2009 JAGUAR XF Locking

Brakes
144

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
Brake pads
Brake pads require a period of bedding in when
new. Drive with extra caution for the first
500 km (300 miles) to avoid the need for heavy
braking.
Brake pad wear warning
When the brake pads are wearing low, the
warning message BRAKE PADS LOW is
displayed in the message centre. Arrange for
your vehicle to be se en by your Dealer/
Authorised Repairer at the earliest opportunity.
Wet conditions
Driving through heavy ra in or water can have
an adverse effect on braking efficiency. Under
such circumstances, it is recommended that
you lightly a pply the brakes intermittently to
dry the brakes.
ABS warning indicator
If this amber warning indicator
illuminates while driving and/or
ABS FAULT is displayed in the
message centre, drive with extra caution, avoid
heavy braking where possible, and seek
qualified assistance as soon as possible.
If this red warning indicator
illuminates while driving and/or the
message LOW BRAKE FLUID is
displayed in the message centre, check the
brake fluid level at the earliest opportunity and
top-up as required. See BRAKE FLUID CHECK
(page 206).
HINTS ON DRIVING WITH ABS
ABS (Anti-Lock Braking System) allows
maximum brake pressure, and thus maximum
braking efficiency, to be applied, and prevents
the road wheels locking. This allows the driver
to retain steering control during heavy braking
under most road conditions.
ABS optimises tyre to road adhesion under
maximum braking conditions, though it cannot
provide increased cornering ability.
WARNINGS
Do not rest your foot on the brake
pedal whilst the vehicle is in motion.
This may cause a light application of
the brakes, which can result in overheating,
reduced brake performance, and excessive
brake wear.
Never allow the vehicle to coast
(freewheel) with the engine turned
off. The engine must be running to
provide full braking assistance. The brakes will
still function with the e ngine off, but far more
pressure will be required to operate them.
If the red brake warning indicator
illuminates, safely bring the vehicle to
a stop, as quickly as possible. Seek
qualified assistance before proceeding.
Never place non-approved floor
matting or any ot her obstructions
under the brake pedal. This restricts
pedal travel and braking efficiency.
WARNINGS
ABS cannot overcome the physical
limitations of braking distance. Nor
can it overcome the lack of grip on a
road surface (e.g. aquaplaning on water).
Braking distance is increased on a
slippery surface. This applies to all
vehicles, even those fitted with ABS.
The driver should not be tempted to
take risks when driving, in the hope
that ABS will correct errors of
judgement. In all cases it remains the driver's
responsibility to driv e with due care and
attention, payi ng particular attention to the
effects of speed, weather, road conditions etc.

RUN FLAT TYRES
Run-flat tyres can be identified by the lettering
RSC on the sidewall. The tyre construction
utilises a specially reinforced sidewall, which
allows the vehicle to be driven at restricted
speeds, even when the tyre is depressurised.
Run-flat tyres can only be fitted to special rims,
constructed for ru n-flat tyre use.
A tyre pressure monitoring system is
mandatory when the vehicle is fitted with
run-flat tyres. See TYRE PRESSURE
MONITORING SYSTEM (page 234).
If the tyre has deflated, the vehicle should be
driven with caution, as handling characteristics
will be different compared to a fully inflated
tyre.
If the vehicle is fully la den with passengers and
luggage, the maximum di stance that can be
completed on a fully deflated tyre, is
approximately 80 kilo metres (50 miles).
Stop immediately if the tyre construction
begins to break down or if the tyre dislodges
from the wheel rim. Typi cally, this will be
accompanied by excessive vibration.
A tyre driven in a defl ated condition must be
replaced as s oon as possible. Vehicles fitted with run-flat tyres are not fitted
with a spare wheel or jacking equipment.
Therefore, run-flat tyre
s should be replaced
with the same type of tyre.
TOOL KIT
Tool kit contents
1. Jack.
2. Wheel brace.
3. Chock.
4. Locking wheel nut adaptor.
5. Towing eye.
Note: When returning the tool kit to its stowage
position, hook the T-bar of the clamp over the
jack handle, to se cure in position.
Note: The jack requi res occasional
maintenance. Examine the jack for wear,
damage or corrosion and lubricate the moving
parts.
WARNING
If a run-flat tyre is deflated, maximum
vehicle speed must not exceed
80 km/h (50 mph).
E91708
WARNING
After use, the tool kit should be
returned to the under floor storage
area and correctly stowed. Do not
leave the tool kit or it s components loose in the
storage area, as they can prove hazardous
during an impact or sudden manoeuvre.

Locking wheel nuts
Vehicles may be equipped with a locking wheel
nut on each wheel. These are similar to
standard wheel nuts, and can only be removed
using the special adaptor provided with the
jacking equipment.
1. Insert the adaptor firmly onto the locking
wheel nut.
2. Using the wheel brace, unscrew the wheel
nut and adaptor.
3. Return the locking wheel nut adaptor to the
correct storage position.
Note: A code number is stam ped on the side of
the locking nut. Ensure the number is recorded
on the Security Card supplied with the
literature pack. Quot e this number if a
replacement is require d. Do not keep the
Security Card in the vehicle.
Spare wheel location
The spare wheel and jacking tools are stored
under the luggage compartment floor panel.
To remove the spare wheel: Raise the luggage
compartment floor panel, hooking the strap
over the upper boot seal as illustrated.
Unscrew the Tee bolt, re leasing the retaining
clamp and hook.
Remove the tool tray from the spare wheel and
remove the spare wheel from the luggage
compartment.
Remove the jack and wheel nut wrench from
the tray.
Note: When refitting the Tee bolt, ensure that
the retaining hook ( 1) fits over the jack handle,
as illustrated.
If the vehicle is fitted with Tyre
Pressure Monitoring System (TPM
System). See
TYRE PRESSURE
MONITORING SYSTEM (page 234).
DSC must be on when the temporary
use spare wheel is in use.

Vehicle recovery

4.Using a flat-bladed screwdriver, turn the
locking device 90° counter-clockwise.
5. Apply the foot brake.
6. Use the strap to pull the EPR lever
upwards, until it latches in the vertical
position.
When EPR is activated, the JaguarDrive
selector will remain in P , but the selector
indicator and the gear display in the message
centre will both flash N (if ignition is on), to
indicate that EPR is active.
When vehicle transportation has been
completed, EPR should be cancelled, to allow
Park to be re-engaged.
Cancelling EPR
1. Using a flat-bladed sc rewdriver, release
the latch (arrowed).
2. Return the EPR lever to its horizontal
position.
3. Turn the locking device 90° clockwise to
secure.
4. Replace the trim pane l and close the cubby
box and twin cup holder lids.E96408

Digital audio broadcasting

If the digital radio signal is lost or the system
takes time to tune in to a channel, then the
display screen will show the message No
reception.
The problem may be caused by a temporary
problem, such as buildings or trees blocking
the signal, or it might be a problem with the
broadcast servic e operator. Try tuning to an
alternative channel and return later to see if the
problem has been resolved. If you are unable to
tune to any other channe ls, switch off the audio
unit and then try again.
Finding a channel
Briefly touch one of the channel seek buttons to
select the next availabl e digital channel. The
seek up button selects th e next channel, the
seek down button selects the previous channel. Note:
If the next or previous channel is in a
different ensemble, then there will be a pause
before the channel is located. The message
Searching... is displayed on the screen.
On the touch-screen, if channels have been
preset, select one of the six preset buttons to
start playing that channel. If no channel has
been preset, the button will display ---.
Finding a subchannel
If subchannels are available under the current
channel, the subchannel arrow icon ( 1) is
displayed at the top of the touch-screen and the
Subchannel button is enabled.
To access the subchannels, select the
downward-pointing arrow ( 2). Select the seek
buttons ( 3) to find the next/previous
subchannel.
To return to the channel tier, select the
upward-pointing arrow.
Note: When you select and play a subchannel,
the subchannel icon is replaced by SubCh.
Note: You cannot store a subchannel as a
preset.
Note: If you select the preset button for the
channel containing the subchannel you are
currently playing, you will be returned to the
channel.
