3. Solar sensor.
The rotating air vents acti vate and rotate out of
the fascia when the engine START/STOP
button is pressed, provided the climate system
has not been manually switched off. Adjust the
volume of air usi ng the thumbwheels ( 1) and
the direction of the air using the direction

temperature is set to 21°C (70°F) and 20°C
(68°F) for the front passenger, the temperature
of the air supplied to the rear of the vehicle will
be approximately 20.5°C (69°F).

AUXILIARY POWER SOCKETS
The auxiliary power socket is located in the
cubby box.
GLOVE BOX
The glove box is opened using the
JaguarSense proximity sensor on the fascia
(arrowed). To open the glove box, place the tip
of your finger close to and directly over the
sensor, as shown in the left-hand inset of the

The sensor is able to distinguish between a
finger approach and an accidental finger rub
approach from a knee or other large items,
including being wiped for cleaning purposes.
Under these conditions, the sensor will not
react to the input and th e glove box will remain
closed.
Note: When the vehicle alarm is armed or Valet
mode is selected, the proximity sensor is
disabled, preventing the glove box from being
opened.

the operation of the prox imity sensor. If gloves
are worn, it may be necessary to touch the
sensor to open the glove box.

should be plugged into the power
sockets. Using any other equipment may
damage the vehicle's electrical system. If you
are in any doubt contact your Dealer/
Authorised Repairer.
