Head restraintsFRONT HEAD RESTRAINTS
Adjust the head restraint so that the
top of the head restraint is above the
centre line of the he ad. An incorrectly
adjusted head restraint increases the
risk of death or serious injury in the
event of a collision.
It is possible to swivel the head
restraint forwards or backwards. For
greater protection in the event of a
collision, the head restraint should be
adjusted so that it is as close to the
back of the head as is practical.
Never adjust the head restraints while
the vehicle is in motion.
Powered head restraints:
1. To adjust the height of the head restraint,
see 12, ELECTRIC SEATS .
2. To adjust the angle of the head restraint,
press the locking button on the side of the
restraint and tilt to the desired position.
Note: It is not possible to remove powered
head restraints.
Manual head restraints:
Do not drive or carry passengers with
the head restraint removed from an
occupied seat. Th e absence of a
correctly adjusted head restraint
increases the risk of neck injury in the
event of a collision.
Always store a removed head restraint
securely. 1.
To raise, pull the rest raint upwards, it will
click and lock in position.
Note: Do not try to raise the head restraint
further than the thir d adjustment position.
2. To lower, depress the locking collar and
push down on the restraint.
3. To adjust the angle of the head restraint,
press the locking button on the side of the
restraint and tilt to the desired position.
Note: The head restraint can only be removed
if the seat is moved forward or back to create
more space.
Manual head restraints may be removed, if
required (e.g. to fit larger child seats). Raise
the head restraint to its uppermost position
and press the locking collar. Lift the restraint
out of the seat back.
Ensure the head restraint is refitted before the
seat is used by a passenger.
To refit the head restraint, ensure it is facing
the correct direction, insert the stems of the
head restraint into the sockets and push it
downwards until at le ast the first click.

REAR HEAD RESTRAINTS
Head restraints are designed to
support the head, not the back of the
neck. The head restraint must be
positioned correctly to restrain
rearward movement of the head in the
event of a collision.
While stationary, adjust the head
restraint so that the top of the head
restraint is above the centre line of the
head. An incorrectly adjusted head
restraint increases the risk of death or
serious injury in the event of a
collision.
1. If the head restraint is to be lowered, press
and hold the locking collar (it is
unnecessary to press the locking collar to
raise the restraint).
2. Move the head restraint up or down to the
required position.
REAR HEAD RESTRAINT REMOVAL
Do not drive or carry passengers with
the head restraint removed from an
occupied seat. The absence of a
correctly adjusted head restraint
increases the risk of neck injury in the
event of a collision.
Always store a removed head restraint
securely.
It is possible to remove the rear head
restraints, if required (e.g. to enable the fitment
of a child restraint), as follows:
• Raise the head restraint to its uppermost
position and press the locking collar.
• Lift the head restraint out of the seat.
Ensure the head restraint is refitted before the
seat is used by a passenger.
To refit the head restraint, ensure it is facing
the correct direction, insert the stems of the
head restraint into the sockets and push it
downwards until at le ast the first click.

1. If children are to be carried in the rear seat
positions, it is recommended that the rear
door interior handles are disabled.
To change the child lock settings:-
•Open the door to access the child
safety lock.
• Insert the emergency key into the slot
and rotate a quarter of a turn, to enable
or disable the interior door handle, as
required.
2. To install an ISOFIX child seat (not
Australia):-
•Raise the head restraint on the relevant
seat.
• Locate the lower anchor bars which are
accessible through the gap between
the seat back and seat base. Insert the
protective guides supplied with the
child seat as shown. The insertion
positions for the guides are identified
by the ISOFIX labels.
• Slide the child seat locking mechanism
into the protective sleeves and onto the
anchor bars.
• Test the security of the child restraint.
To do this, attempt to pull the restraint
away from the vehicle seat and twist
the restraint from side to side. Even if
the restraint appears secure you
should always check the anchor points
visually to ensure correct attachment.
Note: Always ensure that if an upper tether
is provided, it is fitted and tightened
correctly.
3. To adjust the seat belt height:-
•Press to release the catch.
• With the catch depressed slide the
mechanism up or down to the required
height. Release the catch and ensure
the locking mechanism has engaged. The use of comfort clips or devices
that would create sl
ack in the seat
belt system, is not advised.
No modifications or additions
should be made by the user which
will either prevent the seat belt
adjusting devices from operating
to remove slack, or prevent the
seat belt assembly from being
adjusted to remove slack.
4. Draw the belt out smoothly, ensure that the
belt height, the seat , and your position on
the seat are correct.
Seat belts are designed to bear
upon the bony structure of the
body, and should be worn low
across the front of the pelvis or the
pelvis, chest and shoulders, as
applicable; wearing the lap
section of the belt across the
abdominal area must be avoided.
Seat belts should be adjusted as
firmly as possible, consistent with
comfort, to provide the protection
for which they have been
designed. A slack belt will greatly
reduce the protection afforded to
the wearer.
Belts should not be worn with the
straps twisted.
Each belt assembly must only be
used by one occupant; it is
dangerous to put a belt around a
child being carried on the
occupant's lap.
The occupants of the front seats
should not travel with the seat
back at more than 30 degrees from
upright. Doing so will reduce the
protection afforded by the seat
belt.

Never place anything between you
and the seat belt. It can be
dangerous and reduce the
effectiveness of t he seat belt in
preventing injury.
5. With the seat belt correctly positioned,
place the metal tongue into the buckle
nearest to you. Press it in until a click is
heard. Ensure that all slack has been taken
up by the retractor and the belt fits tightly
across the hips.
To release the seat belt, press the red
button.
Note: When releasing the seat belt it is
advisable to hold the belt before pressing
the release button. This will prevent the
belt from retracting too quickly.
6. Use of seat belts during pregnancy:
Position the lap strap comfortably across
the hips beneath the abdomen. Place the
diagonal part of the se at belt between the
breasts and to the side of the abdomen.
Position the seat belt correctly for
the safety of the mother and
unborn child. Never wear just the
lap strap, and never sit on the lap
strap whilst using just the
shoulder strap. Both of these
actions are extremely dangerous
and increase your risk of serious
injury in the event of an accident
or during emergency braking.
Never place anything between you
and the seat belt in an attempt to
cushion the impact in the event of
an accident. It can be dangerous
and reduce the effectiveness of
the seat belt in preventing injury.
Ensure that the seat belt is not
slack or twisted. 7.
Tether strap anchorages. See 31,
INSTALLING TETHER ANCHORAGE CHILD
RESTRAINTS .
Child restraint anchorages are
designed to withstand only those
loads imposed by correctly fitted
child restraints. Under no
circumstances are they to be used
for adult seat belts, harnesses or
for attaching other items or
equipment to the vehicle.
If a child seat or restraint system
is to be fitted to the centre seating
position, the centre armrest must
be in the stowed position (folded
into the seat).
Note: A tether anchorage is provided for
the centre seat positio n. Do not use this
anchor position with an ISOFIX child seat.
SEAT BELT WARNING LAMP
The warning lamp will also flash in conjunction
with the Beltminder warning chime.
BELTMINDER
The warning lamp in the
instrument panel stays illuminated
when the driver’s or front
passenger’s seat belt is not
fastened (if the passenger seat is
occupied). The lamp should
extinguish when th e seat belt is
fastened.
The beltminder system warns the
driver (using the seat belt warning
lamp) when the seat belt of an
occupied front seat is not fastened
or is unfastened during a journey.

Children typically require the use of a
booster seat appropriate to their age
and size, thereby enabling the seat
belts to be properly fitted, reducing
the risk of injury in a crash. Children
could be endangered in a crash if their
child restraints are not properly
secured in the vehicle.
Do not use a child seat that hooks over
the seat back. This type of seat cannot
be satisfactorily secured and is
unlikely to be safe for your child.
The seat belts fitted to your vehicle are
designed for adults and larger children. It is
very important for all infants and children
under 12 years of age to be restrained in a
suitable child safety seat appropriate to their
age and size.
If it is essential that a child travels in the front
passenger seat (and national legislation
permits this), Jaguar recommends that the
following preparations ar e made before fitting
the child restraint.
• Adjust the front passenger seat fully
rearwards.
• Adjust the lumbar support to its minimum
support position.
• Adjust the seat cushion to its highest
position. If cushion front tilt adjustment is
possible, adjust it to its lowest position.
• Adjust the seat back to the fully upright
position.
• Adjust the seat be lt adjustable upper
anchorage to its lowest position.
Extreme hazard! Do not use a
rearward facing child restraint on a
seat protected by an airbag in front of
it. This symbol, affixed to th
e end of the fascia on
the passenger side, warn s against the use of a
rear-facing child seat in the front passenger
seat, when a front passenger airbag is fitted
and operational.
CHILD RESTRAINT CHECK LIST
Every time a child travels in the vehicle observe
the following:-
• Use appropriate child restraints.
• Carefully follow the restraint system
manufacturers instructions.
• Adjust the harnesses for every child on
every trip.
• Ensure that all slack is removed from the
adult seat belt.
• Always attach the top tether when
installing an ISOFIX seat.
• Always check the security of the child
restraint.
• Do not dress a child in bulky clothing, or
place any objects/padding between the
child and the restraint.
• Regularly check the fit and condition of
child restraints. If the fit is poor, or
wear/damage is visible replace the restraint
immediately.
• Set a good example - al ways wear your
seat belt.

Child restraint anchorages are
designed to withstand only those
loads imposed by corre ctly fitted child
restraints. Under no circumstances
are they to be used for adult seat
belts, harnesses or for attaching other
items or equipment to the vehicle.BOOSTER SEATS
In a situation where a child is too large to fit
into a child safety seat, but is still too small to
safely fit the three point belt properly, a booster
seat is recommended for maximum safety.
Follow the manufacturer's instructions for
fitting and use, then adjust the seat belt to suit.

ISOFIX ANCHOR POINTS (not
Australia)
Do not attempt to fit ISOFIX restraints
to the centre rear seating position.
The anchor bars are not designed to
hold an ISOFIX restraint in this
position.
If the restraint is not correctly
anchored, there is a si gnificant risk of
injury to the child in the event of a
collision or em ergency braking.
If removing a head restraint in order to
fit a child restraint, always secure the
head restraint when storing it. Both of the outer rear seat positions are
equipped to accept
ISOFIX restraints.

SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONERS
The seat belt pre-tens ioners activate in
conjunction with the Supplementary Restraint
System (SRS) to provide additional protection
in the event of a severe frontal impact. They
automatically reduce any slack in a seatbelt to
reduce forward movement of a front seat
occupant.
The seat belt pre-tensioners will
activate only once and then must be
replaced. Failure to replace them will
reduce the effectiveness of the SRS in
reducing the risk of serious injury or
death in the event of an accident.
After any impact, have the seat belts
and pre-tensioners checked and, if
necessary, replaced by a Land Rover
Dealer/Authorised Repairer.
AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT EFFECTS
When an airbag inflates, a fine
powder is released. This is normal
and not an indication of a malfunction.
The powder may cause irritation to the
skin and should be thoroughly flushed
from eyes and any cuts or abrasions.
Airbag deployment is accompanied by
a very loud noise which may cause
discomfort and temporary loss of
hearing.
AIRBAG WARNING LAMP
If the warning lamp indicates that a
fault is present in the system, do not
use a child restraint on the front
passenger seat.
If any of the following warning indicator
conditions occur, th e vehicle should be
checked by your Dealer /Authorised repairer
immediately.
• The warning indicator fails to illuminate
when the START/STOP button is initially
switched on.
• The warning indicator fails to extinguish
within six seconds of the START/STOP
button being switched on.
• The warning indicator illuminates at any
time other than during the bulb check.
Theairbag warning indicator is
mounted in the instrument panel,
andwill illuminate as a bulb check
when the START/STOP buttonis
switched on.
