Towing
ꢀ
Ensure that a suitable breakaway cable or
TRAILER STABILITY ASSIST (TSA)
secondary coupling is used. Refer to the
trailer manufacturer's instructions for
guidance.
When a trailer is attached, TSA will
automatically detect when a trailer sway is
developing. It will then gradually reduce vehicle
speed by cutting engine power and applying
the brakes to help regain control.

HITCH ASSIST
ꢀ
Nose weight - Must be a minimum of 7%
of gross caravan/trailer weight, up to a
maximum of 150kg (330lb).
Hitch assist is a user selectable touch screen
feature that can aid the process of guiding the
vehicle to the trailer tow hitch. See 109,
SURROUND CAMERA SYSTEM.
TRAILER ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Connect only approved electrical
circuits, which are in good condition, to
the trailer socket.
DETACHABLE TOW BALL
Fit and remove instructions are supplied with
this accessory fit item. Ensure that they are
kept in a safe place.
The vehicle connector provides a 5 amp output
which must not be exceeded. An accessory
harness kit increasing output to 15 amp is
available from your Land Rover Dealer.
When a trailer electrical connection
is made and the vehicle’s direction
indicators are used, the trailer
warning indicator will flash in time with the
direction indicators.
POWERED TAILGATE
When towing, ensure there is sufficient
clearance before opening or closing the
tailgate.
PARKING AIDS
The rear parking aids sensors are automatically
disabled when a trailer with an approved
electrical connector is connected.
Note: Trailers fitted with LED lights will not
disable the rear parking aids sensors. When
reverse gear is selected, the attached trailer will
be detected as an obstacle.
