Vehicle care
Glass surfaces
Clean the rear window with a soft cloth to avoid
damaging the heating element. Do not scrape
the glass or use any abrasive cleaning fluid.
Mirror glass is particularly susceptible to
damage. Wash with soapy water. Do not use
abrasive cleaning compounds or metal
scrapers to remove ice.
The following products will ensure glass
surfaces and windscreen wipers are kept in
good condition:
• Jaguar Screen Clean Paste - Apply only to
the windscreen exterior to ensure effective
operation of the windscreen wiper.
• Jaguar Glass Cleaner - Interior and exterior
of all other glass surfaces.
• Jaguar Screen Wash - Washer reservoir
additive.
• Jaguar Winter Care Kit comprising de-icer,
ice scraper, anti-mist wipe cloth and aerial
cleaner - for use in adverse weather
conditions.
Cleaning the rear screen
To avoid damaging the heating elements when
cleaning the inside of th e rear screen, use only
a soft damp cloth/chamois leather. Do not use
solvents or sharp objects to clean the glass.
Removing grease and tar
Remove grease or tar with Jaguar Tar Remover
or methylated spirit (a lcohol). White spirit is
also effective, but mu st not be applied to
rubber, particularly the windscreen wiper
blades.
Bird droppings
Do not allow bird droppings or tree sap to
harden. Remove from paintwork immediately
with a lukewarm soap and water solution.
Polishing
For maximum protection against road dust,
salts, industrial fall-out etc., it is recommended
that the vehicle is polished regularly using
Jaguar polish and a polishing cloth.
CLEANING THE INTERIOR
CAUTION
Ensure that after using methylated or
white spirit, the area is washed
immediately with soapy water, to remove all
traces of spirit.
CAUTION
Chrome polish, or other abrasive
cleaners, must not be used on the
vehicle's brightwork. The vehicle's brightwork
should be cleaned using a sponge and
generous quantities of cold or lukewarm water
only. Rinse thoroughly a nd dry with a chamois
leather or synthetic substitute.
WARNING

information and instructions for use
provided with cleaning products.
Some products contain substances that are
harmful and can cause he alth problems if used
incorrectly.
CAUTIONS

cause damage to the in terior surfaces of
the vehicle.
To prevent airbag damage, the steering
wheel centre pad and other areas
containing airbags s hould only be cleaned

Maintenance
WASHER FLUID CHECK
The washer reservoir supplies the windscreen
and headlamp washer jets.
Check and top-up the reservoir level at least
every week.
Fill with Jaguar Windscreen Washer Fluid,
diluted with clean water, as specified in the
instructions on the bottle. Using a
non-approved fluid may adversely affect the
wiper blade rubber, resulting in ineffectual and
noisy wiping.
Operate the washer switches periodically to
check that the nozzles are clear and properly
directed.
Topping up the fluid
1. Clean the filler cap before removing to
prevent dirt from entering the reservoir.
2. Open filler cap.
3. Top-up the reservoir until the fluid is
visible in the filler neck.
4. Close filler cap.
WARNINGS
Some screen washer products are
inflammable, particularly if high or
undiluted concentrations are exposed
to sparking. Do not allow screen washer fluid
to come into contact with naked flames or
sources of ignition.
If the vehicle is operated in
temperatures below 4°C (40°F), use a
washer fluid with frost protection. In
cold weather, failure to use a washer fluid with
frost protection, could result in impaired
vision and increase the risk of a vehicle crash.
CAUTIONS
Do not use an antifreeze or
vinegar/water solution in the washer
reservoir - antifreeze will damage painted
surfaces, while vinegar can damage the
windscreen washer pump.
Body panels may suffer discolouration
as a result of screen washer fluid
spillage. Take care to avoid spillage,
particularly if an undiluted or high
concentration is being us ed. If spillage occurs,
wash the affected area immediately with water.
