Park Distance Control
Caution: It remains the driver’s
responsibility to detect obstacles and
estimate the car’s distance from
them. Some overhanging objects,
barriers, thin obstructions or painted
surfaces which could possibly cause
damage to the vehicle may not be
detected by the system. Always be
vigilant when reversing.
Park distance control is always
automatically switched on when the
ignition is turned on.
Caution:
1. If, for example, you are driving into a confined space such as a
home garage, the outer sensors
will detect the side walls and after
3 seconds will switch the tone off.
However, as movement
continues, the inner sensors will
eventually detect the rear wall
and will start the tone again.
2. The sensors are not active when the gear selector is in neutral,
therefore, take care if moving the
vehicle as the tone will not be
heard.
3. Do not clean the sensors with abrasive or sharp objects. Note:
1. For reliable operation, the sensors in
the front (if fitted) and rear bumpers
should be kept free from frost, ice and
grime.
2. When using a high pressure spray the sensors should only be sprayed briefly
and at least 8 inches (20 cm) distance
from the sensors.
3. The front parking aid may sound spurious tones if it detects a frequency
tone using the same band as the
sensors.
Rear Park Distance Control
When reverse gear is selected and
ignition is on, rear park distance control
automatically provides an audible
proximity warning (to the nearest
detected obstacle) when reversing the
vehicle if obstacles are detected within
the operating range, shown in the
illustration above (between
approximately 24 inches [60 cm] ( A) and
63 inches [160 cm] ( B).

On the Road 4 - 53
When a vehicle ahead enters the same
lane or a slower vehicle is ahead in the
same lane, the vehicle speed will be
adjusted automatically until the gap to
the vehicle ahead corresponds to the
preset gap. The vehicle is now in ‘follow
mode’.The warning light in the
instrument cluster will be
illuminated,
and the message centre
will display the gap set.
The vehicle will then maintain the
constant time gap to the vehicle ahead
until:
• The vehicle ahead accelerates to a speed above the set speed.
• The vehicle ahead moves out of lane or out of view.
• The vehicle ahead slows so that ‘low speed automatic switch off’ occurs.
• A new gap distance is set.
If necessary, the vehicle brakes will be
automatically applied to slow the vehicle
to maintain the gap to the vehicle in
front. The maximum braking which is applied
by the ACC system is limited and can be
overridden by the driver applying the
brakes, if required.
Note:
Driver braking will cancel adaptive
cruise control.
If the ACC system predicts that its
maximum braking level will not be
sufficient, then an audible warning will
sound while the ACC continues to brake.
This is accompanied by a red warning
light and ‘DRIVER INTERVENE’ will be
displayed on the message centre.
The driver should take IMMEDIATE
action.
When in follow mode the vehicle will
automatically return to the set speed
when the road ahead is clear, for instance
when:
• The vehicle in front accelerates or changes lane.
• The driver changes lane to either side or enters an exit lane.
The driver should intervene if
appropriate.
Low speed automatic switch off
If the speed of the vehicle decreases
below 18 mph (30 km/h), the ACC system
will be automatically switched OFF and
the instrument warning lamp will go out. If the brakes were
being applied by the
ACC system, they will be slowly released.
This will be accompanied by an audible
warning, a red warning light and ‘DRIVER
INTERVENE’ will be displayed on the
message centre. The driver must take
control.
Overriding the set speed/follow mode
!WARNING:
Whenever the driver is overriding the
ACC by depressing the accelerator
pedal, the ACC will not automatically
apply the brakes to maintain
separation from any vehicle ahead.
The set speed and gap can be overridden
by pressing the accelerator pedal when
cruising at constant speed or in follow
mode. If the vehicle is in follow mode,
the instrument warning lamp will go out
when the ACC is overridden by the driver
using the accelera tor and ‘CRUISE
OVERRIDE’ will be displayed on the
message centre. When the accelerator is
released the ACC function will operate
again and vehicle speed will decrease to
the set speed, or a lower speed if follow
mode is active.
GAP

On the Road 4 - 55
Forward alert
Limited detection and warning of objects
ahead is provided during ACC operation
by the ACC ‘DRIVER INTERVENE’
warning.
The forward alert feature additionally
provides warnings whilst ACC is not
engaged, if an object is detected close
ahead then a warning tone and message
will be issued. The brakes will not be
applied.
This additional feature may be switched
on or off using the forward alert switch in
the lower outboard knee bolster
switchpack. When the indicator lamp in
the switch is on, forward alert is active.The sensitivity of the warning may be
changed:
• Pressing the gap decrease button
when ACC is disengaged displays and
then decreases the sensitivity of the
alert.
• Pressing the gap increase button displays and then increases the
sensitivity of the alert.
Both of these are accompanied by the
FORWARD ALERT message on
the message centre.
ACC failure
If a fault occurs during operation of the
system in cruise or follow modes,
the ACC system will switch OFF and
cannot be used until the fault is cleared.
A red warning light and the message
‘DRIVER INTERVENE’ appear briefly, and
are then replaced by an amber warning
light and the message ‘CRUISE NOT
AVAILABLE’.
If failure of the ACC or any related system
occurs at any other time an amber
warning light will be displayed
accompanied by th e message ‘CRUISE
NOT AVAILABLE’. It will not be possible
to activate the ACC system in any mode. Accumulations of dirt, snow or ice on the
on the sensor or cover may inhibit ACC
operation. Fitting of a vehicle front
protector or metallis
ed badges may also
affect ACC operation.
If this occurs in ACC cruise/follow mode,
the red warning light is displayed,
the audible alarm sounds and the
message ‘DRIVER INTERVENE’ appears
briefly. These warnings are then replaced
by the amber warning light and the
message ‘ACC SENSOR BLOCKED’ is
displayed. The system is no longer active.
Clearing the obstruction allows the
system to return to normal operation.
If the obstruction is present when ACC is
inactive, e.g. on initial starting or with the
ACC system switched off, the amber
warning light will be displayed with the
message ‘ACC SENSOR BLOCKED’.
Tyres other than those recommended
may have different sizes. This can affect
the correct operation of the ACC.

4-56 On the Road
Notes on using adaptive cruise
control
1. Adaptive cruise control operates when the gear selector lever is in
position ‘2’, ‘3’ ‘4’ ‘5’ or ‘D’.
2. When engaged, the accelerator pedal rests in the raised position.
Fully release the pedal to allow
normal ACC operation.
3. When braking is applied by the ACC
the brake pedal will move down and
up as braking is applied or removed.
The vehicle brake lights will be
switched on while braking is applied.
!WARNING:
The driver must not rest a foot under
the brake pedal, as it may become
trapped. Driving with ACC active
The system acts by regulating the speed
of the vehicle using engine control and
the brakes. Gear changes may occur in
response to decelerati
on or acceleration
whilst in ACC.
ACC is not a collision avoidance system,
however, during some situations the
system may provide the driver with an
indication that intervention is required.
An audible alarm will sound,
accompanied by a re d warning light and
the message ‘DRIVER INTERVENE’ if the
ACC detects:
• That using maximum ACC braking only is not sufficient.
• That the vehicle speed has decreased below the minimum for ACC
operation.
• A failure has occurred whilst the system is active.

7-16 Maintenance
Battery lead disconnection
Caution:
1. Under no circumstances should a battery be discon nected whilst
the ignition circuit is live,
as permanent damage to the
instrument cluster may occur.
2. Disconnect the negative lead (earth terminal) first.
Fold the luggage compartment floor panel
forwards (see page 6 - 4).
Slacken the negative lead pinch bolt and
disconnect the negative (–) battery lead.
Slacken the positive lead pinch bolt and
disconnect the positive (+) battery lead. Battery lead connection
Note:
Upon battery reconnection the
security system will be armed. Opening
any protected entry will sound the alarm.
Make sure that a key or key transmitter is
available.
Caution: Do not overtighten the
pinch bolts.
Clean the battery posts and coat the post
bases with petroleum jelly.
Connect the positive (+) lead, tighten the
pinch bolt and clip the positive terminal
cover on the battery. Connect the
negative (–) lead and tighten the pinch
bolt.
After the battery ha s been reconnected
and the ignition swit ch is turned to
position ‘II’, the message centre display,
if fitted, will initially show an erroneous
reading i.e.––––––. Thiswill remain
until after the bulb check sequence, when
the correct recorded mileage will be
displayed. This is a normal function of the
instrument cluster.
After battery reconnection
After reconnecting the battery:
• Reset the electric parkbrake; refer to Parkbrake on page 4 - 34. • Reset the electrically operated
windows anti-trap function; refer to
Window Anti-trap Protection on
page 4 - 30.
• The trip computer will lose all recorded trip data and all trip
functions will be reset to zero.
The vehicle total odometer reading is
retained.
• If the battery is disconnected for more than 72 hours the radio preset
channels will need to be reset.
• Where fitted, the TV preset channels may need to be reset. Refer to the
Jaguar Touch-screen Handbook.
• Reset the clock to the correct time.
The engine electronic control system
adapts to certain characteristics of the
vehicle. These adaptations are lost if the
battery is disconnected.
On reconnection, therefore, some slightly
abnormal drive symptoms may occur and
the vehicle may need to be driven
10 miles (16 kilometres) or more while
the control system re-adapts.
