Land Rover Discovery: Keyless start backup

If the vehicle is 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 feature to disarm the alarm and start the engine.

The Keyless start backup feature can only be used when the message Smart Key Not Recognised - Reposition or Place As Shown and Press Start Button is displayed in the Message centre.

Keyless start backup
