passively arm if a key is in the ignition
switch or if any protected entry is open.Battery Reconnection

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.

Garage Door Opener
Transceiver
The garage door opener transceiver is
located in the overhead console.
The transceiver can be programmed to
transmit the radio frequencies of up to
three different transmitters used to
activate garage doors, entry gates, home
lighting, security systems, or other radio
frequency operated devices.Although this section mainly describes
the procedures for the garage door
opener, it also equally applies to the
previously mentioned applications.
In some countries this feature is also
known as HomeLink
® Universal
Transceiver.
For information, or for assistance, contact
your Jaguar Retailer or the supplier by
phone or via the internet. For details
see Information and Assistance on
page 2 - 23.
!WARNING:
1. Do not use the transceiver with any garage door opener that lacks
the safety stop and reverse feature
as required by safety standards.
A garage door opener which
cannot detect an object, signalling
the door to stop and reverse, does
not meet current safety standards.
Using a garage door opener
without these features increases
risk of serious injury or death. 2. When programming the
transceiver to a garage door
opener or entry gate, make sure
that people, the vehicle and
objects are out of the way to
prevent potential harm or damage
as the gate or garage door will
activate during the programme.
3. This device may suffer from interference if operated in the
vicinity of a mobile or fixed station
transmitter. This interference is
likely to affect the hand-held
transmitter as well as the in-car
transceiver.

Before Programming
Caution: When programming a
garage door opener or entry gate that
may require you to press and re-press
the hand-held transmitter (cycle),
unplug the device during the ‘cycling’
process to prevent possible motor
failure.
It is recommended that for best results,
fit a new battery to the hand-held
transmitter of the garage door opener
(or other device) before programming.
If your garage door opener receiver
(located in the garage) is equipped with
an antenna, ensure that the antenna is
hanging straight down.
To Erase All Programming

the engine is switched off:
1. Turn the ignition switch to position ‘I’.
2. Press and hold th e two outer buttons
on the garage door opener in the
overhead console. Keep the buttons
pressed, the indicator light will
illuminate. The indicator light is part
of the middle button in the garage
door opener in the overhead console.
3. Release the buttons when the lights
begin to flash (this will take
approximately 20 seconds).
All memories in the garage door opener
have now been cleared.
Note: Do not perform this procedure
when programming the additional garage
door opener buttons.
