1 Owner Information
General Information
Whether you are new to the Jaguar
marque or have previously owned Jaguar
vehicles, we are pleased that you have
made Jaguar your choice of vehicle this
time.
For safety and the pleasure you will get
from your new vehicle, please take the
time to get well acquainted with your
vehicle by reading the handbooks.
Please note that it is essential to refer to
the XJ handbooks for complete operating
and safety information.
When left-hand or right-hand is used in
the text, this refers to the left-hand side
or right-hand side of the vehicle, viewed
from the rear.
Vehicle Handbooks
!WARNING:
Remember to pass on the Vehicle
Handbooks when reselling the
vehicle. Handbooks are integral parts
of the vehicle.

Protect the Environment
We must all play our part in protecting
the environment. Correct vehicle usage
and disposal of waste cleaning and
lubrication materials are significant steps
towards this aim.
Avoid using high engine speeds. You will
then protect your engine, reduce fuel
consumption, lower the engine noise
level and help towards reducing the
environmental burden.
Dispose of batteries, tyres, engine, brake
and coolant fluids at your local
authorised waste disposal facilities.
Window Tinting
!WARNING:
Do not have your vehicle windows
tinted with a metal oxide tinting (for
maximum heat reduction from sun
load).
Metal oxide tinting prevents the
reception of the Global Positioning
Satellite (GPS) signals by the antenna
causing the navigation system to stop
functioning.
Metal oxide tinting also prevents the
reception of the Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) signals by the antenna, causing
reduced operation of the arming/
disarming/locking/unlocking system of the
vehicle.
A non-metal tinting should be used if you
require window tinting and if in doubt,
contact your Jaguar Retailer for advice.
Window marking
It is a worthwhile precaution to have the
vehicle registration number etched into
each window glass by a Jaguar Retailer.
Mobile/Portable
Telephones
!WARNING:
Using a mobile/portable telephone
without an exterior antenna is not
recommended when driving as the
electro-magnetic fields produced can
cause malfunctions with the vehicle
electronic systems.
Check the laws and regulations on the
use of cellular telephones in the areas
where you drive. Always obey them. Also,
give full attention to driving.
Use hands-free operation (if fitted) and
pull off the road and park before making
or answering a call, if driving conditions
so require.

Key transmitter battery renewal
When the battery needs renewal there will be a significant
decrease in the effective range of the key transmitter. To renew
the battery, follow the procedure below:
• Insert a small, flat-blade, screwdriver at an angle of about 45 degrees, into the slot on th e back of the key transmitter
as shown ( A). Apply light pressure to the screwdriver and
lever the screwdriver forward to separate the two halves of
the key transmitter. Finally, pu ll the transmitter from the key
body.
• Insert the screwdriver into th e slot between the transmitter
covers adjacent to the key stowage area as shown ( B).
Apply light pressure to the screwdriver and lever the
screwdriver downward to separate the covers.
• Unscrew and remove the small screw ( C) and remove the
printed circuit board, taking care not to touch the battery
terminals. Remove the battery and dispose of it safely.
• Fit a new battery cell, type CR2032 (available from your
Jaguar Retailer), with the si de marked with the positive
symbol (+) downwards in the battery receptacle.
Avoid touching the new battery as moisture/oil from the
fingers can reduce the life of the battery and corrode the
contacts.
• Replace the printed circuit board making sure to engage the board under the securing tabs (D ), and secure with the
screw.
• Refit the cover and click into place with thumb pressure.
• Slide the transmitter back onto the key body until it clicks
into place.
