the wipers will automatically operate to
clear the windscreen when rain falls on to
the windscreen, or when moisture is
present.
For the wipers to operate, the ignition
switch must be in position ‘II’.
Note: When starting a journey with a wet
windscreen, the rain sensing wipers will
not operate immediately the ignition is
switched on, therefore, a flick wipe
should be used to clear the windscreen of
any moisture.
Caution: Ensure that AUTO is not
selected when entering a car wash or
damage to the wiper blades/arms can
occur.

4-32 On the Road
Windscreen Wash/Wipe
Push the button on the end of the switch
to obtain the wash/wipe programme.
If the wipers are selected off or
intermittent, the washers will operate at
slow speed during the washing action
when the button is pressed. When the
button is released, the wipers will
complete up to three further wipes.
A single wipe will take place 4 seconds
after the last wipe to clear any drips of
water from the windscreen.
If rain sensitive wipers are fitted and
selected then the wipers will operate until
no moisture is detected.
Headlight Powerwash
The headlight powerwash units (if fitted)
are mounted betw een the front
headlights.
The headlight powerwash feature will
operate if the ignition is in position ‘II’
and dipped or main beam headlights are
switched ON. It will not operate if the
washer fluid level is low.
When the windscreen wash/wipe button
is pressed, the headlight powerwash
directs two short burs ts, 3 seconds apart,
at the headlights. If the wash/wipe button
is held, the headlamp wash cycle will
continue for up to 20 seconds.
The headlight powerwash will operate the
first time the wash/w ipe button is pressed

headlight powerwash will operate on the
next press of the wash/wipe button. Note:
If the washer fluid level is low in
the reservoir the windscreen wipers will
not operate when windscreen wash is
selected even though there may be washer
fluid remaining in the reservoir and
sprayed onto the screen. This is to prevent
damage to the blades , or scratching of the
glass, or smearing dirt across the screen.

4-60 On the Road
Use of Headlamps In Daylight
When visibility is poor the headlamps
with dipped beam setting should be
switched on so that the vehicle may be
seen more easily by other road users.
The instrument illumination dimmer
control adjusts the brightness of the panel
lighting.
Engine Oil Consumption
A certain amount of oil consumption is
normal. The rate of consumption will
depend on the following:
• The quality and viscosity of the oil.
• The amount of oxidation and dilution of the oil.
• Climatic conditions.
• The speed at which the engine is being operated.
• Road conditions.
Drivers should expect above normal
consumption when the engine is new,
and after running-in if high speeds are
sustained.
Winter Driving
Freeing a frozen door lock
Caution: Do not ap ply a proprietary
lock de-icer through the keyhole.
Should the lock beco me frozen, warm the
end of the key before use.
Windscreen wiper blades
Before driving away, clear any ice from
the windscreen and check that the wiper
blades are free. Switching on the heated
screen will accelerate this process.
The heated wiper park, if fitted, will come
on automatically.
Frost precautions
The correct concentration of coolant
must be maintained at all times when
‘topping up’ or ‘refilling’ the cooling
system.
Parking the Vehicle
When leaving the vehicle, remember the
following:
• Whenever the vehicle is being parked, apply the parkbrake and move the
gear selector to Park ‘P’.
• Do not leave children or pets in the vehicle unattended.
• Do not leave luggage or valuables on view. Always take your valuables with
you or lock them in the luggage
compartment.
• Remove the ignition key and spare keys, even when the vehicle is in your
garage.
• When the vehicle is unoccupied, close
all windows and lock all doors
securely.
• Park the vehicle where it can be seen. At night, park in a well-lit area.
• Ensure that the keys and the key transmitters are removed from the
vehicle before locking the doors,
and that all doors, the luggage
compartment and the hood are
closed.

Climate Control 5 - 3
5 Climate Control
Introduction
The cabin is supplied with filtered air
from a fully automatic electronic climate
control system with manual overrides.
Two systems are available:
• A two zone system which allows the front occupants to set individual
temperatures for the left and right
sides of the interior.
• A four zone system which allows front and rear occupants to set individual
temperatures, i.e. two front zones and
two rear zones.
Occupant controls
The main climate control panel is located
in the centre console above the radio and
audio controls. There are two types of
control panel for either two or four zone
systems:
• A dedicated control panel with LCD (liquid crystal display) screen
(see page 5 - 6).
• A multi-function touch control and display unit shared with navigation
and other systems. Where this control
unit is fitted, refer to the Jaguar
Touch-screen Handbook for the
detailed operating instructions. Where the four zone climate control
system is fitted, an additional control/
display panel for rear passenger use is
located at the rear of the centre console,
between the front seats.
Voice control
The climate control system may also be
operated by spoken commands if the
optional voice activation system is fitted.
For full information on the use of this
system refer to the JaguarVoice
Handbook.
Recommended Operation
Automatic climate control
Automatic climate control provides
efficient regulation of the vehicle
environment without constant
adjustments from the occupant.
Sensors inside the vehicle monitor
temperature, humidity and direct
sunlight. In response, the electronic
control system automatically adjusts the
heat input, blower speed, air intake and
airflow distribution so as to maintain the
selected temperature(s) and reduce
misting.
Automatic operation provides optimum
comfort under most driving conditions. It is recommended that automatic
control (AUTO) is selected as the
normal operating mode.
Use of air conditioning
Air conditioning is an integral part of the
climate control system, providing cooled
and dehumidified
air for occupant
comfort; the dry airflow is also effective
in preventing misting of the windows.
While the air conditioner can be
manually switched off, it is recommended
that it is used in all climatic conditions
throughout the year, preferably in AUTO
mode.
Close all windows and the sunroof when
the air conditioning is on to ensure
satisfactory operation.
Use of air recirculation
The air conditioner/heater system is
supplied with fresh air via an intake flap.
Closing the flap causes the air inside the
vehicle to be recirculated. This helps to
prevent unpleasant odours from being
drawn into the vehicle and also to
improve the performance of the air
conditioner in very hot conditions.
However, the use of recirculated air will
cause screen misting after a short period
and should only be used as necessary.

5 - 4 Climate Control
In AUTO mode, the air intake flap is
controlled automatically. If required,
air recirculation may be manually
selected for either a short or indefinite
period.
Air Recirculation
Timed air recirculationPress the button briefly to select
timed air recirculation.
The fresh air intake is opened
and the button LED extinguished at the
end of the time out period.
Latched air re circulation
Press and hold the button for a
few seconds to select latched air
recirculation. Selection is
indicated by the scre en symbol and two
beeps.
Selecting latched air recirculation cancels
AUTO operation.
To deselect latched air recirculation,
press the recirculat ion button again,
or select AUTO.
!WARNING:
To prevent humidity build up inside
the vehicle and possible screen
misting, avoid driving with the air
conditioning system off or with
manual air recirculation selected for
prolonged periods.
General Points
To ensure the satisfactory operation of
the climate control system, note the
following points:
• Ensure that the external grille at the base of the windscreen, which
provides fresh air for the climate
control system, is kept clear of leaves,
snow or obstructions.
• A solar sensor is mounted on the centre top of the fascia, as shown
opposite ( A) . E n s u r e t h a t this sensor is
not covered.
• Temperature and humidity sensors are located behind the small grille ( B).
Do not cover or obstruct the opening.
• Air ducts under the front seats supply the rear passenger footwells (see
illustration opposite). Objects or
material placed under the seats may
block or obstruct the open ducts. • The external air intake to the air
conditioner/heater system is fitted
with a filter. Ensure that the filter is
changed at the specified service
intervals to maintain efficient
operation.
• If the air conditioning system is not used frequently, it should be run
briefly at least once each week, with a
cold setting, to prevent the seals from
drying out with subsequent
refrigerant leaks.
• Moisture removed from the air by the air conditioning unit is discharged
onto the road underneath the vehicle.
After stopping, puddles of water may
form underneath the vehicle.
Air Distribution
The illustration opposite shows the
location of the air vents within the
vehicle. The airflow from the fascia face
level vents is regulated using thumbwheel
controls and adjustable direction vanes.
Air distribution between the windscreen,
fascia and floor levels is selected
automatically when operating in AUTO
mode but can be selected manually.
