Jaguar Assist (North America only)
Assist is an integrated vehicle emergency message
system (VEMS) that uses the Jaguar security
response center for emergency roadside
assistance via the Jaguar in-car telephone
installation. The global positioning system (GPS) is
used to identify the position, direction of travel
and speed of the vehicle. Access to the Assist
feature is through the use of the Navigation
system. The emergency assistance feature allows
rapid access to the emergency services (police,
fire or ambulance) and roadside assistance. Once
assistance has been requested and the vehicle
location confirmed, the appropriate services are
contacted for assistance to be dispatched. In the
unfortunate event of an airbag deployment, the
system will automatically place an emergency call.
Access to the system is gained by pressing the
information button on the Navigation front panel
screen (the ignition must be in position ÔIÕ or ÔIIÕ).
While in use, a sequence of messages is displayed
on the LCD.
Note: If an Assist call is initiated and the operator
cannot establish voice communication, police
assistance will be dispatched to the vehicle.
The system can be used wherever a cellular
phone service is available. The Jaguar phone must
be connected to the vehicle, working correctly
and registered with a cellular network. A roaming
airtime agreement is required so that the system
can be used in all areas.
Diagnostic Light
A diagnostic light is integrated into the
information (ASSIST) button. The diagnostic light
flashes throughout an activation but stays on
continuously when a failure is detected. A
message is given on the display: ÔASSIST
FAILUREÕ. There are four potential failure modes:
1. No VEMS menu is displayed when the
information ASSIST button is pressed
2. No activation is performed when the enter
button is pressed to make a selection3. VEMS is unable to compute the location of
the vehicleÕs current position
4. The Navigation system is unable to display
any VEMS messages or would display the
wrong VEMS messages.
Real Time Traffic Information (RTTI)
In the UK the provider for RTTI is ÔTrafficmasterÕ.
Information is collected from their own unique
network of infra-red road sensors which monitor
the average speed of traffic. This information is
sent by radio data link to TrafficmasterÕs
operational headquarters. After processing and
editing the information, it is transmitted in real
time, in words and graphics to Trafficmaster
control modules installed in vehicles. RTTI will not
be available on early vehicles but could be Dealer
fitted retrospectively.
Other markets will use different traffic congestion
information services which will depend on market
infrastructure and service provider support. Japan
will use the ÔVehicle Information and
Communications SystemÕ (VICS).

Voice Activation
JOL.275
General
Voice Activation, currently available in a limited
number of markets, provides a convenient way of
controlling the following vehicle systems (where
fitted):
¥ Sound System (radio, cassette tape player and
CD player)
¥ In-car Telephone
¥ Climate Control System.
The system is controlled by the Voice button on
the left-hand side of the steering wheel. Voice
commands are picked up by a directional
microphone mounted on the headlining between
the overhead console and the sunvisor. The
microphone is also used for the in-car telephone.
When giving a command, audible feedback will be
heard through the sound system speakers and
messages will be shown on the message center
display. Audible feedback can be turned off if
required. The system is capable of storing unique
nametags for 20 radio stations and 40 phone
numbers. Verbal playback of nametag directories
is provided by issuing the proper voice command
(RADIO DIRECTORY or PHONE DIRECTORY).Personal directories of nametags for phone dialing
and radio station presets can be created and
spoken command help is provided.
Language and Accent
Commands are given in English in a natural
speaking voice, without having to pause between
words. Most United kingdom accents (for vehicles
equipped with a UK Voice Module) or North
American accents (for vehicles equipped with a US
Voice Module) are understood without difficulty
but the system also provides for voice training, if
required. Voice feedback is given in UK English
(for vehicles equipped with a UK Voice Module) or
US English (for vehicles equipped with a US Voice
Module).
Voice Commands
Voice commands are generally in the form of:
¥ System, e.g. Radio
¥ Function, e.g. Tune
¥ Action Required, e.g. 99.7 (to select the
frequency).
Note:
1. Voice commands cannot be given while a
phone call is in progress.
2. While a voice command is being processed,
the command can be canceled by pressing the
Voice button again.
3. Audible feedback can be interrupted by
pressing the Voice button during the verbal
playback. In this case the command is not
canceled.
Command Help
There are commands available which give
spoken/visual help for the voice commands. This
provides a useful reminder of the commands
available while driving.

VOICE HELP; RADIO HELP; TAPE HELP; CD HELP;
PHONE HELP AND CLIMATE CONTROL HELP.

Using the System
Initialization
When the ignition switch is turned to position ÔIIÕ, the initialization of the system is carried out, which
takes a few seconds. When complete, the system is ready to accept voice commands. If the voice
button is pressed before initialization is complete, the message center display will show ÔVOICE NOT
READYÕ.
Audible Feedback, Confirmation & Prompts
For most voice commands, audible feedback of the command, as understood by the system, is available.
Audible feedback may be turned on or off by giving the VOICE FEEDBACK command.
For the phone dial commands, confirmation of the number, before it is dialed, may be turned on or off
by giving the PHONE FEEDBACK command. During some commands for voice training, the user is
prompted by the system to give the next item of information.
For specific operation of all the controls, refer to the OwnerÕs Voice Activation Handbook.
Voice Training
The Voice Activation System is able to interpret most English speakers without difficulty. If, however, it is
found that commands are sometimes not being recognized, the voice training procedure can be carried
out.
Voice Memories
The system has two memories (A and B) for storing the trained voices. The Voice Memory Directory
command provides an indication of the availability of the two voice memories (Full or Available).
Giving Commands after Training
After Voice training the system will automatically recognize a speaker whose voice is held in voice
memory. The system can still be used by other speakers with no loss of response.
Error Messages
In addition to the voice command prompts given by the system, the following error messages may be
encountered. The messages are shown on the message center with voice confirmation (error tone or
voice playback).
