Land Rover Defender: Information panel
The information panel displays information and menu selection options. The information panel can be configured to meet personal preferences.
FUEL GAUGE
The fuel gauge displays the current fuel tank level. An arrow-head symbol, next to the fuel pump symbol, indicates which side of the vehicle the fuel filler flap is located.
The low fuel
warning lamp
illuminates to indicate that the
vehicle should be refueled in
the near future.
The approximate driving distance for the current fuel level can be viewed via the trip computer.
Never allow the engine to run out of fuel.
Doing so may cause serious damage to the vehicle's fuel system.
ENGINE TEMPERATURE GAUGE
The temperature gauge displays the current engine temperature.
If the
pointer moves into the red
segment, the engine is
overheating. In this event, the
engine temperature warning
lamp illuminates.
If the engine overheats, stop the vehicle as soon as safety permits. Allow the engine to idle until the temperature reduces. If the temperature does not reduce after several minutes, switch the engine off and allow it to cool.
If the problem persists, seek qualified assistance immediately.
Serious engine damage occurs if the vehicle is driven while the engine is overheating.
Note: Engine performance may be reduced, and some vehicle systems may stop working, if the engine overheats.
