LOCKING AND UNLOCKING
Locking and unlocking from outside the
vehicle
Locking and unlocking the vehicle using the
Jaguar Smart Key, is explained earlier in this
handbook. See USING THE REMOTE
CONTROL (page 17). Locking and unlocking
the vehicle using the Keyless Entry system is
explained later in this handbook. See KEYLESS
ENTRY (page 33).
Note: To help prevent locking the Jaguar Smart
Key inside the vehicle, it has been made
difficult to slam lock a door using the interior
door locking lever. The door will not lock.
Luggage compartment
Note: If the Jaguar Smart Key is placed within
a metal box, it will not be detected by the
vehicle security system.
The luggage compartment can be opened at
any time, using the appropriate button on the
Jaguar Smart Key or via keyless entry. It can
also be opened using th e exterior release,
provided the doors are unlocked.
Provided the vehicle is not locked or alarmed,
the luggage compartment can also be opened
using the interior release button.

Drive-away locking
This feature locks all unsecured locks when the
vehicle reaches a designated forward speed.
This designated speed and whether or not
drive-away locking is en abled, can be set using
the vehicle touch-screen. See PROGRAMMING
THE REMOTE CONTROL (page 21).
WARNING
Never double lock the vehicle with
people, children or pets inside. In the
event of an emergency they would be
unable to escape, and the emergency services
would be unable to release them quickly.
When the vehicle is double-locked the doors
cannot be opened, either from inside or
outside the vehicle.
Breaking a window will not allow a door to be
opened.CAUTION
If the luggage comp artment is opened
after the driver an d passenger doors are

AUXILIARY POWER SOCKETS
The auxiliary power socket is located in the
cubby box.
GLOVE BOX
The glove box is opened using the
JaguarSense proximity sensor on the fascia
(arrowed). To open the glove box, place the tip
of your finger close to and directly over the
sensor, as shown in the left-hand inset of the
illustration.
The sensor is able to distinguish between a
finger approach and an accidental finger rub
approach from a knee or other large items,
including being wiped for cleaning purposes.
Under these conditions, the sensor will not
react to the input and th e glove box will remain
closed.
Note: When the vehicle alarm is armed or Valet
mode is selected, the proximity sensor is
disabled, preventing the glove box from being
opened.
Note: The wearing of gloves may interfere with
the operation of the prox imity sensor. If gloves
are worn, it may be necessary to touch the
sensor to open the glove box.
CAUTIONS
Only Jaguar approv ed accessories
should be plugged into the power
sockets. Using any other equipment may
damage the vehicle's electrical system. If you
are in any doubt contact your Dealer/
Authorised Repairer.
The engine should be running when
using accessories for long periods.
Failure to do so can discharge the battery.
