DAYLIGHT RUNNING LAMPS
With the rotary control in the OFF or AUTO
position, the front day light running lamps will
switch on automatically with the following
conditions:
• The ignition is on.
• The engine is running.
• The gear selector is in D (Drive) or R
(Reverse) - market dependent.
Note: The lamps remain on if the gear
selector is subsequently moved to N
(Neutral)
• The parking brake is not applied (is
released) - market dependent.
APPROACH LAMPS
The headlamps can be illu minated remotely for
a programmed length of time, by pressing the
headlamp button on the Jaguar Smart key. See
4, UNLOCKING THE VEHICLE . Press the
button again to switch off.
Note: In some markets, a second press will
illuminate the reverse lamps and a third press
is required to turn the lamps off.
ADAPTIVE FRONT LIGHTING SYSTEM
(AFS)
These lamps broaden the beam of the
headlamps when cornering in different
circumstances.
Static bending lamps : The static bending
lamps operate when necessary, to provide an
even broader light spread.
Cornering lamps : At speeds up to 40 km/h
(25 mph), to provide improved visibility at
junctions, the system switches on the lamp if it
has received an input from the vehicle's
direction indicator. Only the lamp on the same
side as the operating indicator illuminates. The
lamp will self cancel after 3 minutes of
continuous operation.
WINDSCREEN WIPER DETECTION
This function only operates when autolamps is
selected. The side lamps, tail lamps and
headlamps will switch on automatically if the
windscreen wipers are switched on for 20
seconds or more. Once the windscreen wipers
are switched off, the side lamps, tail lamps and
headlamps will automatically switch off 4
minutes later.

Brakes
87
BrakesIMPORTANT INFORMATION
Do not rest your foot on the brake
pedal whilst the vehicle is in motion.
Never allow the vehicle to coast
(freewheel) with the engine turned off.
The engine must be running to provide
full braking assistance. The brakes
will still function wi th the engine off,
but far more pressure will be required
to operate them.
If the red brake warning lamp
illuminates, safely bring the vehicle to
a stop, as quickly as possible and
seek qualified assistance.
Never place non-approved floor
matting or any other obstructions
under the brake pedal. This restricts
pedal travel and braking efficiency.
Driving through heavy rain or water can have
an adverse effect on braking efficiency. Under
such circumstances, it is recommended that
you lightly apply the brak es intermittently to
dry the brakes.
BRAKE WARNING LAMPS
Note: This warning lamp will also illuminate if
there is a fault with the parking brake. See 88,
ELECTRIC PARKIN G BRAKE (EPB).
ELECTRONIC BRAKE FORCE
DISTRIBUTION (EBD)
EBD balances the distribution of braking forces
between the wheels on the front and rear axles,
to maintain maximum braking under all vehicle
loading conditions.
For example; Under light loads, EBD applies
less braking effort to the rear wheels, to
maintain stability. Conv ersely, it allows full
braking effort to the rear wheels when the
vehicle is heavily laden.
A fault with the EBD system is indicated by the
red brake warning lamp and the message EBD
FAULT . The braking system will still operate,
but without EBD assist ance. Seek qualified
assistance to have the fault rectified.
EMERGENCY BRAKE ASSIST (EBA)
The EBA system measures the rate at which the
brake pressure increases. If the system detects
an emergency braki ng situation, EBA
automatically initiates fu ll braking effect. This
can reduce stopping distances in critical
situations.
A fault with the EBA system is indicated by the
brake warning lamp illuminating and
Emergency Brake Assist Not Available
displaying in the message centre. The braking
system will still func tion, but without EBA
assistance. Seek qualified assistance to have
the fault rectified.
EMERGENCY STOP SIGNAL (ESS)
ESS (Emergency Stop Signal) automatically
activates the hazard warning lights during
emergency braking to warn other road users
and reduce the risk of a collision.
If the parking brake
is released and
this red warning lamp illuminates
while driving and/or the message
Brake Fluid Low is displayed in the
message centre, check the brake
fluid level at the earliest
opportunity and top-up as
required.
If this amber warning lamp
illuminates while driving and/or
ABS Fault is displayed in the
message centre, drive with extra
caution, avoid heavy braking
where possible, and seek qualified
assistance as soon as possible.

Cruise control
94
Cruise controlUSING CRUISE CONTROL
The cruise (speed) contro l system can be used
by the driver to maintain a selected vehicle
speed above 30 km/h (18 mph).
1. SET (+ / - ) : Roll upwards to engage cruise
control. Roll up or down to increase or
decrease the set cruising speed.
2. CANCEL : Press to disengage cruise
control. The set sp eed memory will be
retained.
3. RESUME : Resumes the cruise control set
speed after it has been disengaged.
SETTING VEHICLE SPEED
Only use cruise control when
conditions are favourable (e.g.
straight, dry, open roads with light
traffic).
In certain conditions, such as a steep
downhill gradient, the vehicle speed
may exceed the set cruising speed.
This is because eng ine braking is
unable to maintain or reduce the
vehicle speed. Driver intervention
may be required.
When you are travelling at the speed you
require press the set button.
Cruise control will enga ge and maintain the set
speed and you can remove your foot from the
accelerator pedal. Note:
Cruise control w ill automatically
disengage when the brake pedal is pressed or
when the vehicle speed falls below 30 km/h
(18 mph).
CHANGING THE CRUISE SPEED
There are two ways to change the set speed:
• Accelerate or decele rate to the desired
speed then roll the SET control upwards.
• Increase or decrease the speed by rolling
the SET control up or down until the
desired speed is obtained.
Note: The set speed can be increased or
decreased in steps of 2 km/h (1 mph), by
rolling the SET control up or down briefly until
the desired spee d is obtained.
RESUMING THE SET SPEED
If the vehicle is accelerated above the set
speed, then the set speed will be resumed
when the accelerator pedal is released.
If the CANCEL button ( 2) or the brake pedal is
pressed, the cruise cont rol will disengage but
the set speed memory will be retained. Press
RESUME (3) and the vehicle will return to the
set speed.
Note: Cruise control will not resume at speeds
below 30 km/h (18 mph).
RESUME should only be used if the
driver is aware of the set speed and
intends to return to it.
It is not recomme nded to resume set
speed when a low gear is selected as
excessive engine speeds will occur.

Adaptive cruise control
101
The sensitivity of th e warning can only be
adjusted with ACC disengaged. Adjust as
follows:
• Roll the gap adjustment control
downwards to decrease the sensitivity of
the alert.
• Roll the gap adjustment control upwards to
increase the sensitivity of the alert.
Note: The forward alert set gap is retained
when the ignition is switched off.
Forward Alert is displayed in the message
centre.ADVANCED EMERGENCY BRAKE
ASSIST
The system may not react to slow
moving vehicles and will not react to
stationary vehicles or vehicles
travelling in the opposite direction.
Warnings may not appear if the
distance to the vehicle ahead is very
small or if steering wheel or pedal
movements are large (e.g. to avoid a
collision).
The system utilises the same radar
sensor as ACC and Forward alert - the
same limitations of performance
apply.
Advanced emergency brake assist is available
at speeds above approximately 7 km/h (5 mph)
and improves brakin g response during
emergency braking, when a moving vehicle is
detected close ahead.
If the risk of collision increases after the
Forward Alert warning is displayed, advanced
emergency brake assist is activated. The
brakes are automatically applied gently in
preparation for rapid braking (this may be
noticeable). If the brake pedal is then pressed
quickly, full braking is implemented, even if
only light pressure is ap plied to the pedal. See
87, EMERGENCY BRAKE ASSIST (EBA) .
Note: Braking performance will only be
improved if the driver applies the brakes.
Advanced emergency brake assist will function
even if Forward Alert and ACC are switched off.
If there is a fault with the system, Forward
Alert Unavailable is displayed in the message
centre. The vehicle can st ill be driven and the
braking system will still operate, but without
advanced emergency brake assistance. Seek
qualified assistance to have the fault rectified.

Tyre repair kit
149
USING THE TYRE REPAIR KIT
Avoid skin contact with the sealant
which contains natural rubber latex.
If the tyre inflation pressure does not
reach 1.8 bar (26 psi, 180 kPa) within
seven minutes, the tyre may have
suffered excessive damage. A
temporary repair will not be possible,
and the vehicle should not be driven
until the tyre has been replaced.
Before attempting a tyre repair, ensure
that the vehicle is parked safely, as far
away from passing traffic as possible.
Ensure that the parking 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 ventilated space, as
this may cause asphyxiation.
To prevent overheatin g, do not operate
the compressor continuously for longer
than ten minutes.
Note: All vehicle drivers and occupants should
be made aware that a temporary repair has
been made to a tyre fitt ed to the vehicle. They
should also be made aware of the special
driving conditions im posed when using a
repaired tyre.
REPAIR PROCEDURE
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 besi de the tyre while
the compressor is pumping. Watch the
tyre sidewall. If any cracks, bumps or
similar 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.
1. Open the tyre repair kit and peel off the
maximum speed label. Attach the label to
the facia in the driver's field of vision. Take
care not to obstruct an y 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 seal. Once the
receiver has been fitted, a ratchet
prevents it from being removed.
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.
9. Unless the vehicle is in an enclosed area,
start the engine.

Fluid level checks
172
Do not drive the vehi cle with the fluid
level below the MIN mark.
With the vehicle on level ground, check the
fluid level at least every week (more frequently
in high mileage or arduous operating
conditions).
The brake fluid reservoi r is located beneath a
cover on the raised platform to the rear of the
main underbonnet area.
1. Release the catch and lift the cover
forwards.
2. Pull the cover rearwards, to release the
hinges.
3. Clean the filler cap with a clean, dry cloth
before removing, to prevent dirt or
moisture from entering the reservoir.
4. Remove the filler cap.
5. The brake fluid level should be between the
MIN and the MAX marks on the side of the
reservoir.
The fluid level may drop slightly during normal
use, as a result of brake pad wear, but should
not be allowed to drop below the MIN mark.TOPPING UP THE BRAKE FLUID
Brake fluid will damage painted
surfaces. Soak up any spillage with an
absorbent cloth immediately and wash
the area with a mixture of car shampoo
and water.
Only use new fluid from an airtight
container (fluid from open containers or
fluid previously bled from the system,
will have absorbed moisture, which will
adversely affect performance, and must
not be used).
Top up the brake fluid with Shell DOT
ESL brake fluid. If unavailable, use a
low viscosity brake fluid that meets ISO
4925 class 6 specificat ion. Only fluid of
this type and standard may be used.
Do not top up the brake fluid to the
maximum mark unless the brake pads
have been replaced. If unsure, seek
qualified assistance.
1. Top up the reservoir to at least the
minimum mark.
2. Replace the reservoir cap.
3. Refit the reservoir cover.
