GARAGE DOOR TRANSCEIVERThe door transceiver is located in the rear-view
mirror. It can be programmed to transmit the
radio frequencies of up to three different
transmitters, which can be used to activate
garage doors, entry ga tes, home lighting,
security systems or other radio frequency
operated devices.
Although this section mainly describes the
procedures for a garage door opener, it also
equally applies to the previously mentioned
applications.
In some countries, this feature is also known
as the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver.
For further information, see Information and
Assistance later in this section.
Before programming
For best results, fit a new battery to the
hand-held transmitter of the garage door
opener (or other device ) before programming.
If your garage door opener receiver (located in
the garage) is equippe d with an antenna,
ensure that the antenna is hanging straight
down.
WARNINGS
Do not use the transceiver with any
garage door opener that lacks the
safety stop and reverse feature as
required by safety standards. Using a garage
door opener without these features increases
risk of serious injury or death.
When programming the transceiver
to a garage door opener or entry gate,
ensure the area is clear. This will
prevent potential harm or damage as the gate
or garage door will activate during the
programme.
CAUTION
This device may suffer from interference
if operated in the vici nity of a mobile or
fixed station transmitter. This interference is
likely to affect the hand-held transmitter as
well as the in-car transceiver.
E95122
CAUTION
When programming a device that may
require you to press and re-press the
hand-held transmitte r (cycle), unplug the
device during the cycling process to prevent
possible motor failure.

Engine block heaters
Engines are more difficult to start when the
ambient temperature is very low. In
geographical areas where temperatures below
-10°C (14°F) are experienced frequently, it is
advisable to fit an engine block heater. The
block heater will have an insulated connector at
the front of the vehicle, which is connected to a
mains supply using a suitable extension cable.
The heater can remain in use overnight if
required. Typically, an e ngine block heater will
use between 400W and 1000W per hour.
For further information consult your Jaguar
Dealer/Authorised Repairer.
If the engine fails to start
When pressing the engine START/STOP button
to start the engine, if the security status
indicator lamp on the top surface of the

DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER (DPF)
The Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) forms part of
the emissions reduction system fitted to your
vehicle. The DPF will remove a high proportion
of the harmful car bon microspheres (soot)
before they leave the exhaust. It achieves this
by filtering out the particles, which are then
stored until they are burnt away and the filter is
emptied.
Regeneration
Unlike a normal filter which requires periodic
replacement, the DPF has been designed to
regenerate, or clean itself, to maintain
operating efficiency. Th is regeneration process
takes place automatically in most cases.
However, some unfavourable driving
conditions may mean th at the regeneration
process must be initiate d deliberately by the
driver.
Warning indicators and messages
If regeneration cannot be achieved
automatically by the system, due to short
journeys for example, the driver will be notified
via a warning indicator or message.
DPF FULL
If this message appears in the message centre
(with a red backlight), the vehicle should be
taken to your Dealer/Authorised Repairer as
soon as possible.
DPF FULL SEE HANDBOOK
If this message appears in the message centre
(with an amber backlight), the driver should
carry out the DPF regene ration procedure that
follows, as soon as possible.
CAUTION
The regeneration procedure produces
high temperatures in the DPF. Heat can
be felt radiating from beneath the vehicle,
which is normal and not a cause for concern.
However, the vehicle should not be parked
over combustible material, particularly during
dry weather. The heat generated could be
sufficient to start a fire when in close proximity
to combustible material such as long dry
grass, paper etc.
CAUTION
Failure to take the appropriate action
when a warning message appears, may
result in damage to the engine and DPF
system, increased vehicle emissions and
costly repairs.

Regeneration procedure
If the warning DPF FULL SEE HANDBOOK
appears in the message centre, carry out the
following procedure as soon as possible.
Note: At all times during this procedure you
should observe all releva nt speed limits, laws
and regulations. Always ta ke account of traffic
and weather conditions and drive with
consideration for other road users.
1. Drive the vehicle until the engine reaches
normal operating temp erature. The engine
should not be left idli ng to achieve working
temperature.
2. Drive the vehicle for a further twenty
minutes, keeping the vehicle at a steady
speed between 75 km/h (45 mph) and
120 km/h (75 mph).
Keeping a constant speed enables the DPF
to regenerate more efficiently. It is
therefore recommended that Cruise
control is used to achieve this, if possible.
3. If regeneration is su ccessful, the warning
message will extinguish. If the message
remains, repeat the process.
If the warning message fa ils to extinguish after
60 minutes of driving, contact your Dealer/
Authorised Repairer for assistance.
