Beeps/Chimes on Startup

Past couple of mornings I've had two beeps/chimes on startup. No warning lights. No dash messages, temperatures have not been that low. I'm fuelled up and obviously fairly new!!

Any ideas?! Usually it beeps from engine cold, as when I got to work I restarted with no beeps?!

Nothing obvious in the handbook for what it could mean.

Sure it's not the temperature warning? Comes on just under 4 degrees.

On the Pre MY13, if you had a warning beep, you would get a message and an i displayed in the message centre which you scrolled to read, nothing displayed Question p****d off with a Digital Keyboard Warrior

My one has a warning on the dash at the moment but doesn't make any beeps. It's only the windscreen washers are low. 21MY Defender 90 S 3.0 D200

Had the beeps again this morning, no on screen warning messages, temp at 7c.....can't understand it!!

Literally no obvious explanation for the bing bongs, there's no secret oil warning method or anything is there??

It was only in the other day for a heater module upgrade and two recalls. Would have thought it was running tip top software. I'll see what happens and if I can find the cause!! 2013 FL2 - Black Edition Auto

It could be due a service, keep an eye on the information Centre on start up, I think it displays a number of days till service is due.

Soon as it beeps look straight at the external temp figure, it turns off and on if its that. (my service indicator is negative at the moment and it doesn't beep).

Did you resolve the "bong" problem? Just started on my 2014 GS TD4 auto, exactly the same problem. Get in, switch on and "bong bong" - all warning lights go out as they should do. Only does it first thing in the morning; throughout the day it is fine. Would like to understand what potentially is causing it before seeking LR help under warranty

Mine too, I have noticed a couple of times though that either my door is not shut correctly or still open or the daughter is getting in and her door is open.
So many safety bongs it could be anything?

Mine didn't make any noise the other day when it was 0 degrees. Is there a way of enabling it/disabling it?
