Fuel and Refuelling
Before refuelling, switch off the ignition
and remove the key.
Note:Do not leave the ignition key in the
vehicle; vehicles have been stolen from
garage service/filling stations whilst the
driver is absent from the vehicle. It is
recommended that the vehicle is locked,
if left unattended.
Caution: No additives of any kind
(fuel or oil) must be put into the fuel
tank. Additives could reduce engine
life or affect exhaust emissions.
!WARNING:
1. Fuel vapour is highly flammable and in confined spaces is
explosive and toxic. In the event
of inadvertent spillage, and before
refuelling, always switch OFF the
engine. Do not use exposed flame
or light. Do not smoke. Do not
inhale fumes.
2. Do not fill the tank so that fuel is visible in the fuel filler intake
tube. This could cause spillage
and danger from exposed fuel.
Fuel Tank Filling
Caution: Your vehicle is fitted with
catalytic converters and must only be
filled with ‘Unleaded Fuel’.
The fuel filler flap release switch is
located in the knee bolster switchpack
below the fascia. The fi ller flap is on the
right-hand side of the vehicle.
A small arrow is shown on the fuel gauge
as a reminder on which side of the
vehicle the fuel filler flap is located. Open the fuel filler flap and turn the filler
cap anti-clockwise, a ¼ turn until
resistance is felt. Continue turning to
release the cap from the filler neck.
The cap is held by a retaining strap and
can be stowed over the hook on the flap
to allow easy access to fill the tank.
A warning label on the inside of the fuel
filler flap advises type/grade of fuel.

Catalytic Converters
A few precautions on the use of vehicles
fitted with catalytic converters are
necessary. These are:
1. In order to maintain the efficiency of the emission control system it is
essential that unleaded fuel is used.
Use of leaded fuel will seriously
damage the catalytic converters.
2. Heavy impact on the converter casings must be avoided.
3. The engine settings must not be altered; they have been established to
ensure that the vehicle will comply
with stringent exhaust emission
regulations. Incorrect engine settings
could cause unusually high catalytic
converter temperatures and thus
result in damage to the converter and
vehicle. If adjustment to the settings is
considered necessary, this should be
performed by a Jaguar Retailer. 4. A correctly tuned engine optimises
exhaust emissions, performance and
fuel economy and it is recommended
that the vehicle is regularly
maintained.
5. Do not continue to operate the vehicle if any engine malfunction is evident;
malfunctions should be rectified
immediately. For instance, misfire,
loss of engine performance, excessive
oil consumption or engine run-on may
lead to unusually high catalytic
converter temperatures and may
result in damage to the converters and
vehicle.
6. The use of catalytic converters increases exhaust system
temperatures, therefore, do not
operate or park the vehicle in areas
where combustible materials such as
dry grass or leaves may come into
contact with the exhaust system. 7. Do not run the engine with either a
spark plug lead disconnected or a
spark plug removed. Do not use any
device that requires an insert into a
spark plug hole in order to generate air
pressure e.g. tyre pump, paint spray
attachment etc., as this could also
result in catalyti c converter damage.
8. The vehicle is designed for normal road use. Below are examples of abuse
which could damage the catalytic
converters and vehicle. These may
lead to a dangerous condition due to
excessively high catalytic converter
temperatures.
• Competition or off-road use.
• Excessive engine speed.
• Overloading the vehicle.
• Switching off the engine whilst in gear.
