Seats

SITTING IN THE CORRECT POSITION
The seat, head restraint, seat belt and airbags,
all contribute to the protection of the user.
Correct use of these components will give you
greater protection, therefore you should
observe the following points:
1. Sit in an upright position with the base of
your spine as far back as possible and the
seatback reclined no more than 30
degrees.
2. Do not move the driver's seat too close to
the steering wheel. Ideally, a minimum
distance of 254 mm (10 inches) is
recommended betwee n the breastbone
and the steering wheel airbag cover. Hold
the steering wheel in the correct position
with your arms slightly bent.
• Adjust the head restraint so that its highest
point is level with the top of your head. •
Position the seat belt so that it is mid-way
between your neck an d your shoulder. Fit
the strap tightly across your hips, not
across your stomach.
• Ensure that your driving position is
comfortable and enables you to maintain
full control of the vehicle.
WARNING
Do not adjust the seat while the
vehicle is moving. Doing so could
cause loss of vehicle control and
personal injury.

Seat belts

Seat belt checks
Note: If the vehicle is parked on an incline, the
seat belt mechanism may lock. This is not a
fault and the belt should be gently eased out
from the upper anchorage.
The seat belts should be inspected regularly to
check for fraying, cuts or wear to the webbing,
and the condition and security of the
mechanism, buckles, adjusters, and mounting
points.
• With the seat belt fastened, give the
webbing near the buckle a quick upward
pull. The buckle must remain securely
locked. •
With the seat belt unfastened, unreel the
seat belt to the limit of its travel. Check that
it unreels smoothly with no snatches or
snags. Allow the belt to fully retract, again
checking for smooth operation.
• Partially unreel the seat belt, then hold the
tongue plate and give a quick forward pull.
The mechanism must lock and prevent any
further unreeling.
If any of the seat belts fail to meet those
criteria, immediately contact your Dealer/
Authorised Repairer.
SEAT BELT REMINDER
If the driver's seat belt is not
fastened when the vehicle is in
motion, a chime will be heard and
the seat belt warning i ndicator will illuminate.
The warning chime and indicator will also be
activated if the front passenger seat is
occupied without the seat belt being fastened.
Note: Objects placed on the front passenger
seat may activate the seat belt reminder
warning chime and i ndicator. It is
recommended that any objects placed on the
front passenger seat are secured using the seat
belt.
If any damage, wear, cuts, defects or
impaired operation are noted with the
seat belts, the vehi
cle should be taken
to a Dealer/Authorised Repairer for immediate
attention. Do not use th e vehicle if the seat
belts cannot be operated correctly.
When using seat belts to restrain
items other than occ upants, take care
to ensure that the belts are not
damaged, or exposed to sharp edges.
Care must be taken to avoid
contaminating the seat belt webbing
and seat belt mechanisms with any
chemicals, liquids, gr it, dirt or cleaning
products. If the seat belts do become
contaminated, they should be replaced
immediately. Contaminat ed seat belts my not
operate correctly in an impact and cannot be
relied upon.
The use of comfort clips, or devices
that would create slackness in the
seat belt system, is not advised.

Seat belts

USING SEAT BELTS DURING
PREGNANCY
Position the lap strap comfortably across the
hips beneath the abdomen. Place the diagonal
part of the seat belt be tween the breasts and to
the side of the abdomen. Ensure that the seat
belt is not slack or twisted.
FASTENING THE SEAT BELTS
1. Draw the belt out smoothly, ensure that the
belt height, the seat , and your position on
the seat are correct. The belt should lay flat
across the pelvis, ches t, and mid-point of
the collar bone between the neck and
shoulder.
2. With the seat belt correctly positioned,
place the metal tongue into the buckle
nearest to you. Press it in until a click is
heard.
Releasing the seat belts
Note: When releasing the seat belt it is
advisable to hold the belt before pressing the
release button. This will prevent the belt from
retracting too quickly.
To release the seat belt, press the red button.
WARNINGS
Position the seat belt correctly for the
safety of the mother and unborn
child. Never wear just the lap strap,
and never sit on the lap strap whilst using just
the shoulder strap. Both of these actions are
extremely dangerous a nd may increase your
risk of serious injury in the event of an accident
or during emergency braking.
Never place anything between you
and the seat belt in an attempt to
cushion the impact in the event of an
accident. It can be da ngerous and will reduce
the effectiveness of the seat belt in preventing
injury.

Child safety

CHILD SEATS
The seat belts fitted to your vehicle are
designed for adults and larger children. For
their safety, it is very important for all infants
and children under 12 years of age to be
restrained in a suitable child safety seat
appropriate to their age and size.
Children are always safest when seated in a
rear seating position.
If it is essential that a child travels in the front
passenger seat, Jaguar recommends that the
following preparations are made before fitting
the child restraint.
• Adjust the front passenger seat fully
rearwards.
• Adjust the lumbar support to its minimum
support position.
• Adjust the seat cushion to its highest
position. If cushion front tilt adjustment is
possible, adjust it to its lowest position.
• Adjust the seat back to the fully upright
position.
• Adjust the seat be lt adjustable upper
anchorage to its lowest position.
In some countries, legislation prohibits
children travelling in the front of a vehicle.
Ensure that you are familiar with the legislation
in force where the vehicle is being used and are
in full compliance.
WARNINGS
Do not use a child restraint on a seat
protected by an airbag in front of it.
There is a risk of death or serious
injury when the airbag deploys.
Crash statistics show that children
are safest when properly restrained in
a child or infant restraint system that
is secured in a rear seating position.
For optimum safety , children should
travel in the rear of the vehicle at all
times; front passenge r seat travel is
not recommended. However, if it is
essential that a child travels in the front, set the
vehicle seat fully rearward and seat the child in
an approved forward-facing child seat. Do not
use a rear-facing child seat - an inflating airbag
could impact with the seat and cause serious
injury.
Do not use a forward facing child seat
until the child using it is above the
minimum weight of 9 kg (20 lb.) and
able to sit up unaided. Up to the age of two, a
child's spine and neck are not sufficiently
developed to avoid injury in a frontal impact.
Do not allow a baby or infant to be
held or carried on the lap. The force of
a crash can increase effective body
weight by as much as thirty times, making it
impossible to hold onto the child.
Children typically require the use of a
booster seat appropriate to their age
and size, thereby enabling the seat
belts to be properly fitted, reducing the risk of
injury in a crash. Children could be
endangered in a crash if their child restraints
are not properly secured in the vehicle.Do not use a chil d seat that hooks
over the seat back. This type of seat
cannot be satisfacto rily secured and
is unlikely to be safe for your child.

CHILD SEAT ANCHOR POINTS
ISOFIX anchor points (not Australia)
Both of the outer rear seat positions are
equipped to accept ISOFIX restraints.
This symbol is shown on a label
sewn into the seats to indicate the
position of the ISOFIX lower
anchorages.
Note: The information contained in the
following table may not be applicable to all
countries. If you are in any doubt regarding the
type and fitment of child seats seek advice from
your Jaguar Dealer/A uthorised Repairer.
WARNINGS
Do not attempt to fit ISOFIX restraints
to the centre rear seating position.
The anchor bars are not designed to
hold an ISOFIX restraint in this position.
If the restraint is not correctly
anchored, there is a significant risk of
injury to the child in the event of a
collision or emergency braking.
Child restraint anchorages are
designed to withstand only loads
imposed by correctly fitted child
restraints. Under no circumstances are they to
be used for adult seat belts, harnesses or for
attaching other items or equipment to the
vehicle.
If removing a head restraint in order
to fit a child restraint, always secure
the head restraint when storing it. If
left loose in the vehicle, it may cause death or
serious injury during sudden braking or an
impact.
