Seat squab fore/ aft motor
The squab fore/ aft motor is a permanent magnet motor coupled to a rotary rack and pinion assembly. Should the
motor seize or stick for 6 seconds or more, an internal thermal cut out switch will trip to remove voltage from the motor.
Reset time for the switch is 35 seconds.
Two pins within the seat switch pack control the squab fore/ aft motor. Both pins are normally earthed. Operating the
fore switch applies voltage to that pin while the other pin remains earthed. Operating the aft switch reverses power
and earth to the motor allowing the motor to run in the opposite direction.
Lumbar pump
The lumbar pump inflates a bladder in the squab which provides extra support for the seat occupant. With no load on
the seat it takes approximately 10 seconds to completely inflate the bladder. With a load of 25 kg (55 lb) it takes
approximately 15 seconds to inflate the bladder. A pressure cut off switch in the system will operate at 0.12 to 1.93
bar (1.8 to 28 lbf.in
2). If a problem occurs with the lumbar bladder, e.g. a rupture, the whole lumbar system must be
replaced. The components are not serviceable.
Power comes from the seat switch pack through a 3A fuse in the satellite fuse box. The lumbar pump and the lumbar
deflate solenoid share an earth.
Lumbar deflate solenoid
The lumbar deflate solenoid vents the lumbar bladder to atmosphere to allow air to evacuate the bladder. The average
time to evacuate the bladder with a load of 25 kg (55 lb) is 9 seconds.
Power comes from the seat switch pack through a 3A fuse in the satellite fuse box. The lumbar deflate solenoid and
the lumbar pump share an earth.
