Towing
RECOMMENDED TOWING WEIGHTS
Nose/tongue weight must be the greater of
50 kg (110 lbs) or 7% of the actual trailer
weight, up to the maximum tow hitch load.
Nose/tongue weight can be measured using a
proprietary brand of nose weight indicator.
If it is necessary to increase the nose/tongue
weight up to the maximu m allowed, the vehicle
load should be reduced accordingly. This
ensures that the Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW),
and maximum rear axle load, are not exceeded.
Note: When towing the maximum permissible
gross vehicle weight can be increased by a
maximum of 100 kg (220 lb.) provided that the
road speed is limited to 100 km/h (60 mph).
Note: When calculating rear axle loading,
remember that the trailer nose/tongue weight,
the load in the vehicle's luggage area and the
weight of rear seat pa ssengers must all be
added together.
Towing weights - Australia only
The weight of a traile r must not exceed 1.5
times the towing vehicle’s weight. The
nose/tongue weight must be a minimum of 7%
of gross caravan/trai ler weight, up to a
maximum of 350 kg (722 lbs).
ESSENTIAL TOWING CHECKS
• The trailer should be parallel to the ground
when loaded and connected to the vehicle.
• When calculating the laden weight of the
trailer remember to include the weight of
the trailer, plus the weight of the load.
• If the load can be divided between the
vehicle and trailer, loading more weight
into the vehicle will generally improve
stability. Do not exceed the vehicle's
weight limits. See WEIGHTS (page 259).
• Ensure that all applic able regulations and
legislation are complied with when loading
and towing a trailer.
• Increase rear tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle to those for maximum vehicle
loading conditions.
• Ensure trailer tyre pressures are set to
trailer manufacturer' s recommendations.
• If the vehicle is loaded to maximum Gross
Vehicle Weight (GVW) the nose weight is
limited (see Towi ng weights table).
• Ensure that a suitable breakaway cable or
secondary coupling is used. Refer to the
trailer manufacturer' s instructions for
guidance.
• Ensure that the tow ball is secure.
• Check the operation of all trailer lights.
Maximum permissible
towing weights
Unbraked trailers 750 kg (1653 lb.) Trailers with
overrun brakes 1850 kg (4080 lb.)
Nose/Tongue weight 75 kg (165 lb.)
WARNING
Do not exceed the Gross Vehicle
Weight (GVW), m aximum rear axle
weight, maximum trailer weight, or
nose/tongue weight. Exceeding any of these
limits could cause inst ability and loss of
control. See WEIGHTS (page 259).
WARNING
Do not loop the breakaway cable over
the tow ball as it may slide off.

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.

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.

USING BOOSTER CABLES
Note: Before connecti ng booster cables,
ensure that the battery connections on the
disabled vehicle are correct and that all
electrical equipment has been switched off.
1. Connect one end of the positive booster
cable to the positive terminal on the donor
vehicle's battery.
2. Connect the other end of the positive
booster cable to the positive terminal on
the disabled vehicle's battery. 3.
Connect one end of th e negative booster
cable to the earth point of the donor vehicle
that is recommended for jump starting by
the manufacturer.
4. Connect the other end of the negative
booster cable to a suitable earth point on
the disabled vehicle. The earth point
should be at least 0.5 metres (20 inches)
away from the battery and as far as
possible from any fu el or brake pipes.
• Check that all cables are clear of any
moving components and that all four
connections are secure.
5. Start the engine of the donor vehicle, and
allow it to idle for a few minutes.
6. Start the engine of the disabled vehicle.
7. Allow both vehicles to idle for two minutes.
8. Switch off the donor vehicle.
Disconnecting the cables
Note: Do not switch on any electrical
equipment until after th e cables have been
disconnected.
The engine should be running on the
previously disabled ve hicle and the engine
switched off on the donor vehicle. Disconnect
the booster cables in the exact reverse order of
that used for connection.
WARNINGS
Always wear appropriate eye
protection when working with
batteries.
During normal use, batteries emit
explosive hydrogen gas - ensure
sparks and naked lights are kept away
from the luggage compartment.
Do not attempt to start the vehicle if
the electrolyte in the battery is
suspected of being frozen.
Make sure both batt eries are of the 12
volt type and that the booster cables
have insulated clamps and are
approved for use with 12 volt batteries.
Do not disconnect the discharged
battery.
Do not connect posit ive (+) terminals
to negative (-) terminals and ensure
booster cables are kept away from
any moving parts in the engine compartment.
Do not connect a booster cable to the
negative (-) terminal of the battery.
Always connect to the recommended
earthing point.
WARNING
To avoid serious in jury use extreme
caution when removing the booster
cables as the engine will be running
on the previously disabl ed vehicle. This means
that you may be workin g close to components
which are moving at high speed, carry high
voltage, or may be hot.

Using the Jaguar tyre repair kit
Note: All vehicle drivers and occupants should
be made aware that a temporary repair has
been made to a tyre fitted to the vehicle. They
should also be made aware of the special
driving conditions im posed when using a
repaired tyre.
Repair procedure
1. Open the tyre repair kit and peel off the
maximum speed label. Attach the label to
the fascia in the driver's field of vision.
Take care not to obstruct any of the
instruments or warning lights.
2. Uncoil the compressor power cable and
the inflation hose.
3. Unscrew the orange cap from the sealant
bottle receiver and the sealant bottle cap.
4. Screw the sealant bottle into the receiver
(clockwise) until tight.
•Screwing the bottle onto the receiver will
pierce the bottle's se al. Do not unscrew
a full, or partly us ed bottle from the
receiver. Doing so will result in sealant
leaking from the bottle.
5. Remove the valve cap from the damaged
tyre.
6. Remove the protective cap from the
inflation hose and connect the inflation
hose to the tyre valve. Ensure that the hose
is screwed on firmly.
7. Ensure that the compressor switch is in
the off (0) position.
8. Insert the power cable connector into the
auxiliary power socket. See AUXILIARY
POWER SOCKETS (page 125).
WARNINGS
Avoid skin contact with the sealant
which contains natu ral rubber latex.
If the tyre inflati on pressure does not
reach 1.8 bar (26 lbf/in², 180 kPa)
within seven minutes, the tyre may
have suffered excessive damage. A temporary
repair will not be poss ible, and the vehicle
should not be driven until the tyre has been
replaced.
CAUTIONS
Before attempting a ty re repair, ensure
that the vehicle is parked safely, as far
away from passing traffic as possible.
Ensure that the parki ng brake is applied
and P (Park) is selected.
Do not attempt to remove foreign
objects such as nails, screws, etc. from
the tyre.
Always run the engine when using the
compressor, unless the vehicle is in an
enclosed or poorly ventil ated space, as this
may cause asphyxiation.
To prevent overheating, do not operate
the compressor continuously for longer
than ten minutes.
WARNING
Check the tyre sidewall prior to
inflation. If there are any cracks,
bumps or similar damage, do not
attempt to inflate the tyre. Do not stand
directly beside the tyre while the compressor
is pumping. Watch the ty re sidewall. If any
cracks, bumps or simila r damage appear, turn
off the compressor and let the air out by
means of the pressure relief valve. Do not
continue to use the tyre.
