The oil consumption of an engine is influenced
by many factors. Unde r high loads an engine
will consume more oil than usual. Diesel
engines consume slightly more oil than petrol
engines.
Above normal oil consumption should be
expected when the engine is new.
Check the oil level weekly , when the engine is
cold and with the vehicle resting on level
ground.

CAUTIONS
If the message ENGINE OIL PRESSURE
LOW is displayed, st op the engine as
soon as it is safe to do so and seek qualified
assistance. Do not start the engine until the
cause has 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 additi ves of any type as
engine damage coul d occur. Use only
specified lubricants.

POWER STEERING FLUID CHECK
Checking the fluid level
Check and top-up the fluid with the vehicle on
level ground, with the e ngine switched off and
the system cold. Ensure that the steering wheel
is not turned after stopping the engine.
The level of fluid can be seen through the
translucent body of the reservoir. The fluid level shoul
d be between the MIN and
the MAX marks.
Topping up the fluid
1.Clean the filler cap before removing to
prevent dirt from entering the reservoir.
2. Remove filler cap.
3. Using Mobil ATF320, top-up the reservoir
until the fluid level is between the MIN and
MAX marks.
4. Replace filler cap.
WARNINGS
Power steering fluid is highly toxic.
Keep containers sealed and out of
reach of children. If accidental
consumption of fluid is suspected, seek
medical attenti on immediately.
If the fluid comes into contact with
the skin or eyes, rinse immediately
with plenty of water.
Power steering fluid is highly
inflammable. Do not allow power
steering fluid to come into contact
with naked flames or other sources of ignition
(e.g. a hot engine) - a fire may result.
CAUTIONS
The engine must not be started if the
fluid level has dropped below the MIN
mark. Severe damage to the steering pump
could result.
Seek qualified assistance immediately if
there is a noticeable drop in the fluid
level. Severe damage to the steering pump
could result.
If fluid loss is slow, the reservoir may be
topped-up to the upper level mark to
enable the vehicle to be driven to a repair
facility for examination. However, it is
recommended that you seek qualified
assistance before driving the vehicle.CAUTIONS
It is imperative that the power steering
system does not beco me contaminated
in any way. Always use new fluid and clean the
area around the filler neck both before
removing the filler ca p and after topping up.
Never return drained fluid to the system.
Power steering fluid will damage
painted surfaces. So ak up any spillage
with an absorbent cloth immediately and wash
the area with a mixture of car shampoo and
water.
Do not fill the reservoir above the MAX
mark.

Wheels and tyres

CHANGING A ROAD WHEEL
If a wheel change is required, pull off the road
completely. Park on ground which is as level
and solid as possible. Ensure that the vehicle is
clear of any objects that will obstruct the safe
removal of the wheel. Switch on hazard
warning lamps and, where legally required,
display the warning triangle.
Regular maintenance of tyres contributes not
only to safety, but to the designed function of
the vehicle. Road-holdi ng, steering and braking
are especially vulnerable to incorrectly
pressurised, badly fitted or worn tyres.
Tyres of the correct size and type, but of
different make can have widely varying
characteristics. It is therefore recommended
that Jaguar approved tyres are fitted to all
wheels.
Temporary use spare wheel
Observe the following wa rnings before using
the wheel:
WARNINGS
Always ensure replacement tyres
have the correct rating and
specifications (e.g. load index, size,
speed rating) for your vehicle.
When using tyres other than those
recommended by Jaguar, do not
exceed the speed capacity
recommended by the manufacturer.
Wheels are extremely heavy. Take
care when lifting and particularly
when removing and replacing a wheel
in its storage position in the luggage
compartment.
CAUTION
Ultra high performance tyres. This
vehicle is equipped with an Ultra High
Performance (UHP) tyre and wheel
combination designed to give maximum dry
road performance with consideration for
aquaplaning resistan ce. UHP tyres have
performance enhancing soft rubber tread
compound. If driven aggressively they may
suffer rapid tread wear and a shorter life than
can be expected from other tyre types. This
wheel and tyre comb ination is more
susceptible to damage from road hazards.
Do not use this combination for driving on
snow or ice. High perf ormance tyres must be
replaced with winter tyres when weather
conditions dictate.
WARNINGS
Note the temporary use spare wheel
warning label. Adhere to instructions
on the label. Failure to comply can be
dangerous.
When a temporary use spare wheel is
fitted, drive with caution and replace
with the specified wheel and tyre as
soon as possible.
Do not fit more than one temporary
use spare wheel and tyre assembly at
one time.
The temporary use spare wheel must
be inflated to 4.2 bar (60 lbf/in²,
420 kPa) and cannot be repaired.
Temporary use spare wheel,
maximum speed is 80 km/h
(50 mph).

Wheel changing safety
Before raising the vehicle, or changing a wheel
ensure that you read, and comply with the
following warnings.
WARNINGS
Always find a safe place to stop, off
the highway and away from traffic.
Ensure that the vehicle is on firm level
ground.
Disconnect traile r/caravan from
vehicle.
Switch on the hazard warning lamps.
Ensure that all passengers, and
animals, are out of the vehicle and in
a safe place away from the highway.
Place a warning triangle at a suitable
distance behind th e vehicle, facing
towards oncoming traffic.
Ensure that the front wheels are in the
straight ahead position, and engage
the steering lock.
Apply the parking br ake, and engage
Park (P).
Ensure that the jack is on firm level
ground.
Never place anything between the
jack and the ground, or the jack and
the vehicle.
When one rear wheel is lifted off the
ground the selection P (Park) position
will not prevent the vehicle from
moving and possibly slipping off the jack as
the park brake only operates on the rear
wheels.
Do not start or run the engine while
the vehicle is supported only by a
jack.
The jack is designed for use when
changing a wheel only. Never work
beneath the vehicle with the jack as
the only means of s upport - use vehicle
support stands.
Always chock the wheel diagonally
opposite the wheel to be changed,
using the wheel chock supplied in the
tool kit. Chock the front of a front wheel, or the
rear of a rear wheel.
If jacking the vehicle on a slight slope
is unavoidable, place chocks on the
downhill side of the two opposite
wheels. An additional chock will be
needed.
Take care when lifting the spare
wheel, and removing the punctured
wheel. The wheels are heavy, and can
cause injuries if not handled
correctly.
Remove the spare wheel prior to
jacking the vehicle. To avoid
destabilising the vehicle when raised.
Take care when loosening the wheel
nuts. The wheel brace may slip off if
not properly attached, and the wheel
nuts may give way suddenly. Either
unexpected movement ma y cause an injury.

Wheels and tyres

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.
