WARNINGS
The vehicle should not be parked over
long dry grass or other combustible
material, particul arly during dry
weather. As the heat ge nerated by the exhaust

sufficient to start a fire.
Before exiting the vehicle, ensure that
P park is selected and the park brake
applied. When exiting the vehicle,
ensure that the Jaguar Smart Key is removed
from the vehicle.

Alarm
40

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
alarm
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.
