Introduction

DATA RECORDING
Service data recording
Service data recorders in your vehicle are
capable of collecting and storing diagnostic
information about your vehicle. This potentially
includes information about the performance or
status of various syst ems and modules in the
vehicle such as engine, throttle, steering or
brakes.
In order to properly di agnose and service your
vehicle, Jaguar service and repair facilities may
access vehicle diagnos tic information through
a direct connection to your vehicle.
Event data recording
This vehicle is equipped with an Event Data
Recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR
is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like
situations, such as an air bag deployment or
hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in
understanding how a vehicle’s systems
performed. The EDR is de signed to record data
related to vehicle dynamics and safety systems
for a short period of ti me, typically 30 seconds
or less. The EDR in this vehicle is designed to
record such data as:
• How various systems in your vehicle were
operating.
• Whether or not the driver and passenger
safety belts were buckled/fastened.
• How far (if at all) the driver was depressing
the accelerator and/or the brake pedal.
• How fast the vehicle was travelling.
• The rotational position of the steering
wheel.
These data can help provide a better
understanding of the ci rcumstances in which
crashes and injuries occur. Note:
EDR data are recorded by your vehicle
only if a non-trivial cr ash situation occurs; no
data are recorded by the EDR under normal
driving conditions and no personal data (e.g.
name, gender, age and crash location) are
recorded. However, other parties, such as law
enforcement, could combine the EDR data with
the type of personally id entifying data routinely
acquired during a cr ash investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special
equipment is required, and access to the
vehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the
vehicle manufacturer, other parties, such as
law enforcement, that have the special
equipment, can read the information if they
have access to the vehicle or the EDR.
DISABILITY MODIFICATIONS
Occupants with disabili ties which may require
modification of the ve hicle, must contact a
Dealer/Authorised Re pairer before any
modifications are made.

specification.
Owners should ensure that any parts or
accessories fitted to the vehicle while travelling
abroad, will also conform to the legal
requirements of their own country when they
return home.

electrical or physical interference,
either of which could easily damage the
system and cause inadvertent operation or a
malfunction of the airbag module.

Locks

Steering column lock
Your vehicle is fitted with an electronic steering
column lock. The column unlocks when it
detects a Jaguar Smart Key inside the vehicle.
The steering column automatically locks when
the starter switch is turned off and the driver's
door is opened.
Any malfunction of the steering column lock
will be indicated by the message STEERING
COLUMN LOCKED displaying in the message
centre. If this occurs:
1. Press the starter button to return to the
convenience mode.
2. Try again to unlock the steering column
lock, by turning the steering wheel gently
to the left and right.
3. If the malfunction st ill persists, seek
qualified assistance as soon as possible.
GLOBAL OPENING AND CLOSING
Global opening and closi ng is enabled/disabled
via the touch-screen.See PROGRAMMING THE
REMOTE CONTROL (page 21).
Window global opening
Press and hold the unlock button
on the Jaguar Smart Key for at least
three seconds. The alarm will
disarm, all doors and the luggage
compartment will unlock and all the windows
and sunroof will open.
Note: The windows and sunroof will continue
to open when the unlock button is released.
Press and hold the inte rior unlock button on
the fascia. After three seconds, all the windows
and the sunroof will open.
Note: The windows and sunroof will stop
opening when the unlock button is released.
CAUTION
During vehicle recovery, the Jaguar
Smart Key must remain inside the
vehicle (or be stowed in the starter control unit
in the centre console), so that the steering
column remains unlocked.WARNING
Accidental closing of an electrically
operated window or sunroof on
fingers, hands or any vulnerable part
of the body, can result in serious injury.
Always observe the following precautions:
Ensure that you have a clear view of all open
apertures on the vehicle and that all apertures
are unobstructed before activating global
closing.

Seats

SITTING IN THE CORRECT POSITION
The seat, head restraint, seat belt and airbags,
all contribute to the protection of the user.
Correct use of these components will give you
greater protection, therefore you should
observe the following points:
1. Sit in an upright position with the base of
your spine as far back as possible and the
seatback reclined no more than 30
degrees.
2. Do not move the driver's seat too close to
the steering wheel. Ideally, a minimum
distance of 254 mm (10 inches) is
recommended betwee n the breastbone
and the steering wheel airbag cover. Hold
the steering wheel in the correct position
with your arms slightly bent.
• Adjust the head restraint so that its highest
point is level with the top of your head. •
Position the seat belt so that it is mid-way
between your neck an d your shoulder. Fit
the strap tightly across your hips, not
across your stomach.
• Ensure that your driving position is
comfortable and enables you to maintain
full control of the vehicle.
WARNING
Do not adjust the seat while the
vehicle is moving. Doing so could
cause loss of vehicle control and
personal injury.

ADJUSTING THE STEERING WHEEL
The steering wheel can be adjusted for tilt and
reach, as follows:
1.Turn the switch to the COLUMN or AUTO
position.
2. Move the switch forwards or rearwards to
adjust reach.
3. Move the switch up or down to adjust tilt. Two steering wheel positions can be stored
and recalled by the dr
iver position memory
system.
The message centre will indicate which switch
position has been select ed by displaying the
message COLUMN ADJUST or COLUMN
ADJUST AUTO .
Entry and exit mode
Entry and exit mode provides automatic
movement of the steering column, to allow
easier entry to, or exit from, the vehicle.
Entry and exit mode is selected by setting the
steering column adjustment switch to the
AUTO position.
Exit: If the driver's door is opened, the steering
column will move to the uppermost tilt
position, unless alread y in that position.
Entry: When the door is closed and the ignition
is switched on, the steering column will return
to its previous position.
Note: If the steering column switch is moved
away from AUTO when the steering column is
in the Exit position, the steering column will
move back to its previous (driving) position,
when the driver's door is closed and the
ignition is switched on.
If the steering column position is manually
adjusted during Entry or Exit operation,
steering column movement will stop.
WARNING
Never adjust the steering wheel
position whilst the vehicle is in
motion. Doing so will reduce control
of the vehicle and may cause unpredictable
steering movements.
CAUTION
Do not use steering wheel mounted
security devices, as movement of the
steering wheel in entr y and exit mode, could
result in damage to the vehicle or possible
injury to the occupant.
