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.

compartment, and lock all the doors.
• Park the vehicle where it can be seen. At night, park in a well-lit area.
• It is important to keep your keys in safe places at all times. Leaving them

Note:
1. The key transmitter may not operate correctly in areas which are subject to
interference from other radio
equipment operating on the same
frequency. Interference may emanate
from sources such as amateur radio,
telecommunications devices, medical
equipment, and other remote controls
or alarms. Where such interference is
experienced operate the key
transmitter as close as possible to the
vehicle, or use the key in the drivers
door lock.
2. All buttons on the key transmitter will not operate if a key is in the ignition
switch, however, if the doors, hood or
luggage compartment are open, only
button ( D) will not operate.
Each integrated key will operate all the
locks on your vehicle.
Additional integrated key transmitters
can be ordered from your Jaguar Retailer.
See Additional keys on page 2 - 7. Care of key transmitters
The key transmitters must be treated with
care. Do not expose to extremes of heat,
dust, humidity or fluids. Do not leave the
transmitter exposed to direct sunlight.
The battery is the only serviceable part.
Caution: Should a key transmitter be
lost, a new one can be obtained and
programmed to the vehicle by a
Jaguar Retailer, who will ask for proof
of vehicle ownership. It is advisable
to notify a Retailer as soon as a key
transmitter is lost or stolen and have
the remaining key transmitter(s)
reprogrammed. This will then
prevent the lost or stolen key
transmitter from being used to
disarm and unlock the vehicle.
Note:
Retailers keep a log of all enquiries
for replacement keys and notify
Jaguar Cars Ltd. of any such requests.
