Off-roading Basics Part 3

Gear Selection:                                                                                               
In this section we will show you how to maximize your off-road experience by putting the Land Rover Terrain Response® to use.
Terrain Response® is utilized by twisting the dial to the desired Terrain Response mode. Please also note the Hill Descent Control (HDC) switch, Hi/Low transmission mode and air suspension raise and lower controls. To control transmission gears this can be done by using the paddle shifters on the rear of the steering wheel or by using the gear selector.
