Care of the Jaguar Smart Key
Do not expose to extr emes of heat, dust, 
humidity or allow contac t with fluids. Do not 
leave the transmitter exposed to direct 
sunlight.
Irregular operation
If difficulty is experienced with remote keyless 
entry, keyless entry, keyless starting or Jaguar 
Smart Key operation, it  may be caused by:
• Internal battery low voltage. Replace the 
battery. See CHANGING THE REMOTE 
CONTROL BATTERY  (page 24).
• High levels of localised external electrical 
interference, e.g. a radio transmitter.
• Until the battery can be replaced, or until 
the vehicle is outside the area of electrical 
interference, the Jaguar Smart Key must 
be inserted into the starter control unit.

Alarm
               
Alarm trigger information
If you have reason to believe that the alarm was 
triggered when you were away from the 
vehicle, it is possible to check on your return 
using the touch-screen.
From the touch-screen Home menu, select 
Vehicle  and then  Veh. settings . The Security 
menu is displayed automatically as the default.
Use the arrow icons to scroll to the second 
screen.
A text display (arrowed) will indicate if the 
alarm has been triggere d, and also indicate 
what the cause of the trigger was (e.g. Driver 
door, Passenger door, Inclination sensor, 
Trunk, etc.).
SECURITY SENSORS
Note:  If the vehicle is to be transported by 
road, rail or sea, the vehicle should not be 
double-locked or the tilt and intrusion sensors 
should be deactivated using the touch-screen. 
See PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE CONTROL  
(page 21). This prevents the alarm from 
sounding as the vehi cle pitches and rolls.
Tilt sensor
The tilt sensor detect s any change in the 
vehicle's inclination to  the ground. When the 
alarm is armed and the vehicle double-locked, 
any change in the vehicle's inclination will 
activate the tilt alarm. This feature protects 
against unauthorised towing away or 
jacking-up of the vehicle.
The tilt alarm is disarmed when the vehicle 
security system is disarmed using the Jaguar 
Smart Key.
Intrusion sensor
The intrusion sensor is  mounted in the roof 
console and detects any movement within the 
vehicle cabin via the  use of ultrasonic sound 
waves. When the alarm is armed and the 
vehicle double-locked, an y movement detected 
inside the cabin will activate the alarm.
Note:  It takes approximately 30 seconds for 
the sensor to create an  ultrasonic profile of the 
cabin and be fully armed.
The intrusion alarm is disarmed when the 
vehicle security system is disarmed using the 
Jaguar Smart Key.
Note:  Ensure all windows and sunroof are 
closed prior to arming the alarm and 
double-locking the vehicl e. Failure to do so 
may result in false al arms being sounded due 
to movements detected outside the vehicle.

Passive arming
This vehicle is fitted with a passive arming 
feature which can, if enabled, automatically 
arm the anti-theft system. Passive arming will 
automatically arm the perimeter alarm system 
30 seconds after the driver's door is closed, 
provided all doors, bonnet and luggage 
compartment are closed, the ignition is 
switched off and there are no valid Jaguar 
Smart Keys inside the vehicle.
It will also automatically arm the perimeter 
alarm system 30 seconds after the vehicle is 
unlocked, if none of the doors or the luggage 
compartment are opened.
Passive arming will not lock the vehicle, 
although access to the luggage compartment 
via the interior or exterior release buttons will 
be inhibited and the fuel filler flap will be 
locked. 
Passive arming can be di sabled/enabled using 
the touch-screen. See PROGRAMMING THE 
REMOTE CONTROL  (page 21).
Automatic relocking and re-arming of the 
alarm
Automatic relock and re-a rm is a feature which, 
if enabled, automatically relocks the vehicle 
and arms the anti-theft system.
If the vehicle is in a locked and armed state and 
the remote unlock button is pressed, but none 
of the doors or the luggage compartment are 
opened within 45 seconds, the vehicle will 
automatically relock all the doors and the 
luggage compartment a nd will re-arm the 
alarm system.
Note:  Automatic relocking and arming will only 
relock to a centrally lo cked state and will only 
arm to a perimeter alarm condition.
Automatic relocking an d re-arming can be 
disabled/enabled using the touch-screen. 
See PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE CONTROL  
(page 21).
Sensor faults
If the security systems detect a fault with one 
of the security sensors, two error tones will 
sound from the alarm sire n after the vehicle is 
unlocked and disarmed.  If this condition 
occurs, please visit your Dealer/Authorised 
Repairer for rectification.
