Security Features
The security system has been designed
for:
• Prevention of theft of the vehicle.
• Prevention of theft of items from the vehicle.
• Personal security.
The security system is integrated with the
vehicle electronics and engine
management systems making it far more
difficult for a thief to penetrate and steal
the vehicle.
Panic Alarm (if enabled)
When in or near the vehicle, the alarm
can be set off to dete r a possible offender.
For this feature to operate, the key must
not be in the ignition switch.
Pressing the headlamp convenience/panic
button on the key transmitter three times
within three seconds will activate the
‘Panic Alarm’.
The alarm is stopped by:
• Putting the key into the ignition switch and turning to position ‘II’.
Note:
1. The key transmitter cannot be used to cancel the Panic alarm. This prevents
unauthorised cancellation in an
emergency.
2. The panic alarm is normally enabled. If required, this feature can be
disabled or enabled by a Jaguar
Retailer.
3. The vehicle locking status will not change when the panic alarm is
activated.
Passive Arming (Retailer
Option)
Passive arming wi ll not lock the
doors, it only arms the security alarm
system.
Passive arming, if enabled by a Jaguar
Retailer, will automatically arm the
vehicle alarm system 30 seconds after the
last protected entry (door, luggage
compartment) is closed following the key
being removed from th e ignition switch.
When passive arming occurs the direction
indicators will flash once and a single
tone will be heard (if enabled). The red
security light on the fascia will start to
flash and will continue for as long as the
alarm is armed.
Opening the drivers door causes a
warning sound which continues for
15 seconds before the system goes into
the full alarm state. If any other door is
opened before the drivers door,
the system goes into the full alarm state
immediately.
When the system is pa ssively armed and a
key is used to open the trunk, a seven
second warning audible ticking will
sound before the full alarm is activated.

Luggage Compartment Emergency Release
Your vehicle is equipped with a mechanical interior luggage
compartment release handle that provides a means of escape
for children and adults in the event they become locked inside
the luggage compartment.
Adults are advised to familiaris e themselves with the operation
and location of the release handle.
To open the luggage compartment lid from the inside, pull the
illuminated ‘T’ shaped handle and push up the trunk lid.
The material that the handle is made of will glow for hours in
the darkness of the luggage compartment following brief
exposure to ambient light.
!WARNING:
1. Keep vehicle doors and the luggage compartment locked and keep keys out of a child’s reach.
Unsupervised children could lock themselves in an
open trunk and risk injury. Children should be taught
not to play in vehicles.
2. On hot days, the temperature in the luggage compartment and vehicle interior can rise very
quickly. Exposure of people or animals to these high
temperatures for even a short time can cause death or
serious heat-related injuries, including brain damage.
Small children are particularly at risk.

Garage Door Opener
Transceiver
The garage door opener transceiver is
located in the overhead console.
The transceiver can be programmed to
transmit the radio frequencies of up to
three different transmitters used to
activate garage doors, entry gates, home
lighting, security systems, or other radio
frequency operated devices.Although this section mainly describes
the procedures for the garage door
opener, it also equally applies to the
previously mentioned applications.
In some countries this feature is also
known as HomeLink
® Universal
Transceiver.
For information, or for assistance, contact
your Jaguar Retailer or the supplier by
phone or via the internet. For details
see Information and Assistance on
page 2 - 23.
!WARNING:
1. Do not use the transceiver with any garage door opener that lacks
the safety stop and reverse feature
as required by safety standards.
A garage door opener which
cannot detect an object, signalling
the door to stop and reverse, does
not meet current safety standards.
Using a garage door opener
without these features increases
risk of serious injury or death. 2. When programming the
transceiver to a garage door
opener or entry gate, make sure
that people, the vehicle and
objects are out of the way to
prevent potential harm or damage
as the gate or garage door will
activate during the programme.
3. This device may suffer from interference if operated in the
vicinity of a mobile or fixed station
transmitter. This interference is
likely to affect the hand-held
transmitter as well as the in-car
transceiver.

Interior Rear View Mirror
The interior rear view mirror is of the
electrochromic type but electrochromic
operation may be switched on or off at
the mirror.
When switched on, the mirror darkens
automatically to prevent glare from a
following vehicle’s headlamps, and clears
when light levels return to normal or
when reverse gear is selected.
Electrochromic door mirrors are operated
in conjunction with the interior mirror by
the same buttons an d function in the
same manner.
Note:
1. Should a mirror assembly become detached from the windscreen, it must
be refitted by a Jaguar Retailer.
2. Ensure that the windscreen in front of the mirror is kept clean. Where fitted,
the moisture sensor for wiper
operation is located to the front of the
mirror casing. Any dirt may affect the
operation of this sensor. Electronic road toll systems
If you have an E-ZPass or other electronic
road toll transponder, it is advisable to
mount the transmitter
on the windscreen
about 1 inch (2.5 cm) from the mirror
mount and headlining and to the side of
the mirror ensuring that it does not cover
the forward-facing light sensor. This also
keeps it away from any metal which may
affect it’s operation.

need be as it can affect the calibration of
the compass.
Electrochromic operation
To switch on, press the MIRROR button.
An LED lights up to indicate that
automatic operation is selected.
Press again to switch off. Compass operation
When switched on, the compass display
on the right-hand side of the mirror
surface shows the direction the vehicle is
pointing. Eight main directions can be

Air bag fault warning light
The air bag warning light in the driver’s
instrument cluster will be lit for
approximately six seconds when the
ignition is turned on.
If the light remains on or flashes,
it indicates a fault within the air bag
electrical circuits. Report the fault to a
Jaguar Retailer immediately. It is safe to
drive the vehicle; however, in an accident
the air bags may not operate.
Air bag warning ligh t information is
shown on page 4 - 8. Air bag disposal
!WARNING:
Do not attempt to service, repair or
modify the air bag sy stem or its fuses.
All work on the air bag system,
including renewal after deployment
and renewal at the end of its service
life, must be carried out by an
authorised Jaguar Retailer.
In the event of the vehicle being
dismantled, air bag module removal and
disposal MUST be made by a qualified
person. Instructions can be obtained
from an authorised Jaguar Retailer. Front protection
With a front impact of sufficient force,
the restraints system will trigger the front
air bag(s) and seat belt pretensioners,
which immediately tighten the seat belts.
For front occupants, the seat belt then
slackens with increasing chest load,
allowing the head and chest to more
gradually come into contact with the
inflated air bag. The air bag absorbs the
remaining energy of the impact and then
deflates rapidly via vent holes.
Front air bags are designed to inflate in
frontal and near fr
ontal collisions,
not low speed impacts, roll-over, side-
impact or rear-impact.
