door are opened.
• If a front door is unlocked using the
emergency key blade or the interior door
lock release levers and then opened.
• Movement is detected within the vehicle
interior.
• A window, front or rear windscreen, or
sunroof glass are broken.
• The vehicle is raised or tilted.
• The vehicle battery is disconnected. •
An attempt is made to disconnect the
alarm siren.
• An attempt is made to start the vehicle,
without a valid Jaguar Smart Key present.
Note: If the alarm is armed and a window or the
sunroof are left open, the alarm may sound due
to movement of air currents.
Note: Some of the above conditions are market

without a valid Jaguar Smart Key present.
Note: This setting should be used in
circumstances such as travelling on a ferry,
when pets are to be left in the vehicle, when a

Alarm

Alarm trigger information
If you have reason to believe that the alarm was
triggered when you were away from the
vehicle, it is possible to check on your return
using the touch-screen.
From the touch-screen Home menu, select
Vehicle and then Veh. settings . The Security
menu is displayed automatically as the default.
Use the arrow icons to scroll to the second
screen.
A text display (arrowed) will indicate if the
alarm has been triggere d, and also indicate
what the cause of the trigger was (e.g. Driver
door, Passenger door, Inclination sensor,
Trunk, etc.).
SECURITY SENSORS
Note: If the vehicle is to be transported by
road, rail or sea, the vehicle should not be
double-locked or the tilt and intrusion sensors
should be deactivated using the touch-screen.
See PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE CONTROL
(page 21). This prevents the alarm from
sounding as the vehi cle pitches and rolls.
Tilt sensor
The tilt sensor detect s any change in the
vehicle's inclination to the ground. When the
alarm is armed and the vehicle double-locked,
any change in the vehicle's inclination will
activate the tilt alarm. This feature protects
against unauthorised towing away or
jacking-up of the vehicle.
The tilt alarm is disarmed when the vehicle
security system is disarmed using the Jaguar
Smart Key.
Intrusion sensor
The intrusion sensor is mounted in the roof
console and detects any movement within the
vehicle cabin via the use of ultrasonic sound
waves. When the alarm is armed and the
vehicle double-locked, an y movement detected
inside the cabin will activate the alarm.
Note: It takes approximately 30 seconds for
the sensor to create an ultrasonic profile of the
cabin and be fully armed.
The intrusion alarm is disarmed when the
vehicle security system is disarmed using the
Jaguar Smart Key.
Note: Ensure all windows and sunroof are
closed prior to arming the alarm and
double-locking the vehicl e. Failure to do so
may result in false al arms being sounded due
to movements detected outside the vehicle.

Side and curtain airbags
To ensure that the side and curtain airbags are
fully effective:
Side and curtain airbags are designed to offer
increased protection for the torso and head in
a side impact. The curtain airbags may deflate
at a slower rate than the front or side airbags,
to afford prolonged protection.
Airbag deployment effects
WARNINGS
Do not allow passe ngers to obstruct
the operation of the airbags by
placing any part of their person, or
any objects, in contact with, or close to, an
airbag module. Airbags deploy at very high
speeds and can cause se rious injury or death
if objects or occupants are within the area of
deployment.
Do not sit too close to, lean or
sleep against the door trim. The
side and curtain airbags could
injure you as they deploy.
Do not lean out of the window.
Only use approved accessories (e.g.
seat covers).
Due to the function of the curtain
airbag deployment, consult your
Jaguar Dealer/Autho rised Repairer,
prior to installing any accessories in the upper
environment/pillar trim area (e.g. hands-free
telephone kits).
WARNINGS
When an airbag inflates, a by-product
of the gas generation may be released
as small particles. It is possible that
this may cause irritation and should be
thoroughly flushed from th e eyes and any cuts
or abrasions.
After inflation, some airbag
components are at high
temperatures. To prevent injury, do
no touch the airbag components until they
have cooled.
In order to react with sufficient speed,
airbags are deployed by a pyrotechnic
device. Consequently, airbag
deployment is accomp anied by a very loud
noise which may caus e discomfort and
temporary loss of hearing.

Activating the system
To activate voice control, press the voice
button on the steering wheel. A tone will be
heard and LISTENING will be displayed in the
message centre, to indicate that the system is
now waiting for a voice command.
Note: It is only necessary to press the voice
button at the beginning of each voice session.
Language and accent
Voice feedback is give n in the same language
as is set for Voice recognition. For example, if
the Voice recognition language is set to UK
English, the system wi ll not recognise other
languages (e.g. US English). The language for
the system can be changed using the
touch-screen as follows:
1. From the Home menu, select Comms.
2. From the Comms menu, select Voice and
then select Settings.
3. Select Change, then select the desired
language from the options available. Note:
Changing the Voice recognition language
will not affect the language settings for the
touch-screen.
Giving a command
Note: If background noise is excessive (e.g.
driving with windows open), the voice system
may not recognise a given voice command.
Press and release the Voice button on the
steering wheel and, after the tone, say one of
the commands listed later in this section, or
one of the commands given in either the
Telephone voice section or the Navigation
voice section, as appropriate. See TELEPHONE
VOICE CONTROL (page 323). SeeUSING
VOICE CONTROL (page 373).
Note: Always wait until the tone finishes
sounding before giving a voice command.
Give commands while facing forwards, in a
natural speaking voice as if talking to a
passenger or on the phon e. Most accents are
understood without difficul ty, but if the system
does not recognise the command, the system
will respond with SORRY and allow two more
attempts to say the command.
The system will repe at the command (as
understood by the system ) back to you as
confirmation. The comma nd will then be acted
on or the system will ask for further
information - always wait until after the tone
has sounded before speaking.
Once you are familiar with system requests, it
is possible to skip to the end of the request (to
when the tone sounds) to give your response.
To achieve this, briefly press and release the
voice button on the steering wheel during the
system request.
Note: If the Voice button on the steering wheel
is pressed before the system is ready to receive
a command, VOICE NOT READY will be
displayed in the message centre.

open position and hold for two seconds.
5. Lift and release the switch to operate the
one-shot function.
6. Repeat the procedure on each window.
WARNING
All of the windows have an anti-trap
protection system. However, before
closing a window care must be taken
to ensure that none of the occupants have any
part of their body in a position where it could
be trapped. Even with an anti-trap system
serious injury or death can occur.
