Towing
70
TOWING WEIGHTS
Do not exceed the Gross Vehicle
Weight (GVW), maximum rear axle
weight, maximum trailer weight or
nose/tongue weight. Exceeding any of
these limits could cause instability
and loss of control. See 176,
WEIGHTS.
Nose/tongue weight must be the greater of 50
kg (110 lb.) or 7% of the actual trailer weight,
up to the maximum tow hitch load.
Nose/tongue weight can be measured using a
proprietary brand of nose weight indicator.
If it is necessary to increase the nose/tongue
weight up to the maximum allowed, the vehicle
load should be reduced accordingly. This
ensures that the Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW)
and maximum rear axle load are not exceeded.
Note: When towing the maximum permissible,
Gross Vehicle Weight ca n be increased by a
maximum of 100 kg (220 lb.), provided that the
road speed is limited to 100 km/h (60 mph).
Note: When calculating rear axle loading,
remember that the trailer nose/tongue weight,
the load in the vehicle’s luggage compartment
and the weight of rear se at passengers must all
be added together. Towing weights - Australia only:
The
nose/tongue weight must be a minimum of
75% of gross caravan/trailer weight, up to a
maximum of 350 kg (722 lb.).
ESSENTIAL TOWING CHECKS
• The trailer should be parallel to the ground
when loaded and connected to the vehicle.
• When calculating the laden weight of the
trailer, remember to include the weight of
the trailer, plus the weight of the load.
• If the load can be divided between the
vehicle and the trailer, loading more weight
into the vehicle will generally improve the
stability.
• Ensure that all applic able regulations and
legislation are complied with when loading
and towing a trailer.
• Increase rear tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle to those for maximum loading
conditions.
• Ensure trailer tyre pressures are set to
trailer manufacturer’ s recommendations.
• If the vehicle is loaded to maximum Gross
Vehicle Weight (GVW), the nose weight is
limited.
• Ensure that a suitable breakaway cable or
secondary coupling is used. Refer to the
trailer manufacturer’ s instructions for
guidance.
Do not loop the breakaway cable
over the tow ball, as it may slide
off.
• Ensure that the tow ball is secure.
• Check the operation of all trailer weights.
Maximum
permissible towing weights
Unbraked trailers 750 kg (1653 lb.)
Trailers with
overrun brakes 1850 kg (4080 lb.)
Nose/Tongue
weight 75 kg (165 lb.)

IF THE ENGINE FAILS TO START
If the brake pedal has been pumped prior to an
attempt to start the engine, it may require
greater pressure on the pedal in order for the
engine to start.
If the Jaguar Smart Key is placed in the door
pocket, it may be outside the range of the
sensors when the door is open.
If the Smart Key fails to operate, Smart Key
Not Found- Refer to Handbook is displayed in
the message centre. To start the engine it will
be necessary to dock the Smart Key, as
follows:
1. Insert the Smart Key fully into the starter
control unit, as shown.
Note: When docking the Smart Key, it is
recommended that the emergency key
blade is left in place. The end of the blade
can then be used as a handle, to pull the
Smart Key from the control unit when
undocking.
2. Ensure the Smart Key is securely docked,
then press and release the START/STOP
button with the brake pe dal applied to start
the engine. 3.
To undock the smart key, ensure that the
gear selector is in the P position and the
ignition is switched off, then press and
release the Smart Key. The Smart Key will
eject from the st arter control unit.
Ensure that the ignition is switched
off before undocking the Smart
Key, otherwise damage to the
Smart Key may occur.
4. Remove the Smart Key.
If the engine still fails to start, seek qualified
assistance.

arise, then the following procedure
applies.
• Press and hold the engine START/STOP
button for 2 seconds, or;
• Press the engine START/STOP button
twice within 2 seconds.

engine will turn off (unl ess it is required to
support other vehicle systems). When the
brake is released and a drive gear is selected,
the engine will restart automatically.
To activate an automatic engine stop:
• Stop the vehicle from a speed greater than
4 km/h (2.5 mph) and apply sufficient
brake pressure to ensure the vehicle is
stationary.
• Alternatively, whilst stationary, select P
(Park) or N (Neutral).
To activate an automatic engine restart release
the brake pedal with D (Drive) or S (Sport)
selected.

Brakes
87
BrakesIMPORTANT INFORMATION
Do not rest your foot on the brake
pedal whilst the vehicle is in motion.
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 wi th the engine off,
but far more pressure will be required
to operate them.
If the red brake warning lamp
illuminates, safely bring the vehicle to
a stop, as quickly as possible and
seek qualified assistance.
Never place non-approved floor
matting or any other obstructions
under the brake pedal. This restricts
pedal travel and braking efficiency.
Driving through heavy rain or water can have
an adverse effect on braking efficiency. Under
such circumstances, it is recommended that
you lightly apply the brak es intermittently to
dry the brakes.
BRAKE WARNING LAMPS
Note: This warning lamp will also illuminate if
there is a fault with the parking brake. See 88,
ELECTRIC PARKIN G BRAKE (EPB).
ELECTRONIC BRAKE FORCE
DISTRIBUTION (EBD)
EBD balances the distribution of braking forces
between the wheels on the front and rear axles,
to maintain maximum braking under all vehicle
loading conditions.
For example; Under light loads, EBD applies
less braking effort to the rear wheels, to
maintain stability. Conv ersely, it allows full
braking effort to the rear wheels when the
vehicle is heavily laden.
A fault with the EBD system is indicated by the
red brake warning lamp and the message EBD
FAULT . The braking system will still operate,
but without EBD assist ance. Seek qualified
assistance to have the fault rectified.
EMERGENCY BRAKE ASSIST (EBA)
The EBA system measures the rate at which the
brake pressure increases. If the system detects
an emergency braki ng situation, EBA
automatically initiates fu ll braking effect. This
can reduce stopping distances in critical
situations.
A fault with the EBA system is indicated by the
brake warning lamp illuminating and
Emergency Brake Assist Not Available
displaying in the message centre. The braking
system will still func tion, but without EBA
assistance. Seek qualified assistance to have
the fault rectified.
EMERGENCY STOP SIGNAL (ESS)
ESS (Emergency Stop Signal) automatically
activates the hazard warning lights during
emergency braking to warn other road users
and reduce the risk of a collision.
If the parking brake
is released and
this red warning lamp illuminates
while driving and/or the message
Brake Fluid Low is displayed in the
message centre, check the brake
fluid level at the earliest
opportunity and top-up as
required.
If this amber warning lamp
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.
