15.2 INSTRUMENTS
15.2.1 General Description
The instruments measure, monitor and display data relevant to the vehicle’s performance. Data is received from
sensors positioned at various locations around the vehicle via two multi-pin sockets located at the rear of the
instrument panel and is than presented using three different visual display methods described as follows:
15.2.2 Analog Display
This is used to display road speed, engine speed, oil pressure, battery condition, fuel level and coolant temperature.
15.2.3 Indicator Lamps
These indicate the presence of any hazard /fault conditions or operational actions.
15.2.4 LCD (Liquid Crystal Disp/ay)
This single line, six digit seven segment display is normally used to display the odometer reading but can also be used
to display vehicle condition messages associated with particular warning lamps and trip computer information.
15.2.5 Transducers
These devices listed as follows transmit vehicle condition to the instruments:
0 Engine Coolant Temperature Transmitter
0 Low Coolant Level Probe
0 Oil Pressure Transmitter - AJ16N12
0 Fuel Gauge Tank Unit - AJlW12
Fault conditions and their causes displayed by the instruments and warning lamps are covered in more detail
by further information contained within the
Electrical Diagnostic Manual.

15.5.8 wific Gravity Test
The specific gravity of the electrolyte determines the level of the float in the liquid. With the float in a high position
the specific gravity is high and when the specific gravity is low the float sinks to the lower position.
Using
a hydrometer the specific gravity readings are taken when the liquid level crosses the scale on float. This should
give a accurate indication of the state charge of the battery.
The volume and the specific gravity of the electrolyte varies with the change in temperature.
15.5.9 Electrolyte Temperature Correctkm
For every 10- below 15% subtract 0.007 from the hydrometer reading, and for every 10°C above 15OC add 0.007 to
the hydrometer reading.
Note: Use only distilled water for topping up electrolyte. The electrolyte must not exceed 51.66OC during charging.
If after 30 minutes charging the battery current is not equal or greater than 3A, dispose of the battery.
15.5.10 Heahh and Sakty Precautions
As batteries contain sulphuric acid and explosive mixtures of hydrogen and oxygen gases, it is strongly recommended
that protective clothing is worn.
Avoid spilling acid to prevent damage to clothing and skin bums.
If accidentalty spilled or splashed on clothing or skin, rinse with cold water. As a neutralizer, a solution of baking soda
or ammonia and water may be used.
In the event of skin or eye contact rinse the affected areas with water and should this not
be sufficient seek medical
attention.
Any trace of acid spilled or splashed on the vehicle should be rinsed with clean water.
BEFORE AND WHILST WORKING WITH THE BATTERY BE AWARE OF THE FOLLOWING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
o particularly during charging, highly explosive hydrogen is emitted.
0 do not smoke when working near the battery.
o avoid sparks, short circuits or other sources of ignition.
o switch off current before connecting or disconnecting any electrical terminals.
o always disconnect battery ground lead first and reconnect last.
o ensure battery is charged in a well ventilated area.
o switch off the charger before disconnecting.
WARNING: WHEN PREPARING ELECTROLYTE OF A DESIRED SPECIFIC GRAVITY, ALWAYS POUR THE
CONCENTRATED ACID SLOWLY INTO THE WATER AND NOT WATER INTO THE ACID.
HEAT IS GENERATED WHEN MIXING ACID WITH WATER, HENCE ADD SMALL AMOUNTS OF ACID AND
STIR SLOWLY INTO THE WATER. ALLOW TO COOL IF NOTICEABLE HEAT DEVELOPS. EXCEPT FOR LEAD
DO NOT STORE ACID
IN EXCESSIVELY WARM LOCATIONS OR DIRECT SUN LIGHT.FUEL VAPOUR IS EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE, HENCE GREAT CARE MUST BE TAKEN WHILST WORKING ON THE FUEL
SYSTEM. LINED
CONTAINERS, ALWAYS USE NON
- METALLIC CONTAINERS AND / OR FUNNELS.

used.
WARNING: FUME EXTRACTION EQUIPMENT MUST BE IN OPERATION WHEN SOLVENTS ARE USED E.G.
TRICHLOROETHANE, WHITE SPIRIT, SBPB, METHYLENE CHLORIDE, PERCHLORETHYLENE.
DO NOT SMOKE IN THE VICINITY OF VOLATILE DEGREASING AGENTS.
Adhere strictly to handling and safety instructions given on containers and labels. Keep oils and solvents away from
naked flames and other sources of ignition. Do not apply heat in an attempt to free seized nuts or fittings; as well as
causing damage to protective coatings, there is
a risk of damage from stray heat to electronic equipment and brake
lines. Do not leave tools, equipment, spilt oil etc. around or on work
area. Wear protective overalls and use barrier
cream when necessary.
0 A3.1.1 Used Engine Oils
Prolonged and repeated contact with mineral oil will result in the removal of natural oils from the skin, leading to dry- ness, irritation and dermatitis. In addition, used engine oil contains potentially harmful contaminants which may cause
skin cancer. Washing facilities and adequate means of skin protection should be provided.
A3.1.2 Health Protection Precautions
0 Avoid prolonged and repeated contact with oil; particularly used engine oils.
o Wear protective clothing, including impervious gloves where practicable
0 Do not put oily rags in pockets.
0 Avoid contaminating clothes, particularly underwear, with oil.
0 Overalls must be cleaned regularly. Discard unwashable clothing and footwear which is oil impregnated.
o First Aid treatment should be obtained immediately for open cuts or wounds.
0 Use barrier creams, applying before each work period, to enable easier removal of dirty oil / grease from the
skin.
0 Wash with soap and water to ensure that all oil is removed (skin cleaner and a nail brush will help). The use of
preparations containing lanolin will help to replace the natural skin oils which have been removed.
o Do not use petrol, kerosene, gas oil, thinners or solvents for washing skin.
0 If skin disorders develop, obtain medical advice immediately.
0 Where practicable, degrease components prior to handling.
0 Where there is a risk of fluids coming into contact with the eyes, eye protection should be worn, for example,
goggles or a face shield. An eye wash facility should be provided.
A3.1.3 Environmental Protection Precautions
A3.1 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Whenever possible, use a ramp or pit whilst working beneath a car, in preference to jacking. Position chocks at the
wheels as well as applying the handbrake. Never rely on a jack alone to support a car. Use axle stands, or blocks care- fully placed at the jacking points, to provide a rigid location. Checkthat any lifting equipment used has adequate capac- ity and is fully serviceable. Ensure that a suitable form of fire extinguisher is conveniently located.
When using
electrical tools and equipment, inspect the power lead for damage and check that it is properly earthed. Disconnect
the earth (grounded) terminal of the car battery. Do not disconnect any pipes of the air conditioning refrigeration sys-
tem unless you are trained and instructed to do so. A refrigerant is used which can cause blindness if allowed to come
into contact with the eyes. Ensure that adequate ventilation is provided when volatile degreasing agents are being
It is illegal to pour used oil on to the ground, down sewers or drains, or into water courses. The burning of used engine
oil in small space heaters or boilers is not recommended unless emission control equipment is fitted. Dispose of used
oil through authorized waste disposal contractors, to licensed waste disposal sites or to the waste oil reclamation trade.
If in doubt, contact the Local Authority for advice on disposal facilities.

Body Systems & Body Repair
A4.1.5 GENERAL REPAIR NOTES
The following advice should be noted before ANY repair work is carried out.
0 Disconnect the vehicle battery ground lead (disconnect the alternator where electric welding is used) and take
note of the reconnection procedures as detailed in Section 15.
0 Where structural parts are straightened or renewed, a body alignment / straightening jig must be used.
0 Where appropriate, structural sections should be straightened by cold processes. Heat, especially excessive
heat, will reduce the strength of steels.
0 Repairs may only be carried out successfully, and any warranties protected, if genuine Jaguar replacement parts
and Jaguar approved materials are used.
0 Tools, procedures and facilities must be right for the job. Do not compromise the quality of the work by using
inappropriate methods.
0 All trim and electrical components in the locality of the repair must be removed or disconnected prior to panel
removal / replacement; this is especially important where hollow sections may contain harnesses, tubes or
foam, see section
A4.3.5.
0 The welding and gas processes detailed in the following sections are the only ones recommended by Jaguar
Cars Ltd.
0 Ensure that you have read and understood the safety related procedures in this and other relevant sections.
WARNING: DO NOT WORK
IN THE VICINITY OF A LIVE AIR BAG, REMOVE IT COMPLETELY. READ WORKING PRAC- TICES AIR BAG, SECTION 15. ANY SEAT BELT WHICH HAS BEEN WORN IN AN ACCIDENT MUST BE RENEWED. PLEASE SEE SECTION
AGE LOCATIONS. 13 FOR IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING 'TEAR LOOP' SEAT BELTS / BUCKLES AND ANCHOR-
CAUTION: Electric arc welding should not be used on Jaguar vehicles. The high vottages produced by this process will cause irreparable damage to the electrical control and microprocessor systems.
A4.1.5.1 Welding and Gas Processes Special Notes
Resistance spot welding, MIG welding and all gas processes may only be carried out on bare, unpainted or unplated,
metal.
The flanges of panels which are to be welded together must be clean, corrosion free and treated as appropriate,
with either weld-through primer or inter-weld sealer; use only materials and processes in accordance with the 'Body Seal-
ing and Preservation Manual' and relevant application areas in section A4.3.1.1.
See 'Zinc Coated Panels' section A4.2.
Generally, the resistance spot welding equipment used in the motor vehicle repair industry does not produce a weld
of equivalent strength to that of the manufacturer. Therefore, the expression 'single row of resistance spot welds'
means that the spots should be spaced on a pitch of
19mm to 25mm. This will usually result in more spot welds than
found in the original factory joint.
To remove resistance spot welds, a resistance spot weld cutter should be used.
If the new joint is to be MIG plug welded, the old resistance spot welds should be cut from the panel which is to be
retained and those holes used for plug welding.
Suitable holes may also be drilled or punched;
8,O mm dia for sections up to 1,6 mm, and 10,O mm dia for thicker sec- tions.
