Limp-home mode
In the unlikely event of an electrical or
mechanical failure, transmission
operation will be impaired. The vehicle
gear selector ranges P, R, N, D can still be
used to enable the vehicle to be driven to
a safe area. In this event consult a Jaguar
Retailer immediately.
!WARNING:
The driver should be aware that the
vehicle’s performance will be
reduced and must take this into
account when driving.
Sport Mode
The switch marked ‘S ’ on the ‘J’-gate
surround enables the driver to select
either normal or sport (S) modes.
When sport mode is selected the
automatic transmission will operate
normally, but the ge arshift points are
extended to make full use of the engine’s
power reserves.
To select ‘Sport’, press the switch. A red
light within the switch is illuminated to
indicate that sport mode has been
selected.
To cancel ‘Sport’, press the switch again. Note:
Both sides of the ‘J’-gate can be
used irrespective of the transmission
mode, e.g. with ‘S’ selected the
transmission can be operated in full
automatic or by manual selection.
In addition to norm al and sport modes,
the transmission control computer will
select shift patterns to suit specific
conditions.
Cruise Control – When cruise control is
operating at set speed the transmission
selects a shift pattern to suit cruise
control operation.
DSC – When DSC is switched ON and the
system is activated, the transmission
selects a shift pattern to suit traction
control conditions.
Gradients – When the vehicle is being
driven on roads with uphill gradients,
the transmission adapts the shift pattern
to make better use of engine power and
aid engine cooling.
Note: Under the conditions described,
the relevant transmission mode will
override the normal or sport modes
selected by the driver.
When such conditions no longer exist,
the transmission will revert to the shift
pattern previously selected by the driver,
that is, normal or sport.
