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.

Passive arming
This vehicle is fitted with a passive arming
feature which can, if enabled, automatically
arm the anti-theft system. Passive arming will
automatically arm the perimeter alarm system
30 seconds after the driver's door is closed,
provided all doors, bonnet and luggage
compartment are closed, the ignition is
switched off and there are no valid Jaguar
Smart Keys inside the vehicle.
It will also automatically arm the perimeter
alarm system 30 seconds after the vehicle is
unlocked, if none of the doors or the luggage
compartment are opened.
Passive arming will not lock the vehicle,
although access to the luggage compartment
via the interior or exterior release buttons will
be inhibited and the fuel filler flap will be
locked.
Passive arming can be di sabled/enabled using
the touch-screen. See PROGRAMMING THE
REMOTE CONTROL (page 21).
Automatic relocking and re-arming of the

Automatic relock and re-a rm is a feature which,
if enabled, automatically relocks the vehicle
and arms the anti-theft system.
If the vehicle is in a locked and armed state and
the remote unlock button is pressed, but none
of the doors or the luggage compartment are
opened within 45 seconds, the vehicle will
automatically relock all the doors and the
luggage compartment a nd will re-arm the
alarm system.
Note: Automatic relocking and arming will only
relock to a centrally lo cked state and will only
arm to a perimeter alarm condition.
Automatic relocking an d re-arming can be
disabled/enabled using the touch-screen.
See PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE CONTROL
(page 21).
Sensor faults
If the security systems detect a fault with one
of the security sensors, two error tones will
sound from the alarm sire n after the vehicle is
unlocked and disarmed. If this condition
occurs, please visit your Dealer/Authorised
Repairer for rectification.

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.
