RUN FLAT TYRES
Run-flat tyres can be identified by the lettering
RSC on the sidewall. The tyre construction
utilises a specially reinforced sidewall, which
allows the vehicle to be driven at restricted
speeds, even when the tyre is depressurised.
Run-flat tyres can only be fitted to special rims,
constructed for ru n-flat tyre use.
A tyre pressure monitoring system is
mandatory when the vehicle is fitted with
run-flat tyres. See TYRE PRESSURE
MONITORING SYSTEM (page 234).
If the tyre has deflated, the vehicle should be
driven with caution, as handling characteristics
will be different compared to a fully inflated
tyre.
If the vehicle is fully la den with passengers and
luggage, the maximum di stance that can be
completed on a fully deflated tyre, is
approximately 80 kilo metres (50 miles).
Stop immediately if the tyre construction
begins to break down or if the tyre dislodges
from the wheel rim. Typi cally, this will be
accompanied by excessive vibration.
A tyre driven in a defl ated condition must be
replaced as s oon as possible. Vehicles fitted with run-flat tyres are not fitted
with a spare wheel or jacking equipment.
Therefore, run-flat tyre
s should be replaced
with the same type of tyre.

The front towing eye is included in the tool kit,
located in the under-floor area of the luggage
compartment. See TOOL KIT (page 224).
1. Press the lower edge of the towing eye
cover in the front bumper to open, then

WARNINGS
The towing eyes at the front and rear
of the vehicle are designed for
on-road recovery only. If they are
used for any purpose other than those
indicated, it may result in vehicle damage and
serious injury.
Never use the towing eyes to tow a
trailer, caravan etc. Doing so may
result in vehicle damage and serious
injury.
CAUTION
Only use the lashing points indicated, or
over-tyre tie-downs, to secure the
vehicle to the transporter or trailer. Use of any
other position (e.g. lower control arms) may
result in damage to the vehicle.

TOWING THE VEHICLE ON FOUR
WHEELS
Note: The recommended recovery method is
to raise all four wheels.
Towing procedure
1. The vehicle should be parked on firm level
ground, with the parking brake on, and the
gear selector in P (Park).
2. Secure the towing attachment from the
recovery vehicle to the front towing eye.
See TOWING POINTS (page 253).
3. Dock the Jaguar Smart Key and switch on
the ignition. See GENERAL INFORMATION
(page 132). 4.
Apply the foot brake and release the
parking brake.
5. With the foot brake st ill applied, activate
the Emergency Park Release (EPR).
See TRANSPORTING THE VEHICLE
(page 254).
6. The vehicle can now be towed a maximum
of 0.8 km (0.5 miles) at a maximum speed
of 48 kmh (30 mph).
7. Upon arrival at the destination, ensure
wherever possible that the vehicle is
parked on firm level ground.
8. Lower the Emergency Park Release (EPR)
lever, to cancel EP R and to re-engage P
(Park).
9. Apply the parking brake.
10. Switch off the ignition and remove the
Jaguar Smart Key.
11. Remove the towing attachment from the
towing eye.
WARNINGS
Ensure that the remote control
remains docked whilst the vehicle is
being towed. Removing the remote
control will engage the steering lock, which
will prevent the vehicle from steering
correctly.
If the engine cannot be run whilst the
vehicle is being towed, there will be
no power assistance for the steering
or brakes. This will result in greater effort
being required to steer or slow the vehicle, and
greatly increased stopping distances.
CAUTIONS
The vehicle should only be towed in a
forward direction with all four wheels on
the ground.
The vehicle should only be towed for a
maximum of 0.8 km (0.5 miles), at a
maximum speed of 48 km/h (30 mph). Towing
for a greater distance or at a higher speed, may
result in serious damage to the transmission.
CAUTION
Leaving the ignition switched on for
extended periods will cause the battery
to drain.
WARNING
Use extreme caution when detaching
towing equipment. Vehicle movement
is possible which can result in serious
injuries.
