Load carrying  
Installation of the cover is the reverse of

REAR LOADSPACE  
Never allow passengers to travel in  
the loadspace under any  
Storing the cover:  
circumstances. All vehicle occupants  
should be seated correctly and wear a  
seat belt at all times when the vehicle  
is in motion.  
Do not store the loadspace cover  
loose in the vehicle.  
1. Remove the loadspace cover.  
2. Fold the rear seats forward.  
Always ensure that objects carried  
within the vehicle are secured  
properly.  
3. Position the cover vertically in the vehicle  
approximately where the upright rear seat  
backrests are normally. The top surface of  
the cover must be facing forwards with the  
retaining brackets at the top.  
4. Locate the retaining brackets onto the side  
trim pins.  
5. Return the rear seats to the upright locked  
position.  
ROOF RACKS  
A loaded roof rack can reduce the  
stability of the vehicle, particularly  
when cornering and during cross  
winds.  
Driving off road with a loaded roof  
rack is not recommended.  
Fit only a roof rack system that is designed for  
use with your vehicle. For further information,  
consult your Land Rover Dealer/Authorised  
Repairer.  
To remove the loadspace cover:  
The maximum load for a Land Rover approved  
roof rack system is 75kg (165lb) while driving  
on road. Off road driving reduces the limit to  
50kg (110lb). The weight of the approved roof  
rack system is not calculated as part of the  
load.  
1. Release the two straps from the pins on the  
tailgate.  
2. Pull the cover rearwards to release the  
retaining brackets on the edges of the  
cover from the pins on the loadspace side  
trim.  
If an alternative roof rack system is used, the  
weight of that system must be included as part  
of the load weight.  
Never place objects on top of the  
loadspace cover. During an accident  
or sudden manoeuvre, loose objects  
can cause serious injury or death.

Load carrying  
Loads must be evenly distributed within the  
periphery of the rack. After travelling 50km (30  
miles) check the security of the roof rack and  
any load.  
2. Load securing lashing eyes.  
To assist in safely securing large items  
of luggage, four lashing eyes are  
located in the rear loadspace floor.  
If adjustable lashing eyes are fitted, lift  
the locking lever, move to the required  
position then push down to relock.  
LUGGAGE ANCHOR POINTS  
Note: A range of approved luggage retention  
accessories is available from your Land Rover  
Dealer/Authorised Repairer.  
All items carried in the luggage area  
should be properly secured.  
1. Bag hooks.  
The bag hooks should only be used to  
secure light items such as shopping  
bags.
