Land Rover Defender: AUTO

The AUTO terrain response setting automatically selects the most appropriate driving program for the prevailing conditions.

To select the AUTO terrain response setting, press and hold the terrain response button for longer than 2 seconds.

The touchscreen displays a confirmation message to confirm that the AUTO terrain response setting has been selected.

Note: The ECO, wade, dynamic and configurable terrain response driving programs are not selected by the AUTO terrain response setting.

Note: The performance of the AUTO setting is limited if a trailer is connected to the vehicle.

DRIVER OVERRIDE OPTIONS

The terrain response driving programs automatically enable Dynamic Stability Control (DSC). If required, DSC can be manually disabled.

Note: DSC cannot be disabled if the AUTO terrain response setting is selected.

Some terrain response driving programs automatically select Hill Descent Control (HDC). If required, HDC can be manually deselected.

The instrument panel displays the DSC and HDC status.

TERRAIN RESPONSE LIMITATIONS

If the terrain response system develops a system fault:

• The instrument panel displays a warning message.
• The comfort driving program is automatically selected.
• All other driving program icons gray out and are unavailable for selection.

The instrument panel displays a message if the fault was temporary and has since passed. In this instance, the comfort driving program remains active, but the other driving programs become available for selection.

The instrument panel also displays a message if the fault is permanent. Follow the on-screen guidance and contact a retailer/authorized repairer at the earliest opportunity.
