the steering wheel. Ideally, a minimum
distance of 254 mm (10 inches) is
recommended between the breastbone
and the steering wheel airbag cover. Hold
the steering wheel in the correct position
with your arms slightly bent.
• Adjust the head restraint so that the top of
the head restraint is above the centre line of
the head.
• Position the seat belt so that it is mid-way
between your neck a nd your shoulder. Fit
the strap tightly across your hips, not
across your stomach.
• Ensure that your driving position is
comfortable and enables you to maintain
full control of the vehicle.

Rear seatsREAR SEAT SAFETY
All vehicle occupants should be
seated correctly, and wear a seat belt
at all times when the vehicle is in
motion.
FOLDING THE REAR SEATS
All items carried in the vehicle should
be properly secured. See 68,
LUGGAGE ANCHOR POINTS.
Unsecured items can cause death or
serious injury in the event of an
impact or sudden manoeuvre.
When using seat belts to restrain
items other than occupants, ensure
that the belts are not damaged or
exposed to sharp edges.
Never allow passengers to travel in
the luggage compartment under any
circumstances.
Always take note of safety warnings
and labels attached to the rear seats.
The labels give advice on safely
folding and erec ting the seats.
Ensure that the removed head
restraints are stored securely. Never
leave them loose in the vehicle, as
they can cause serious injury or death
in the event of an accident, heavy
braking or sudden manoeuvre.

1. If children are to be carried in the rear seat
positions, it is recommended that the rear
door interior handles are disabled.
To change the child lock settings:-
•Open the door to access the child
safety lock.
• Insert the emergency key into the slot
and rotate a quarter of a turn, to enable
or disable the interior door handle, as
required.
2. To install an ISOFIX child seat (not
Australia):-
•Raise the head restraint on the relevant
seat.
• Locate the lower anchor bars which are
accessible through the gap between
the seat back and seat base. Insert the
protective guides supplied with the
child seat as shown. The insertion
positions for the guides are identified
by the ISOFIX labels.
• Slide the child seat locking mechanism
into the protective sleeves and onto the
anchor bars.
• Test the security of the child restraint.
To do this, attempt to pull the restraint
away from the vehicle seat and twist
the restraint from side to side. Even if
the restraint appears secure you
should always check the anchor points
visually to ensure correct attachment.
Note: Always ensure that if an upper tether
is provided, it is fitted and tightened
correctly.
3. To adjust the seat belt height:-
•Press to release the catch.
• With the catch depressed slide the
mechanism up or down to the required
height. Release the catch and ensure
the locking mechanism has engaged. The use of comfort clips or devices
that would create sl
ack in the seat
belt system, is not advised.
No modifications or additions
should be made by the user which
will either prevent the seat belt
adjusting devices from operating
to remove slack, or prevent the
seat belt assembly from being
adjusted to remove slack.
4. Draw the belt out smoothly, ensure that the
belt height, the seat , and your position on
the seat are correct.
Seat belts are designed to bear
upon the bony structure of the
body, and should be worn low
across the front of the pelvis or the
pelvis, chest and shoulders, as
applicable; wearing the lap
section of the belt across the
abdominal area must be avoided.
Seat belts should be adjusted as
firmly as possible, consistent with
comfort, to provide the protection
for which they have been
designed. A slack belt will greatly
reduce the protection afforded to
the wearer.
Belts should not be worn with the
straps twisted.
Each belt assembly must only be
used by one occupant; it is
dangerous to put a belt around a
child being carried on the
occupant's lap.
The occupants of the front seats
should not travel with the seat
back at more than 30 degrees from
upright. Doing so will reduce the
protection afforded by the seat
belt.

Occupant safety
27
If the vehicle is moving at or above 16 km/h (10
mph) and the seat belt of an occupied front
seat is not fastened, the warning lamp will
flash.
The flashing lasts for 10 seconds and repeats
every 10 seconds for approximately 5 minutes
or until the belt(s) is fastened or the vehicle
stops.
If the warning lamp re mains illuminated after
the seat belt(s) fastened, seek qualified
assistance as soon as pos sible. The vehicle can
still be driven with the warning lamp
illuminated, provided the seat belt(s) is
properly fastened.
Note: If a heavy object is placed on the front
passenger seat, it may activate the Beltminder
feature. It is recomme nded that the object be
placed in the luggage compartment or secured
using the seat belt.
Note: Although not advisable, it is possible to
disable the Beltminder function. Please see
your Dealer/Authorised Repairer to disable or
re-instate the function.
ACTIVE SEAT BELTS
The Active Seat Belt System enhances front
seat occupant support during extreme vehicle
manoeuvres such as understeer, oversteer or
high braking forces by te nsioning the seat belt.
Tension is released when the vehicle
manoeuvre is completed. The occupant may
notice a further slight in crease in tension just
prior to release of th e seat belt, which is
entirely normal.
In the unlikely event that tension is not released
after a manoeuvre is completed, bring the
vehicle to a safe stop. Unbuckle and re-buckle
the seat belt, which should then extract and
retract normally, before continuing with the
journey. Seat belts should be worn by all
vehicle occupants, for every journey,
no matter how short.
If the Active Seat Belts Unavailable message
and the yellow general warning symbol are
displayed in the message centre, contact your
Jaguar Dealer/ Authorised Repairer as soon as
possible. The vehicle is still safe to drive and
the Active Seat Belts will still function as
standard seat belts.
CHILD SEATS
For optimum safety, children should
travel in the rear of the vehicle at all
times; front passenger seat travel is
not recommended. However, if it is
essential that a child travels in the
front (not permitted in Australia), set
the vehicle seat fully rearward and
seat the child in an approved
forward-facing child seat. Do not use
a rear-facing child seat - an inflating
airbag could impact with the seat and
cause serious injury.
Do not use a forward facing child seat
until the child usin g it is above the
minimum weight of 9 kg (20 lb.) and
able to sit up unaided. Up to the age of
two, a child's spine and neck are not
sufficiently developed to avoid injury
in a frontal impact.
Do not allow a baby or infant to be
held or carried on the lap. The force of
a crash can increase effective body
weight by as much as thirty times,
making it impossible to hold onto the
child.

Child restraint anchorages are
designed to withstand only those
loads imposed by corre ctly fitted child
restraints. Under no circumstances
are they to be used for adult seat
belts, harnesses or for attaching other
items or equipment to the vehicle.BOOSTER SEATS
In a situation where a child is too large to fit
into a child safety seat, but is still too small to
safely fit the three point belt properly, a booster
seat is recommended for maximum safety.
Follow the manufacturer's instructions for
fitting and use, then adjust the seat belt to suit.
CHILD SEAT POSITIONING
Information given wi thin the table is
correct at the time of going to press.
However, availability of child restraints
may change. Please consult your

following table may not be applicable to all
countries. If you are in any doubt regarding the
type and fitment of child seats seek advice from
