Range Rover: Selecting HDC
1. Press to switch HDC on and off.
2. Press to increase the set speed.
3. Press to decrease the set speed.
HDC can be selected at speeds below 50 mph (80 km/h).
HDC can be used in D, R or CommandShift 1 when in Hi range and in D, R and all CommandShift gears when in Lo range. When in D, the vehicle will select the most appropriate gear.
Note: HDC is automatically selected by some of the Terrain response special programs.
To select HDC, press and release the HDC on/off switch (1).
If the HDC lamp flashes, HDC has been selected but is not operating. This is caused by the system’s operating conditions not being met (e.g. vehicle speed too high).
If HDC is deselected while operating, the lamp will flash and the system will fade out, allowing the vehicle speed to gradually increase. If the vehicle speed exceeds 50 mph (80 km/h) HDC will disengage, and the HDC lamp will extinguish.
Note: HDC is automatically deselected if the ignition is switched off for more than 6 hours.
