gear selector in P (Park).
2. Secure the towing attachment from the
recovery vehicle to the front towing eye.
See TOWING POINTS (page 253).
3. Dock the Jaguar Smart Key and switch on
the ignition. See GENERAL INFORMATION
(page 132). 4.
Apply the foot brake and release the
parking brake.
5. With the foot brake st ill applied, activate
the Emergency Park Release (EPR).
See TRANSPORTING THE VEHICLE
(page 254).
6. The vehicle can now be towed a maximum
of 0.8 km (0.5 miles) at a maximum speed
of 48 kmh (30 mph).
7. Upon arrival at the destination, ensure
wherever possible that the vehicle is
parked on firm level ground.
8. Lower the Emergency Park Release (EPR)
lever, to cancel EP R and to re-engage P
(Park).
9. Apply the parking brake.
10. Switch off the ignition and remove the
Jaguar Smart Key.
11. Remove the towing attachment from the
towing eye.
WARNINGS
Ensure that the remote control
remains docked whilst the vehicle is
being towed. Removing the remote
control will engage the steering lock, which
will prevent the vehicle from steering
correctly.
If the engine cannot be run whilst the
vehicle is being towed, there will be
no power assistance for the steering
or brakes. This will result in greater effort
being required to steer or slow the vehicle, and
greatly increased stopping distances.
CAUTIONS
The vehicle should only be towed in a
forward direction with all four wheels on
the ground.
The vehicle should only be towed for a
maximum of 0.8 km (0.5 miles), at a
maximum speed of 48 km/h (30 mph). Towing
for a greater distance or at a higher speed, may
result in serious damage to the transmission.
CAUTION
Leaving the ignition switched on for
extended periods will cause the battery
to drain.
WARNING
Use extreme caution when detaching
towing equipment. Vehicle movement
is possible which can result in serious
injuries.

Telephone

GENERAL INFORMATIONNote: The vehicle telephone system is
designed to function with a wide variety of
Bluetooth® telephones.
As these telephones have a wide range of audio
and echo characteristics, it may take a few
seconds for the vehicle telephone system to
adapt and deliver optimum audio performance.
It may be necessary to reduce the in-vehicle
volume slightly, to fully optimise audio
performance and reduce echo.
In order to achieve th e best possible audio
performance, it may be necessary to select a
lower speed on the heat er blower and reduce
the system volume slightly, when using certain
mobile phones.
Telephone networks
The telephone network standard allows you to
use your telephone in many countries.
However, telephone rece ption may be poor or
unavailable in remote re gions. This may be due
to the inadequate power of the transmitter,
which results in a weak signal or incomplete
coverage.
What is Bluetooth®?
Jaguar Bluetooth® Connectivity was
developed to be used wi th a selected range of
mobile phones, from a number of different
manufacturers. Some mobile phones feature
different operating soft ware versions - the
correct version is needed for successful
integration with the Jaguar Bluetooth®
system.
Bluetooth is an intern ational standard that
allows electronic com ponents to communicate
with each other, using a short-range radio link.
Bluetooth eliminates the need for wires or
cables: Typically, devices can communicate at
a range of up to 10 metres (33 feet).
WARNING
Using the telephone near the car: Do
not telephone inside a garage or near
an open car bonnet. The air may
contain fuel vapours a nd the telephone could
produce sparks and start a fire.
Unusual ambient conditions: Switch
off the telephone in areas where high
explosives are being used. High
frequency remote controls could be interfered
with and cause an explos ion. Switch off your
telephone in areas with a high explosion risk.
This includes filling st ations, fuel storage
areas or chemical factories, as well as places
where the air contains fuel vapour, chemicals
or metal dust. The telephone might produce
sparks and cause a fire or explosion.
Medical equipment: The functioning
of cardiac pacemakers or hearing aids
may be impaired when the phone is in
use. Check with a doctor or manufacturer
whether any such devices you or your
passengers are using, are sufficiently
protected against high-frequency energy.
Always stow your mobile phone
securely. In an accident, loose items
can cause injury.
Using any hand-held appliance while
driving, can be dangerous and is
illegal in cert ain countries.
