Before Driving 3 - 5
Heated Seats
Some seats have heaters in the backrests
and cushions. The heaters have three
heat settings and each seat has its own
control.
The front seat buttons are located at the
top of the centre console.
With the engine running, pressing a
heater button will select the highest heat
setting, as indicated by three illuminated
red lights.
A second press selects the mid setting
(two red lights) and a third press selects
the lowest heat setting (one red light).
A fourth press turns the seat heater off;
all indicator lights off. The rear seat heater buttons are located
below the rear air vents.
Note:
The heater will automatically
switch off if the engine is turned off or if a
fault is detected.
A heater will maintain a preset
temperature while it is switched on.
Storage of the vehicle in a heated garage,
body heat or warm ambient temperatures
may prevent operation of the seat heater.
Heated Steering Wheel
A heater is incorporated in the steering
wheel rim and operates in conjunction
with the driver’s seat heater. The steering
wheel heater is switched on in any of the
three driver seat heater positions.
5 - 4 Climate Control
In AUTO mode, the air intake flap is
controlled automatically. If required,
air recirculation may be manually
selected for either a short or indefinite
period.
Air Recirculation
Timed air recirculationPress the button briefly to select
timed air recirculation.
The fresh air intake is opened
and the button LED extinguished at the
end of the time out period.
Latched air re circulation
Press and hold the button for a
few seconds to select latched air
recirculation. Selection is
indicated by the scre en symbol and two
beeps.
Selecting latched air recirculation cancels
AUTO operation.
To deselect latched air recirculation,
press the recirculat ion button again,
or select AUTO.
!WARNING:
To prevent humidity build up inside
the vehicle and possible screen
misting, avoid driving with the air
conditioning system off or with
manual air recirculation selected for
prolonged periods.
General Points
To ensure the satisfactory operation of
the climate control system, note the
following points:
• Ensure that the external grille at the base of the windscreen, which
provides fresh air for the climate
control system, is kept clear of leaves,
snow or obstructions.
• A solar sensor is mounted on the centre top of the fascia, as shown
opposite ( A) . E n s u r e t h a t this sensor is
not covered.
• Temperature and humidity sensors are located behind the small grille ( B).
Do not cover or obstruct the opening.
• Air ducts under the front seats supply the rear passenger footwells (see
illustration opposite). Objects or
material placed under the seats may
block or obstruct the open ducts. • The external air intake to the air
conditioner/heater system is fitted
with a filter. Ensure that the filter is
changed at the specified service
intervals to maintain efficient
operation.
• If the air conditioning system is not used frequently, it should be run
briefly at least once each week, with a
cold setting, to prevent the seals from
drying out with subsequent
refrigerant leaks.
• Moisture removed from the air by the air conditioning unit is discharged
onto the road underneath the vehicle.
After stopping, puddles of water may
form underneath the vehicle.
Air Distribution
The illustration opposite shows the
location of the air vents within the
vehicle. The airflow from the fascia face
level vents is regulated using thumbwheel
controls and adjustable direction vanes.
Air distribution between the windscreen,
fascia and floor levels is selected
automatically when operating in AUTO
mode but can be selected manually.

United States Department of
Transportation/Uniform Tyre Quality
Grades
The following information relates to the
tyre grading system developed by the
National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration which will grade tyres by
tread wear, traction and temperature
performance.
Tread wear
The tread wear grade is a comparative
rating based on the wear rate of the tyre
when tested under controlled conditions
on a specified government test course.
For example, a tyre graded 150 would
wear one and a half (1.5) times as well on
the government course as a tyre
graded 100.
The relative performance of tyres
depends upon the actual conditions of
their use, however, and may depart
significantly from the norm due to
variations in driving habits, service
practices and differences in road
characteristics and climate. Traction – A, B, C
The traction grades, from the highest to
the lowest are ‘
A’, ‘ B’ and ‘ C’, and they
represent the tyre’s ability to stop on wet
pavements as measured under controlled
conditions on specified government test
surfaces of asphalt and concrete. A tyre
marked ‘ C’ may have poor traction
performance.
!WARNING:
The traction grade assigned to this
tyre is based on braking (straight
ahead) traction tests and does not
include cornering (turning) traction. Temperature – A, B, C
The temperature grades ‘
A’ (the highest),
‘ B ’ and ‘C ’ representing the tyre’s
resistance to the generation of heat and
its ability to dissipate heat when tested
under controlled conditions on a
specified indoor laboratory test wheel.
Sustained high temperature can cause the
material of the tyre to degenerate and
reduce tyre life, and excessive
temperature can lead to sudden tyre
failure.
The grade ‘ C’ corresponds to a level of
performance which all passenger car
tyres must meet under the Federal Motor
Vehicle Safety Standard No. 109.
Grades ‘ B’ and ‘ A’ represent higher levels
of performance on the laboratory test
wheel than the minimum required by
law.
!WARNING:
The temperature grade for this tyre is
established for a tyre that is properly
inflated and not over loaded.
Excessive speed, under-inflation or
excessive loading, either separately
or in combination, can cause heat
build-up and possible tyre failure.
7-24 Maintenance
Cleaning the rear screen
To avoid damaging the heating and radio
elements when cleaning the inside of the
rear screen use only a soft damp cloth or
chamois leather. Do not use solvents or
sharp objects to clean the glass.
Polishing paintwork and brightwork
For maximum protection against road
dust, salts, industrial fall-out etc., it is
recommended that the vehicle is polished
regularly using Jaguar Polish and a
Polishing Cloth.
Note:The vehicle’s brightwork should be
cleaned in the same way as the paintwork:
Chrome polish or other abrasive cleaners
must not be used. Paint chips
Scratches and chips should be touched in
before weathering action begins. Inspect
the paintwork imme
diately after the
vehicle has been washed.
Underhood cleaning
Underhood cleaning using high pressure
hoses or steam cleaners should be done
by a Jaguar Retailer. Indiscriminate use of
cleaning equipment could damage or
contaminate the electronic control
modules and fuse boxes.Care of Alloy Road Wheels
The alloy road wheels are covered with a
protective anti-corrosion coating.
To prevent corrosion it is essential that
this coating is not damaged.
When removing or fitting tyres always
advise the tyre fitte r to treat the alloy
wheels with great care and to only use
equipment with spigot or stud hole
clamping. The equipment must not have
any moving parts which contact the
wheel, and tyre levers must not be used.
Wash the wheels with soap and water at
two week intervals to avoid an
accumulation of particles which could
become embedded in the wheel surface.
In salty conditions the wheels should be
cleaned weekly.
