Health and Safety
!WARNING:
1. Many liquids and other substances used in vehicles are
poisonous and should never be
consumed and must be kept away
from open wounds.
These substances include anti-
freeze, brake fluid, fuel,
windscreen washer additives,
lubricants and various adhesives.
2. The presence of any unusual fumes (for example; petrol or
exhaust fumes) in the passenger
compartment and/or luggage
compartment should be corrected
immediately by a Jaguar Retailer.
If you must drive under these
conditions do so only with all
windows fully open.
3. By operating other electronic equipment (for example; a mobile
phone without an exterior
antenna) electro-magnetic fields
can cause malfunctions of the
vehicle electronics.
Therefore, you should observe the
instructions of the equipment
manufacturers. 4. Any modifications to the fuel
system not specifically designed
for this Jaguar are prohibited.
Such modifications in some
circumstances could result in a
fire. All service actions must be
entrusted to a Jaguar Retailer.
5. Alterations to the electrical system, including the fitting of
accessories not designed for this
Jaguar, will cause damage to the
electrical circuits and systems.
In some circumstances this could
result in a malfunction or fire.
All accessory work should be
entrusted to a Jaguar Retailer.
6. No attempt should be made to repair a fuse that has blown.
Always install a new fuse of the
correct amperage. Failure to
comply with the above may cause
a fire hazard or create serious
damage elsewhere in the
electrical circuit.
7. Avoid contact with battery acid which is poisonous and corrosive.
Acid will cause burns to the skin
as well as to the eyes. In the event
of skin or eye contamination,
wash the affected area with water
thoroughly. Seek immediate medical attention when eye
contact has occurred.
8. Do not disconnect any pipes in the air conditioning refrigeration
system. A refrigerant is used
which can cause blindness if

If refrigerant should contact the
eyes or skin, wash the eyes or
affected area with cold water for
several minutes. Do not rub.
As soon as possible thereafter,
obtain treatment from a doctor or
eye specialist.

the ignition switch and the door is closed,
the steering column and seat will return
to their previous positions. If, however,
the memorised driver position has been
changed (using the door memory switch
or another integrated key), the steering
wheel and seat will move to the new
position. Caution: Do not use steering wheel
mounted security devices since
movement of the steering wheel in

away from ‘AUTO’ whilst the steering
column is tilted away, the steering
column will move back to its

Door Mirrors
Both door mirrors are adjusted from the
driver’s door switchpack.
The four-way adjustment button (A)
moves the mirrors to the required
position. The selector switch ( B) selects
the mirror to be moved, left for the
left-hand side mirror and right for the
right-hand side mirror. When the selector
switch is in the centre position,
adjustment to either mirror is inhibited.
The mirror housings are designed to pivot
against the vehicle upon impact.
To return the mirror to its normal
position, manually re position the housing
until it locks into place.
At night, the approach lamps in the door
mirrors also switch on automatically
when reverse is selected.
Mirror heating
The door mirrors have heating elements
which work when the rear screen heater
is switched ON. The mirror heater will
clear all ice from the mirror surface.

vehicle width, this optional feature
enables the door mirrors to be folded
back. Press button (
C) to fold the mirrors
inwards and press again to return the
mirrors to their normal driving position.
Do not attempt to re position powerfold
manually. Always use the button.

If a door mirror is knocked out of position
the mirror head will be loose.
To re-engage the mechanism, power the
mirror to the foldback position, then
outwards to the drive position.
Caution: If door mirrors have been
folded against the vehicle due to an
impact:
• Reposition power foldback
mirrors using the door switches.

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.
