symbols
3. End of fascia (passenger side) -
Passenger airbag label
4. Sun visor - Airbag label
5. Base of left-hand C p illar - Tyre pressure
label, Airbag warn ing label, Vehicle
Identification Number label
6. Right-hand B pillar - Vehicle
Identification Number label (China)
7. Inner face of fuel filler flap - Fuel
specification label It is important that you are familiar with these
subjects to ensure that your vehicle and its
features are used safely. Using the index at the

battery. See CHANGING THE REMOTE
CONTROL BATTERY (page 24).
• High levels of localised external electrical
interference, e.g. a radio transmitter.
• Until the battery can be replaced, or until
the vehicle is outside the area of electrical
interference, the Jaguar Smart Key must
be inserted into the starter control unit.

engaged. Failure to do so can
increase the risk of death or serious injury in
the event of an accident or sudden manoeuvre
or heavy braking.
Before driving, ensure that the head
restraints are correctly fitted to the
rear seats.
