Supplementary restraints system

Note: The general location of airbags fitted to
the vehicle are marked by the word AIRBAG.
Always contact your Dealer/Authorised
repairer if:-
• An airbag inflates.
• The front or sides of the vehicle are
damaged.
• Any part of the SRS shows signs of
cracking or damage, including trim
covering airbags.
Airbag operation
Airbags cannot deploy co rrectly if they are
obstructed. Examples of obstructions are:-
• Any part of an occu pants body in contact
with, or close to, an airbag covering.
• Objects placed on, or close to, an airbag
cover.
• Clothing, sun screens, or other material
hanging from grab handles.
• Clothing, cushions, or other material,
covering seat mounted airbags.
• Seat covers which are not approved by
Jaguar, or specifical ly designed for use
with seat mounted airbags.
• Luggage that intrudes into the area that
will be occupied by a deploying airbag
system.
This list is not exhausti ve and it remains the
responsibility of the driv er and passengers to
ensure that the airbags are not obstructed in
any way.
Deployment and deflation
In the event of a collisi on, the restraints control
system monitors the rate and direction of
deceleration. If required to supplement the seat
belts, airbags will be deployed as appropriate.
After operation, frontal airbags do not retain
pressure.
Front airbags
The front passenger’s and driver’s airbags are
able to deploy in two stages, depending on the
severity of the frontal impact. In a severe
impact, the airbags inflate fully to offer
maximum protection. In a lower severity
impact, less inflation ma y be required, so the
airbags inflate in a different manner.
WARNINGS
Phone systems should only be
installed by qualified persons familiar
with the operation of, and
requirements for, vehicles fitted with SRS. If
you are in any doubt, seek advice from your
Jaguar Dealer/Authorised repairer.
WARNINGS
For the airbags to operate correctly
the roof lining and door post trims
must be in good condition, correctly
fitted, and free from obstruction. Any damage,
wear, or incorrect fitmen t should be referred to
your Dealer/Authorised repairer as soon as
possible for examination and repair.
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.
