Range Rover Evoque: Keyless start backup
If the vehicle has been unlocked using the
emergency key blade or the Smart Key is not
detected by the vehicle, it will be necessary to
use the keyless start backup to disarm the
alarm and start the engine.
The keyless start backup can only be used
when the message Smart Key Not Found Refer
to Handbook is displayed in the message
centre.

Position the Smart Key against the underside
of the steering column cover with the buttons
facing downwards.
With the brake (Auto) or clutch (Man) pedal
depressed, press and release the START/STOP
button to start the engine.
When the engine starts, you no longer need to
hold the Smart Key beneath the steering
column.
Note: If the Smart Key is not recognised or the
engine still fails to start, consult your Dealer/
Authorised Repairer.
Note: If the message Smart Key Not Detected
is displayed, ensure that the key is being held
in the correct position and try again.
