Land Rover Defender: Fuel system

Under no circumstances should any part of the fuel system be dismantled or replaced by anyone other than a suitably qualified vehicle technician. If any parts are replaced by an unqualified person, this may cause interference in the operation of the vehicle, leading to serious injury or death.

Make sure sparks and open flames are kept away from the engine compartment. A spark may cause an explosion, which may lead to serious injuries or death.

Wear protective clothing, including, where possible, gloves made from an impervious material. Failure to do so may result in serious injury or death.

If fuel odor is detected, switch off the vehicle and exit as soon as possible.

Contact a suitably qualified vehicle technician. Failure to do so could lead to serious injuries or death.

CHANGING A BULB

Note: All lights are either LED or xenon units and must only be replaced by a retailer/authorized repairer.

WIPERS SERVICE POSITION

Note: The smart key must remain inside the vehicle while the wiper blades are replaced.

Note: Fit only replacement wiper blades that are identical to the original specification.

Note: Replace the wiper blades in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.

Before changing a wiper blade, the wiper arms must be set in the service position as follows:

1. Make sure the ignition is switched off.

2. Switch the ignition on and then off again.

3. Immediately press the wash/wipe control to its lowest position, as if to command a single wipe. Hold this position while switching on the ignition again. The wipers move to the service position. 4. When the new parts have been fitted, switch the ignition off. The wipers return to the park position.
