Seats
All seats are completely new to Jaguar with no
commonality to previous models.
Front Seats
The drivers seat and front passenger seat are
electrically adjustable for front and rear seat
height, fore and aft movement and squab tilt with
optional lumbar adjustment. Optional heated
cushions and squabs may be fitted with the heater
switches located on the centre console. The head
restraints are manually adjustable for height (four
positions) and tilt. The drivers seat also has an
optional two position memory facility. Side airbags
are fitted to both front seat squabs (see Occupant
Protection section).
Seat Construction
The seat track assembly consists of two slider
rails, cross mounted drive mechanisms and anelectrical harness sub-assembly. The seat cushion
pan is supported on four brackets attached to the
height adjustment drive actuators. Two separate
drive motors and screw actuator mechanisms
provide raise/lower movements respectively for
the front and rear of the cushion. The seat fore
and aft motor and drive shaft are located across
the front of the track assembly: note the drive
shaft must not be used to lift the seat assembly
when fitting or removing a seat. Each drive has a
potentiometer to register the selected position for
memory storage.
The track assembly wiring harness and driver seat
control module (DSCM) (driverÕs side only) are
fixed to a plastic tray which clips onto the frame.
The squab frame is a welded steel construction
which bolts to the track assembly and carries the
recline drive, lumbar support mechanism and a
