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
allowed to contact the eyes.
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.
9. When working within the engine compartment, take care to avoid
contact with moving parts and hot
components.
10. California Proposition 65: Engine exhaust, some of it’s
constituents, and certain vehicle

2 - 4 Security and Locks
Vehicle Security
When the vehicle is unoccupied or
unattended, you are advised to do the
following:
• Apply the electronic parkbrake and move the gear selector to the
Park ‘P’ position.
• Do not leave children or pets in the vehicle unattended.
• Do not leave luggage or valuables on display.
• Remove all keys, including remote transmitters, from the vehicle prior to
locking the doors, even when the
vehicle is in your garage.
• Close all windows, hood, luggage compartment and glove
compartment, and lock all the doors.
• Park the vehicle where it can be seen. At night, park in a well-lit area.
• It is important to keep your keys in safe places at all times. Leaving them
in conspicuous places is an invitation
for a thief to steal them and,
consequently, your vehicle or
belongings. Keep them as secure as
you would your wallet or purse, both
at home and away.
Key Transmitter
The security system is controlled
remotely by a radio frequency, battery-
operated, integrated transmitter key.
The transmitter is ac tivated by pressing
one of the operating buttons.
( A ) – Unlocks and disarms the vehicle.
( B ) – Releases the luggage compartment
lock.
( C ) – Activates the convenience headlamp
feature and sounds the panic alarm.

Security and Locks 2 - 5
Note:
1. The key transmitter may not operate correctly in areas which are subject to
interference from other radio
equipment operating on the same
frequency. Interference may emanate
from sources such as amateur radio,
telecommunications devices, medical
equipment, and other remote controls
or alarms. Where such interference is
experienced operate the key
transmitter as close as possible to the
vehicle, or use the key in the drivers
door lock.
2. All buttons on the key transmitter will not operate if a key is in the ignition
switch, however, if the doors, hood or
luggage compartment are open, only
button ( D) will not operate.
Each integrated key will operate all the
locks on your vehicle.
Additional integrated key transmitters
can be ordered from your Jaguar Retailer.
See Additional keys on page 2 - 7. Care of key transmitters
The key transmitters must be treated with
care. Do not expose to extremes of heat,
dust, humidity or fluids. Do not leave the
transmitter exposed to direct sunlight.
The battery is the only serviceable part.
Caution: Should a key transmitter be
lost, a new one can be obtained and
programmed to the vehicle by a
Jaguar Retailer, who will ask for proof
of vehicle ownership. It is advisable
to notify a Retailer as soon as a key
transmitter is lost or stolen and have
the remaining key transmitter(s)
reprogrammed. This will then
prevent the lost or stolen key
transmitter from being used to
disarm and unlock the vehicle.
Note:
Retailers keep a log of all enquiries
for replacement keys and notify
Jaguar Cars Ltd. of any such requests.

2. If the vehicle alarm system is armed and the luggage compartment is
opened using the key transmitter,
the alarm will not sound. The system
will be rearmed when the lid is closed,
provided the vehicle has not been
disarmed.
3. Neither the luggage compartment lid release switch on the fascia
switchpack nor the lid release button
will operate when the vehicle is
armed, or in valet mode. An attempt
to operate these switches whilst in
valet mode will result in an audible
warning chime.
4. Operating the inte rnal, external or
remote luggage compartment switches
more than 15 times within
20 seconds, or opening and closing
the luggage compartment will cause
opening to be inhibited for
20 seconds. Should this happen wait
20 seconds for normal operation to
resume. If required, the luggage
compartment may be opened by using
the key during the 20 second waiting
period.Alarms and Audible
Signals
Note: In certain markets, legislation
prohibits the use of audible confirmation
signals. In such cases, the sound source
has been removed from the system.
Audible Signals
Two audible signals will be heard
(if enabled) if an atte mpt is made to lock
the vehicle with a key in the drivers door
lock or the lock button is pressed on the
key transmitter if a door, the hood or the
luggage compartment is not fully closed
or, a key is in the ignition switch.
If the vehicle is unlocked with a key when
it is armed, the vehicle will disarm,
the direction indicators will flash twice
and two audible tones will be heard
(if enabled).
The full alarm will activate, as previously
described, unless the security system is
disarmed, either by pressing the unlock
button on the key tr ansmitter, or by
placing a key into the ignition switch and
turning the key to position ‘II’.
Full Alarm
Once armed, any of the following
circumstances will create a full alarm
state, sound the horns, sound the siren,
or a combination of both (as regional
legislation dictates) and flash the
direction indicators:
• Opening a door, luggage compartment lid (except with
transmitter) or hood.
• Movement in the passenger area (if intrusion sensors are fitted).
• Using a key in the ignition switch which is not programmed to the
vehicle.
• One press of the headlamp convenience button will switch on the
headlamps for 25 seconds or until the

can be disarmed by either using the key
transmitter, by switching the ignition to
position ‘II’, or by unlocking the driver’s
door with the key.
Note:The security system will not
passively arm if a key is in the ignition
switch or if any protected entry is open.Battery Reconnection
If the battery has been disconnected and
is subsequently reconnected, the alarm
system will resume the same state as
before the battery was disconnected.
If the alarm was sounding when the
battery was disconnected, it will sound
again when the battery is reconnected
and will need:
• The transmitter un lock button to be
pressed
• Or a key placed in the ignition switch and turned to position ‘II’
• Or the driver’s door to be unlocked with a key
to disarm the vehicle.
Battery Back-up Sounder
(Retailer Option)

Before Programming
Caution: When programming a
garage door opener or entry gate that
may require you to press and re-press
the hand-held transmitter (cycle),
unplug the device during the ‘cycling’
process to prevent possible motor
failure.
It is recommended that for best results,
fit a new battery to the hand-held
transmitter of the garage door opener
(or other device) before programming.
If your garage door opener receiver
(located in the garage) is equipped with
an antenna, ensure that the antenna is
hanging straight down.
To Erase All Programming
For first time progra mming, ensure that
the engine is switched off:
1. Turn the ignition switch to position ‘I’.
2. Press and hold th e two outer buttons
on the garage door opener in the
overhead console. Keep the buttons
pressed, the indicator light will
illuminate. The indicator light is part
of the middle button in the garage
door opener in the overhead console.
3. Release the buttons when the lights
begin to flash (this will take
approximately 20 seconds).
All memories in the garage door opener
have now been cleared.
Note: Do not perform this procedure
when programming the additional garage
door opener buttons.
Programming the Vehicle
Ensuring that the engine is switched off:
1. Turn the ignition switch to position ‘I’.
2. Hold the end of the original garage door opener hand -held transmitter
approximately 2 to 6 inches (5 cm to
15 cm) away from the transceiver in
the overhead console, keeping the
indicator light in view.

Before Driving 3 - 13
Inertia reel mechanism check
Static test: Whilst seated, fasten the seat
belt and grip the shoulder belt at
approximately shoulder level with the
opposite hand. Pull the belt sharply
downwards, the belt should lock.
Road test: The following road test must
be carried out only under maximum safe
road conditions.
With the seat belt correctly fitted to the
driver and passenger(s), drive the vehicle
at 5 mph (8 km/h) and, ensuring that it is
safe to do so, brake sharply.
The seat belt(s) should lock automatically,
holding both driver and passenger(s)
securely in position.
It is important when braking that the
reactions of both driver and passenger(s)
are normal, that is, the body must not be
thrown forward in anticipation, thus
causing a snatching action of the belt
which would operate the locking
mechanism.
If the belt fails to lock on either test,
consult a Jaguar Retailer.
!WARNING:
1. Seat belts are designed to bear upon the bony structure of the
body. The lap section of the belt
must be worn low across the front
of the pelvis and NOT across the
abdominal area. Always ensure
that the webbing is midway
between the neck and the edge of
the shoulder.
2. Care should be taken to avoid contamination of the webbing
with polishes, oils and chemicals,
and particularly battery acid.
Cleaning may safely be carried out
using mild soap and water.
If webbing becomes frayed,
contaminated or damaged,
discard it and fit a new seat belt.
3. It is essential to renew the entire assembly after it has been worn in
a severe impact even if damage to
the assembly is not obvious. 4. Belts should not be worn with the
webbing twisted.
5. Each seat belt assembly must only be used by one occupant; it is
dangerous to put a seat belt
around a child being carried on
the occupant’s lap.
6. No modifications or additions s h o u l d b e m a d e b y t h e u s e r w h i c h
will prevent the seat belt adjusting
devices from operating.
7. Should the seat belt not retract and remain at its static length,
consult your nearest Jaguar
Retailer immediately.

reminders to the driver that the driver’s
and/or front passenger’s seat belt is
unbuckled by intermittently sounding a
chime and illuminating the seat belt
warning light in the instrument cluster. If the vehicle is moving above 10 mph
(16 km/h) and one or both front seats are
occupied and a seat belt is not fastened,
a warning chime will be heard and the
light will flash.
The chime sound and the light flashing
will last for 10 seconds and then repeat
every 30 seconds for five minutes or until
the belts are fastened or the vehicle
stops.
If the warning light stays ON steady with
the seat belt(s) fastened, report the fault
to a Jaguar Retailer. It is safe to drive the
vehicle with the light ON steady,
provided that the seat belt(s) is properly
fastened. Ensure that all occupants seat
belts are fastened before driving.
