Range Rover Evoque: Locking and arming the alarm
CAUTION: No modifications or
additions should be made to the
anti-theft system. Such changes could
cause the system to malfunction.
There are two levels of security: - Single locking. With all doors and tailgate closed, press the lock button on the Smart Key once, to Single lock the vehicle and activate the perimeter alarm. The alarm LED in the instrument panel will start to flash and the hazard warning lamps will flash once to confirm locking. Power fold mirrors will fold in (if enabled).
- Double locking. A second press within three seconds will Double lock the vehicle and activate the full alarm system. The hazard warning lamps will flash a second time to confirm the enhanced Double lock state. An audible confirmation may also be given. The audible warning can be set/disabled via Audible Lock Warning in the Vehicle Settings menu. See 56, VEHICLE INFORMATION AND SETTINGS MENU.
The vehicle will not lock if
a door, the
tailgate or the bonnet aperture is open,
or the ignition is ON. No lamps will flash
and if the lock request is via the Smart
Key, there will be an audible mislock
warning.
Ensure that the Smart Key
does not
remain in the vehicle prior to closure. If
the vehicle is in an area of localised RF
interference or the Smart Key is
shielded by metal objects, the vehicle
may close and lock with no means of
opening again.
Remove any additional Smart
Keys
from the vehicle before locking.
Note: The fuel filler flap can be opened only when the alarm is disarmed.
