System Operation
The passive start function prevents the vehicle from being started by unauthorized persons. It does this by immobilizing the
ignition, fuel and engine crank functions. The system is automatic and requires no input from the driver.
At the request of the CJB, the keyless vehicle module prompts each of the Low Frequency (LF) antennae to output a signal. When the Smart Key is in the vehicle cabin, it detects the LF signals and responds with a Radio Frequency (RF)
data-identification signal back to the keyless vehicle module via the RF receiver.
If the data received matches that stored in the keyless vehicle module it continues the passive start process by
communicating a 'Smart Key valid’ signal to the CJB via the medium speed CAN (controller area network) bus.
Once the CJB receives the authorization and confirms a response with an internal calculation, it passes the result to the
instrument cluster on the medium speed CAN bus.
Before the instrument cluster sends a mobilization signal to the ECMit will exchange encrypted data with: The electric steering lock mechanism to authorize unlocking the steering column.
The RJB to authorize fuel pump operation. Once the RJB receives the authorization and confirms the response with an internal calculation, it will enable the FPDM (fuel pump driver module).
The CJB to authorize the ignition status. If the drive selector is in the park position and the driver presses the brake
pedal and simultaneously presses the start/stop switch, the CJB interprets this as an engine crank request. Before the
engine crank request is allowed, the CJB compares a brake pressure signal received from the ABS module. The brake pressure signal is compared to an internally stored threshold value within the CJB. If the signal is greater than the
stored threshold value, a crank request signal is sent to the ECM on the high speed CAN bus.
Once these factors have been confirmed, and the vehicle is in 'Park', the engine can be started by pressing the brake pedal and
the Stop/Start button simultaneously.
NOTES:
If the keyless vehicle module fails to locate the Smart Key, the message 'SMART KEY NOT FOUND PLEASE INSERT IN
SLOT' will appear in the instrument cluster message center. When inserted the start control module will read the transponder
within the Smart Key. If the transponder identification is valid, authorization will be transmitted to the instrument cluster on
the LIN (local interconnect network) bus.
When the vehicle is delivered from the factory the passive start function is inhibited. In this condition the vehicle can
only be started by placing the Smart Key in the start control module. The system should be switched on during the Pre-Delivery
Inspection (PDI) using the Jaguar approved diagnostic system. For additional information, refer to the PDI Manual.
To ensure optimum long term reliability of the smart key the battery must be replaced with a brand new, unused battery. If a
used battery is installed the "SMART KEY BATTERY LOW" message may not be cleared. To avoid contamination of the contacts
the battery should be removed from its packaging and installed into the smart key while wearing gloves. To confirm that the
replacement battery is working correctly press the unlock button twice while holding the smart key outside the vehicle, then
enter the vehicle with the smart key, press the start button and confirm that the "SMART KEY BATTERY LOW" message is not
displayed.
Start Control Module Component Description
The start control module is used if the keyless vehicle module is unable to authorise the Smart Key.
If the keyless vehicle module is unable to identify the Smart Key, for example if the Smart Key battery voltage is low or there
is local RF interference, the transponder within the Smart Key can be read in the conventional manner. The driver will be
alerted to this by a chime and a message in the instrument cluster message center 'SMART KEY NOT FOUND PLEASE INSERT IN
SLOT'.
Once inserted the start control module will read the transponder within the Smart Key. If the transponder identification is
valid, authorization will be transmitted to the instrument cluster on the LIN bus.
NOTE: Inserting the Smart Key into the start control module will not charge the Smart Key battery. The battery is
non-chargeable and must be replaced if defective.

System Operation
The hinged panels are secured with latches and strikers. A remotely operated central locking system controls the locking and
unlocking of the door and luggage compartment latches. A radio frequency Smart Key allows the vehicle to be locked and
unlocked by pressing the appropriate handset buttons. Two levels of central locking system are available: remote central
locking and an optional passive entry system.
The passive entry and associated passive start system allows the driver to unlock and start the vehicle without using a vehicle
key in a door-lock or ignition switch. The passive entry system is an optional fitment while the passive start system is a
standard fitment on all vehicles. The passive start system is combined with the passive anti-theft immobilization system.
Refer to: Anti-Theft - Passive (419-01B Anti-Theft - Passive, Description and Operation).
Emergency access to the vehicle is provided by two concealed key barrels: one located in the front left-hand door handle and
one located on the underside of the luggage compartment lid finisher. An emergency, removable key blade is fitted into the
Smart Key.
Operation of either key barrel unlocks the vehicle but does not disarm the alarm system. The key barrels in the door and
luggage compartment lid are concealed by a plastic cover which can be removed by inserting the blade of the emergency key
into a slot in the cover.
Locking and unlocking conditions using the emergency key in the door key barrel:
If the alarm is not armed the vehicle can be centrally unlocked.
If the alarm is armed the door only can be opened and the alarm will be triggered.
The vehicle cannot be double locked or the alarm system armed using the emergency key.
The vehicle can be centrally locked and unlocked from inside using the interior handle release levers on the front doors only.
Central locking and unlocking can also be performed using lock and unlock buttons on the vehicle's fascia. The driver can select
locking options, single point entry or drive away locking for example, from a menu available on the touch screen.
Central Locking – Radio Frequency Remote System
The radio frequency central locking system, provides locking and unlocking of the vehicle from inside and outside of the
vehicle. The system is operated using buttons on the Smart Key, which transmits radio frequency signals to the central locking
radio frequency receiver.
The system provides additional security by double-locking the doors from outside the vehicle if the lock button, on the Smart
Key, is pressed twice within 3 seconds; this function is not applicable in North American Specification (NAS) and Japanese
markets.
Additional buttons on the Smart Key provide for the convenience operation of the luggage compartment lid release, headlamp
delay and panic alarm functions. A global open or close feature is also available in certain markets using the lock/unlock
buttons.
Passive Entry
On vehicles fitted with the optional passive entry system, the vehicle can be unlocked without the use of a key blade or
pressing buttons on the Smart Key. The Smart Key operates the passive entry system in addition to the passive start system.
Refer to: Anti-Theft - Passive (419-01B Anti-Theft - Passive, Description and Operation).
The passive entry system is controlled by the keyless vehicle module and five low frequency antennas. One antenna located in
each door handle and one antenna located behind the rear bumper cover.
When a vehicle door handle is pulled to the first five-percent of its travel and the Smart Key is within one meter of the handle;
the Smart Key receives the low-frequency signal transmitted from the keyless vehicle module. The Smart Key responds with a
radio frequency transmission of its authorization code. The radio frequency signal is received by the central locking radio-
frequency receiver and passed to the keyless vehicle module which checks and approves the code as valid. Once the handle is
