4-60 On the Road
Use of Headlamps In Daylight
When visibility is poor the headlamps 
with dipped beam setting should be 
switched on so that the vehicle may be 
seen more easily by other road users. 
The instrument illumination dimmer 
control adjusts the brightness of the panel 
lighting.
Engine Oil Consumption
A certain amount of oil consumption is 
normal. The rate of consumption will 
depend on the following:
• The quality and viscosity of the oil.
• The amount of oxidation and dilution of the oil.
• Climatic conditions.
• The speed at which the engine is  being operated.
• Road conditions.
Drivers should expect above normal 
consumption when the engine is new, 
and after running-in if high speeds are 
sustained.
Winter Driving
Freeing a frozen door lock
Caution: Do not ap ply a proprietary 
lock de-icer through the keyhole.
Should the lock beco me frozen, warm the 
end of the key before use.
Windscreen wiper blades
Before driving away, clear any ice from 
the windscreen and check that the wiper 
blades are free. Switching on the heated 
screen will accelerate this process. 
The heated wiper park, if fitted, will come 
on automatically.
Frost precautions
The correct concentration of coolant 
must be maintained at all times when 
‘topping up’ or ‘refilling’ the cooling 
system.
Parking the Vehicle
When leaving the vehicle, remember the 
following:
• Whenever the vehicle is being parked,  apply the parkbrake and move the 
gear selector to Park ‘P’.
• Do not leave children or pets in the  vehicle unattended.
• Do not leave luggage or valuables on  view. Always take your valuables with 
you or lock them in the luggage 
compartment.
• Remove the ignition key and spare  keys, even when the vehicle is in your 
garage.
• When the vehicle is  unoccupied, close 
all windows and lock all doors 
securely.
• Park the vehicle where it can be seen.  At night, park in a well-lit area.
• Ensure that the keys and the key  transmitters are removed from the 
vehicle before locking the doors, 
and that all doors, the luggage 
compartment and the hood are 
closed.

Fuel and Refuelling
Before refuelling, switch off the ignition 
and remove the key.
Note:Do not leave the ignition key in the 
vehicle; vehicles have been stolen from 
garage service/filling stations whilst the 
driver is absent from the vehicle. It is 
recommended that the vehicle is locked, 
if left unattended.
Caution: No additives of any kind 
(fuel or oil) must be put into the fuel 
tank. Additives could reduce engine 
life or affect exhaust emissions.
!WARNING:
1. Fuel vapour is highly flammable  and in confined spaces is 
explosive and toxic. In the event 
of inadvertent spillage, and before 
refuelling, always switch OFF the 
engine. Do not use exposed flame 
or light. Do not smoke. Do not 
inhale fumes.
2. Do not fill the tank so that fuel is  visible in the fuel filler intake 
tube. This could cause spillage 
and danger from exposed fuel.
Fuel Tank Filling
Caution: Your vehicle is fitted with 
catalytic converters and must only be 
filled with ‘Unleaded Fuel’.
The fuel filler flap release switch is 
located in the knee bolster switchpack 
below the fascia. The fi ller flap is on the 
right-hand side of the vehicle.
A small arrow is shown on the fuel gauge 
as a reminder on which side of the 
vehicle the fuel filler flap is located. Open the fuel filler flap and turn the filler 
cap anti-clockwise, a ¼ turn until 
resistance is felt. Continue turning to 
release the cap from the filler neck. 
The cap is held by a retaining strap and 
can be stowed over the hook on the flap 
to allow easy access to fill the tank.
A warning label on the inside of the fuel 
filler flap advises type/grade of fuel.

Climate Control 5 - 7
To Switch the System On
The climate control system operates in 
position ‘II’ (run) of the ignition switch.
With the ignition key turned to the run 
position, the system will switch on in the 
operating mode last set.
For normal usage select AUTO mode.
AUTO Mode
Automatic operation provides a 
controlled environment over a 
temperature range of 61°F to 89°F (17°C 
to 31°C) and should be regarded as the 
normal operating mode.To select automatic climate 
control press the AUTO 
button; the word AUTO 
appears on the LCD screen to confirm 
selection.
Select the required temperature.
Front and rear screen  heating and timed 
air recirculation may be selected in AUTO 
mode. Selecting any other control will 
cancel AUTO operation.
Automatic operation cannot be 
deselected using the AUTO button. 
To exit AUTO mode, select another mode 
or press the blower control knob to 
switch the system off.
Temperature Selection
Separate controls allow 
the driver and front 
passenger zone 
temperatures to be independently 
adjusted. Press the red buttons to 
increase temperature and the blue 
buttons to decrease temperature.
Both driver and front passenger selected 
temperatures are always displayed.
Pressing the driver’s  buttons to select the 
maximum or minimum temperature 
settings causes the display to change 
to HI or LO respectively and cancel 
AUTO mode.
To quickly jump from HI or LO to a 
convenient midrange temperature of 73°F 
(23°C), press and hold AUTO for a few 
seconds.
Dual Temperature Zones
With the DUAL button LED 
illuminated, the system provides 
separate temperature control of 
the driver and front passenger zones.

Inertia Switch
In the event of an accident, the inertia switch may trip 
(depending on the severity an d type of impact), isolating 
operation of the fuel pump. Once the switch has tripped it must 
be reset before attempting  to restart the engine.
The inertia switch is located behind the trim on the left-hand 
side of the vehicle, forward of the front door post, below the 
fascia. A finger access hole in the trim allows the driver to reset 
the switch.
Resetting the Switch
!WARNING:
To avoid the possibility of fire or personal injury, do not 
reset the inertia switch if you see or smell fuel.
If no fuel leak is apparent, reset the inertia switch as follows:
1. Turn the ignition switch to position ‘0’.
2. Press down the red reset butt on on the top of the inertia 
switch.
3. Turn the ignition switch to position ‘II’, pause for a few  seconds, then return the key to position ‘0’.

Transporter tie-down procedure
!WARNING:
Avoid body contact with a hot 
exhaust pipe when securing the 
vehicle to the transporter.
IMPORTANT – Use straps over the 
wheels/tyres only, to secure the vehicle to 
the transporter.
Caution: Do not use the tie-down 
brackets on the vehicle rear 
underbody; these are for Jaguar 
factory use only. In time, with the 
engine switched off, the vehicle body 
will drop due to settling of the air 
suspension system and cause the tie-
down chains/straps to become slack if 
connected to these brackets.
The towing eye is not designed for 
securing the vehicle during 
transportation. Vehicle failure
The removable towing eye is primarily for 
emergency use when towing for SHORT 
DISTANCES, e.g. removing the vehicle if it 
is causing an obstruct
ion or for winching 
the vehicle onto a re covery transporter. 
To prevent damage to the automatic 
transmission whilst the vehicle is being 
towed with the rear wheels on the 
ground, towing distance must be 
restricted to 0.5 miles (0.8 kilometres). 
Towing speed must not exceed 30 mph 
(48 km/h).
Always obey towing regulations. 
In certain countries the registration 
number of the towing vehicle and an 
‘ON TOW’ sign or warning triangle must 
be displayed in a prominent position at 
the rear of the vehicle being towed. When being towed, the gear selector 
lever must be in neutral (position ‘N’) 
with the ignition key turned to 
position ‘II’ to release the steering lock 
and render the indicators, horn and 
brake lights operational.
!WARNING:
When the engine is  not running the 
steering and brakes will no longer be 
power-assisted. 
Therefore, be prepared for relatively 
heavy steering and the need for 
greatly increased brake pedal 
pressure.

Either of two headlight systems are fitted:
• Halogen headlight bulbs in  both the inner/main beam 
positions and the outer/ dipped beam positions.
• Halogen bulbs in the inner/ma in beam positions and High 
Intensity Discharge (HID) Xenon li ghts in the outer positions. 
The HID system provides dipped beam lights.
Where HID lighting is fitted, refer to your Retailer if the 
headlight fails to operate.
!WARNING:
The HID lights use a high voltage igniter system and 
should only be serviced by a Retailer.
