2009 JAGUAR XF Windows

Windows and mirrors
98

BSM is designed to work most effectively when
driving on multi-lane highways.
If an object is identified by the system as being
an overtaking vehicle/object, an amber
warning icon ( 1) illuminates in the relevant
exterior mirror, to alert the driver that there is a
potential hazard in the vehicle's blind spot and
therefore, that a lane change might be
dangerous.
Note: If an overtaking vehicle is detected on
both sides of the vehicle simultaneously, the
warning icons in both mirrors will illuminate.
Note: BSM is automatically turned off when
reverse ( R) gear is selected, when the vehicle is
in park ( P), the vehicle is travelling below
16 km/h (10 mph) and also when the electrical
connector for the trailer socket is plugged in on
vehicles with a factory-fitted towing bracket.
When in these conditions, an amber warning
indicator within the exterior mirror is
displayed.Sensor blockage
The BSM system will automatically disable if
either of the sensors become completely
obscured, an amber wa rning indicator dot (2)
is displayed in the exterior mirror and the
message BSM sensor blocked appears in the
message centre.
Note: Blockage testing is only initiated when
vehicle speed is above 32 km/h (20 mph) and
will take at least two minutes of accumulated
time travelling above th is speed, to determine
that the sensor is blocked.
If the sensors become blocked, then please
check that there is nothing obscuring the rear
bumper and that it is cl ear from ice, frost and
dirt.
System fault
If a fault with one of the radar sensors is
detected, an amber warn ing indicator dot is
displayed in the exterior mirror and the
message BSM not available is displayed in the
message centre.
Note: Even if the detected fault only affects the
radar sensor on one side of the vehicle, the
whole system is disabled. If the fault is
temporary, the system will operate correctly
once the engine has been switched off and then
on again.
If a fault in the system occurs, consult your
Dealer/Authorised Repairer.

blower only operates at low speed, until the
engine reaches normal operating temperature.
Recirculation
Press to turn recirculation on
or off. The button indicator
illuminates when recirculation
is turned on.
When selected, the air is recirculated inside the
vehicle. This helps to ma intain a high or low
temperature, and is useful for preventing
fumes from entering the vehicle.
Recirculation may also be selected in AUTO
mode, if the climate control system detects
high levels of pollution in the atmosphere
outside the vehicle (if a smog sensor is fitted).
Manual operation of the recirculation control
will override the automatic setting. This facility
can be switched off through the Settings menu
on the touch-screen.
Note: Prolonged use at low temperatures may
cause the windows to mist.
Air conditioning
Press the AUTO button to turn
the air conditioning on.
The air conditioning system is
controlled automatically in AUTO mode to
maintain the desired temperature and humidity
(even if higher temperature settings are
selected).
The air conditioning system is also switched on
automatically in defrost mode ( DEF) in order to
dehumidify the air.
Note: Water may collect unde rneath the vehicle
when parked. This is moisture expelled from
the interior of the vehicle by the air
conditioning system a nd is not cause for
concern.
Heated/climate seats and heated
steering wheel
The heated seats, climate seats and heated
steering wheel can be controlled from both the
Home and Climate menus on the touch-screen.
See HEATED SEATS (page 47). See CLIMATE
SEATS (page 48). See HEATED STEERING
WHEEL (page 68).

Climate control

Note: If the air vents are programmed to rotate,
they will rotate into th e fascia when climate
control is turned off.
External temperature
The external temperature is displayed at the top
of the Climate menu.
Smog/pollution filter
The smog filter operates in conjunction with
the air recirculation feature, to reduce
pollutants entering the vehicle.
When pollution is detected by the smog
sensor, air recirculation is selected
automatically, to help prevent pollution
entering the vehicle.
The sensitivity of the smog sensor can be
adjusted for personal preference or the sensor
can be switched off entirely, as follows:
1. Select Settings from the Climate menu.
2. Touch the + or - buttons to increase or
decrease the sensitivity of the smog
sensor.
There are five sensitivit y settings, indicated by
the five bars between the + and - buttons. To
switch the smog filter off, touch the - button
until none of the five bars are illuminated.
This icon appears at the top of the
touch-screen when the smog filter
is on. When the smog sensor is
switched off, this icon will not be displayed.
Air conditioning
on/off. When the air
conditioning is
switched off, Economy
mode is selected automatically. Economy
mode turns off the air conditioning
compressor and redu ces power consumed
by the climate control system. This will
reduce air conditioning performance.
Prolonged use of Econom y mode, may cause
the windows to mist.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONSFUEL QUALITY
Water in fuel
Petrol engined vehicles
WARNINGS
Petroleum gasses are highly
flammable, have a low flash point,
and are explosive, especially in
confined spaces. Avoid exposing the gasses to
any potential sources of ignition as the
resulting fire and expl osion may cause serious
injuries and/or death.
Only use containe rs specifically
designed for carrying fuel and always
remove them from the vehicle to fill
them. Failure to do so may result in spillage,
and cause a fire.
Switch off the engine when refuelling,
as it is both a source of extreme
temperatures, and electrical sparks.
The resulting fire a nd explosion may cause
serious injury and death.
Switch off any personal electronic
devices such as mobile phones, or
music players. They have the
potential to cause electrical sparks. The
resulting fire and expl osion may cause serious
injury and death.
Do not smoke, use a naked flame, or
cause sparks. The resulting fire and
explosion may cause serious injury
and death.
Do not overfill the fuel tank.
Overfilling may cause spillage when
the vehicle is driven. Spillage may
also occur if the fuel expands in high ambient
temperatures.
Any modifications to the fuel system
not specifically designed for this
Jaguar are prohibited. Such
modifications in some circumstances, could
result in a fire. All se rvice actions should be
entrusted to a Dealer /Authorised Repairer.The presence of any unusual fumes
(e.g. petrol or exhaust fumes) in the
passenger compartment and/or
luggage compartment, should be corrected
immediately by a Dealer /Authorised Repairer.
If you must drive unde r these conditions, do
so only with all windows fully open.
CAUTIONS
If the warning WATER IN FUEL is
displayed in the message centre, an
excessive amount of wate r has collected in the
fuel filter bowl. Seek assistance from a Jaguar
Dealer/Authorised Repairer to have the filter
drained, as soon as possible.
CAUTIONS
Do not use leaded fuels, lead substitutes
or fuel additives. Doing so can cause
damage to the engine, fuel and emission
control systems.
Only use high quality petrol, as using
lower quality fuels ca n cause damage to
the engine, fuel and emission control systems.
Fuel system cleaning agents should not
be used, unless a pproved by Jaguar.
Unapproved products may be harmful to fuel
system components on your vehicle.
It is the driver’s resp onsibility to fill the
vehicle with the correct fuel. If the
vehicle is filled with the wrong type of fuel, do
not start the engine. Call for Roadside
Assistance.

Fuel and refuelling

REFUELLING
Fuel filler
Filling station pumps used for diesel
commercial vehicles deliver fuel at a higher
rate than normal. The hi gher fill rate can cause
premature cut-off and ma y cause fuel spillage.
Therefore, it is recommended that only
standard light vehicle pumps are used. If the fuel cuts off as soon as the trigger on the
pump is operated, check that the correct fuel
has been selected. Immediate cut-off may have
been caused by the fuel guard system.
See
DIESEL MISFUELLING PROTECTION
DEVICE (page 180).
Fuel tank capacity
Avoid the risk of running out of fuel and never
intentionally drive the vehicle when the fuel
gauge indicates that the tank is empty. When
refuelling your vehicle after the fuel gauge
reads empty, you may not be able to add the
fuel quantity shown below, as there will be a
small reserve remaining in the tank.
All engines
WARNINGS
When refuelling ensure that all
windows, doors, and sunroof are fully
closed, particularly if young children
or animals are in the vehicle. Fuel vapour
contains harmful chemical compounds, some
of which may cause cancer.
Do not attempt to fill the tank to its
maximum capacity. If the vehicle is to
be parked on a slope, in direct
sunlight or high ambient temperature,
expansion of the fuel could cause spillage.
Filling station pumps are equipped with
automatic cut-off sensing, to avoid fuel
spillage. Fill the tank unt il the filler nozzle
automatically cuts off supply. Do not attempt
to fill the tank beyond this point.
CAUTIONS
Check the fuel pump information
carefully, to ensure that you are putting
the correct fuel into the vehicle. Filling a
vehicle with the incorrect fuel can cause
serious engine and fu el system damage.
It is the driver’s responsibility to fill the
vehicle with the correct fuel. If the
vehicle is filled with the wrong type of fuel, do
not start the engine. Call for Roadside
Assistance.

Vehicle care

CLEANING THE ALLOY WHEELS
Wash the wheels with soap and water, this
should be done more frequently when the
wheels are exposed to heavy dirt deposits, salt,
clay etc. If you are unsure how often to clean
the wheels in particular conditions, seek advice
from your Dealer/A uthorised Repairer.
Jaguar approved wheel cleaner should be used
to remove heavy soiling.
CLEANING THE EXTERIOR
Washing the vehicle paintwork
Remove heavy deposits of mud and dirt with a
hose before washing the vehicle.
When salt is used on the roads, wash the
vehicle immediately after encountering such
conditions. Clean undersid es and wheel arches
using a high pressure jet.
Wash the vehicle frequently using a sponge
and generous quantities of cold or luke warm
water containing a suitable car shampoo. Rinse
thoroughly and dry with a chamois leather or
synthetic substitute.
For best results, do not wash the vehicle under
strong sunlight. Always allow the vehicle to
cool down before washing.
Do not use a dry cloth to wipe dirty paintwork.
Dust and gritty substances are abrasive and
will scratch the paintwork. Remove dirt using a
cellulose sponge and plen ty of warm (never
hot) water. Rinse off with clean water and dry
using a clean, damp cham ois leather. Wash the
vehicle frequently.
CAUTION
Do not use non-approved, or acid based
wheel cleaners. These can damage the
wheel coating which may lead to corrosion of
the wheel rims.
CAUTIONS
Some high pressure cleaning systems
are sufficiently powe rful to penetrate
door and window seals, and damage trim and
door locks. Never aim the water jet directly at
the engine air intake, he ater air intakes, body
seals (doors, sunroof, windows etc.) or at any
components which may be damaged (lamps,
mirrors, exterior trim etc.).
Ensure that you read and comply with all
warnings and instruct ions supplied with
any cleaning products.
Never use cleaning products which are
not approved for use on vehicles.
CAUTION
Substances which are corrosive, such
as bird droppings, tree resin, dead
insects, tar spots, road salt and industrial fall
out, can damage the vehic le's paintwork. Any
such deposits should be removed as soon as
possible to prevent damage.
