Fluidlevelchecks
The use of non-approved antifreeze will
have an adverse effect on the engine
cooling system and therefore engine
durability.
CHECKING THE BRAKE FLUID LEVEL
Brake fluid is highly toxic - keep
containers sealed and out of the reach
of children. If accidental consumption
of fluid is suspected, seek medical
attention immediately.
Antifreeze will damage painted
surfaces; soak up any spillage with an
absorbent cloth immediately and wash
the area with a mixture of car shampoo
and water.
If the fluid comes into contact with the
skin or eyes, rinse immediately with
plenty of water.
Top up to the MAX mark, located on the side of
the expansion tank. Use only a 50% mix of
water and the approved antifreeze. See 264,
LUBRICANTS AND FLUIDS.
Take care not to spill the fluid onto a
hot engine - a fire may result.
The specific gravity of a 50% antifreeze solution
at 20°C (68°F) is 1.068 and protects against
frost down to -40°C (-40°F).
Do not drive the vehicle with the fluid
level below the MIN mark.
Antifreeze contains important corrosion
inhibitors. The antifreeze content of the coolant
must be maintained at 50%± 5% all year round
(not just in cold conditions). To make sure that
the anti-corrosion properties of the coolant are
retained, the antifreeze content should be
checked once a year and completely renewed
every ten years, regardless of distance travelled.
Failure to do so may cause corrosion of the
radiator and engine components.
Seek qualified assistance immediately
if brake pedal travel is unusually long
or if there is any significant loss of
brake fluid. Driving under such
conditions could result in extended
stopping distances or complete brake
failure.
If the quantity of fluid in the brake reservoir
drops below the recommended level, a red
warning lamp in the instrument pack will
illuminate. See 49, BRAKE (RED).
Note: In an emergency - and only if the
approved antifreeze is unavailable - top up the
cooling system with clean water, but be aware
of the resultant reduction in frost protection.
Do not top up or refill with conventional
antifreeze formulations. If in doubt consult a
qualified technician.
Note: If the warning lamp illuminates while the
vehicle is being driven, stop the vehicle as soon
as safety permits by gently applying the brakes.
Check and top up the fluid level if necessary.
With the vehicle on level ground, check the fluid
level at least every week (more frequently in
high mileage or arduous operating conditions).
Make sure the cap is tightened fully after top up
is completed by turning the cap until the ratchet
cap clicks.

Automotive readers have rated 2014-2015 Land Rover Range Rover Handbook Manual 3.0 out of 3.0 based on 1 product reviews. I stopped to buy fuel. On shifting to D to move, my range rover could not move, but low gear light continued to blink. The low gear button remained stiff. What is wrong?
