are closed and the Jagua r Smart Key is outside

two audible error warnings will sound.

vehicles fitted with double-locking, press the
lock button twice within three seconds. The
hazard warning lights will flash twice to
confirm the alarm state and, in some markets,

touch screen. See 61, VEHICLE SETTINGS .

feature which can, if enabled, automatically
arm the anti-theft system. Passive arming will
automatically arm the perimeter alarm system
60 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.
Passive arming will not lock the vehicle,
although access to the luggage compartment
via the interior or exteri or release buttons will
be prevented and the fuel filler flap will be
locked.
AUTOMATIC RELOCKING AND
RE-ARMING OF THE ALARM
Automatic relock and re-arm 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 1 minute, the vehicle will
automatically relock all the doors and the
luggage compartment and will re-arm the
alarm system.
Note: Automatic relocking and arming will only
relock and arm to the last locked and armed
state.
SENSOR FAULTS
If the security systems detect a fault with one
of the security sensors, 2 error tones will
sound from the alarm after the vehicle is
unlocked and disarmed. If this condition
occurs, please visit your Dealer/Authorised
Repairer for rectification.

Rear seats

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.

Occupant safety
26
Never place anything between you
and the seat belt. It can be
dangerous and reduce the
effectiveness of t he seat belt in
preventing injury.
5. With the seat belt correctly positioned,
place the metal tongue into the buckle
nearest to you. Press it in until a click is
heard. Ensure that all slack has been taken
up by the retractor and the belt fits tightly
across the hips.
To release the seat belt, press the red
button.
Note: When releasing the seat belt it is
advisable to hold the belt before pressing
the release button. This will prevent the
belt from retracting too quickly.
6. Use of seat belts during pregnancy:
Position the lap strap comfortably across
the hips beneath the abdomen. Place the
diagonal part of the se at belt between the
breasts and to the side of the abdomen.
Position the seat belt correctly for
the safety of the mother and
unborn child. Never wear just the
lap strap, and never sit on the lap
strap whilst using just the
shoulder strap. Both of these
actions are extremely dangerous
and increase your risk of serious
injury in the event of an accident
or during emergency braking.
Never place anything between you
and the seat belt in an attempt to
cushion the impact in the event of
an accident. It can be dangerous
and reduce the effectiveness of
the seat belt in preventing injury.
Ensure that the seat belt is not
slack or twisted. 7.
Tether strap anchorages. See 31,
INSTALLING TETHER ANCHORAGE CHILD
RESTRAINTS .
Child restraint anchorages are
designed to withstand only those
loads imposed by correctly 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.
If a child seat or restraint system
is to be fitted to the centre seating
position, the centre armrest must
be in the stowed position (folded
into the seat).
Note: A tether anchorage is provided for
the centre seat positio n. Do not use this
anchor position with an ISOFIX child seat.
SEAT BELT WARNING LAMP
The warning lamp will also flash in conjunction
with the Beltminder warning chime.
BELTMINDER
The warning lamp in the
instrument panel stays illuminated
when the driver’s or front
passenger’s seat belt is not
fastened (if the passenger seat is
occupied). The lamp should
extinguish when th e seat belt is
fastened.
The beltminder system warns the
driver (using the seat belt warning
lamp) when the seat belt of an
occupied front seat is not fastened
or is unfastened during a journey.
