Entering the vehicle

KEYLESS ENTRY

Any person fitted with an implanted
medical device should ensure that the
device is kept at a distance of at least
22 cm (8.7 inches) away from any
transmitter mounted in the vehicle.
This is to avoid any possibility of
interference between the system and
device.

For information concerning the
locations of the security system
transmitters, see 173, REMOTE KEY
FOB TRANSMITTER LOCATIONS.

If a remote control is lost, a
replacement can be obtained and
reprogrammed to the vehicle by a
Jaguar Dealer/Authorised Repairer.
Notify a Jaguar Dealer/Authorised
Repairer as soon as a remote control is
lost or stolen and have the remaining
remote control(s) reprogrammed.

Keyless entry allows the vehicle to be unlocked
and disarmed by simply operating the door
handle, provided the Jaguar Smart Key is
within 1.0 m (3 feet).

The Smart Key needs only to be on the driver’s
person; it does not need to be exposed or
handled.

The Smart Key may not be detected if it
is placed within a metal container or if it
is shielded by a device with a back-lit
LCD screen, such as a smart phone,
laptop (including laptop bag), games
console etc. Keep the Smart Key clear of
such devices when attempting Keyless
entry or Keyless starting.

Note: Keyless entry will unlock the vehicle in
accordance with the current security setting
(Single-point or Multi-point entry). However, if
Single-point entry is the current setting and a
door other than the driver’s door is opened
first, all doors will unlock.

When all open doors have been closed, the
system will search the vehicle interior for a
valid Smart Key. If one is not detected, Smart
Key Not Found Place As Shown will be
displayed in the message centre. Find the
Smart Key and place it against the fascia, below
the auxiliary switch pack, as shown previously.

The security system fitted to your vehicle is
Thatcham category 1 approved, and meets EU
regulations 97/116 and EU directive 95/56 EC.

GLOBAL OPENING

Press and hold the unlock button for three
seconds. The vehicle will unlock and the alarm
will be disarmed immediately. After three
seconds, all of the windows will open. This
feature can be enabled/disabled via the
instrument panel menu.

To stop the windows from opening/closing
during the global opening/closing operation,
press any of the buttons on the Jaguar Smart
Key or operate the driver’s window switch. To
stop a particular window from opening,
operate the relevant window switch.

DRIVE-AWAY LOCKING

Locks all the doors when the vehicle exceeds 8
km/h (5 mph). Use of the central locking/
unlocking buttons (see 206, DRIVER
CONTROLS) will override the drive-away
locking feature for the rest of a journey.

If a door is individually unlocked and opened,
all doors will relock when the open door is
subsequently closed.

8

Entering the vehicle

Note: Drive-away locking can be enabled/
disabled via the Vehicle Set-up area of the
instrument panel menu.

CONVENIENCE MODE

When the door is opened using either the
Jaguar Smart Key or keyless entry, the
vehicle's electrical system initiates the
convenience mode. The following systems
become functional:

• Driver position memory.

• Seat and steering column adjustment.

• Interior and exterior lighting.

• Message centre.

• Auxiliary power socket.

REMOTE KEY FOB CARE

To prevent accidental operation,
which may result in an injury, never
leave the Jaguar Smart Key in the
vehicle if children or animals are also
left in the vehicle.

Do not expose to extremes of heat, dust,
humidity or allow contact with fluids. Do not
leave the transmitter exposed to direct
sunlight.

The emergency key blade number is recorded
on an attached label. Peel off the label and
attach it to the designated area on the Security
Card, supplied in the literature pack. Keep the
Security Card safe, but not in the vehicle.

The operational range of the Jaguar Smart Key
will vary considerably depending on
atmospheric conditions and interference from
other transmitting devices.

Note: The radio frequency used by the Smart
Key may be used by other devices (e.g. medical
equipment). This may prevent the Smart Key
from operating correctly.

REMOTE KEY FOB BATTERY REPLACEMENT

Note: There are two designs of Smart Key,
refer to the information which is relevant to the
design of Smart Key supplied with the vehicle.

When the battery needs renewing, there will be
a significant decrease in the effective range and
the message SMART KEY BATTERY LOW is
displayed in the message centre.

To replace the battery:

1. Press the release button on the side of the
Smart Key.

2. Open the Smart Key cover.

3. Remove the battery drawer.

4. Remove the battery.

Fit a new CR2032 type battery (available from
your Dealer/Authorised Repairer), with the

with the positive (+) side upwards.

Note: Avoid touching the new battery, as
moisture/oil from your fingers can reduce
battery life and corrode the contacts.

Refit the parts in the reverse order, ensuring
that they click securely into place.

Battery disposal: Used batteries
must be disposed of correctly, as
they contain harmful substances.
Seek advice on disposal from your
Dealer/Authorised Repairer and/or
your local authority.

Exiting the vehicle

DOOR LOCK AND RELEASE LEVERS

1. Press the locking lever to lock the door,

pull the lever to unlock the door. Operating
the locking lever on either front door will
lock or unlock all closed doors.

2. Pull the release lever to open a door. If a

rear door is locked, operating the lever will
have no effect.

Note: If the car was locked using the Jaguar
Smart Key, then operating the locking lever will
only unlock that door and the alarm will sound.

If the vehicle has been double-locked, the
interior door lock and release levers will not
operate. The vehicle must be unlocked using
the Jaguar Smart Key.

SINGLE LOCKING

Press the lock button briefly. Single locking
secures the vehicle and prevents the doors and
luggage compartment being opened from
outside of the vehicle. The doors can be
unlocked and opened from inside the vehicle.
The hazard warning lamps will flash once as
confirmation.

Exiting the vehicle

DOUBLE LOCKING

Never double lock the vehicle with
people, children or pets inside. In the
event of an emergency they would be
unable to escape, and the emergency
services would be unable to release
them quickly.

When the vehicle is double-locked the
doors cannot be opened, either from
inside or outside the vehicle.

Press the lock button twice within three
seconds. Double locking secures the vehicle
and prevents the doors and luggage
compartment being unlocked or opened from
inside or outside of the vehicle, except with the
correct Jaguar Smart Key. The hazard warning
lamps will flash twice (with a long second
flash) and an audible warning will sound as
confirmation.

The audible warning can be
enabled/ disabled by your
Dealer/Authorised Repairer.

LOCK CONFIRMATION

If you are uncertain whether the vehicle is
locked and armed (either by single or double
locking), press the lock button again. The
hazard warning lights will flash to indicate and
confirm the current lock status.

Note: If the vehicle is not already locked and
armed, pressing the lock button will single lock
the vehicle. Press again to double lock, if
required.

11

Exiting the vehicle

MISLOCK

If one of the doors, the hood or the luggage
compartment are not shut fully when the
vehicle is locked using the Jaguar Smart Key or
by Keyless locking, the vehicle will not lock and
two warning tones will sound. Check that all
doors, the hood and the luggage compartment
are closed properly and lock the vehicle again.

If one or more of the doors fails to lock
properly when a lock attempt is made using the
Jaguar Smart Key, two warning tones will
sound and one or more of the doors may not be
locked.

GLOBAL CLOSING

Ensure that no children, pets, or
obstructions are in any open aperture
before operating global closing.

Ensure that all doors are closed, then press and
hold the lock button on the Smart Key for 3
seconds. Alternatively, press and hold the lock
button on the door handle. The vehicle will
single lock and the alarm will be fully armed
immediately. After 3 seconds, all of the
windows will close.

Note: If the button on the door handle is
released before the windows have fully closed,
the windows will stop closing.

KEYLESS LOCKING

Remove all Jaguar Smart Keys and
emergency key blades from the vehicle
when it is left unattended. This will help
prevent the alarm being disarmed and
therefore help prevent theft.

The Smart Key may not be detected if it
is placed within a metal container or if it
is shielded by a device with a back-lit
LCD screen, such as a smart phone,
laptop (including laptop bag), games
console etc.

The vehicle will not lock automatically.

To single-lock the vehicle, press the button on
the door handle once. The hazard warning
lamps will flash once as confirmation (in some
markets, an audible warning will sound).

To double-lock the vehicle, press the button
twice within three seconds. The hazard
warning lamps will flash twice (with a long
second flash). In some markets, a double
audible warning will sound.

Note: Keyless locking will only activate if all
doors, bonnet and the luggage compartment
are closed and the Jaguar Smart Key is outside
the vehicle. If the above conditions are not met,
two audible error warnings will sound.

FULL ALARM

To set full alarm protection, ensure that all the
windows and the sunroof are closed. On
vehicles fitted with double-locking, press the
lock button twice within three seconds. The
hazard warning lights will flash twice to
confirm the alarm state and, in some markets,
an audible tone will sound.

Note: If the alarm is armed and a window or the
sunroof are left open, the alarm may sound due
to movement of air currents, detected by the
intrusion sensors in the front interior light
console.

The intrusion sensors can be temporarily
disabled, for the next time the vehicle is locked,
via the Vehicle Set-up area of the instrument
panel menu.

PERIMETER ALARM

To set perimeter alarm protection, press the
lock button. The hazard warning lights will
flash to confirm the alarm state.

12

Exiting the vehicle

BATTERY-BACKED SOUNDER

In certain markets, a separate battery backed
sounder is fitted. This device will sound the
alarm if the vehicle battery or the alarm
sounder is disconnected when the security
system is armed.

DEACTIVATING THE ALARM WHEN TRIGGERED

If the alarm has been triggered, it can be
deactivated by any one of the following
methods:

• Pressing the unlock button on the Jaguar
Smart Key.

• Opening a door using keyless entry.

• Pressing the START/STOP button with a

valid Jaguar Smart Key present.

TILT SENSOR

The tilt sensor detects any change in the
vehicle's angle to the ground. When the alarm
is armed and the vehicle double-locked, any
change in the vehicle's angle will activate the
tilt alarm.

Note: The tilt sensors can be temporarily
disabled, for the next time the vehicle is locked,
via the Vehicle Set-up area of the instrument
panel menu.

PASSIVE ARMING

This vehicle is fitted with a passive arming
feature which can, if enabled, automatically
arm the anti-theft system. Passive arming will
automatically arm the perimeter alarm system
60 seconds after the driver's door is closed,
provided all doors, bonnet and luggage
compartment are closed, the ignition is
switched off and there are no valid Jaguar
Smart Keys inside the vehicle.

Passive arming will not lock the vehicle,
although access to the luggage compartment
via the interior or exterior release buttons will
be prevented and the fuel filler flap will be
locked.

Passive arming can be enabled/
disabled by your
Dealer/Authorised Repairer.

AUTOMATIC RELOCKING AND RE-ARMING OF THE ALARM

Automatic relock and re-arm is a feature which,
if enabled, automatically relocks the vehicle
and arms the anti-theft system.

If the vehicle is in a locked and armed state and
the remote unlock button is pressed, but none
of the doors or the luggage compartment are
opened within 40 seconds, the vehicle will
automatically relock all the doors and the
luggage compartment and will re-arm the
alarm system.

Note: Automatic relocking and arming will only
relock and arm to the last locked and armed
state.

Automatic relocking and
re-arming can be enabled/disabled
by your Dealer/Authorised
Repairer.

SENSOR FAULTS

If the security systems detect a fault with one
of the security sensors, an error tone will
sound from the alarm after the vehicle is
unlocked and disarmed. If this condition
occurs, please visit your Dealer/Authorised
Repairer for rectification.

into the protective sleeves and onto the
anchor bars.

• Test the security of the child restraint.

To do this, attempt to pull the restraint
away from the vehicle seat and twist
the restraint from side to side. Even if
the restraint appears secure you
should always check the anchor points
visually to ensure correct attachment.

Note: Always ensure that if an upper tether
is provided, it is fitted and tightened
correctly.

3. To adjust the seat belt height:-

• Press to release the catch.

• With the catch depressed slide the

mechanism up or down to the required
height. Release the catch and ensure
the locking mechanism has engaged.

The use of comfort clips or devices
that would create slack in the seat
belt system, is not advised.

No modifications or additions
should be made by the user which
will either prevent the seat belt
adjusting devices from operating
to remove slack, or prevent the
seat belt assembly from being
adjusted to remove slack.

4. Draw the belt out smoothly, ensure that the

belt height, the seat, and your position on
the seat are correct.

Seat belts are designed to bear
upon the bony structure of the
body, and should be worn low
across the front of the pelvis or the
pelvis, chest and shoulders, as
applicable; wearing the lap
section of the belt across the
abdominal area must be avoided.

Seat belts should be adjusted as
firmly as possible, consistent with
comfort, to provide the protection
for which they have been
designed. A slack belt will greatly
reduce the protection afforded to
the wearer.

Belts should not be worn with the
straps twisted.

Each belt assembly must only be
used by one occupant; it is
dangerous to put a belt around a
child being carried on the
occupant's lap.

The occupants of the front seats
should not travel with the seat
back at more than 30 degrees from
upright. Doing so will reduce the
protection afforded by the seat
belt.

23

Occupant safety

Never place anything between you
and the seat belt in an attempt to
cushion the impact in the event of
an accident.

5. With the seat belt correctly positioned,

place the metal tongue into the buckle
nearest to you. Press it in until a click is
heard. Ensure that all slack has been taken
up by the retractor and the belt fits tightly
across the hips.

Note: When releasing the seat belt it is
advisable to hold the belt before pressing
the release button. This will prevent the
belt from retracting too quickly.

To release the seat belt, press the red
button.

6. Use of seat belts during pregnancy:

Position the lap strap comfortably across
the hips beneath the abdomen. Place the
diagonal part of the seat belt between the
breasts and to the side of the abdomen.

Position the seat belt correctly for
the safety of the mother and
unborn child. Never wear just the
lap strap, and never sit on the lap
strap whilst using just the
shoulder strap.

Never place anything between you
and the seat belt. It can be
dangerous and reduce the
effectiveness of the seat belt in
preventing injury.

Ensure that the seat belt is not
slack or twisted.

7. Tether strap anchorages. See 28,
INSTALLING TETHER ANCHORAGE CHILD
RESTRAINTS.

Child restraint anchorages are
designed to withstand only those
loads imposed by correctly fitted
child restraints. Under no
circumstances are they to be used
for adult seat belts, harnesses or
for attaching other items or
equipment to the vehicle.

If a child seat or restraint system
is to be fitted to the centre seating
position, the centre armrest must
be in the stowed position (folded
into the seat).

Note: A tether anchorage is provided for
the centre seat position. Do not use this
anchor position with an ISOFIX child seat.

SEAT BELT SAFETY

Care should be taken to avoid
contamination of the webbing with
polishes, oils and chemicals, and
particularly battery acid. Cleaning
may safely be carried out using mild
soap and water.

The belt should be replaced if
webbing becomes frayed,
contaminated or damaged.

It is essential to replace the entire
assembly after it has been worn in a
severe impact, even if damage to the
assembly is not obvious.

Do not carry hard, fragile or sharp
items between your person and the
seat belt.

Seat belts should be worn by all
vehicle occupants, for every journey,
no matter how short.

When using seat belts to restrain
items other than occupants, take care
to ensure that the belts are not
damaged, or exposed to sharp edges.

24

Occupant safety

The use of comfort clips, or devices
that would create slackness in the
seat belt system, is not advised.

SEAT BELT CHECKS

Note: If the vehicle is parked on an incline, the
seat belt mechanism may lock. This is a safety
feature and the belt should be gently eased out
from the upper anchorage.

The seat belts should be inspected regularly to
check for fraying, cuts or wear to the webbing,
and the condition and security of the
mechanism, buckles, adjusters, and mounting
points.

• With the seat belt fastened, give the
webbing near the buckle a quick upward
pull. The buckle must remain securely
locked.

• With the seat belt unfastened, unreel the
seat belt to the limit of its travel. Check that
it unreels smoothly with no snatches or
snags. Allow the belt to fully retract, again
checking for smooth operation.

• Partially unreel the seat belt, then hold the
tongue plate and give a quick forward pull.
The mechanism must lock and prevent any
further unreeling.

If any of the seat belts fail to meet those
criteria, immediately contact your Dealer/
Authorised Repairer.

SEAT BELT WARNING LAMP

The warning lamp in the
instrument panel stays illuminated
when the driver’s or front
passenger’s seat belt is not
fastened (if the passenger seat is
occupied). The lamp should
extinguish when the seat belt is
fastened.

The warning lamp will also flash in conjunction
with the Beltminder warning chime.

BELTMINDER

A front and rear seat Beltminder system warns
the driver when the seat belt of an occupied
seat is not fastened or is unfastened during a
journey.

A graphic in the message centre indicates
which seat belts are fastened at the start of a
journey and also when a seat belt is fastened or
unfastened during a journey.

Each seating position is represented by a
passenger icon, the colour of which indicates
the seat belt status:

• No colour - seat belt not fastened.

• Green - seat belt fastened.

• Red - driver’s or occupied front seat

passenger’s seat belt is not fastened or is
unfastened during a journey.

In addition, an audible warning will sound
under the following conditions:

• The driver’s or occupied front seat
passenger’s seat belt is not fastened or is
unfastened during a journey.

• A rear seat belt is unfastened.

Note: If a heavy object is placed on the front
passenger seat, it may activate the Beltminder
feature. It is recommended that the object be
placed in the luggage compartment or secured
using the seat belt.

25

Occupant safety

Note: Although not advisable, it is possible to
disable the Beltminder function. Please see
your Dealer/Authorised Repairer to disable or
re-instate the function.

CHILD SEATS

For optimum safety, children should
travel in the rear of the vehicle at all
times; front passenger seat travel is
not recommended. However, if it is
essential that a child travels in the
front, set the vehicle seat fully
rearward and seat the child in an
approved forward-facing child seat.
Do not use a rear-facing child seat - an
inflating airbag could impact with the
seat and cause serious injury.

Do not use a forward facing child seat
until the child using it is above the
minimum weight of 9 kg (20 lb.) and
able to sit up unaided. Up to the age of
two, a child's spine and neck are not
sufficiently developed to avoid injury
in a frontal impact.

Do not allow a baby or infant to be
held or carried on the lap. The force of
a crash can increase effective body
weight by as much as thirty times,
making it impossible to hold onto the
child.

Children typically require the use of a
booster seat appropriate to their age
and size, thereby enabling the seat
belts to be properly fitted, reducing
the risk of injury in a crash. Children
could be endangered in a crash if their
child restraints are not properly
secured in the vehicle.

Do not use a child seat that hooks over
the seat back. This type of seat cannot
be satisfactorily secured and is
unlikely to be safe for your child.

The seat belts fitted to your vehicle are
designed for adults and larger children. It is
very important for all infants and children
under 12 years of age to be restrained in a
suitable child safety seat appropriate to their
age and size.

If it is essential that a child travels in the front
passenger seat (and national legislation
permits this), Jaguar recommends that the
following preparations are made before fitting
the child restraint.

• Adjust the front passenger seat fully
rearwards.

• Adjust the lumbar support to its minimum
support position.

• Adjust the seat cushion to its highest
position. If cushion front tilt adjustment is
possible, adjust it to its lowest position.

• Adjust the seat back to the fully upright
position.

• Adjust the seat belt adjustable upper
anchorage to its lowest position.

Extreme hazard! Do not use a
rearward facing child restraint on a
seat protected by an airbag in front of
it.

This symbol, affixed to the end of the fascia on
the passenger side, warns against the use of a
rear-facing child seat in the front passenger
seat, when a front passenger airbag is fitted
and operational.

Occupant safety

CHILD RESTRAINT CHECK LIST

Every time a child travels in the vehicle observe
the following:-

• Use appropriate child restraints.

• Carefully follow the restraint system

manufacturers instructions.

• Adjust the harnesses for every child on
every trip.

• Ensure that all slack is removed from the
adult seat belt.

• Always attach the top tether when
installing an ISOFIX seat.

• Always check the security of the child
restraint.

• Do not dress a child in bulky clothing, or
place any objects/padding between the
child and the restraint.

• Regularly check the fit and condition of
child restraints. If the fit is poor, or
wear/damage is visible replace the restraint
immediately.

• Set a good example - always wear your
seat belt.

Occupant safety

* Jaguar recommend that the front passenger
seat be positioned fully rearward, with the
cushion adjusted to the highest position when
installing child restraints.

Note: Ages given are approximate. In case of
doubt, the child’s weight, not age, should be
used when considering an appropriate child
seat.

BOOSTER CUSHIONS

In a situation where a child is too large to fit
into a child safety seat, but is still too small to
safely fit the three point belt properly, a booster
seat is recommended for maximum safety.
Follow the manufacturer's instructions for
fitting and use, then adjust the seat belt to suit.

INSTALLING TETHER ANCHORAGE CHILD RESTRAINTS

1. Install the child restraint securely in one of

the rear seating positions.

2. Pass the tether strap over the seat back and

beneath the head restraint.

3. Attach the tether strap hook to the tether

anchor point on the back of the seat.
Ensure that the tether strap hook is facing
the correct way. See 22, USING SEAT

BELTS AND CHILD SAFETY LOCKS.

4. Tighten the tether strap according to the

manufacturer's instructions.

If the restraint is not correctly
anchored, there is a significant risk of
injury to the child in the event of a
collision or emergency braking.

Child restraint anchorages are
designed to withstand only those
loads imposed by correctly fitted child
restraints. Under no circumstances
are they to be used for adult seat
belts, harnesses or for attaching other
items or equipment to the vehicle.

If removing the centre head restraint
in order to fit a child restraint, always
secure the head restraint when storing
it.

Both of the outer rear seat positions are
equipped to accept ISOFIX restraints.

This symbol is shown on a label
sewn into the seats to indicate the
position of the ISOFIX lower
anchorages.

ISOFIX ANCHOR POINTS (not Australia)

Do not attempt to fit ISOFIX restraints
to the centre rear seating position.
The anchor bars are not designed to
hold an ISOFIX restraint in this
position.

AIRBAGS AND ACTIVE HEAD RESTRAINTS

1. Airbag warning information is printed on

the driver and passenger sun visors.

2. Both front seats are equipped with Active

Head Restraints (AHR) which reduce the
risk of neck and spinal injury (whiplash) in
the event of a rear impact by moving the
head restraint upwards and forwards,
supporting the occupant’s head.

After activation, the whiplash protection
mechanism resets automatically and does
not need to be replaced.

30

3. The curtain airbags may deflate at a slower

rate than the front or side airbags, to afford
prolonged protection.

4. Seat mounted side airbags.

5. Front passenger airbag.

6. Driver’s airbag.

Note: The general location of airbags fitted to
the vehicle are marked by the word AIRBAG.

Always contact your Dealer/Authorised
Repairer if:

• An airbag inflates.

Occupant safety

• The front or sides of the vehicle are
damaged.

• Any part of the Airbag Supplementary
Restraint System (SRS) shows signs of
cracking or damage, including trim
covering airbags.

AIRBAG OPERATION

For the airbags to operate correctly
the roof lining and door post trims
must be in good condition, correctly
fitted, and free from obstruction. Any
damage, wear, or incorrect fitment
should be referred to your
Dealer/Authorised Repairer as soon
as possible for examination and
repair.

Do not obstruct the operation of the
airbags by placing any part of their
person or any objects in contact with,
or close to, an airbag module. Only
use approved accessories (e.g. seat
covers).

Ensure that a gap is maintained
between the side of the vehicle, and
the head and torso. This will enable
unobstructed inflation of the curtain,
and seat mounted side airbags.

Airbags inflate at high speeds. To
minimise the risk of injury, ensure
that all vehicle occupants wear
correctly positioned seat belts, sit
correctly in the seats, and position the
seats as far back as practical.

Airbag inflation takes place
instantaneously, and cannot protect
against the effects of secondary
impacts. Under these circumstances
the only protection will be provided by
a correctly worn seat belt.

Phone systems should only be
installed by qualified persons familiar
with the operation of, and
requirements for, vehicles fitted with
SRS. If you are in any doubt, seek
advice from your Dealer/Authorised
Repairer.

Airbag deployment is dependent on the rate at
which the passenger compartment changes
velocity following the collision. Circumstances
affecting different collisions (vehicle speed,
angle of impact, type and size of object hit,
etc.), vary considerably and will affect the rate
of deceleration accordingly.

The Supplementary Restraint System (SRS)
components include:-

• SRS warning indicator.

• Rotary coupler.

• Airbag modules.

• Seat belt pre-tensioners (front seat belts).

• Airbag diagnostic control unit.

• Crash sensors.

• Airbag wiring harnesses.

The SRS is not designed to operate as a result
of:

• Rear impacts.

• Minor front impacts.

• Minor side impacts.

• Heavy braking.

• Driving over bumps and pot holes.

Therefore, it follows that considerable
superficial damage to the vehicle can occur,
without causing the airbags to deploy.

31

Occupant safety

AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT EFFECTS

When an airbag inflates, a fine
powder is released. This is normal
and not an indication of a malfunction.
The powder may cause irritation to the
skin and should be thoroughly flushed
from eyes and any cuts or abrasions.

Airbag deployment is accompanied by
a very loud noise which may cause
discomfort and temporary loss of
hearing.

AIRBAG WARNING LAMP

The airbag warning indicator is
mounted in the instrument panel,
and will illuminate as a bulb check
when the ignition is switched on.

If the warning indicator signals that a
fault is present in the system, do not
use a child restraint on the front
passenger seat.

If any of the following warning indicator
conditions occur, the vehicle should be
checked by your Dealer/Authorised Repairer
immediately.

• The warning indicator fails to illuminate
when the START/STOP button is initially
switched on.

• The warning indicator fails to extinguish
within six seconds of the START/STOP
button being switched on.

• The warning indicator illuminates at any
time other than during the bulb check.

AIRBAG SERVICE INFORMATION

Do not attempt to service, repair,
replace, modify, or tamper with, any
part of the SRS. This includes wiring
or components in the vicinity of SRS
components. Doing so may cause the
system to trigger, or render the
system inoperative.

Do not use any electrical test
equipment or devices in the vicinity of
SRS components or wiring. Doing so
may cause the system to trigger, or
render the system inoperative.

All of the following operations should only be
carried out by a Dealer/Authorised Repairer, or
suitably qualified person:-

• Removal or repair of any wiring or
component in the vicinity of any SRS
components.

• Installation of electrical, or electronic,
equipment and accessories.

• Modification to the front or sides of the
vehicle exterior.

• Attachment of accessories to the front or
sides of the vehicle.

again to switch off.

Note: In some markets, a second press will
illuminate the reverse lamps and a third press
is required to turn the lamps off.

ADAPTIVE FRONT LIGHTING SYSTEM (AFS)

Adaptive front lighting is designed to give the
driver improved visibility, using a swivelling
headlamp unit, a static bending lamp and a
cornering lamp. These lamps broaden the
beam of the headlamps when cornering in
different circumstances.

The headlamp unit swivels accordingly when
cornering, to improve light spread on bends in
the road.

Static bending lamps: The static bending
lamps operate when necessary, to provide an
even broader light spread.

Cornering lamps: At speeds up to 40 km/h (25
mph), to provide improved visibility at
junctions, the system switches on the lamp if it
has received an input from the vehicle's
direction indicator. Only the lamp on the same
side as the operating indicator illuminates. The
lamp will self cancel after 3 minutes of
continuous operation.

WINDSCREEN WIPER DETECTION

This function only operates when autolamps is
selected. The side lamps, tail lamps and
headlamps will switch on automatically if the
windscreen wipers are switched on for 20
seconds or more. Once the windscreen wipers
are switched off, the side lamps and headlamps
will automatically switch off two minutes later.

AUTO HIGH BEAM

This feature automatically selects and
deselects high beam, under specific conditions
of road lighting and in the absence of other
vehicle’s lights. The system is only active when
the ambient light drops below a predetermined
level.

This function is only active if the rotary control
is in the AUTO position and the stalk is in the
central position.

The system will only activate when vehicle
speed exceeds 25 mph (40 km/h). The system
will deactivate when vehicle speed drops below
15 mph (24 km/h).

Note: Auto high beam does not operate when
reverse gear is selected.

To manually select high beam, move the stalk
to the high beam position as normal. To return
to Auto high beam, move the stalk back to the
central position.

To manually override to low beam from high
beam, pull the stalk to the flash position and
auto high beam will be cancelled. To return to
auto high beam, push the stalk to the high
beam position and then return it to the central
position.

When auto high beam is enabled,
the system indicator will
illuminate.

Note: The following may affect the operation of
auto high beam:-

* Highly reflective road signs.

* Vehicles with dim headlamps.

* Adverse weather conditions.

* Dirty sensor.

* Dirty, damaged, or misted windscreen.

34

To turn off auto high beam, turn the rotary
control from AUTO to headlamps on.

The Auto high beam feature can be disabled/
enabled via the Vehicle set-up area of the
instrument panel menu.

Note: Ensure that the sensor in the rear view
mirror is not blocked or obstructed.

HEADLAMPS - DRIVING ABROAD

There are two types of headlamps:

1. Manually adjusted lamps.

2. Adjustment free lamps.

Manual headlamp beam adjustment: The

headlamp beam pattern can only be changed

Adjustment free headlamps: If the headlamps
are marked with the above symbols which are
found on top of the headlamp, no mechanical
adjustment is required or the need for any
external obscuration decals.

These headlamps are fully compliant with
current homologation requirements in all ECE
countries.

HEADLAMPS - CONDENSATION

In certain circumstances, misting may occur
on the inside of a lamp lens. This is caused by
natural changes in environmental conditions.
This misting is not detrimental to lamp
performance and will clear during normal
usage.

5. Windscreen washer button.

6. Single wipe.

Do not operate the windscreen wipers
on a dry screen.

In freezing or very hot conditions,
ensure that the wipers have not stuck to
the windscreen before operating.

Remove any snow, ice or frost from the
windscreen, around the wiper arms and
blades, and the screen scuttle, before
operating the wipers.

Note: If the wiper blades become stuck or
jammed, an electronic cut-out may temporarily
halt wiper operation. If this happens, switch off
the wipers and the ignition. Clear any
obstructions and free the wiper blades, before
attempting to switch on the ignition.

SPEED-DEPENDENT MODE

If vehicle speed drops below 2 km/h (1.2 mph)
with the wipers operating, the wipers will
switch to the next lowest speed. When vehicle
speed increases to over 8 km/h (5 mph), the
original wiper speed settings are restored.

RAIN SENSOR

Ensure that the wipers are switched off
before entering a car wash. If the rain
sensitive wipers operate during the car
washing process damage may occur to
the wiper mechanism.

The rain sensor is able to detect the presence
and amount of rain, dirt or snow on the
windscreen and automatically activates the
windscreen wipers accordingly. Static droplets
may not be detected on initial start-up, use a
single wipe to clear the screen.

To activate the rain sensitive wipers, move the
wiper stalk to the rain sensor position and
adjust the rain sensor sensitivity control as
required. When rain sensitive wipers are
activated and when sensitivity is increased, a
single wipe will operate.

DRIP WIPE

If the drip wipe function is configured, the
wipers will operate four seconds after a
wash/wipe cycle has finished, to clear any
remaining drips from the windscreen.

This function can be
enabled/disabled by your
Dealer/Authorised Repairer.

HEADLAMP WASHERS

Headlamp power wash operates automatically
with the windscreen wash, and will only
operate if the headlamps are switched on and
there is sufficient washer fluid in the reservoir.

Headlamp wash operates with every fourth
operation of the screen washers, provided that
ten minutes have elapsed since the last
operation of the headlamp washers.

Note: The power wash sequence is reset when
the headlamps or the ignition are turned off.

Headlamp power wash is inhibited when the

Anti-trap protection is designed to stop
window movement if an obstruction or
resistance is detected. Check the window and
its aperture and remove any obstructions. The
override procedure is as follows:-

1. Attempt to close the window. Anti-trap will

prevent closure and lower the window.

2. Within ten seconds, attempt to raise the

window again. Anti-trap will prevent
closure and lower the window.

3. Attempt to close the window for a third

time, this time holding the switch in the
close position. The window will raise whilst
the switch is held. Hold until closed.

Note: If this procedure fails to remove the
blockage, or if the windows do not operate
correctly, the window operation may need to be
reset. See 157, WINDOW RESET.

Blind spot monitoring

BLIND SPOT MONITOR

The Blind Spot Monitor (BSM) system
is a supplement to, not a replacement
for, a safe driving style and use of the
exterior and rear-view mirrors.

Please note that BSM may not be able
to give adequate warning of vehicles
approaching very quickly from behind
or vehicles that are being overtaken
rapidly.

BSM may not be able to detect all
vehicles and may also detect objects,
such as roadside barriers, etc.

Blind spot monitoring

The radar sensors may be impaired by
rain, snow or road spray. This may
affect the system's ability to reliably
detect a vehicle/object within the
blind spot.

Ensure that the warning indicators in
the exterior mirrors are not obscured by
stickers or other objects.

Do not attach stickers or objects to the
rear bumpers, that may interfere with
the radar sensors.

The Blind Spot Monitor (BSM) system
monitors a zone that covers the area adjacent
to the vehicle, that is not easily visible by the
driver and is designed to identify any object
overtaking the vehicle (3). The system uses a
radar on each side of the vehicle to identify any
overtaking vehicle/object within the blind spot
area of the vehicle, while disregarding other
objects which may be stationary or travelling in
the opposite direction, etc.

If an object is identified by the system as being
an overtaking vehicle/object, an amber
warning icon (1) illuminates in the relevant
exterior mirror, to alert the driver that there is a
potential hazard in the vehicle's blind spot and
therefore, that a lane change might be
dangerous.

The radar monitors the area extending from the
exterior mirror rearwards, to approximately 6
metres (20 feet) behind the rear wheels, and up
to 2.5 metres (8.2 feet) from the side of the
vehicle (the width of a typical carriageway
lane).

43

Blind spot monitoring

Note: This radar sensor is approved in all RTTE
countries.

Note: The system covers an area of a fixed lane
width. If the lanes are narrower than a typical
carriageway lane, objects travelling in
non-adjacent lanes may be detected.

BSM automatically switches on and becomes
active when the vehicle is travelling at more
than 16 km/h (10 mph) in a forward gear.
When the system initiates, it performs a
self-check, during which the warning icons in
the mirrors illuminate alternately for a short
period of time.

The indicator dot (2) remains illuminated until
forward vehicle speed exceeds 16 km/h (10
mph).

BSM can be turned off in the Vehicle settings
area of the instrument panel menu. See 53,
INTERACTIVE CONTROLS .

BSM is designed to work most effectively when
driving on multi-lane highways.

Note: If an overtaking vehicle is detected on
both sides of the vehicle simultaneously, the
warning icons in both mirrors will illuminate.

Note: BSM is automatically turned off when
reverse (R) gear is selected, when the vehicle is
in park (P), the vehicle is travelling below 16
km/h (10 mph). Under these conditions, an
amber warning indicator within the exterior
mirror is displayed.

Note: Blockage testing is only initiated when
vehicle speed is above 32 km/h (20 mph) and
will take at least two minutes of accumulated
driving above this speed, to determine that the
sensor is blocked.

If the sensors become blocked, then please
check that there is nothing obscuring the rear
bumper and that it is clear from ice, frost and
dirt.

BSM SYSTEM FAULT

If a fault with one of the radar sensors is
detected, an amber warning indicator dot is
displayed in the exterior mirror and the
message BSM not available is displayed in the
message centre.

Note: Even if the detected fault only affects the
radar sensor on one side of the vehicle, the
whole system is disabled. If the fault is
temporary, the system will operate correctly
once the engine has been switched off and then
on again.

If a fault in the system occurs, consult your
Dealer/Authorised Repairer.

SENSOR BLOCKAGE

The BSM system will automatically disable if
either of the sensors become completely
obscured, an amber warning indicator dot (2)
is displayed in the exterior mirror and the
message BSM sensor blocked appears in the
message centre.

Garage door opener

Garage door opener

GARAGE DOOR TRANSCEIVER

Do not use the transceiver with any
garage door opener that lacks the
safety stop and reverse feature as
required by safety standards.

When programming the transceiver to
a garage door opener or entry gate,
ensure the area is clear. This will
prevent potential harm or damage as
the gate or garage door will activate
during the programme.

This device may suffer from
interference if operated in the vicinity of
a mobile or fixed station transmitter.
This interference is likely to affect the
hand-held transmitter as well as the
in-car transceiver.

The door transceiver is located in the rear-view
mirror. It can be programmed to transmit the
radio frequencies of up to three different
transmitters, which can be used to operate
garage doors, entry gates, home lighting,
security systems or other radio frequency
operated devices.

Although this section mainly describes the
procedures for a garage door opener, it equally
applies to the previously mentioned
applications.

In some countries, this feature is also known
as the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver.

For further information, see 47,

INFORMATION AND ASSISTANCE .

BEFORE PROGRAMMING

When programming a device that may
require you to press and re-press the
hand-held transmitter (cycle), unplug
the device during the cycling process to
prevent possible motor failure.

For best results, fit a new battery to the
hand-held transmitter of the garage door
opener (or other device) before programming.
If your garage door opener receiver (located in
the garage) is equipped with an antenna,
ensure that the antenna is hanging straight
down.

PROGRAMMING

Ensuring that the engine is switched off:

1. Ensure that the ignition system is on.

2. Hold the end of the original garage door

opener hand-held transmitter 50 to 150
mm (2 to 6 inches) away from the
transceiver in the rear-view mirror, keeping
the indicator lamp in view.

3. Using both hands, simultaneously press

and hold both the chosen transceiver
button on the rear-view mirror, as shown
above, and the hand-held transmitter
button. Keep both buttons pressed. The
indicator lamp will flash slowly at first and
then change to a fast flash. When the
indicator lamp flashes rapidly, release both
buttons. The rapid flashing lamp indicates
successful programming.

4. If, after 60 seconds, the indicator lamp

does not flash rapidly, release both the
transceiver and the hand-held transmitter
buttons and repeat the procedure starting
with Step 2. Position the hand-held
transmitter at a different angle and/or
distance.

MODE).

2. Press and hold the two outer buttons on

the transceiver in the rear-view mirror.
Keep the buttons pressed until the
indicator lamp begins to flash (this will take
approximately 20 seconds), then release
the buttons.

All memories in the garage door opener have
now been cleared.

Note: Do not perform this procedure when
programming the additional garage door
opener buttons.

ROLLING CODE DEVICE EQUIPMENT PROGRAMMING

Note: The assistance of a second person, may
make the following steps quicker and easier.
Once the button has been pressed there are
only 30 seconds in which to complete Step 3.

1. At the garage door opener receiver (motor

head unit) in the garage, locate the learn or
smart button/switch. The name of the
button or switch may vary between
manufacturers.

2. Press and release the learn or smart

button.

3. Return to the vehicle and firmly press and

hold the programmed garage door opener
button for two seconds and release.

4. Repeat the press, hold, release sequence

three times to complete the programming
process.

The garage door opener in the rear-view mirror
should now activate the rolling code device.

REPROGRAMMING A SINGLE GARAGE DOOR OPENER BUTTON

To programme a device to a previously
programmed button:

1. Press and hold the desired

pre-programmed garage door opener
button for at least 20 seconds, but no
longer than 30 seconds, until the indicator
lamp begins to flash.

2. Without releasing the rear-view mirror

button, position the hand-held transmitter
approximately 50 to 150 mm (2 to 6
inches) away from the transceiver in the
rear-view mirror, keeping the indicator
lamp in view.

3. Carry out Step 3 of Programming.

Gearbox

JAGUARDRIVE SELECTOR

The JaguarDrive selector elevates out of the
centre console when the engine is started, in
readiness for gear selection

P should be selected before switching off the
engine. However, it is possible to switch the
engine off with R, D or S selected - the selector
will automatically select P, while retracting into
the centre console.

Note: If the engine is switched off with N
selected, the system will wait for 10 minutes
before selecting P. This procedure is to allow
the vehicle to be conveyed through a car wash
only and should not be used for vehicle
recovery purposes.

To prevent the transmission from
automatically selecting P (e.g. for vehicle
recovery purposes) it is necessary to activate
the Emergency Park Release. Vehicle recovery
should only be undertaken by qualified
personnel.

IF THE SELECTOR FAILS TO ELEVATE

If the JaguarDrive selector is obstructed
remove the obstruction and then start the
engine. The selector should elevate as normal.

If the selector still fails to elevate, even if there
is no obstruction, a fault in the system is
indicated. The selector can still be used in the
lowered position, but be aware that it will not
automatically select P when the engine is
switched off. P should be selected manually.
The fault should be rectified by a Dealer/
Authorised Repairer at the earliest opportunity.

If continued use of manual mode is required,
the gear selector may be subsequently moved
to the S position to enter permanent manual
mode.

If the gear selector remains in the D position,
temporary manual mode will be held whilst the
driver is accelerating, decelerating, cornering
or continuing to request shifts via the paddles.

LIMP-HOME MODE

Note: The driver should be aware that the
vehicle’s performance will be reduced and
must take this into account when driving. Also
the use of the Jaguar Sequential Shift paddles
will be disabled. In this event, seek qualified
assistance as soon as possible.

In the event of an electrical or mechanical
failure, transmission operation will be limited.
P, R, N, D and S may still be used to enable the
vehicle to be driven to a safe area.

Some faults will cause the selector to be locked
in position until the ignition is switched off. If
the selected range flashes, it signifies that the
driver request cannot be engaged. Re-select N
and repeat the attempt.

If the transmission is still unable to select the
requested gear, contact your Dealer/
Authorised Repairer.

TEMPORARY MANUAL GEAR SELECTION

When the gear selector is in the D position,
manual mode may be directly accessed by the
single action of operating the steering wheel
mounted shift paddles.

73

Stability control

Stability control

WINTER MODE

DYNAMIC MODE

Press for at least one second to
operate. Designed for use in
slippery conditions. When active,
Winter mode selects 2nd gear for
driving away on level ground (no
incline), softens the
responsiveness of the engine and
modifies the gear change strategy.
This helps ensure that optimum
traction is maintained.

Winter mode optimises stability of the vehicle
to suit slippery conditions, when grip is
reduced. This helps the vehicle to perform in a
more gentle and controlled manner, to avoid
skidding, allowing more confident progress
under adverse conditions.

If conditions result in reduced traction being
perceived, use of TRAC DSC or DSC OFF may
improve progress, provided that the correct
tyres for the conditions are fitted.

Note: Winter mode cannot be active at the
same time as Dynamic mode. Winter mode will
remain selected, even after the ignition is
switched off. Winter mode must be deselected
if no longer required.

Press for at least one second to
operate. Dynamic mode
co-ordinates the vehicle's control
systems to deliver a high
performance driving experience.
This setting enhances key vehicle
systems so that the vehicle's full
potential can be exploited. The
vehicle's responses are aimed at
involving the driver more in
focused and purposeful driving.

When dynamic mode is selected, TracDSC is
automatically selected.

Note: When the transmission is set to
permanent manual mode and Dynamic mode is
selected, transmission upshifts are fully
controlled by the driver. The transmission will
not change up automatically, even when the rev
limit is reached (the gear position indicator in
the message centre will glow amber, to indicate
that the next gear should be selected).

Note: Dynamic mode cannot be active at the
same time as Winter mode. Dynamic mode will
remain selected for approximately six hours
after the ignition is switched off, after which
point it will need to be reselected if required.

74

Stability control

TRACDSC

TracDSC should only be used when
necessary for the prevailing
conditions.

TracDSC optimises the DSC settings for
maximum traction in difficult conditions, such
as packed snow. This makes greater traction
available, without having to completely lose the
benefits of DSC. However, vehicle stability may
be reduced. The less restrictive settings of
TracDSC also enable a more involving and
focused driving experience.

Conditions where the use of TracDSC would be
advantageous or necessary:

• On packed snow.

• To help maintain the movement of the

vehicle on soft or loose surfaces (e.g.
gravel or sand).

• When snow chains are fitted and
JaguarDrive Control special modes are off
(or switch DSC off in Winter mode).

• To maximise driver involvement.

Note: When DSC is off with Winter mode
selected, the vehicle retains a reduced level of
DSC control, but the parameters are optimised
for use with snow chains.

• The warning lamp will flash when DSC or
Trac DSC is active (cruise control will
automatically disengage if this occurs).

SWITCHING DSC OFF

• Press and hold the DSC switch for more
than 10 seconds.

• The message centre will display DSC OFF
and a short warning chime will sound.

• The warning lamp in the instrument panel
will illuminate.

SWITCHING DSC ON

• Press and release the DSC switch.

• The DSC system will switch on, the

message centre will temporarily display
DSC ON.

• The warning lamp in the instrument panel
will be extinguished.

Note: Switching the engine off and then on
again, will always revert DSC status to DSC ON,
regardless of which mode is selected.

STABILITY CONTROL WARNING LAMPS

SWITCHING BETWEEN DSC AND TRACDSC

Press and hold the DSC switch for
less than 10 seconds. The
message centre will temporarily
display either Trac DSC or DSC
ON.

• The warning lamp in the instrument panel
will illuminate while Trac DSC is selected.

Flashes when DSC is active.

If there is a fault, this warning lamp will
illuminate in the instrument panel and the
message centre will display STABILITY

75

Stability control

The vehicle can still be driven, but the DSC
system will not activate under wheel spin or
slide conditions. You should seek qualified
assistance as soon as possible.

If DSC is switched off, this
warning lamp will illuminate in the
instrument panel, the message
DSC OFF is displayed and a
warning chime will sound.

ADAPTIVE DYNAMICS

Jaguar adaptive dynamics continuously
monitors the road and driver inputs and
optimises the vehicle suspension settings for
ride comfort and control.

The adaptive dynamics system is linked to
Dynamic mode, modifying the suspension
settings for a more sporting character.

If ADAPTIVE DYNAMICS FAULT is displayed in
the message centre, the vehicle can still be
driven, but seek qualified assistance to have
the fault rectified.

ACTIVE DIFFERENTIAL CONTROL (Supercharged vehicles only)

The Active differential control (E-diff) improves
traction on uneven road surfaces and can also
improve stability in oversteer situations.

If the warning message EDIFF SYSTEM FAULT
is displayed and DSC is off, then TracDSC will
be automatically selected. The vehicle can still
be driven and DSC modes can be selected, but
seek qualified assistance as soon as possible.

If the warning message EDIFF NOT AVAILABLE
is displayed, the system has temporarily shut
down to prevent overheating. The vehicle can
still be driven and the E-diff will be operational
again when the system has cooled sufficiently.

Brakes

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Do not rest your foot on the brake
pedal whilst the vehicle is in motion.

Never allow the vehicle to coast
(freewheel) with the engine turned off.
The engine must be running to provide
full braking assistance. The brakes
will still function with the engine off,
but far more pressure will be required
to operate them.

If the red brake warning lamp
illuminates, safely bring the vehicle to
a stop, as quickly as possible. Seek
qualified assistance before
proceeding.

Never place non-approved floor
matting or any other obstructions
under the brake pedal. This restricts
pedal travel and braking efficiency.

Driving through heavy rain or water can have
an adverse effect on braking efficiency. Under
such circumstances, it is recommended that
you lightly apply the brakes intermittently to
dry the brakes.

BRAKE WARNING LAMPS

If this red warning lamp
illuminates while driving and/or
the message LOW BRAKE FLUID
is displayed in the message
centre, check the brake fluid level
at the earliest opportunity and
top-up as required.

If this amber warning lamp
illuminates while driving and/or
ABS FAULT is displayed in the
message centre, drive with extra
caution, avoid heavy braking
where possible, and seek qualified
assistance as soon as possible.

ELECTRONIC BRAKE FORCE DISTRIBUTION (EBD)

EBD balances the distribution of braking forces
between the wheels on the front and rear axles,
to maintain maximum braking under all vehicle
loading conditions.

For example; Under light loads, EBD applies
less braking effort to the rear wheels, to
maintain stability. Conversely, it allows full
braking effort to the rear wheels when the
vehicle is heavily laden.

A fault with the EBD system is indicated by the
red brake warning lamp and the message EBD
FAULT. The braking system will still operate,
but without EBD assistance. Seek qualified
assistance to have the fault rectified.

EMERGENCY BRAKE ASSIST (EBA)

The EBA system measures the rate at which the
brake pressure increases. If the system detects
an emergency braking situation, EBA
automatically initiates full braking effect. This
can reduce stopping distances in critical
situations.

A fault with the EBA system is indicated by the
brake warning lamp illuminating and
Emergency Brake Assist Not Available
displaying in the message centre. The braking
system will still function, but without EBA
assistance. Seek qualified assistance to have
the fault rectified.

78

Brakes

ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE (EPB)

The switch which operates the parking brake is
mounted on the centre console to the rear of
the gear selector.

To disengage the parking brake (1): With the
ignition system on or with the engine running,
apply the foot brake and press the parking
brake switch down.

If the parking brake is applied while the vehicle
is stationary and D or R is selected, applying
the throttle will automatically release the
parking brake.

The parking brake is also automatically
released when the gear selector is moved from
the P position.

If the parking brake is inadvertently applied
when the vehicle is moving at above 3 km/h
(1.8 mph), Caution! Park Brake Applied is
displayed in the message centre, the warning
indicator in the instrument panel will illuminate
and a warning chime will sound.

If the parking brake is applied whilst the vehicle
is moving, releasing the switch will disengage
the parking brake. The parking brake cannot be
applied when the vehicle is moving, if the
accelerator pedal is pressed.

Note: If the vehicle is in motion, the parking
brake should only be used as an emergency
brake.

Always apply the parking brake when
the vehicle is parked.

To engage the parking brake (2): Pull the
parking brake switch upwards and release. The
switch will return to the neutral position.

The Parking brake warning lamp
on the instrument panel will
illuminate.

The Drive Away Release feature allows the
parking brake to release automatically as the
vehicle is driven away.

The warning lamp in the instrument panel will
remain on for a short time, if the parking brake
is applied when the ignition system is reverted
to the convenience mode.

If a fault in the system is detected, Park Brake
Fault or Cannot Apply Park Brake will be
displayed in the message centre. Seek qualified
assistance as soon as possible.

If the battery has been discharged or
disconnected, Apply Foot And Park Brake will
be displayed in the message centre when the
ignition is next switched on. Depress the foot
brake and pull the parking brake switch up to
apply the parking brake. This is required to
reset the parking brake system. The parking
brake will now function correctly.

79

Tyre pressure monitoring system

Tyre pressure monitoring system

TYRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)

The TPM system provides a low
pressure warning and does not
re-inflate your tyres. Tyre pressures
should be checked regularly using an
accurate pressure gauge when cold.

The TPM system can NOT register
damage to a tyre. Regularly check the
condition of your tyres, especially if
the vehicle is driven off-road.

When inflating tyres, care should be
taken to avoid bending or damaging the
TPM system valves. Always ensure
correct alignment of the inflation head
to the valve stem.

Note: Non-approved accessories may interfere
with the system. If this occurs, TYRE
PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM FAULT is
displayed in the message centre.

Wheels fitted with a TPM system can be
visually identified by the external metal lock nut
and valve (1). All Jaguar non-TPM system
wheels have a rubber valve fitted (2).

TPMS OPERATION

The TPM system monitors pressure of the
tyres via sensors located in each wheel and a
receiver located within the vehicle.
Communication between sensor and receiver
is via Radio Frequency (RF) signals.

If the telltale light illuminates, you should stop
and check your tyres as soon as possible and
inflate them to the recommended pressure as
stated on the tyre pressure placard. If low
pressure warnings occur frequently, the cause
must be determined and rectified.

When driving through variable climatic
conditions the TPM system warnings may be
intermittent.

Your vehicle will also indicate a TPM system
malfunction by initially flashing and
subsequent continuous illumination of the
warning telltale. A text message will
accompany the system malfunction and will
display TYRE PRESSURE MONITORING
SYSTEM FAULT. The TPM system fault
sequence will be activated at every ignition
cycle until the fault is rectified. When a
malfunction occurs, the system may not be
able to detect or signal low tyre pressure as
intended.

TPM system malfunctions may occur for a
variety of reasons which may include other
radio frequency systems that could cause
interference or the installation of incompatible
replacement tyres on the vehicle.

The tyre pressure warning
comprises a yellow warning
telltale within the instrument panel
and the associated messages
within the message centre.

80

Tyre pressure monitoring system

TEMPORARY USE SPARE WHEEL AND TYRE CHANGE

If the temporary use spare wheel is fitted the
system will automatically recognise the change
in wheel positions. Then after approximately
ten minutes of driving above 25 km/h (18
mph), a message detailing which tyre is
affected (e.g. FRONT LEFT) and TYRE NOT
MONITORED will be displayed accompanied by
illumination of the warning telltale and the
corresponding block in the vehicle graphic.

The warning telltale will initially flash and will
subsequently revert to continuous illumination.
Extended use of the temporary use spare wheel
will produce an additional text message TYRE
PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM FAULT.

This TPM system display sequence will be
activated at every ignition cycle until the
temporary use spare wheel is replaced by a
fully operational full size wheel and tyre
assembly.

Always replace the temporary use wheel before
having TPM system faults investigated. The
fault may well be rectified with the fitment of a
fully operational full size running tyre in lieu of
the temporary use spare wheel assembly.

When sensors are fitted to the replacement
wheel and tyre set, the vehicle needs to be
driven until the TPM system recognizes the
sensors before TPM will be available (TYRE
PRESSURE MONITORING AVAILABLE is
displayed).

TYRE CHANGING

Always have your tyres serviced or changed by
a qualified technician.

Care must be taken to avoid contact between
the bead of the tyre and the sensor during
removal and refitting of the tyre, otherwise the
sensor may become damaged and or
inoperable.

Valve stem seal, washer, nut, valve core
and cap should be replaced at every tyre
change. Valve stem seal, washer and
nut must be replaced if valve retention
nut is loosened. Sensor units and nuts
must be refitted using correct torque
figures and associated profile. Damage
to the vehicle may result if these
precautions are not taken.

Sensors can be removed from the wheel by the
unscrewing of the valve retention nut.

TYRE PRESSURE MONITORING UNAVAILABLE

If all four running wheels and tyres are changed
for a set that are not fitted with TPM system
sensors (e.g. a set of winter wheels and tyres),
the message TYRE PRESSURE MONITORING
UNAVAILABLE is displayed. TPM system
sensors must be fitted to the wheels and tyres
for the system to be able to warn of low tyre
pressures.

REPLACEMENT TPMS SENSOR

Should the sensor require replacing, it should
be carried out by a Dealer/Authorised Repairer.

A replacement sensor must be fitted to a
running wheel in order to be recognised by the
system. The vehicle needs to be stationary for
15 minutes during the sensor fitment before
the system is ready to detect the new sensor.
The vehicle must be driven for a minimum of
fifteen minutes after the sensor change, and
then remain stationary for fifteen minutes to
activate full TPM system operation.

81

Tyre pressure monitoring system

If the TPM system warning for any wheel does
not clear, even after ensuring correct inflation
and driving for more than ten minutes above 25
km/h (18 mph), you should seek qualified
assistance as soon as possible.

82

Parking aids

PARKING AID OPERATION

Parking aids

1. Rear view camera. See 85, REAR VIEW
CAMERA.

2. Parking aid on/off switch.

3. Approximately 600 mm (24 inches).

4. Approximately 800 mm (31 inches).

5. Approximately 1800mm (71 inches).

It remains the driver’s responsibility
to detect obstacles and estimate the
vehicle’s distance from them. Some
overhanging objects, barriers, small
children, animals, thin obstructions or
painted surfaces may not be detected
by the system.

Systems using the same frequency
band as the front parking sensors, may
cause irregular tones to be emitted.

Note: The sensors are active when the gear
selector is in neutral, and in drive after moving
from reverse. Therefore, if an obstacle is
detected an audible warning tone will sound.

USING THE PARKING AID

The parking aid system switches off
when vehicle speed exceeds 15 km/h (9
mph) in drive (D), and will need to be
reselected again if needed.

83

Parking aids

When in reverse/neutral or drive, press the
switch (2) to turn the parking aid on (switch
indicator illuminates) and off.

A pop-up appears on the touch screen,
showing a plan view of the vehicle and the
immediate surrounding area. Touch the
pop-up to cancel this view.

When objects are detected the Park aid will
emit a warning tone which increases in
frequency as the vehicle gets closer to the
object and then becomes constant when the
obstacle is within 300 mm (12 inches).

If an obstacle is detected at the front or rear of
the vehicle, a warning tone will be heard from
the front or rear speakers respectively. The
speakers used will be nearest to the obstacle
i.e. rear speakers if the obstacle is behind the
vehicle.

Objects are detected within the approximate
operating ranges as shown in the illustration
(items 3, 4 and 5).

Note: The front parking aid provides an audible
proximity warning when driving forwards or
reversing.

Note: If a rear-view camera is fitted, when
reverse gear (R) is selected, the camera display
is selected automatically. To view the parking
aid display, touch the screen.

Note: The outer sensors will switch off if the
distance to an object increases or remains
constant for 3 seconds. The sensors will
reactivate automatically if a new object is
detected within the operating range, or if the
distance to the original object reduces.

• Select Volume presets, then use the + or -

soft keys alongside Parking aid to adjust
volume for both front and rear warning
tones.

REAR FITTED ACCESSORIES

Particular care must be taken when reversing
with rear fitted accessories, as the rear parking
aid will only indicate the distance from the
bumper to the obstacle.

CLEANING THE SENSORS

For reliable operation, the sensors in the front
and rear bumpers should be kept free from ice,
frost and grime.

Do not clean the sensors with abrasive
or sharp objects or materials.

When using a high pressure spray, only
spray the sensors briefly, from a
distance greater than 200 mm (8
inches).

PARKING AID SYSTEM FAULT

If the system has a fault when engaging reverse
gear or turning on the ignition, then a single,
three second tone will be heard and the
warning indicator in the parking aid switch will
flash for three seconds and then switch off. The
system is automatically disabled.

Note: The parking aid may emit spurious tones
if it detects a frequency tone using the same
band as the sensors (e.g. air brakes).

PARKING AID VOLUME

To set the volume of the parking aid warning
tones:

• Select Setup from the touch screen Home
menu, then select System.

84

REAR VIEW CAMERA

It remains the driver's responsibility
to detect obstacles and estimate the
vehicle's distance from them when
reversing.

When Reverse (R) is selected, the system uses
a camera to provide a wide-angle colour rear
view image on the touch screen.

The camera display has priority over the
parking aid display. To view the parking aid
display instead, or to cancel camera display at
any time, touch the display.

The display also incorporates graphic overlays,
indicating vehicle direction, width and
proximity to surrounding objects.

Note: The camera image will not be displayed;

* If Drive (D) is selected and the vehicle speed
is greater than 16 km/h (10 mph).

* If Drive (D) is selected for longer than 2
seconds.

Parking aids

A. Solid line: The projected wheel trajectory.

B. Dotted line: The safe working width of the

vehicle (including exterior mirrors).

C. Boot access guideline: Do not reverse

beyond this point if boot access is
required.

D. Vehicle bumper.

E. Parking sensor activation: A coloured area

appears, to indicate which rear sensor(s)
has been activated.

85

Cruise control

Cruise control

USING CRUISE CONTROL

The cruise (speed) control system can be used
by the driver to maintain a selected vehicle
speed above 30 km/h (18 mph).

1. SET (+): Press to engage cruise control
and set the current speed. It is also used to
increase the set speed until the desired
speed is obtained.

2. RES (Resume): Resumes the cruise
control set speed after it has been
disengaged.

3. CAN (Cancel): Press to disengage cruise
control. The set speed memory will be
retained.

4. (-): Press to decrease the set speed until
the desired speed is obtained.

SETTING VEHICLE SPEED

Only use cruise control when
conditions are favourable (e.g.
straight, dry, open roads with light
traffic).

In certain conditions, such as a steep
downhill gradient, the vehicle speed
may exceed the set cruising speed.
This is because engine braking is
unable to maintain or reduce the
vehicle speed. Driver intervention
may be required.

When you are travelling at the speed you
require press the set button.

Cruise control will engage and maintain the set
speed and you can remove your foot from the
accelerator pedal.

Note: Cruise control will automatically
disengage when the brake pedal is pressed or
when the vehicle speed falls below 30 km/h (18
mph).

CHANGING THE CRUISE SPEED

There are two ways to change the set speed:

• Accelerate or decelerate to the desired
speed then press the set button.

• Increase or decrease the speed by pressing
the speed adjustment buttons SET (+) or
(-) (1 or 4) until the desired speed is
obtained.

Note: The set speed can be increased or
decreased in steps of 2 km/h (1 mph), by
pressing the speed adjustment buttons (+) or
(-) briefly until the desired speed is obtained.

RESUMING THE SET SPEED

If the vehicle is accelerated above the set
speed, then the set speed will be resumed
when the accelerator pedal is released.

If the CAN button (3) or the brake pedal is
pressed, the cruise control will disengage but
the set speed memory will be retained. Press
RES (2) and the vehicle will return to the set
speed.

Note: Cruise control will not resume at speeds
below 30 km/h (18 mph).

RES should only be used if the driver is
aware of the set speed and intends to
return to it.

It is not recommended to resume set
speed when a low gear is selected as
excessive engine speeds will occur.

86

AUTOMATIC SWITCH OFF

Cruise control will switch off but the set speed
will remain in the memory when:

• The CAN button (3) is pressed.

• The brake pedal is pressed.

• Speed falls below 30 km/h (18 mph).

• Neutral, Park or Reverse gear is selected.

• Dynamic Stability Control is operating.

• The difference between the actual and set

speed is too great.

• When the vehicle reaches a maximum
speed of 192 km/h (120 mph).

• The accelerator pedal is used to accelerate
beyond the set speed for too long a period.

Cruise control will switch off and clear the
memory when:

• The ignition system is switched off.

• A fault occurs. The cruise control system

will switch off and cannot be used until the
fault is cleared.

Cruise control

87

Adaptive cruise control

Adaptive cruise control

ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL OVERVIEW

The Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) system is
designed to aid the driver to maintain a gap
from the vehicle ahead or a set road speed if
there is no slower vehicle ahead.

ACC is not a collision warning or
avoidance system. Additionally, ACC
will not react to:

• Stationary or slow moving vehicles below
10 km/h (6 mph).

• Pedestrians or objects in the roadway.

• Oncoming vehicles in the same lane.

The ACC system uses a radar sensor, which
projects a beam directly forward of the vehicle
to detect objects ahead.

The radar sensor is mounted behind the
bumper cover to the left of the cooling
aperture, to provide a clear view forward for the
radar beam.

• Only use ACC when conditions are
favourable (i.e. main roads with free
flowing traffic).

• Do not use in poor visibility, specifically
fog, heavy rain, spray or snow.

• Do not use on icy or slippery roads.

• It is the drivers responsibility to stay alert,

drive safely and be in control of the vehicle
at all times.

• Keep the front of the vehicle free from dirt,
metal badges or objects, including vehicle
front protectors, which may prevent the
sensor from operating.

• Do not use ACC when entering or leaving a
motorway.

USING ACC

1. Gap decrease button.

2. RES (Resume): Resumes the ACC set

speed after it has been disengaged.

3. CAN (Cancel) button.

4. Gap increase button.

The system is operated by controls mounted
on the steering wheel. The driver can also
intervene at any time by use of the brake or
accelerator pedals.

Setting the vehicle speed, activating, and
deactivating ACC is done in the same way as
using cruise control.

ENTERING FOLLOW MODE

When in follow mode, the vehicle will
not decelerate automatically to a stop,
nor will the vehicle always decelerate
quickly enough to avoid a collision.

Once a set speed has been selected, the driver
can release the accelerator and the set road
speed will be maintained.

88

Adaptive cruise control

When a vehicle ahead enters the same lane or
a slower vehicle is ahead in the same lane, the
vehicle speed will be adjusted automatically
until the gap to the vehicle ahead corresponds
to the default gap setting (gap level 3). The
vehicle is now in follow mode.

The amber warning lamp in the
instrument panel will be
illuminated.

The message centre will display the gap set.

The vehicle will then maintain the constant time
gap to the vehicle ahead until:

• The vehicle ahead accelerates to a speed
above the set speed.

• The vehicle ahead moves out of lane or out
of view.

• A new gap distance is set.

If necessary, the vehicle brakes will be
automatically applied to slow the vehicle to
maintain the gap to the vehicle in front.

The maximum braking which is applied by the
ACC system is limited and can be overridden by
the driver applying the brakes, if required.

Note: Driver braking will cancel ACC.

If the ACC system predicts that its maximum
braking level will not be sufficient, then an
audible warning will sound while the ACC
continues to brake. DRIVER INTERVENE will be
displayed on the message centre. The driver
should take immediate action.

When in follow mode, the vehicle will
automatically return to the set speed when the
road ahead is clear, for instance when:

• The vehicle in front accelerates or changes
lane.

• The driver changes lane to either side or
enters an exit lane.

The driver should intervene if appropriate.

CHANGING THE FOLLOW MODE SET GAP

Four gap settings are available and the selected
gap setting will be displayed on the message
centre when either gap adjustment button is
pressed.

Each gap level is indicated by an additional
chevron in front of the vehicle icon in the
message centre (one chevron (gap level 1)
being the shortest, four chevrons (gap level 4)
being the longest). After the ignition is
switched on, the default gap (gap level 3) will
be automatically selected ready for ACC
operation.

Note: When the ignition is switched off, the
gap setting will revert to the default setting
(gap level 3) when switched on again.

Note: It is the driver’s responsibility to select a
gap appropriate to the driving conditions.

89

Adaptive cruise control

OVERRIDING THE SPEED AND FOLLOW MODE

Whenever the driver is overriding the
ACC by depressing the accelerator
pedal, the ACC will not automatically
apply the brakes to maintain
separation from any vehicle ahead.

The set speed and gap can be overridden by
pressing the accelerator pedal when cruising at
constant speed or in follow mode. If the vehicle
is in follow mode, the warning lamp will go out
when the ACC is overridden by the driver using
the accelerator and CRUISE OVERRIDE will be
displayed on the message centre. When the
accelerator is released the ACC function will
operate again and vehicle speed will decrease
to the set speed, or a lower speed if follow
mode is active.

AUTOMATIC LOW SPEED SWITCH-OFF

If the speed of the vehicle decreases below 30
km/h (18 mph), the ACC system will be
automatically switched off and the warning
lamp will go out.

If the brakes were being applied by the ACC
system, they will be slowly released.

This will be accompanied by an audible
warning, and DRIVER INTERVENE will be
displayed on the message centre. The driver
must take control.

ACC AUTO OFF

ACC will disengage, but not clear the memory
when:

• The CAN button is pressed

• The brake pedal is pressed

• Neutral (N), Park (P) or Reverse (R) gear is

selected

• Dynamic Stability Control activates.

ACC will disengage, and clear the memory
when:

• The ignition system is switched off

• Maximum vehicle speed is reached

• A fault occurs in the ACC system.

RESUMING THE SPEED AND FOLLOW MODE

RES should only be used if the driver is

aware of the set speed and intends to
return to it.

By pressing the RES button after ACC has been
cancelled, for example, after braking, the ACC
will become active again provided that the set
speed memory has not been erased. The
original set speed will be resumed (unless a
vehicle ahead causes the follow mode to
become active) and the set speed will be
displayed in the message centre for four
seconds.

HINTS ON DRIVING WITH ACC

The system acts by regulating the speed of the
vehicle using engine control and the brakes.
Gear changes may occur in response to
deceleration or acceleration whilst in ACC.

ACC is not a collision avoidance system.
However, during some situations the system
may provide the driver with an indication that
intervention is required.

An audible alarm will sound, accompanied by
the message DRIVER INTERVENE if the ACC
detects:

• A failure has occurred whilst the system is
active

• That using maximum ACC braking only is
not sufficient.

Note: ACC operates when the gear selector is
in position S or D.

90

Adaptive cruise control

Note: When engaged, the accelerator pedal
rests in the raised position. Fully release the
pedal to allow normal ACC operation.

Note: When braking is applied by the ACC, the
vehicle brake lamps will be switched on
although the brake pedal will not move.

DETECTION BEAM ISSUES

Detection issues can occur:

1. When driving on a different line to the

vehicle in front.

2. When a vehicle edges into your lane. The

vehicle will only be detected once it has
moved fully into your lane.

3. There may be issues with the detection of

vehicles in front when going into and
coming out of a bend.

In these cases ACC may brake late or
unexpectedly. The driver should stay alert and
intervene if necessary.

ACC MALFUNCTION

If a malfunction occurs during operation of the
system in cruise or follow modes, the ACC
system will switch off and cannot be used until
the fault is cleared. The message DRIVER
INTERVENE appears briefly and is then
replaced by the message CRUISE NOT
AVAILABLE. If malfunction of the ACC or any
related system occurs at any other time, the
message CRUISE NOT AVAILABLE will be
displayed. It will not be possible to activate the
ACC system in any mode.

Accumulations of dirt, snow or ice on the
sensor or cover may inhibit ACC operation.
Fitting of a vehicle front protector or metallised
badges may also affect ACC operation.

The ACC system relies on its radar to detect
objects and constantly scans ahead. If the
radar detects no objects ahead in ACC or follow
mode, then the ACC will be deactivated, the
audible alarm sounds and the message
DRIVER INTERVENE displays briefly. The
message ACC SENSOR BLOCKED will then be
displayed.

The same messages may also be displayed
while driving on open roads with few objects
for the radar to detect.

Clearing the obstruction allows the system to
return to normal operation. If the obstruction is
present when ACC is inactive (e.g. on initial
starting or with the ACC system switched off),
the message ACC SENSOR BLOCKED will be
displayed.

Tyres other than those recommended for your
vehicle, may have different sizes. This can
affect the correct operation of the ACC.

91

Adaptive cruise control

FORWARD ALERT FUNCTION

Limited detection and warning of objects
ahead, is provided during ACC operation by the
ACC FORWARD ALERT warning. The enhanced
forward alert feature additionally provides
warnings when ACC is not engaged; if an object
is detected close ahead, then the warning tone
and message will be issued. The brakes will not
be applied.

The forward alert system does not initiate any
action. The driver must take appropriate action
when the FORWARD ALERT message is
displayed. However, the system monitors
driver actions (e.g. braking, steering or
indicating) and may not initiate the warning
display if the appropriate action has been taken
early enough.

The Forward alert function may be switched on
or off from the Vehicle Set-up area in the
instrument panel menu. See 53, INTERACTIVE
CONTROLS.

When the warning lamp in the
instrument panel is on, Forward
alert is active.

The sensitivity of the warning may be changed:

• Press the gap decrease button when ACC is
disengaged to display and then decrease
the sensitivity of the alert.

• Press the gap increase button to display
and then increase the sensitivity of the
alert.

Note: The forward alert set gap is retained
when the ignition is switched off.

FORWARD ALERT is displayed in the message
centre.

ADVANCED EMERGENCY BRAKE ASSIST

The system may not react to slow
moving vehicles and will not react to
stationary vehicles or vehicles travelling
in the opposite direction.

Warnings may not appear if the
distance to the vehicle ahead is very
small or if steering wheel or pedal
movements are large (e.g. to avoid a
collision).

The system utilises the same radar
sensor as ACC and Forward alert - the
same limitations of performance apply.

Advanced emergency brake assist is available
at speeds above approximately 7 km/h (5 mph)
and improves braking response during
emergency braking, when a moving vehicle is
detected close ahead.

If the risk of collision increases after the
FORWARD ALERT warning is displayed,
advanced emergency brake assist is activated.
The brakes are automatically applied gently in
preparation for rapid braking (this may be
noticeable). If the brake pedal is then pressed
quickly, full braking is implemented, even if
only light pressure is applied to the pedal. See
78, EMERGENCY BRAKE ASSIST (EBA).

Note: Braking performance will only be
improved if the driver applies the brakes.

Advanced emergency brake assist will function
even if Forward Alert and ACC are switched off.
If there is a fault with the system, FORWARD
ALERT UNAVAILABLE is displayed in the
message centre. The vehicle can still be driven
and the braking system will still operate, but
without advanced emergency brake assistance.
Seek qualified assistance to have the fault
rectified.

92

Automatic speed limiter

USING ASL

In certain conditions, such as a steep
downhill gradient, the vehicle speed
may exceed the set speed limit. This
is because engine braking is unable to
maintain or reduce the vehicle speed.

The ASL button allows the driver to select
between cruise control and the automatic
speed limiter. The ASL can be set to any speed
between 30 km/h (18 mph) and 240 km/h (150
mph).

Note: Although ASL only operates at speeds
between 30 km/h (18 mph) and 240 km/h (150
mph), the maximum speed can be set when the
vehicle is stationary.

SETTING A SPEED LIMIT

• Press the ASL button.

• Use the cruise control increase/decrease

buttons to set the required speed. The
message centre display in the instrument
panel will show the selected speed.

• The set speed can be adjusted at any time,
using the cruise control increase/decrease
buttons.

When ASL is selected and a set speed inserted,
the engine will respond normally up to the set
speed. Further accelerator pedal pressure will
not increase the vehicle speed beyond your set
speed, unless kickdown is initiated, in which
case ASL will be suspended.

Automatic speed limiter

RESUMING ASL

If ASL has been suspended, it can be reinstated
with a single press of the RES button, however,
ASL will only reinstate if the vehicle speed is
less than the current speed set in memory and
