Security

The 1997 Range Rover incorporates many thoughtful and advanced features for your convenience and security. Central locking and an anti-theft alarm can be operated using either the key or a remote entry device. But the system offers much more than that.

The remote entry units use a "rolling code" - each time the vehicle is locked and unlocked, the unit resets to a different frequency. Anti-theft features include engine immobilization as well as two different methods of detecting unauthorized intrusion. Perimeter sensing monitors the doors and tailgate to ensure that they remain closed. Volumetric sensing uses ultrasonic sensors within the passenger compartment to detect motion.

  The intelligent design of this system allows it to adapt to background noise levels (wind noise, for example), and makes it tolerant of momentary shocks, such as a tennis ball bouncing off a window. When the vehicle is "super locked" with all anti-theft functions in place, it is even impossible to open the doors from inside.

In addition, the standard HomeLink® system lets you combine the functions of three of your remote-control devices into one transmitter.

 

C onvenience and security exist side by side in the 1997 Range Rover. For instance, an "all close" function lets you close the power windows and power sunroof by holding the key in the driver's door lock. The driver's seat and outside mirrors' memory positions can be selected when you unlock your Range Rover using the standard remote entry device. And the rear wiper automatically operates when the front wipers are on and you select Reverse.
