VEHICLEIDENTIFICATIONNUMBER (VIN)
ANTI-THEFTPRECAUTIONS
While it may be difficult to deter the
’professional’car thief, the majorityof thefts
are carried out by unskilled opportunists.
Therefore, take vehicle securityveryseriously
and ALWAYS adopt this simple ’five point’
drillwhenever you leave your vehicle - even
for just a few minutes:
If you need to communicate with a Land
Rover dealer, you may be asked to quote the
Vehicle Identification Number (VIN).
The VINand recommended maximum vehicle
weights (dependent on market) is stamped on
a plate riveted to the top of the brake pedal
box in the engine compartment (this should
also match the VINrecorded in the Service
Porfolio book). The VINis also stamped on
the right-hand side of the chassis, forward of
the spring mounting turret.
•
Fullyclose all the windows (and the
sunroof).
•
Remove your valuable belongings (or hide
them out of sight).
In addition, as a deterrent to car thieves and to
assist the police, the VINis also stamped on a
plate visible through the left side of the
windscreen.
•
•
Remove the starter key.
Engage the steering lock (by slightly
turning the wheel until it locks).
•
Lock all the doors.
Thieves are attracted to ’vulnerable’vehicles.
Even if you have followed the ’five point’drill,
there is stillmuch you can do to make your
vehicle a less inviting target.

At home, if you have a garage, use it - and
NEVER leave the keys in the vehicle.
Do not keep important vehicle documents
(or spare keys) in the vehicle - these are a
realbonus for the thief.

that the gross vehicle weight, gross train
weight and axle loads are NOTexceeded. For
