Transmission

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
The transmission system is designed to
operate in two distinct modes, conventional
automatic and Jaguar Sequential Shift.
The automatic modes are accessed by the gear
selector:
•D - Drive - automatic shifting.
• S - Sport - sport automatic shifting.
The Jaguar Sequential Shift mode enables
sequential manual gear selection in D
(temporary) and S (permanent) modes, via the
steering wheel m ounted paddles.
Note: In addition to the st andard shift patterns
available in D and S, the transmission will
adapt to differing conditions by modifying shift
points, based upon vehicl e sensor information
for road gradient, cornering, braking pressure
and driving style.
JaguarDrive selector
The JaguarDrive selector elevates out of the
centre console when the engine is started, in
readiness for gear selection. Press the brake
pedal, then rotate the control to select the
chosen gear ( P, R , N or D) or, from D, press
down on the control and rotate to select S
(Sport).
CAUTIONS
Never select the Park ( P) position whilst
the vehicle is in motion. Doing so may
cause serious damage to the transmission.
Never select the Reverse ( R) position
whilst the vehicle is in forward motion.
Doing so may cause serious damage to the
transmission.
Never select a forward gear whilst the
vehicle is in rearward motion. Doing so
may cause serious damage to the
transmission.
Do not rev the engine or allow it to run
above normal idle speed while selecting
D or R, or while the vehicle is stationary with
any gear selected.
Do not allow the vehicle to remain
stationary for any length of time, with a
gear selected and the engine running. Always
select P or N if the engine is to idle for a
prolonged period.

Transmission

Driver type recognition
In Sport mode, the transmission monitors
driving style and in combination with sensors
in the vehicle, varies the shift schedule,
fast-off, corner recognition and shift adapt
under braking functions, according to the
driving style.
Manual mode - Jaguar Sequential Shift
Shifts in the Jaguar Sequential Shift manual
mode are made using the steering wheel
mounted shift paddles and are optimised to
provide a rapid response to gear shift requests. Up-shift requests (
+) are optimised for
performance via the s hort shift function,
resulting in firmer feeling shifts than in
automatic mode. Down-shift requests ( -)
utilise a throttle blip duri ng the shift, resulting
in improved shift feel.
The Jaguar Sequential Shift manual mode can
be accessed either temporarily, or
permanently.
Temporary manual gear selection: When the
gear selector is in the D position, manual mode
may be directly accessed by the single action of
operating the steering wheel mounted shift
paddles.
This convenience feature allows immediate but
temporary use of the sh ift paddles when the
gear selector is in D.
If continued use of manua l mode is required,
the gear selector may be subsequently moved
to the S position to enter permanent manual
mode in the currently selected gear.
If the gear selector remains in the D position,
temporary manual mode will be held whilst the
driver is accelerating, decelerating, cornering
or continuing to request shifts via the paddles.
The transmission will revert to automatic
operation after a short pe riod of driving at
steady speed; alternatively the shift-up ( +)
paddle may be held for a short period
(approximately one second) to return directly
to automatic operation in D .
Permanent manual gear selection: Select the
S position, permanent manual mode is then
accessed by the operation of the steering wheel
mounted shift paddles.
The message centre will highlight the currently
selected gear.
E94122

Transmission
142

Note: When the transmission is set to
permanent manual mode (i.e. using the
paddles to change gear while in Sport mode)
and Dynamic mode is selected, transmission
up-shifts are fully controlled by the driver. This
means that the transmissi on will not change up
a gear automatically, even when the vehicle's
rev limit is reached. When the rev limit is
reached, the gear position indicator in the
message centre will glow amber, to indicate
that the next gear should be selected.
To exit from the Jaguar Sequential Shift
permanent manual mode, either pull and hold
the shift-up paddle for approximately one
second (to return directly to automatic
operation in S ), or rotate the gear selector to
the D position. The transmission will revert to
the D automatic shift mode.
Manual operation
To shift-up, briefly pull the shift-up ( +) paddle
on the right-hand side of the steering wheel
towards you.
To shift-down, briefly pull the shift-down
paddle ( -) on the left-hand side of the steering
wheel towards you.
The message centre display will change to
highlight the requested gear.
Note: The transmission will inhibit up-shifts
and down-shifts if the requested shift would
result in an engine speed outside the normal
operating range of the engine. If this occurs,
the message centre will briefly display the
requested gear selection, but will return to
displaying the current gear.
The Jaguar Sequential Shift mode also has the
following features: Kick-down:
Operation of kick-down in Jaguar
Sequential Shift mode will override the
currently selected gear. The lowest available
gear will be selected for maximum acceleration
and will be highlighted in the message centre
display. Subsequent manu al shifts may then be
selected as usual.
Positive torque: Provides throttle blips on
down-shifts, improving shift feel and response.
Shift assist: The transmission will
automatically up-shift at the engine speed
redline in Jaguar Sequential Shift mode, as if
commanded manually.
The transmission will automatically
down-shift, when the engine speed drops too
low for the currently selected gear.
When the vehicle approaches, or comes to
rest, second gear is au tomatically selected.
Subsequent pull-aways will occur in second
gear, unless the accelerator pedal demand is
high or a down-shift is manually selected, in
which case, first gear will be selected.
In all cases the message centre will display the
current gear.
Note: During sustained braking, if a down-shift
is selected at a speed which would result in the
engine speed exceeding its normal operating
range, the gear change wi ll be indicated in the
message centre, but the down-shift will be
delayed until the vehi cle speed has reduced
sufficiently for the gear selection to be made,
without causing the engine speed to exceed its
normal operating range.
