Towing

TOWING A TRAILER (V6 petrol and
diesel vehicles only)
Note: It is the driver's responsibility to ensure
that the towing vehicle, and the trailer are being
used correctly, and in accordance with
manufacturers recommendations and any
applicable legislation. Your Dealer/Authorised Repairer and main
motoring and caravanni
ng organisation can
advise you on towing, towing weight capacities
and about regulations that apply in other
countries.
The following are important points of safety,
stability and comfort, upon which further
advice should be sought:
• Maximum braked towing weight is
permissible, provided that long periods of
uphill driving on gradients over 8% are not
undertaken.
• In high altitude mount ainous regions, the
thinner atmosphere can reduce engine
performance. Abov e 1000 metres (3250
feet), the stipulated maximum permitted
gross train weight mu st be reduced by
10% for every 1000 metres (3250 feet) in
altitude.
E95507
WARNINGS
Never exceed the maximum weights
for either the vehicle, or the trailer.
Doing so can cause accelerated wear
and damage to the ve hicle. It can also
adversely affect vehicle stability and braking,
which in turn can lead to loss of control and
increased braking distance resulting in a
rollover or crash.
To preserve handling and stability,
only fit Jaguar approved towing
accessories.
Never use towing eyes or lashing
points to tow a trailer. They have not
been designed for this purpose and
doing so may cause them to fail resulting in
injury or death.
When towing, do not exceed 100
km/h (60 mph) or 80 km/h (50 mph)
if a temporary spare wheel is in use.

Safety in the garageFuel system
Poisonous fluids
Fluids used in motor vehicles are poisonous
and should not be consumed or brought into
contact with open wounds. These include;
battery acid, antifreeze, brake, clutch and
power steering fluid, petrol, diesel, engine oil
and windscreen washer additives.
For your own safety, always read and obey all
instructions printed on labels and containers.
Used engine oil
Prolonged contact with engine oil may cause
serious skin disorders, including dermatitis
and cancer of the skin. Always wash
thoroughly after contact.
It is illegal to pollute drains, water
courses or soil. Use authorised
waste disposal site s to dispose of
used oil and toxic chemicals.
WARNINGS
If the vehicle has been driven
recently, do not touch exhaust and
cooling system components until the
engine has cooled.
Never leave the engi ne running in an
unventilated area - exhaust gases are
poisonous and extremely dangerous.
Do not work beneath the vehicle with
the wheel changing jack as the only
means of support.
Keep your hands and clothing away
from drive belts, pulleys and fans.
Some fans may continue to operate
after the engi ne has stopped.
Remove metal wrist bands and
jewellery, before working in the
engine compartment.
Do not touch electrical leads or
components while the engine is
running, or with the starter switch
turned on.
Do not allow tools or metal parts of
the vehicle to make contact with the
battery leads or terminals.WARNINGS
Under no circumstances should any
part of the fuel system be dismantled
or replaced by anyone other than a
suitably qualified vehicle technician. Failure to
comply with this instruct ion, may result in fuel
spillage with a consequent serious risk of fire.
Ensure sparks and naked lights are
kept away from the engine
compartment.
Wear protective cl othing, including,
where practicable, gloves made from
an impervious material.

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).

Wheels and tyres

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.

Wheel changing procedure
1.Ensure that all passengers are in a safe
place, clear of the vehicle.
2. Apply the parking brake and select gear
position P (Park).
3. Ensure that the jack is placed on firm and
level ground.
Observe the instructions printed on the jack.
Use the jack only for lifting the vehicle during
wheel changing and only us e the jack which is
stored in the vehicle.
Before raising the vehi cle slacken but do not
remove the wheel nuts. There are four jacking points on the underside
of the floor. Two indented, triangular indicators
are provided on each sill cover. These indicate
the location for the jack.
The simplest way to correctly locate the jacking
point is to feel along
the sill panel to the
triangular indentation and then fit the jack to
the body, not to the sill panel.
Carefully raise the vehicle by turning the jack
handle. Stop jacking the vehicle when the tyre
just clears the ground. Minimum tyre lift gives
maximum vehicle stability.
Remove the wheel nuts and the wheel.
To remove the centre badge use the plastic
tipped end of the wheel nut wrench handle,
push the centre badge from its housing from
the inside of the wheel.
Push the centre badge into the replacement
wheel. If the temporary use spare wheel is to be
fitted, keep the centre badge safely and fit it to
the repaired full size wheel when it has been
refitted.
Fit the spare wheel and loosely secure with the
wheel nuts.
WARNINGS
Do not attempt to lift the vehicle
unless the jack head is fully engaged
in the jacking point.
Ensure that the park brake is applied.
CAUTION
Ensure before raising the vehicle that
the jack is correctly positioned to avoid
any damage to the vehicle sills or sill panels.
