SECURITY/CENTRAL LOCKING – CIRCUIT OPERATION

CIRCUIT OPERATION

Basic Overview - Central Door Locking

All new Range Rover models feature Central Door Locking. All four doors and the tailgate can be locked and unlocked through operation of the central locking system, which can be operated by: Pressing down, or lifting up, either of the front
door sill buttons. Turning the key clockwise (to lock), or turning the
key anti-clockwise (to unlock), with the key in the drivers door lock. Pressing the “lock” button, or pressing the “un
lock” button, on the remote handset. The new Range Rover is also equipped with a “Superlocking” feature. When the vehicle is “Superlocked”, it is impossible to unlock any of the doors from inside the vehicle by lifting any of the sill buttons.

Basic Overview - Alarm

All new Range Rovers are equipped with a sophisticated integrated security system. The alarm system offers the following forms of protection: Perimetric protection against unauthorised open
ing of any of the hinged “slam” panels. Engine crank inhibit against unauthorised engine
crank. Electronic engine immobilisation against unau
thorised engine start. Volumetric protection against intrusion into the
passenger compartment.

Basic Overview - Lazy Locking

An additional feature of the new Range Rover’s security system is Lazy Locking. Lazy Locking enables the driver to close any open glass panel (window or sunroof) from outside the car using either the key or the remote handset. Lazy Locking can be carried out either when locking or super locking the vehicle, or when the vehicle is already in a locked state. N.B. Activation of a lazy locking sequence will be dependent on market requirements.
