Security and Locks 2 - 17
Security Features
The security system has been designed
for:
• Prevention of theft of the vehicle.
• Prevention of theft of items from the vehicle.
• Personal security.
The security system is integrated with the
vehicle electronics and engine
management systems making it far more
difficult for a thief to penetrate and steal
the vehicle.
Panic Alarm (if enabled)
When in or near the vehicle, the alarm
can be set off to dete r a possible offender.
For this feature to operate, the key must
not be in the ignition switch.
Pressing the headlamp convenience/panic
button on the key transmitter three times
within three seconds will activate the
‘Panic Alarm’.
The alarm is stopped by:
• Putting the key into the ignition switch and turning to position ‘II’.
Note:
1. The key transmitter cannot be used to cancel the Panic alarm. This prevents
unauthorised cancellation in an
emergency.
2. The panic alarm is normally enabled. If required, this feature can be
disabled or enabled by a Jaguar
Retailer.
3. The vehicle locking status will not change when the panic alarm is
activated.
Passive Arming (Retailer
Option)
Passive arming wi ll not lock the
doors, it only arms the security alarm
system.
Passive arming, if enabled by a Jaguar
Retailer, will automatically arm the
vehicle alarm system 30 seconds after the
last protected entry (door, luggage
compartment) is closed following the key
being removed from th e ignition switch.
When passive arming occurs the direction
indicators will flash once and a single
tone will be heard (if enabled). The red
security light on the fascia will start to
flash and will continue for as long as the
alarm is armed.
Opening the drivers door causes a
warning sound which continues for
15 seconds before the system goes into
the full alarm state. If any other door is
opened before the drivers door,
the system goes into the full alarm state
immediately.
When the system is pa ssively armed and a
key is used to open the trunk, a seven
second warning audible ticking will
sound before the full alarm is activated.
2 - 18 Security and Locks
If the system has been passively armed it
can be disarmed by either using the key
transmitter, by switching the ignition to
position ‘II’, or by unlocking the driver’s
door with the key.
Note:The security system will not
passively arm if a key is in the ignition
switch or if any protected entry is open.Battery Reconnection
If the battery has been disconnected and
is subsequently reconnected, the alarm
system will resume the same state as
before the battery was disconnected.
If the alarm was sounding when the
battery was disconnected, it will sound
again when the battery is reconnected
and will need:
• The transmitter un lock button to be
pressed
• Or a key placed in the ignition switch and turned to position ‘II’
• Or the driver’s door to be unlocked with a key
to disarm the vehicle.
Battery Back-up Sounder
(Retailer Option)
A self-contained, battery back-up
sounder can be fitted. This device will
sound the full alarm if the vehicle alarm is
activated, or if the ve hicle battery or the
sounder is disconnected when the
security system is armed.

Luggage Compartment Emergency Release
Your vehicle is equipped with a mechanical interior luggage
compartment release handle that provides a means of escape
for children and adults in the event they become locked inside
the luggage compartment.
Adults are advised to familiaris e themselves with the operation
and location of the release handle.
To open the luggage compartment lid from the inside, pull the
illuminated ‘T’ shaped handle and push up the trunk lid.
The material that the handle is made of will glow for hours in
the darkness of the luggage compartment following brief
exposure to ambient light.
!WARNING:
1. Keep vehicle doors and the luggage compartment locked and keep keys out of a child’s reach.
Unsupervised children could lock themselves in an
open trunk and risk injury. Children should be taught
not to play in vehicles.
2. On hot days, the temperature in the luggage compartment and vehicle interior can rise very
quickly. Exposure of people or animals to these high
temperatures for even a short time can cause death or
serious heat-related injuries, including brain damage.
Small children are particularly at risk.

and the driver’s door is opened or if the
ignition key is removed, the steering
column will move to the uppermost tilt
position. The seat will move rearwards
unless it is already 1.5 inches (4 cm) or
less from its fully rearward position when
it will not move any further back.
Entry – When the key is next inserted in
the ignition switch and the door is closed,
the steering column and seat will return
to their previous positions. If, however,
the memorised driver position has been
changed (using the door memory switch
or another integrated key), the steering
wheel and seat will move to the new
position. Caution: Do not use steering wheel
mounted security devices since
movement of the steering wheel in
entry/exit mode could result in
vehicle damage (e.g. the windscreen)
or possible injury to the occupant.
Note:
1. If the adjustment switch is moved
away from ‘AUTO’ whilst the steering
column is tilted away, the steering
column will move back to its
memorised position when the key is
next inserted in the ignition and
entry/exit mode is then cancelled.
2. If the adjustment switch is moved during entry/exit operation, steering
column movement will stop.
