Interior Trim and Ornamentation - Interior Trim
Description and Operation
Carpets
The passenger compartment carpet is a one piece moulded constr uction with integral sound deadening material, heel mats
and driver's footrest. The carpet is attach ed to the vehicle floor by plastic clips fitted below the door treadplates. Removal of the carpet necessitates re moval of the front seats, lifting of the centre console rear extens ion and removal of the heelboard
carpet.
Fascia
The full width, slush moulded, soft feel PVC fascia is mounted on an injection moulded armature and is faced with wood
veneer. In addition to the air conditioning and central, outer and demisting vents, it accepts instrument packs dedicated to
market requirements and a centrally mounted analogue clock.
Doors
The one-piece door casings are trimmed in UEV to match the seating, with wood veneer at the waistline and a carpet insert
at the front lower corner. Each casing is secured to the door inner panel by fir tree press fast eners along the lower section,
two armrest fixings at the centre and vene er panel dowels and fixings at the top. The armrests which are common to front
and rear doors, are trimmed in matching leather or UEV according to specification. The door switchpacks, dedicated to
driver and front or rear passenger, are in corporated in the armrests. A speaker is in stalled in the lower section of each door
and a tweeter is incorporated behind each interior door handle escutcheon. Where premium ICE is fitted, the front tweeters
are installed in the upper A posts.
A, B, C and D Posts
On each side,a grained UEV finisher trimmed to match the headlining is secured to the 'A' post and cantrail by fir tree
fasteners locating in BIW apertures. The upper 'D' post finisher is trimmed and secured in the same manner. The single
piece'B/C' post finishers, also finished in grained matching UEV, each have a front se at belt exit aperture and are secured to
the BIW by four spring clips and two fir tree fasteners.
Headlining
The one-piece headlining consists of a 6mm thick polyurethane foam membrane covered with suede effect knitted polyester. The headlining is secured to the BIW roof by body tangs, the roof console, sun visors, combined grab handles and coat
hooks, the cantrail finishers and where fitt ed, the sliding roof finisher and clips.
Trunk
Carpet covered trims line the trunk and are secured by fir tr ee fasteners to the sides and front inner panel. The carpet
covered, two-section, removable trunk fl oor provides access to the spare wheel and wheel changing equipment, the battery
and electrical carrier. The floor board rests on the spare wheel, with the front and rear edges locating in blocks on the fuel
tank backboard and the rear of the body. The support blocks provide for two floor he ight settings to accommodate either a
space saver or full size spare wheel.A moulded finisher covering the rear of the trunk below the sill is secured to the rear
panel by tabs and fir tree fasteners. Finish er panels fitted to the rear lamp units provide trunk interior access to the lamps.
The trunk lid underside is fitted with a removabl e moulded liner and two trunk illumination lights.

Mirror adjustment can only be made when the ignition switch is in position I or II or the driver's door is open, and the
selector switch is moved from the central position.
When fitted, electrochromic door mirrors au tomatically darken under control of the interior rear view mirror. Mirror heating
elements operate on selection of backlight heating.
Automatic dipping of passenger door mirror for kerb view when reversing, is fitted as part of the memory pack. With the
ignition switch in position II, the mirror selector switch in the left or right position and reverse gear selected, automatic
dipping is initiated by moving the mirro r toggle switch rearwards and releasing.
On receipt of the dip signal, th e passenger door mirror is driven downwards eith er 7 degrees, bottom of travel, or 4,5 to 5,5
seconds, whichever occurs first. Subsequent rear ward movement of the toggle switch achieves further dipping of the mirror
in the same increments and sequence.
The mirror can be manually returned to the normal memorised position by moving the toggle switch forward with reverse
gear selected. The mirror will automatically return to memorised position on deselection of reverse gear, or moving ignition
switch from position II.
Door mirror fold-back where fitted, to facilitate parking in conf ined spaces, can be initiated when the ignition switch is in
position I or II, the mirror selector switch is in the centra l position and vehicle speed is below 19 km/h (12 mph). Mirror
fold-back is then initiated by moving the toggle switch rear wards and releasing it. The door mirrors are returned to the
normal driving position by ag ain moving toggle switch rearwards. There is no speed constraint on this operation.
In the event of a fold-back mirror becoming 'out of position' du e to accidental impact, it must only be re-positioned by
initiating the fold-back sequence.
Loss of power supplies will result in loss of mirror fold-back memory. In the event of such a memory loss with mirrors in the
normal position, fold-back will operate on second movement of the toggle swit ch. On loss of memory with mirrors in the
fold-back position, they will return to the no rmal position on next fold-back operation.

Seating - Seats Description and Operation
Front Seats

All front seats are equipped with electric height adjustment. In addition, both front seats are available with manual or power forward
and rearward adjustment, manual or powe r operated headrest adjustment, 12 way elec tric adjustment, memory controlled 12 way
adjustment and integral seat heating. A side air bag module is installed in the outboard squab wing of each front seat. Each se at has a
non-handed, one-piece frame incorporating cushion and squab frames , side air bag suppoort bracket and seat adjuster mechanisms.
Sear switchpacks are installed on the outboa rd side of driver and passenger seats, and control modules are installed in the bas e of each
seat. Both the driver and front passenger seat ar e secured to the vehicle floor at four points.
Rear Seats

The standard rear seat is of the fixed, bench type with full wi dth removable cushion. Two individual rear seats are fitted to certain long
wheelbase models. Both types of rear seat are available with thermostatically controlled heating of the cushion and squab. Indi vidual
rear seats are electrically adjustable for squab recline (via fore and aft moveme nt), head restraint height and lumbar support. Separate
motors provide adjustment of each seat cushion and head restraint and an electrica lly-driven air compressor provides variation of
lumbar support. Seat adjustment is controll ed via switches installed on a panel in a rear extension to the centre console.

Handles, Locks, Latches and Entry Systems - Handles, Locks, Latches and
Entry Systems
Description and Operation
Door Lock Mechanism

For most markets, the remote central locking system also, in corporates deadlocking facilities for optimum security. Door
locks are eight disc, bayonet fixing barrels with integral lock / unlock switches. Keys include 'in-key' transponders which are
programmed to the vehicle via the Jaguar Diagnostic Sy stem and operate the engine immobilisation system.
The central locking system employs single key access to the driv er's door, trunk lid and ignition switch/steering column lock.
An additional green headed valet or park ing services key permits access via the driver's door, and ignition/start-up, but
denies access to the trunk and glovebox.A valet switch located on the centre console switch panel above the radio,
precludes normal internal access to the trunk.When the vehicle is not locked, each door catch can be externally released by
the corresponding external door handle which operates via a si ngle rod. When unlocked, or 'single action' locked, the door
catches can also be released via the interior handles, each of which operates via a single cable. Operation of the front door
interior handles will also unlock the rear doors. Use of either key in the external door barrel, operates the lock via a short
rod to provide locking of the door latch. These locking functions can also be achieved by use of the remote transmitter.The
trunk lid can be independently unlatched via a switch located on the driver's side underscuttle. This will only operate at
vehicle speeds up to 8 km/h (5 mph).
All doors and the trunk can be manually lock ed simultaneously from inside by pressing the driver or front passenger door sill
button down. Each rear door can be independently locked by si milarly depressing the sill button and in some markets can be released by operating the internal door handle.
For most markets, a 'drive-away door locking' feature automati cally locks all doors and the trunk when the gear selector is
moved from the Park position.
Key Operation
To 'single action' lock or unlock the vehicle, the key is inserted in the door lock , turned towards the front or rear of the
vehicle respectively, and released. Holding the key in the lock position will close all windows. Releasing the key stops all
operations. 'single action' locking of the vehicle locks all doors, the trunk lid and the fuel filler flap, and sets the alarm
system.
In addition to all of the above functions, deadlocking prevents door opening from th e interior. To deadlock the vehicle, the
key is inserted in the door lock and turned to the unlock (rearw ard) position, then within three seconds, turned to the lock
(forward) position and released.
Remote Operation

A pyrotechnic front seat belt pre-tensioning device with independent el ectronic sensing and retractor unit is installed at the
base of each 'B' post. In the event of se vere frontal impact, this provides additional front occupant protection by removing
any excess slack from the seat be lt. Seat belt pre-tensioning activates when a frontal impact of sufficient force occurs within
30 degrees of vehicle center line. Under such an impact, el ectronic sensors in the retractor unit fire, igniting the pre-
tensioner gas generator. The ga s generator initiates a chemical reaction, producing gases under pressure. Gas pressure
drives the piston/cable up a tube, rotating the retractor sp indle and removing excess slack from the seat belt. When the
pre-tensioner unit has been activated, the seat belt will lock and cannot be retracted or pulled from the reel.If a seat belt
pre-tensioner activates, a small quantity (less than 1 liter) of gas is produced containing nitrogen, oxygen and water vapor.

GLAZING
In order that the design condition of the vehicle is preserved when direct glazing repairs are carried out, it is essential that
only approved materials an d processes are employed.
Glass and Body Preparation
Betaseal HV3 System methods an d materials, are used on all Jaguar vehicles . Ease of working and extended process time
can however be gained by ensuring that the vehicle body and replacement glass are at a minimum room temperature of 20°
C prior to adhesive a pplication and fitting.
In the event of damage to the body flange finish, rectify as appropriate with the full paint refinishing process as described in
the Paint Refinishing Manual.
Adhesive Application Temperature
The specified adhesive has a high viscosity and is not easily applied at 'room te mperature' using conventional methods.
When the adhesive is applied it chills ra pidly on contact with the body and reverts to the hard condition, providing retention
strength with in minutes.
Raising the temperature of the adhesive will reduce viscosity an d speed up the flow. It is recommended that the adhesive is
pre-warmed in a heated cabinet for a mini mum of twenty minutes and applied with an extrusion gun incorporating integral
heating elements.
Adhesive Application
CAUTION: The glass will not bond to the body if the time taken to apply the adhesive and position the glass, exceeds
the stated limit.
It is recommended that the be ad of adhesive conforms to the shape and dimensions shown in the Adhesive Application
