Vehicle battery

Your vehicle is fitted with a low maintenance
battery, which is located under the floor of the
luggage compartment.
In hot climates more frequent checks of the
battery electrolyte level and condition are
required. If necessary, the battery cells can be
topped up using di stilled water.
When the ignition is switched on, but without
the engine running, BATTERY NOT CHARGING
is displayed in the mess age centre. The battery
will only charge when the engine is running.
Note: Do not connect any 12 volt equipment
(e.g. a 12 volt inspection lamp), directly to the
battery terminals. Use the accessory socket
located in the cubby box, for connecting Jaguar
approved accessories.
Battery Monitoring System (BMS)
Your vehicle is equipped with a Battery
Monitoring System (BMS) which manages the
battery charging system and, if excessive
battery discharge is o ccurring when the engine
isn't running, shuts down non-essential
electrical systems to protect battery power.
In the event that too many electrical systems
are operational when the engine is not running,
and the battery charge is insufficient, the audio
and entertainment systems (if active) and
climate control system will be switched off.
This will be confirmed by a low battery warning
message displayed on the touch-screen. If this
occurs, switch on and run the engine for at
least five minutes, preferably with all auxiliary
electrical systems switched off (e.g. lights,
wipers, climate control, seat heaters etc.).
Note: The audio system can be operated
during this five minute period when the engine
is running.
If the engine is switched off before the five
minute period ends and the audio system is
switched on, the warning message will
re-appear on the touch-sc reen and the audio,
entertainment and climate control systems will
switch off again. For this reason, it is important
that the engine is left running for the full five
minute period.
Charging faults
If there is a fault in the battery charging system,
CHARGING FAULT is displayed with red
backlighting in the mess age centre. If this
occurs, switch off all non-essential electrical
systems and seek qualified assistance at the
earliest opportunity.
CAUTION
Do not allow battery electrolyte to come
into contact with fabrics or painted
surfaces. If battery electrolyte comes into
contact with any surfac e, the surface should
be washed down immedi ately with copious
amounts of clean water. Battery electrolyte is
both corrosive and toxic, and can damage a
wide range of materials if left.

Wheels and tyres

11.Wear rate indicator. A tyre rated at 400 for
example, will last twice as long as a tyre
rated at 200.
12. The traction rating grades a tyres
performance when stopping on a wet road
surface. The higher the grade the better the
braking performance. The grades from
highest to lowest are, AA, A, B, and C.
13. The maximum load which can be carried
by the tyre.
14. Heat resistance grading. The tyre's
resistance to heat is grade A, B, or C, with
A indicating the greatest resistance to heat.
This grading is provided for a correctly
inflated tyre, which is being used within its
speed and loading limits.
15. The maximum inflation pressure for the
tyre. This pressure should not be used for
normal driving.

WARNINGS
Defective tyres are dangerous. Do not
drive the vehicle if a tyre is damaged,
excessively worn, or incorrectly
inflated. Doing so may lead to premature tyre
failure.
Avoid contaminating the tyres with
vehicle fluids as they may cause
damage to the tyre.
Avoid spinning the wh eels. The forces
released can damage the structure of
the tyre and cause it to fail. Doing so
may lead to premature tyre failure.
If wheel spin is unavoidable due to a
loss of traction (i n deep snow, for
example), do not exceed the 50 km/h
(30 mph) point on the speedometer. Doing so
may lead to premature tyre failure.
Do not exceed the maximum pressure
stated on the sidewall of the tyre.
Over-inflation could cause the tyre to
fail suddenly.
WARNINGS
Never drive your vehicle if the tyre
pressures are incorrect.
Under-inflation causes excessive
flexing and uneven tyre we ar. This can lead to
sudden tyre failure. Ov er-inflation causes a
harsh ride, uneven tyre wear and poor
handling.
Pressure checks should only be
carried out when the tyres are cold,
and the vehicle has been stationary
for more than three hours. A hot tyre at or
below recommended cold inflation pressure is
dangerously under-inflated.

Wheels and tyres

Wear indicators
When the tread has worn down to
approximately 2 mm, wear indicators start to
appear at the surface of the tread pattern. This
produces a continuous band of rubber across
the tread as a visual indicator.
To maintain performance and grip the tyre
must be replaced as soon as the wear indicator
becomes visible. Sooner, if legislation requires
replacement at a greater tread depth.
Note: Tread depth should be checked
regularly, in some case more frequently than
the service intervals. For advice on checking
tyres contact your Dealer/Authorised repairer
or a tyre dealer.
Age degradation
Tyres degrade over time due to the effects of
ultraviolet light, extreme temperatures, high
loads, and environmen tal conditions. It is
recommended that tyres are replaced at least
every six years, but they may require
replacement more frequently.
Jaguar recommends that even if unused, the
spare tyre be replaced at the same time as the
four road tyres.
Punctured tyres
Tyre checks
Not all punctures result in the tyre deflating
immediately. Therefore, it is important to check
the tyres for damage and foreign objects,
regularly.
When driving, if a sudden vibration, or change
to the vehicle's hand ling is noticed, reduce
speed immediately. Do not brake hard, or make
any sudden manoeuvres or direction changes.
Drive slowly to an area off the main highway
and stop the vehicle.
Note: Driving the vehicle to a safe area may
cause damage to th e punctured tyre, but
occupant safety is far more important.
Inspect the tyres for signs of punctures,
damage or under inflati on. If any damage or
deformity is detected, the tyre should be
replaced. If a spare tyre is not available, then
the vehicle should be reco vered to a tyre repair
centre, or Dealer/Approved repairer.
WARNING
Wear indicators show the minimum
tread depth recommended by the
manufacturers. Tyres which have
worn to this point will have reduced grip and
poor water displacement characteristics.
CAUTION
If tread wear is uneve n across a tyre, or
the tyre wears excessively, the vehicle
should be checked by your Dealer/Authorised
Repairer as soon as possible.
E91698
WARNING
Do not drive the vehicle with a
punctured tyre. Even if the punctured
tyre has not deflated, it is unsafe to
use, as the tyre may deflate suddenly at any
time. See TYRE REPAIR KIT (page 229).

9.Unless the vehicle is in an enclosed area,
start the engine.
10. Set the compressor switch to the on ( I)
position.
11. Inflate the tyre to a minimum of 1.9 bar
(26 lbf/in²) and a maximum of 3.5 bar
(51 lbf/in²).
•When pumping the sealant through the
tyre valve, the pressure may rise up to 6
bar (87 lbf/in²). The pressure will drop
again after approximately 30 seconds.
12. During the inflation, switch the
compressor off briefly, to check the tyre
pressure using the gauge mounted on the
compressor.
• It should not take longer than seven
minutes to inflate the tyre. If, after seven
minutes, the tyre has not yet reached
minimum pressure, the tyre should not
be used.
13. Once the tyre has been inflated, switch off
the compressor. If desired, the engine may
be turned off after the compressor has
been turned off.
14. Remove the power connector from the
auxiliary power socket.
15. Remove the inflation hose from the tyre
valve, by unscrewing it as quickly as
possible (count er-clockwise).
16. Replace the inflation hose protective cap
and the tyre valve cap.
17. Do not remove the sealant bottle from the
receiver.
18. Ensure that the tyre repair kit (including
the bottle and receiver caps) are placed
securely in the vehicle. You will need to
use the kit to check the tyre pressure after
approximately 3 km (2 miles), so ensure
they are easily accessible. 19.
Immediately drive the vehicle for
approximately 3 km (2 miles), to allow the
sealant to coat the inner surface of the tyre
and form a seal at the puncture.
Checking the tyre pressure after a repair
1.Drive the vehicle for 3 km (2 miles) then
stop in a safe place. Carry out a visual
examination of the tyres condition.
2. Make sure that the sealant container
section is in its original position.
3. Screw the inflation hos e connector firmly
onto the tyre valve.
4. Read the tyre pressure from the gauge.
5. If the pressure of the sealant filled tyre is
above 1.3 bar (19 lb/in²) adjust the
pressure to the correct value. See TYRE
CARE (page 217).
6. Ensure that the compressor switch is in
the off (O ) position and insert the power
cable connector into the auxiliary power
socket.
If the vehicle is in a well ventilated area,
start the engine.
WARNINGS
When driving the vehicle, if you
experience vibr ations, abnormal
steering, or noises, reduce speed
immediately. Drive with extreme caution and
reduced speed, to the first safe place to stop
the vehicle. Visually examine the tyre and
check its pressure. If there are any signs of
damage or deformity to the tyre, or the tyre
pressure is below 1.3 bar (19 lb/in²), do not
continue driving.
Consult a tyre repair centre or your
Dealer/Authorised Repairer, for
advice concerning the replacement of
a tyre after using a tyre repair kit.
