STEERING COLUMN LOCK
The steering column has an electronic lock,
which locks and unlocks in conjunction with
the vehicle Locking/Alarm system. The steering
column lock also locks when the ignition is
switched off, after a time delay. If the steering
column lock malfunctions, Steering Column
Locked is displayed in the message centre. If
this occurs:
1. Lock and then unlock the vehicle using the
Smart Key.
2. Try again to unlock the steering column
lock, by turning the steering wheel gently
to the left and right.
3. If the malfunction pers ists, seek qualified
assistance immediately.
SWITCHING OFF THE ENGINE
With the gear sele ctor in position P, press the
engine START/STOP butt on. The engine will
stop and the ignition sy stem will return to
convenience mode. The audio, telephone and
touch screen systems will revert to stand-by
mode and the JaguarDrive selector will retract
into the centre console.

Do not allow the vehicle to remain
stationary with a drive gear selected and
the engine running . Always select P or
N if the engine is to idle for a prolonged
period.
ROTARY GEAR SELECTOR
The JaguarDrive selector elevates out of the
centre console when the engine is started, in
readiness for gear selection
P should be selected before switching off the
engine. However, it is possible to switch the
engine off with R, D or S selected - the selector
will automatica lly select P, while retracting into
the centre console.
Note: If the engine is switched off with N
selected, the system will wait for 10 minutes
before selecting P. This procedure is to allow
the vehicle to be conveyed through a car wash
only and should not be used for vehicle
recovery purposes.
In the event of a vehicle breakdown, the
transmission will automatically select P. This
prevents the vehicle from being towed on all
four wheels. Therefore, vehicle recovery
should only be undertaken by suitably qualified
personnel.
IF THE SELECTOR FAILS TO ELEVATE
If the JaguarDrive selector is obstructed
remove the obstruction and then start the
engine. The selector s hould elevate as normal.
If the selector still fails to elevate, even if there
is no obstruction, a faul t in the system is
indicated. The selector ca n still be used in the
lowered position, but be aware that it will not
automatically select P when the engine is
switched off. P should be selected manually.
The fault should be re ctified by a Dealer/
Authorised Repairer at the earliest opportunity.
MANUAL GEAR SELECTION
When the gear selector is in the D position,
manual mode may be directly accessed by the
single action of operating the steering wheel
mounted shift paddles.
If continued use of manua l mode is required,
the gear selector may be subsequently moved
to the S position to enter permanent manual
mode.
If the gear selector remains in the D position,
temporary manual mode will be held whilst the
driver is accelerating, decelerating, cornering
or continuing to request shifts via the paddles.
LIMP-HOME MODE
Note: The driver should be aware that the
vehicle’s performance will be reduced and
must take this into account when driving. Also
the use of the Jaguar Sequential Shift paddles
will be disabled. In this event, seek qualified
assistance as soon as possible.
In the event of an electrical or mechanical
failure, transmission ope ration will be limited.
P , R , N , D and S may still be used to enable the
vehicle to be driven to a safe area.
Some faults will cause the selector to be locked
in position until the ignition is switched off. If
the selected range flashes, it signifies that the
driver request cannot be engaged. Re-select N
and repeat the attempt.
If the transmission is st ill unable to select the
requested gear, contact your Dealer/
Authorised Repairer.

Adaptive cruise control
96
Adaptive cruise controlADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL
OVERVIEW
The Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) system is
designed to aid the driver to maintain a gap
from the vehicle ahead or a set road speed if
there is no slower vehicle ahead. ACC is
available at vehicle sp eeds of 32 to 180 km/h
(20 to 112 mph).
ACC is not a collision warning or
avoidance system. Additionally, ACC
will not react to:
• Stationary or slow moving vehicles below
10 km/h (6 mph).
• Pedestrians or objec ts in the roadway.
• Oncoming vehicles in the same lane.
The ACC system uses a radar sensor, which
projects a beam directly forward of the vehicle
to detect objects ahead.
The radar sensor is mounted in the centre of
the lower bumper, to provide a clear view
forward for the radar beam.
• Only use ACC when conditions are
favourable (i.e. main roads with free
flowing traffic).
• Do not use in poor visibility, specifically
fog, heavy rain, spray or snow.
• Do not use on icy or slippery roads.
• It is the drivers respons ibility to stay alert,
drive safely and be in control of the vehicle
at all times.
• Keep the area in front of the radar sensor
free from dirt, meta l badges or objects,
including vehicle front protectors, which
may prevent the sensor from operating.
• Do not use ACC when entering or leaving a
motorway.
USING ACC
1. SET: Roll the thumbwheel upward or
downwards to increase or decrease speed,
until the desired speed is achieved.
2. Gap increase or decrease control. Four
settings are selectable by rolling the
thumbwheel. See 98, CHANGING THE
FOLLOW MODE SET GAP .
3. CANCEL: Cancels but retains the set speed in memory.
4. RESUME : Resumes the ACC set speed
after it has been disengaged.
The system is operated by controls mounted
on the steering wheel. The driver can also
intervene at any time by use of the brake or
accelerator pedals.
Setting the vehicle speed, activating, and
deactivating ACC is done in the same way as
using cruise control.

ACC MALFUNCTION
If a malfunction occurs during operation of the
system in cruise or follow modes, the ACC
system will switch off a nd cannot be used until
the fault is cleared. The message Driver
Intervene appears briefly and is then replaced
by the message Cruise Not Available . If
malfunction of the ACC or any related system
occurs at any other time, the message Cruise
Not Available will be displayed. It will not be
possible to activate the ACC system in any
mode.
Accumulations of dirt, snow or ice on the
sensor or cover may inhibit ACC operation.
Fitting of a vehicle front protector or metallised
badges may also affect ACC operation.
The ACC system relies on its radar to detect
objects and constantly scans ahead. If the
radar is unable to detect any objects ahead,
then ACC will be deactivated, the audible alarm
sounds and the message Driver Intervene
displays briefly. The message ACC Sensor
Blocked will then be displayed.
The same messages may also be displayed
while driving on open ro ads with few objects
for the radar to detect.
Clearing the obstruction fr om in front of the
sensor allows the system to return to normal
operation. If the obstr uction is present when
ACC is inactive (e.g. on initial starting or with
the ACC system switched off), the message
ACC Sensor Blocked will be displayed.
Tyres other than those recommended for your
vehicle, may have different sizes. This can
affect the correct operation of the ACC.
FORWARD ALERT FUNCTION
Limited detect ion and warning of objects
ahead, is provided duri ng ACC operation by the
ACC Forward Alert warning. The enhanced
forward alert feature additionally provides
warnings when ACC is not engaged; if an object
is detected close ahead, then the warning tone
and message will be issu ed. The brakes will not
be applied.
The forward alert system does not initiate any
action. The driver must take appropriate action
when the Forward Alert message is displayed.
However, the system monitors driver actions
(e.g. braking, steering or indicating) and may
not initiate the warning display if the
appropriate action has been taken early
enough.
Press the button to switch Forward alert on or
off.
When the warning lamp in the
instrument panel is on, Forward
alert is active.

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.

INTELLIGENT EMERGENCY BRAKING
The system may not react to slow
moving vehicles.
The system will not react to stationary
vehicles, or vehicles that are not
travelling in the same direction as
your vehicle.
Warnings and automatic braking may
not occur if the dist ance to the vehicle
ahead is very small, or if the steering
wheel and pedal movements are large
(to avoid a collis ion for example).
IEB (Intelligent Em ergency Braking)
uses the same radar sensor as
Adaptive Cruise Control and Forward
Alert. The same performance
limitations apply, see 96, ADAPTIVE
CRUISE CONTROL OVERVIEW.
IEB is available at all speeds to automatically
apply the brakes if an unavoidable collision
with a moving vehicle in front is detected.
If there is an imminent risk of collision, an
audible warning is given. If the collision then
becomes unavoidable, the IEB system applies
the brakes at up to maximum pressure. After
IEB has activated, IEB System Was Activated
is displayed in the message centre and the
system is inhibited from further operation until
reset by a Dealer/Authorised Repairer.
IEB will function even if Forward Alert and ACC
are switched off. If the radar sensor is blocked,
by snow or heavy rain for example, or there is
a fault with the system, IEB Not Available is
displayed in the message centre. The vehicle
can still be driven and the braking system will
still operate, but without IEB. If the cause of
this message being disp layed is thought to be
other than a blocked rada r sensor, consult your
Dealer/Authorised Repairer.

DIGITAL RADIO RECEPTION
DAB radio can significa ntly increase the
number of radio channels /stations available.
The DAB signals are transmitted to most major
cities, towns and motorway networks.
Digital radio is transm itted from regional
transmitters. Some local channels are not
available outside th e range of their
transmitters. If you want to listen to local
channels as you move around the country, use
the auto-tune function (AUTO) to build new
channel lists.
Note: If any auxiliary electrical equipment is
connected to the vehicle, then this may reduce
the DAB radio sound quality.
ENSEMBLES
Unlike AM/FM radio, DAB transmits several
channels/stations on a single frequency. A
group of channels is k nown as an ensemble.
Some channels within the ensemble may have
subchannels offering seve ral listening options.
If reception is lost when the vehicle is in
motion, the vehicle may be out of range of the
ensemble. To build a new list of ensembles,
select Auto-tune .
