Engine block heaters
Engines are more difficult to start when the
ambient temperature is very low. In
geographical areas where temperatures below
-10°C (14°F) are experienced frequently, it is
advisable to fit an engine block heater. The
block heater will have an insulated connector at
the front of the vehicle, which is connected to a
mains supply using a suitable extension cable.
The heater can remain in use overnight if
required. Typically, an e ngine block heater will
use between 400W and 1000W per hour.
For further information consult your Jaguar
Dealer/Authorised Repairer.

Driving hints

ECONOMICAL DRIVING
There are two main factors which influence fuel
economy, the way the vehicle is driven and
maintenance.
Driving tips for economy
•Avoid unnecessary jour neys, especially
short stop-start trips.
• Accelerate smoothly and gently from a
stand still.
• Allow time to brake gently and smoothly.
• Be aware of traffic and road conditions
ahead, and take action in time to avoid
hard braking or acceleration.
• When stationary apply the park brake, and
select neutral.
• Turn off the air conditioning when not
needed.
Maintenance and fuel economy
Regular servicing by a Dealer/Authorised
Repairer, along with regular checks by the
driver are essential fo r vehicle longevity and
fuel economy.
The condition of the engine (oils, filters, spark
plugs, settings etc.) tyre pressures, and wheel
alignment, will all have a bearing on fuel
economy. For this reason it is essential that the
vehicle is checked regularly by the driver and
serviced by an approved Dealer/Authorised
Repairer at the correct intervals.
Note: If you are in any doubt about the
maintenance requirement s, intervals, or
checks required, contact your Dealer/
Authorised Repairer for advice.

177
Fuel and refuelling

Sulphur content
In some countries diesel may contain higher
levers of Sulphur, wh ich could cause damage
to the vehicle, if in doubt contact a local
Dealer/Authorised Repairer for advice.
RUNNING OUT OF FUEL
Note: If the vehicle does run out of fuel, a
minimum of 4 litres (0.9 gallons) will be
required to restart the engine. The vehicle will
need to be driven 1.6-5 km (1-3 miles) in order
to reset the engine management and
monitoring systems.
Note: If the vehicle does run out of fuel,
seeking qualified assistance is advisable.
Diesel engines
Vehicles with diesel e ngines are equipped with
a system to prevent the fuel tank from
emptying completely. When the fuel reaches a
minimum level, the system will activate a
reduced power mode (i.e . the engine will not
run properly). This will be followed by the
engine stopping in a pproximately 1.6 km
(1 mile). This feature prevents the fuel system from
running dry, which could cause damage to the
vehicle. If the gauge indicates low fuel or the
warning indicator illumi
nates, the fuel tank
should be refuelled as soon as possible at the
next filling stat ion, with at least 4 litres (0.9
gallons) of fuel.
If the system protection function has activated,
the vehicle must firstly be refuelled, then
restarted using the following procedure:
1. With the brake pedal pressed, press and
hold the engine START/STOP button and
crank the engine for five seconds.
2. Release the START/STOP button.
3. With the brake pedal pressed, press and
release the START/STOP button to crank
the engine. The engine should start within
approximately five seconds.
Note: If the engine does not start, pause for ten
seconds with the ignition in convenience
mode, before re peating the procedure from the
beginning.
FUEL CUT-OFF
The fuel system cut-off forms part of the
Supplementary Restraint System (SRS) fitted
to your vehicle. Following an impact, and
depending on the severity , the fuel pump may
be switched off.
CAUTION
Your vehicle is fitted with a Diesel
Particulate Filter (DPF), the maximum
Sulphur content must not exceed 0.005%.
Using an incorrect fuel will cause serious
damage to the DPF. See DIESEL
PARTICULATE FILTER (DPF) (page 135).
CAUTION
Avoid running out of fuel. Doing so can
cause damage to th e vehicle's engine,
fuel and emission control systems.
CAUTION
Do not crank the engine for longer than
30 seconds, or damage to the fuel pump
may occur.

Underbonnet cleaning
CAUTIONS
Commercially operated automatic car
washes, jet washes and power-operated
mops, are not recommen ded. The detergents
used can contain certain chemicals which
may, over time, be detrimental to some
exterior parts of the vehicle. Prolonged usage
of automatic car wash es and power-operated
mops will also cause fine scratches in the paint
surface.
Ensure that Auto wipe is not selected
when entering a car wash, or damage to
the wiper blades and arms can occur if they
operate during the wash cycle.
Ensure that when using an automatic
drive through car wash, N (Neutral) is
selected and that the ignition is left in
convenience mode for the duration of the
wash.
CAUTIONS
Do not use a high pr essure washer or

Engine oil consumption
A certain amount of oil consumption is normal.
The rate of consumption will depend on the
following:
• The quality and visc osity of the oil.
• Climatic conditions.
• The speed at which the engine is being
operated.
• Road conditions.
Drivers should expe ct above normal
consumption when the engine is new.
JAG1383
CAUTIONS
If the warning ENGINE OIL CRITICALLY
LOW is displayed in the message centre,
stop the engine as soon as it is safe to do so
and seek qualified assistance. Do not start the
engine until the cause ha s been identified and
rectified.
Your vehicle’s warranty may be
invalidated if damage is caused by the
use of improper engine oil. Low quality or
obsolete oils do not pr ovide the protection
required by modern, high performance
engines. Failure to use an oil that meets the
required specification could cause excessive
engine wear, a build up of sludge and deposits
and increased pollution. It could also lead to
engine failure.
Do not use oil additives of any type as
engine damage could occur. Use only
specified lubricants.
