Adaptive cruise control (ACC)

Detection beam issues
Detection issues can occur:
1.When driving on a different line to the
vehicle in front.
2. When a vehicle edges into your lane. The
vehicle will only be detected once it has
moved fully into your lane.
3. There may be issues with the detection of
vehicles in front when going into and
coming out of a bend.
In these cases ACC may brake late or
unexpectedly. The driver should stay alert and
intervene if necessary.
ACC malfunction
If a malfunction occurs during operation of the
system in cruise or follow modes, the ACC
system will switch off a nd cannot be used until
the fault is cleared. The message DRIVER
INTERVENE appears briefly and is then
replaced by the message CRUISE NOT
AVAILABLE . If malfunction of the ACC or any
related system occurs at any other time, the
message CRUISE NOT AVAILABLE will be
displayed. It will not be possible to activate the
ACC system in any mode.
Accumulations of dirt, snow or ice on the
sensor or cover may inhibit ACC operation.
Fitting of a vehicle front protector or metallised
badges may also affect ACC operation.
The ACC system relies on its radar to detect
objects and constantly scans ahead. If the
radar detects no objects ahead in ACC or follow
mode , then the ACC will be deactivated, the
audible alarm sounds and the message
DRIVER INTERVENE displays briefly. The
message ACC SENSOR BLOCKED will then be
displayed.
The same messages may also be displayed
while driving on open roads with few objects
for the radar to detect.
Clearing the obstruction allows the system to
return to normal operation. If the obstruction is
present when ACC is inac tive, e.g. on initial
starting or with the ACC system switched off,
the message ACC SENSOR BLOCKED will be
displayed.
Tyres other than those recommended may
have different sizes. This can affect the correct
operation of the ACC.1

USING WINTER TYRES
Winter tyres are more suitable during extremes
of low temperatures, snow and ice and will
considerably improve the vehicle’s handling
during these conditions.
Do not exceed 240 km/h (150 mph) when
using Jaguar approved winter tyres.
Winter tyres must be fitted to all four wheels.
Approved winter tyre sizes

USING SNOW CHAINS
Snow chains, of the recommended type, can
only be fitted to rear wheels. They should not
be used on temporary use spare wheels.
You should contact your Dealer/Authorised
Repairer for details and availability of approved
snow chains.
The maximum speed when using snow chains
is 50 km/h (30 mph).
Remove the snow chains immediately the
roads are clear of snow.
Ensure the fitting instructions supplied with the
snow chains are kept in a safe place, for
example, with this literature pack.
Note: When using snow chains, select
JaguarDrive Control Winter mode with DSC
switched on.
CAUTION
Tyres with an all season icon or M+S
have a level of winter performance and
need not be replaced.
Up to 240 km/h (150 mph)
Front 2.0 bar (30 lbf/in², 207 kPa)
Rear 2.3 bar (33 lbf/in², 230 kPa)
CAUTION
It is essential that only snow chains of
the recommended type are fitted, other
snow chains may cause damage to the vehicle.

CHANGING A ROAD WHEEL
If a wheel change is required, pull off the road
completely. Park on ground which is as level
and solid as possible. Ensure that the vehicle is
clear of any objects that will obstruct the safe
removal of the wheel. Switch on hazard
warning lamps and, where legally required,
display the warning triangle.
Regular maintenance of tyres contributes not
only to safety, but to the designed function of
the vehicle. Road-holdi ng, steering and braking
are especially vulnerable to incorrectly
pressurised, badly fitted or worn tyres.
Tyres of the correct size and type, but of
different make can have widely varying
characteristics. It is therefore recommended
that Jaguar approved tyres are fitted to all
wheels.
Temporary use spare wheel
Observe the following wa rnings before using
the wheel:
WARNINGS
Always ensure replacement tyres
have the correct rating and
specifications (e.g. load index, size,
speed rating) for your vehicle.
When using tyres other than those
recommended by Jaguar, do not
exceed the speed capacity
recommended by the manufacturer.
Wheels are extremely heavy. Take
care when lifting and particularly
when removing and replacing a wheel
in its storage position in the luggage
compartment.
CAUTION
Ultra high performance tyres. This
vehicle is equipped with an Ultra High
Performance (UHP) tyre and wheel
combination designed to give maximum dry
road performance with consideration for
aquaplaning resistan ce. UHP tyres have
performance enhancing soft rubber tread
compound. If driven aggressively they may
suffer rapid tread wear and a shorter life than
can be expected from other tyre types. This
wheel and tyre comb ination is more
susceptible to damage from road hazards.
Do not use this combination for driving on
snow or ice. High perf ormance tyres must be
replaced with winter tyres when weather
conditions dictate.
WARNINGS
Note the temporary use spare wheel
warning label. Adhere to instructions
on the label. Failure to comply can be
dangerous.
When a temporary use spare wheel is
fitted, drive with caution and replace
with the specified wheel and tyre as
soon as possible.
Do not fit more than one temporary
use spare wheel and tyre assembly at
one time.
The temporary use spare wheel must
be inflated to 4.2 bar (60 lbf/in²,
420 kPa) and cannot be repaired.
Temporary use spare wheel,
maximum speed is 80 km/h
(50 mph).

Wheel changing procedure
1.Ensure that all passengers are in a safe
place, clear of the vehicle.
2. Apply the parking brake and select gear
position P (Park).
3. Ensure that the jack is placed on firm and
level ground.
Observe the instructions printed on the jack.
Use the jack only for lifting the vehicle during
wheel changing and only us e the jack which is
stored in the vehicle.
Before raising the vehi cle slacken but do not
remove the wheel nuts. There are four jacking points on the underside
of the floor. Two indented, triangular indicators
are provided on each sill cover. These indicate
the location for the jack.
The simplest way to correctly locate the jacking
point is to feel along
the sill panel to the
triangular indentation and then fit the jack to
the body, not to the sill panel.
Carefully raise the vehicle by turning the jack
handle. Stop jacking the vehicle when the tyre
just clears the ground. Minimum tyre lift gives
maximum vehicle stability.
Remove the wheel nuts and the wheel.
To remove the centre badge use the plastic
tipped end of the wheel nut wrench handle,
push the centre badge from its housing from
the inside of the wheel.
Push the centre badge into the replacement
wheel. If the temporary use spare wheel is to be
fitted, keep the centre badge safely and fit it to
the repaired full size wheel when it has been
refitted.
Fit the spare wheel and loosely secure with the
wheel nuts.
WARNINGS
Do not attempt to lift the vehicle
unless the jack head is fully engaged
in the jacking point.
Ensure that the park brake is applied.
CAUTION
Ensure before raising the vehicle that
the jack is correctly positioned to avoid
any damage to the vehicle sills or sill panels.

Tyre pressure warning with speed
If the vehicle is to be driven at speeds in excess
of 160 km/h (100 mph), the tyre pressures
should be increased as stated in this handbook
or on the placard label. Failure to increase the
tyre pressures and driving in excess of
160 km/h (100 mph), will illuminate the yellow
warning telltale and display a text message
TYRE PRESSURES LOW FOR SPEED . In the
event of this warning be ing displayed, vehicle
speed should be reduced
Temporary use spare wheel and tyre
change
If the temporary use spare wheel is fitted the
system will automatically recognise the change
in wheel positions. The n after approximately
ten minutes of driv ing above 25 km/h
(18 mph), a message TYRE NOT MONITORED
will be displayed accompanied by illumination
of the warning telltale and the corresponding
block in the vehicle graphic.
The warning telltale will initially flash and will
subsequently revert to continuous illumination.
Extended use of the temporary use spare wheel
will produce an additional text message TYRE
PRESSURE SYSTEM FAULT .
This TPM system display sequence will be
activated at every ignition cycle until the
temporary use spare wheel is replaced by a
fully operational full size wheel and tyre
assembly.
Always replace the temporary use wheel before
having TPM system faults investigated. The
fault may well be rectified with the fitment of a
fully operational full size running tyre in lieu of
the temporary use spare wheel assembly.
Tyre changing
Always have your tyres serviced or changed by
a qualified engineer.
Care must be taken to avoid contact between
the bead of the tyre and the sensor during
removal and refitting of the tyre, otherwise the
sensor may become damaged and or
inoperable.
Sensors can be removed from the wheel by the
unscrewing of the va lve retention nut.
Replacement sensor
Should the sensor require replacing, it should
be carried out by a Dealer/Authorised Repairer.
A replacement sensor must be fitted to a
running wheel in order to be recognised by the
system. The vehicle needs to be stationary for
15 minutes during the se nsor fitment before
the system is ready to detect the new sensor.
The vehicle must be driven for a minimum of
fifteen minutes after the sensor change, and
then remain stationary for fifteen minutes to
activate full TPM system operation.
If the TPM system warning for any wheel does
not clear, even after ensuring correct inflation
and driving for more than ten minutes above
25 km/h (18 mph), you should seek qualified
assistance as soon as possible.
CAUTION
Valve stem seal, washer, nut, valve core
and cap should be replaced at every tyre
change. Valve stem seal, washer and nut must
be replaced if valve re tention nut is loosened.
Sensor units and nuts must be refitted using
correct torque figures and associated profile.
Damage to the vehicle may result if these
precautions are not taken.
