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.

Before Driving 3 - 15
Various sensors determine the direction
and severity of an impact and the
presence and position of front seat
occupants.
The system analyses this information then
deploys the appropriate air bags only
e.g. the side air bags where the impact is
on that side only.
Air bags are not deployed in a rear
impact.
Air bag deployment
To do their life-saving job, air bags must
inflate rapidly and with considerable
force. There is therefore a risk of death or
serious injuries such as fractures, facial
and eye injuries or internal injuries,
particularly to occupants who are not
properly restrained by seats belt or sitting
correctly when the air bag deploys.
The risk of injury fr om a deploying air bag
is greatest close to the trim covering the
air bag.
The whole sequence of events from
sensing the impact to full inflation of the
bag takes place in a fraction of a second.
The noise and gas associated with the
deployment of the air bags is not
injurious to health. After air bag deployme
nt, it is normal to
notice a smoke-like, powdery residue or
smell the burnt propellant. This may
consist of cornstarch, talcum powder or
sodium compounds that result from the
combustion process that inflates the air
bag.
Small amounts of other chemicals may be
present which may irri tate the skin and
eyes, but none of the residue is toxic.
While the system is designed to help
reduce serious injuries, it may also cause
minor burns, abrasions, swelling or
temporary hearing loss.
!WARNING:
1. No objects whatso ever should be
attached to the centre cover of the
steering wheel, the passenger
fascia panel, the sides of the front
seats or the interior trim
immediately above the door
openings. Do not put anything on
or over the air bag inflation area.
Placing objects on or over the air
bag inflation area may cause those
objects to be propelled by the air
bag into your face and torso
causing serious injury. 2. Safety experts recommend a
minimum distance of at least
10 inches (25.4 cm) between an
occupant’s chest and a front air
bag.
3. Children 12 years old and younger can be killed or seriously injured
by the air bag. The rear seat is the
safest place for children.
4. Do not try to put an adult seat belt around two children.
5. Several air bag system components get hot after inflation.
Do not touch them after they have
deployed.
6. If an air bag is inflated, the air bag will not function again and must
be renewed immediately.
If a new air bag is not fitted,
the unrepaired area will increase
the risk of injury in a collision.

Before Driving 3 - 17
Occupancy sensing
The front passenger seat is monitored by ultra-sonic sensors
(shown above) and a seat weight sensor to determine the
presence, weight and position of the front passenger. In certain
conditions, e.g. where no passenger is present, the appropriate
air bags will be deactivated. In a collision these air bags would
not be deployed. Note:
The occupancy sensing system is designed to confirm that
a front passenger is properly seated as recommended:
• Always sit centrally in the seat, remaining in contact with the seat back which for comfort should be rearwards of the
vertical position.
• Adjust the seat to be as far back from the fascia as practical.
• Always wear seatbelts.
The seat adjustment controls are described on page 3 - 3.
!WARNING:
It is important that the passenger position sensors
(see illustration) are not obscured in any way which could
affect air bag deployment, e.g. fitting non-approved
accessories.

Exterior Lighting
Master Lighting Rotary Switch
Positions
• OFF.
• Side (parking) lights.
• Headlights.
• Autolamps/exit delay.
!WARNING:
It is an offence in certain countries to
obscure front and rear lights,
direction indicators and reflectors. The exterior lights ar
e controlled by the
left-hand column stalk switch.
The rotary collar on the stalk has three
positions for turning th e exterior lights on
or off and positions for autolamps/exit
delay. These are:
OFF – All exterior lights OFF (except
vehicles provided with daylight running
lights).
Sidelights – Switches on front sidelights,
tail, number plate an d any other marker
lights required by local legislation.
When the external lights are ON the
instruments will also be lit.
Headlights – With the ignition in
position ‘II’, this position switches on
dipped headlights in addition to the lights
switched on in sidelight position.
The left-hand column stalk switch has
two positions for controlling the main
beam.
Pulling the switch towards the steering
wheel and releasing causes the main
beam to flash on and off. The main beam
can be flashed at any time when the
switch is pulled and will remain ON for
as long as the switch is held. The second position is to switch main
beam headlights ON. With the ignition in
position ‘II’, first select dipped beam
lights, and then push the column light
switch away from the steering wheel.
The blue warning light on the instrument
cluster and main be
am headlights will
come ON.
To turn main beam OFF, pull the column
switch towards the steering wheel to
return to dipped beam.
Note: If dipped beam is switched OFF
with main beam stil l activated, both
dipped and main beam will be
extinguished. Both dipped and main
beam will illuminate if dipped is turned on
again.
Autolamps – A light sensor control,
mounted on the front of the fascia,
monitors exterior light levels and
automatically switches the sidelights and
dipped headlights ON or OFF.
The ignition switch must be in
position ‘II’ and AUTO selected on the
stalk switch for full automatic light
operation.
When light fades towards dusk,
the sidelights and headlights will switch
ON automatically and the sidelight
warning light in the instrument cluster
will illuminate.
