System Operation
The pedestrian protection system is operational when the vehicle is traveling at speeds between approximately 20 km/h (12.4
mph) and 45 km/h (28 mph). A vehicle speed signal is received by the pedestrian protection system control module over the
high speed CAN bus.
The system is able to determine if contact is made with a pedestrian or another object, such as a traffic cone, using signals
from accelerometers mounted behind the front bumper. When the system determines contact is made with a pedestrian it fires
the actuators to lift the rear of the hood approximately 130 mm within 35 ms of the 'fire' signal.

When an impact condition is registered, the pedestrian protection system control module outputs an impact signal on the high
speed CAN bus. This signal is used by the RJB to initiate the hazard warning lamps. If this occurs, the hazard warning lamp switch is disabled for the remainder of the current ignition cycle.

If the pedestrian protection system control module detects a fault with the system, it outputs a message on the high speed
CAN bus to the instrument cluster message center. On receipt of this, the message center will display the message 'CHECK PEDESTRIAN SYSTEM'.

The pedestrian protection system control module also stores the VIN (vehicle identification number). If a new control module
is fitted to the vehicle the Jaguar approved diagnostic tool must be used to program the unit with the vehicles VIN.
When the vehicle is delivered from the factory the pedestrian protection system is in a 'safe' plant mode. Normal operating
mode should be activated using the Jaguar approved diagnostic tool during the Pre-Delivery Inspection (PDI) prior to delivery
to the customer. For additional information, refer to the PDI manual.

If any damage is caused to the front of the vehicle, be it cosmetic or structural, repairs must be carried out in line with the
processes contained in the workshop manual. Failure to carry out the correct repair process could compromise operation of the
pedestrian protection system. Refer to GTR for the latest information.

The vehicle must be left for 1 minute after disconnecting the battery before any work can be carried out on the pedestrian
protection system.

Failure Mode Detection

In service, if any fault is detected, or any part of the system is recognized as not being present, the message center displays
the warning 'Check Pedestrian System'.

The bonnet deployment actuators are non-serviceable components, and if they must be replaced due to a fault, or due to
having been deployed, or following any other accident, their barcode labels must be read and recorded in the service database
against the vehicle VIN for security purposes.

After deployment of the pedestrian protection system, the vehicle must be stopped as soon as it is safe to do so. The hazard
warning lamps will be activated and can only be switched off by pressing the engine START/STOP button to turn the engine off
and on again. A warning message 'CHECK PEDESTRIAN SYSTEM' will appear on the message center and the vehicle should be
transported to the nearest dealer/authorised repairer. The vehicle must not be driven when the bonnet has been deployed.


NOTE: If the warning message 'CHECK PEDESTRIAN SYSTEM' appears in the message center when the bonnet has not
been deployed, the vehicle should be taken to the nearest dealer/authorised repairer immediately. It can be driven.

If any significant damage occurs to the front bumper it should be inspected by a dealer/authorised repairer as soon as
possible.



CONTROL MODULE Component Description

The control module is mounted below the hood release lever behind the side trim in the left hand front footwell.

The deployment signal is received from the pedestrian protection system control module. The second-generation system
adopted for XF is all-new to Jaguar and, although similar, differs from that introduced on XK by having an accelerometer-based
sensing system rather than a contact-sensing system. The accelerometer-based system is supplied by Bosch. Mounted very
close to the skin of the bumper, it examines the characteristics of vibration waves caused by impact. Its response time is
quicker, because it does not rely on the front of the bumper being loaded. It uses the 'saved' time to make more complex
decisions, and so has fewer error states. The speed of vehicle and the length of the bonnet define the time available to get
the bonnet into its deployed and stabilized position. It is possible, therefore, to create a time-line counting back from the
predicted moment of head impact to the time when the deployment signals need to be sent. That in turn defines a time from
first contact to decision time.

- Disadvantage: Scarring and hardening of the surface.
Flattening using a copper electrode.
- Small, sharp dents that face outwards can be worked on with a copper electrode.
Flattening using a flame and body files.

NOTE: When applied correctly, this method can be used with all the attached parts still in place (roof headlining,
wiring harnesses etc.).

- Small, soft dents (only slight stretching): Working at the edges of the dent in an inward spiral pattern, the dent
is heated with an oxyacetylene torch (torch size 1 - 2 mm, excess gas flame) to approx. 250° C.
- Working rapidly with a body file extracts heat from the edge area until the dent is flattened. Preferably alternate
between two files. This increases the amount of heat that can be extracted.

Safety measures

The electronic control modules (ECM) fitted to vehicles make it advisable to follow suitable precautions prior to carrying
out welding repair operations. Harsh conditions of heat and vibration may be generated during these operations which
could cause damage to the modules. In particular, it is essential to follow the appropriate precautions when
disconnecting or removing the airbag RCM.
Do not allow electronic modules or lines to come into contact with the ground connection or the welding electrode.
Seat belt anchorages are a safety critical. When making repairs in these areas, it is essential to follow design
specifications. Note that extra strength low alloy steel may be used for seat belt anchorages. Where possible, the
original production assembly should be used, complete with its seat belt anchorages, or the cut line should be so
arranged that the original seat belt anchorage is not disturbed.
All welds within 250mm (9.842) of seat belt anchorages must be carefully checked for weld quality, including spacing of
spot welds.
Remove the battery before carrying out welding work in its vicinity.
Utmost care must be taken when welding near the fuel tank or other components that contain fuel. If the tank filler
neck or a fuel line must be detached to allow access for welding work, then the fuel tank must be drained and removed.
Never weld, on components of a filled air conditioning system. The same applies if there is a risk of the air conditioning
system heating up.
Connect the ground connection of the electrical welder directly to the part that is to be welded. Make sure that there
are no electrically insulating parts between the ground connection and the welding point.
Adjacent vehicle parts and adjacent vehicles must be shielded against flying sparks and heat.

Pedestrian protection system

The pedestrian protection system is designed to mitigate injuries in a pedestrian collision with the vehicle. It does this by
utilizing a pair of pyrotechnic actuators to lift the hood away from the engine, creating a cushioned impact between the
pedestrian and the vehicle. It is essential that any repair or replacement operations do not affect the safe working of the
system.
For additional information, refer to: Pedestrian Protection System (501-20C Pedestrian Protection System, Description and Operation).

Resistance spot welding

Where resistance spot welds have been used in production, they must be reproduced with new spot welds in replacement
where possible. All such reproduction spot welds should be spaced 25 to 30mm apart.
Setting up the equipment and co-ordinating the welding parameters.

Equipment:
- Follow the equipment manufacturer's instructions for the equipment settings.
- Select the correct electrode arms (as short as possible).
- Align the electrode arms and tips exactly.
- Electrode tips should be convex (rough shaping with a file, fine shaping with a sanding block).
Body:
- Make sure that the flanges to be joined lie perfectly flat to one another.
- Prepare a bare metal joint surface (inside and outside).
Notes on technique/method:
- Carry out a test weld on a sample piece of the material coated in welding paste.
- If any metal parts are located between the electrode arms then there will be a loss of induction and therefore
power (adjust current setting).
- The power needs to be adjusted for high-strength low alloy steel.
- Repeated welding on old welding points often leads to poor quality welds.
- Keep the electrode tips as near as possible to an angle of 90° to the contact surface.
- Keep the pressure on the electrodes for a short period after finishing the weld.
- The electrodes work best if their shape is convex. Clean the contact surface of the electrodes regularly.
Resistance spot welding panels where the total thickness is 3 mm or more

For all repairs to modern Jaguar vehicles, spot-welding equipment should be suitable for reliable welding of zinc-plated,
high-strength and high-tensile steels in three or more layers, up to 5 mm total thickness. If these requirements are not
fulfilled, plug welding must be used for safety reasons. The electrical specifications (current, resistance, heat) of the
spot-welding equipment have different validity, depending upon the type of equipment. Therefore, it is essential that the
manufacturer's instructions are observed with regard to the actual welding performance.

Part N-umber
Body Repairs - Corrosion Protection - Corrosion Protection
Description and Operation

General Published: 11-May-2011

The corrosion protection provided in production must be carefully maintained and/or reproduced during and after body repair
work. It is only then that the long-term warranty against penetrative corrosion damage can be assured.

Only Jaguar original bodywork components and Jaguar approved repair materials, (sealer, paint etc.), are to be used for
bodywork repairs.
Jaguar Original Parts



All Jaguar bodywork components have a cathodic base coating. Individual bodywork components are zinc plated on one or both
sides, (in different areas depending on vehicle model).

Together with elastic paint coating, this guarantees an optimum, highly resistant protection against corrosion caused by the
impact of small objects such as gravel.


NOTE: If possible, the individual protective layers, (zinc, cathodic base coat), on Jaguar bodywork components must not
be damaged or destroyed by sanding or other mechanical operations.

If hairline cracks at "bodywork connection areas" appear after reshaping work, (e.g. at door hinges), it must be ensured that
the corrosion protection provided in production is recreated. The complete paint covering must be re-created if necessary. The
same applies to reshaping work on heavily profiled bodywork components, (e.g. floor pan). Renew or touch-up the paint
coating, sealing beads and underbody protection as necessary.

After repair, any interior surfaces which are no longer visible or accessible must be primed before cavity wax is applied. To be
certain of an even coating on inner surfaces, careful application of spray, (twice, with drying time in-between), must be carried
out throughout the whole cavity.

If bodywork panels are strongly heated during repair work, this will invariably result in damage to or even destruction of the
applied corrosion protection material. The effectiveness of the cavity protection material is reduced if heating occurs.
Reworking of the affected areas is therefore vital.
Welded areas should be made good before corrosion protection is applied.

The corrosion protection measures to be taken when bodywork components are renewed are described on the following pages.

Corrosion Protection of New Components

All new components must be inspected for transport or storage damage such as scratches or dents. The following operations
may be necessary, depending on the extent of damage:
Undamaged New Component

Do not grind the cathodic primer.
Thoroughly clean with silicone remover and rub dry.
Slightly Damaged New Component
Sand out scratches.
Finely sand the surrounding surface.
Thoroughly clean with silicone remover and rub dry.
Apply corrosion protection primer to bare areas.
Damaged New Components (bumps and dents)
Beat out the dented area and sand down to bare metal.
