Vehicle Security
When the vehicle is unoccupied or
unattended, you are advised to do the
following:
• Apply the electronic parkbrake and move the gear selector to the
Park ‘P’ position.
• Do not leave children or pets in the vehicle unattended.
• Do not leave luggage or valuables on display.
• Remove all keys, including remote transmitters, from the vehicle prior to
locking the doors, even when the
vehicle is in your garage.
• Close all windows, hood, luggage compartment and glove
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
in conspicuous places is an invitation
for a thief to steal them and,
consequently, your vehicle or
belongings. Keep them as secure as
you would your wallet or purse, both
at home and away.

Head Restraint Adjustment
!WARNING:
Adjust the head restraint so that it is
just behind your head and never
behind your neck.
All headrests may be manually tilted,
except those fitted with rear display
screens. Rear head restraint adjustment
The rear head restraints on vehicles
without electrically operated rear seats
may be manually adjusted.
To raise the outer rear seat headrests,
pull the headrest upwards. To lower,
press the lever in the escutcheon (shown

Interior Rear View Mirror
The interior rear view mirror is of the
electrochromic type but electrochromic
operation may be switched on or off at
the mirror.
When switched on, the mirror darkens
automatically to prevent glare from a
following vehicle’s headlamps, and clears
when light levels return to normal or
when reverse gear is selected.
Electrochromic door mirrors are operated
in conjunction with the interior mirror by
the same buttons an d function in the
same manner.
Note:
1. Should a mirror assembly become detached from the windscreen, it must
be refitted by a Jaguar Retailer.
2. Ensure that the windscreen in front of the mirror is kept clean. Where fitted,
the moisture sensor for wiper
operation is located to the front of the
mirror casing. Any dirt may affect the
operation of this sensor. Electronic road toll systems
If you have an E-ZPass or other electronic
road toll transponder, it is advisable to
mount the transmitter
on the windscreen
about 1 inch (2.5 cm) from the mirror
mount and headlining and to the side of
the mirror ensuring that it does not cover
the forward-facing light sensor. This also
keeps it away from any metal which may
affect it’s operation.
Do not move the tag more often than
need be as it can affect the calibration of
the compass.
Electrochromic operation
To switch on, press the MIRROR button.
An LED lights up to indicate that
automatic operation is selected.
Press again to switch off. Compass operation
When switched on, the compass display
on the right-hand side of the mirror
surface shows the direction the vehicle is
pointing. Eight main directions can be
displayed, e.g. ‘N’ for north, ‘SW’ for
south west.
To switch on:
Press the COMP button.
Press again to switch off.

3 - 10 Before Driving
‘C’ displayed: If ‘C’ is displayed in the compass window,
the compass must be calibrated. Drive the vehicle in a circle at
less than 5 mph (8 km/h) until the display shows a direction.
The compass will be calibrated once it has tracked a complete
circle.
Incorrect direction displayed: The compass responds to
magnetic north but displays direct ions relative to true north.
The difference between magnetic north and true north varies
around the world and is separated into numbered zones as
shown on the map. The correct zone number must be entered
into the compass to show a heading relative to true north.
If the compass displays the wrong direction, it may be because
the wrong zone number has been entered or the vehicle has
moved to a different zone:
1. With the display turned on , press the COMP button for
3 seconds until the zone selection number is displayed on the
mirror compass.
2. If the incorrect zone number is displayed, repeatedly push the COMP button until the correct zone number is displayed.
3. The mirror compass will retu rn to normal compass mode
within 10 seconds of no button activity.
All display segments illuminated: If the vehicle is in the
vicinity of strong magnetic fields, e.g. electricity power lines,
the compass may show an erroneous display with all display
segments illuminated. To correct, drive the vehicle away from
the problem area and reset th e compass by switching the
ignition off and then on.

Child Safety
JAGUARCARSLTD. STRONGLY RECOMMEND
THAT AT ALL TIMES CHILDREN SHOULD BE
CARRIED IN THE REAR SEATS.
!WARNING:
Children must be restrained by a
child safety restraint that is suitable
for their weight and size.
In many countries legislation governs
how and where children should be
carried when travelling in a vehicle.
It is the responsibility of the driver to
comply with all regulations in force in the
country where the vehicle is being used. Note:
It is important to read and
understand all the information contained
in this handbook rela ting to child safety
before carrying a child in your vehicle.
!WARNING:
DO NOT install a rearward-facing
child seat in the fr ont passenger seat
position since deployment of the
passenger fascia air bag could cause
death or serious injury to the child.
This is emphasised by the label
displayed on the end of the fascia on
the front passenger side (see above). If however, you hav
e no alternative
but to place a child in the front
passenger seat, use only a forward-
facing child seat with the passenger
seat set fully rearward and in its
lowest position.
Always follow the fitting instructions
supplied with the appropriate child
restraint system.

Instruments
None of the instruments will show
correct indications until the ignition is
switched ON (position ‘II’).
If the exterior light switch is ON and the
ignition is ON, the display brightness can
be varied using the dimmer switch
(page 4 - 25).
Tachometer (A)
The tachometer indicates engine speed in
revolutions per minute and is calibrated
in increments of 250 rev/min extending
to 8000 rev/min (to 7000 rev/min for
supercharged vehicles).
Caution: Do not allow the needle to
enter the red sector.
Speedometer (B)
Speed indication is in either:
USA– Miles per hour, the outer figures,
and kilometres per hour on the inner
ring.
Canada and Mexico – Kilometres per
hour, the outer figures, and miles per
hour on the inner ring,

Warning Lights
Warning lights are arranged within the
instrument cluster.
There are two warning lights, one red,
the other amber, located above the
message centre for primary and
secondary status of the warnings
displayed by the message centre.
‘RED’ warning lights are for primary
warnings. A primary warning must be
investigated immediately by the driver or
a Jaguar Retailer.
‘AMBER’ warning lights are for secondary
warnings when the driver must take
action and then report the fault to a
Retailer at the earliest opportunity.
Other lights within the instrument cluster
indicate system status, such as blue for
main beam and green for direction
indicators, when in operation. Lamp check
A lamp check is initiated when the
ignition is switched ON and lasts for
three seconds (excepting the air bag
warning light which will remain on for
6seconds). Ifany wa
rning light remains
on after this period, investigate the cause
before driving.
Note: Not all lamps are included in the
lamp check, for example main beam
headlights or direction indicators.
Low Oil Pressure (RED)
This lights up with the ignition
switched ON and should go
out once the engine is running.
If the light remains ON once the engine
has started or comes ON whilst driving,
loss of oil pressure is indicated.
STOP the engine immediately and
investigate the cause.
Caution: Do not restart the engine
until the cause of loss of oil pressure
has been identified and rectified.
First check the engine oil level,
seepage7-6.
