13.4 TRUNK
13.4.1 Trunk, Description
The trunk houses the spare wheel, the battery, an electrical carrier containing electrical fuses, relays and modules and
a compact disc auto-changer attached to body bracketry. The trunk is fitted with push-fit, velour finish, liners (1 Fig. 1) to the sides and front inner panel; the trunk floor is covered with carpet attached to a removable floor board (2 Fig. 1) and a battery cover (3 Fig. I), one covering the spare wheel and wheel changing equipment, the other covering the
battery and electrical carrier.
The floor board rests on the spare wheel, the front and rear edges
of the floor board locating in blocks on the fuel tank
backboard and on the rear of the body. The blocks accommodate the two possible height settings caused by the differ- ence in thickness between the space saver and full sized spare wheels.
A tread plate (4 Fig. 1) is attached to the trunk sill and a liner is fitted to the rear of the trunk below the sill. Interior trim finisher panels are fitted to the rear lamp units accessed from the trunk opening.
The trunk lid
(5 Fig. 1) is fitted with a removable moulded liner and two trunk illumination lights; the lid is supported by two gas struts, attached through press-on fittings between the inner wheel arch and trunk hinge (6 Fig. 1). A warning
triangle is attached by a bracket to the trunk lid and retained in the open position by a rubber block (Europe inc UK only).
Trunk locking is based on a central latch and striker, operated electrically through the central locking system
by an ad- jacent actuator or by key in a barrel lock located behind the trunk lid badge.
For details on renewal
of trunk front and side liners, trunk carpet, trunk seal retainer and battery cover, see relevant
Service Repair Operations.

13.8.10 Tear loop Seat Belts, Description
The tear loop seat belt (Fig.1) is used to control the rate of forward travel of the occupant towards the deployed airbag
(the airbag is covered in Section 15, Electrical). The tear loop assembly is designed to release additional webbing when
the stitching, which retains the webbing loops, breaks under
a predetermined load. The wires (1 Fig. 1) within the as- sembly have the following functions:
0 To protect the stitching from 'normal' loads such as heavy braking or cornering.
o To control the rate of deployment.
0 To support the extended head following deployment.
When the passenger unit has been activated, the buckle will extend from the shroud and reveal
a warning label (2 Fig. 1); the extent of deployment will depend upon the severity of the load.
-: IF THE LABEL IS VISIBLE AT ALL (3 FIG. 3). THE COMPLETE ASSEMBLY MUST BE RENEWED, AS MUST
ANY SEAT BELT WHICH HAS BEEN WORN IN AN ACCIDENT.

14.13 SYSTEM CHECKING WITH MANIFOLD GAUGE Sm
14.13.1 Evacuating the Manifold Gauge Set
Attach the centre (service) hose to a vacuum pump and start the pump. Open fully both high anddow valves and allow
the vacuum to remove air and moisture from the manifold set for at least five minutes.
Turn the vacuum pump off and isolate it from the centre service hose but do not open the hose to atmosphere.
CAUTION: It is imperative that the vacuum pump is not subjected to a positive pressure of any degree. Therefore
the pump must be frtted with an isolation valve at the centre (service hose) connection and this valve
must be closed before the pump is switched off. This operation replaces the 'purge' procedure used on
previous systems. Observe the manufacturefs recommendation with regard to vacuum pump oil
changes.
14.13.2 Connecting the Manifold Gauge Set
CAUTION: Only use hoses with connectors which are dedicated to HFC 134A charge ports.
Attachment of the hose quick release connectors to the high and low side system ports is straightfotward, provided
that the high and low valves are closed and the system is NOT operational.
Assessment of system operating efficiency and fault classification may be achieved by using the facilities on your
Re- covery / Recharging / Recycling station, follow the manufacturers instructions implicitly and observe all safety con- siderations.
WARNING: UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD THE CONNECTIONS BE MADE WITH THE SYSTEM IN
OPERATION OR THE VALVES OPEN. SHOULD THE VALVES BE OPEN AND A VACUUM PUMP OR
REFRIGERANT CONTAINER ATTACHED, AN EXPLOSION COULD OCCUR AS A RESULT OF HIGH
PRESSURE REFRIGERANT BEING FORCED BACK INTO THE VACUUM PUMP
OR CONTAINER.
14.13.3 Stabilizing the System
Accurate test gauge data will only be attained if the system temperatures and pressures are stabilized.
Ensure that equipment and hoses cannot come into contact with engine moving parts or sources of heat.
It is recommended that a free standing air mover is placed in front of the vehicle to provide air flow through the con- denser / cooling system, see illustration below.
Start the engine, allow
it to attain normal working temperature and set at fast idle (typically 1200 to 1500 rpm). Select full air conditioning performance.
With all temperatures and pressures stable, or displaying symptoms of faults; begin relevant test procedures.

15.1.2 Handling Undeployed Modules
The electrically-activated airbag module contains sodium azide and sodium nitrate which are poisonous and
extremely flammable substances.
Their contact with acid, water or heavy metals may produce harmful and irritating gases or combustible compounds.
The airbag module is
non-serviceable and must not be dismantled, punctured, incinerated or welded.
WARNING: DO NOT ATTEMPT ANY REPAIRS TO THE AIRBAG MODULE.
Never measure the resistance of the airbag module, as this may cause the airbag to deploy. Suspect modules must be returned to Jaguar Cars Ltd. or their importer for replacement.
Tampering or mishandling can result in personal injury.
Keep away from heat, sparks and open flames. Do not store
at temperatures exceeding 93O Celsius (200OF).
Keep away from electrical equipment as electrical contact may cause ignition.
Do not drop or impact airbag module.
Always position module 'cover
-up'.
Ensure that the connector is protected to prevent damage.
J76-1058
Fig. 1 The Driver-side Airbag
Store modules in a secure lockable cabinet.
Never position projectile material over the undeployed airbag as this can cause injury in the event of inadvertent
deployment.

Do not wrap arms around module when carrying and always carry module with cover and ventsfacing awayfrom body
to avoid personal injury in the event of inadvertent deployment.
Never carry airbag module by wires or the connector.
The chemical propellant mixture deploying the airbag is
a solid and therefore inhalation exposure is unlikely even if module is ruptured without deployment.
As far as practicable, avoid skin contact with, or ingestion of, the materials present after combustion. Exposure to high
concentrations of propellant mixture may cause headache, nausea, blurred vision, faintness, cyanosis, lowering of
blood pressure, tachycardia and shortness of breath.
WARNING:SODlUM AZlDE HAS BEEN LISTED AS AN 'EXTRAORDINARY HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCE OR
CARCINOGEN BY THE STATE OF MASSACHUSETTS, USA. SODIUM AZlDE HAS BEEN LISTED ON THE 'RIGHT TO KNOW HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCE LIST' BY THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY AND IS ALSO
REGARDED AS A 'SPECIAL HEALTH HAZARD SUBSTANCE BY THE STATE. THE PROPELLANT MIXTURE IS SENSITIVE TO PREMATURE IGNITION BY ELECTRICAL SOURCES IF NOT PROPERLY PROTECTED AND
ISOLATED.
15.1.3 Emergency First Aid Procedures
If the airbag is ruptured without deployment and exposure to the propellant mixture occurs, observe the following
first-aid treatments:
0 Ingestion - Do not induce vomiting and seek prompt medical attention.
0 Skin contact- Immediately wash skin with soap and water and seek medical attention.
0 Eyes - Immediately flush eyes with water for at least 20 minutes and seek prompt medical attention.
0 Inhalation - Immediately move victim to fresh air and seek medical attention.
0 Physical trauma, eg burns, abrasions, or impact due to premature ignition or deployment of the inflator
assembly - Treat symptomatically and seek prompt medical attention.
0
15.1.4
See 'Emergency First Aid Procedures' above.
Prevent contact of the inflator with liquids, combustibles and flammable materials. Failure to followthese instructions
could result in chemical burns and personal injury.
Ensure modules are cool before handling.
After deployment the airbag surface contains small deposits of sodium hydroxide which can cause irritation to the skin
and eyes.
When handling deployed airbags, always wear rubber gloves to
BS 1651 grade 2 or equivalent, and chemical resistant
goggles to BS 2092 grade 2 or equivalent.
After handling deployed airbags, immediately wash hands and exposed skin surface areas with mild soap and water.
Sakty Procedures For Handling Depbyed (Fid) Modules
15.1.5 Safety Procedures For Handling Undeployed Damaged Modules
The material inside the module is hermetically sealed and is completely consumed during deployment.
No attempt should be made to open the module
as this leads to a risk of exposure to sodium azide.
In the unlikely event of
a gas generator being damaged, it must be examined by trained personnel before any attempt
is made to remove and/or deploy.
Full protective clothing must be worn when dealing with any spillage.
Ruptured units must be stored away from acids, halogens, heavy metals and metal salts. Damaged units may produce
hydrazoic acid if exposed to liquids.
Failure to comply with these instructions may result in fire, noxious fumes and severe personal injury or death.
