Before You Drive
ANTI-THEFT PRECAUTIONS
IN AN EMERGENCY
While it may be difficult to deter the
‘professional’ car thief, the majority of thefts are
carried out by unskilled opportunists.
Therefore, take vehicle security very seriously
and ALWAYS adopt this simple ‘four point’ drill
whenever you leave your vehicle - even for just
a few minutes:
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Remember the breakdown safety code
If a breakdown occurs while travelling:
•
Wherever possible, consistent with
road safety and traffic conditions, the
vehicle should be moved off the main
thoroughfare, preferably onto the
shoulder as far as possible. If a
breakdown occurs on a motorway, pull
well over to the inside of the hard
shoulder.
1.
Fully close all the windows (and the
sunroof).
2.
Remove your valuable belongings (or hide
them out of sight).
3.
4.
Remove the starter key.
Superlock the vehicle using the remote
handset.
•
•
Switch on hazard lights.
Thieves are attracted by ‘vulnerable’ vehicles.
Even if you have followed the ‘four point’ drill,
there is still much you can do to make your
vehicle a less inviting target.
If possible, position a warning triangle
or a flashing amber light at an
appropriate distance from the vehicle to
warn other traffic of the breakdown,
(note the legal requirements of some
areas).
BE SAFE - NOT SORRY!
•
Park where your vehicle can be easily seen
by householders and passers-by.
•
Consider evacuating passengers
through the doors facing away from
traffic, to a safe area away from the
vehicle as a precaution in case your
Range Rover is accidentally struck by
another vehicle.
•
At night, park in well lit areas and avoid
deserted or dimly-lit side streets.
•
•
NEVER leave the keys in the vehicle.
Do not keep important documents (or spare
keys) in the vehicle - these are a real bonus
for the thief.
