Fuel and refuelling
153
METHYL TERTIARY BUTYL ETHER
(MTBE)
Unleaded fuel containing an oxygenate known
as MTBE can be used prov ided that the ratio of
MTBE to conventional fuel does not exceed
15%. MTBE is an Ether based compound
derived from Petroleum, which has been
specified by several refiners as the substance
to enhance the Octane rating of fuel.
DIESEL ENGINED VEHICLES
Do not use RME (bio-diesel) except in
the case of those proprietary diesel
fuels which contain a mix of up to 5%.
Jaguar can accept no responsibility for
damage caused by using RME in
concentrations greater than 5%.
Use only high quality diesel fuel according to
EN590 or equivalent.
The quality of diesel fu el is variable, depending
on geographic location. Always use premium
or the highest quality fuel available in your
locality. High quality fuel ensures a longer life
for your engine components. Lower grade fuel
contains higher levels of sulphur, which is
detrimental to engine components. If low
quality fuel is used, li ght coloured smoke may
be evident at the exhaust.
Note: Jaguar vehicles ar e capable of running
with up to a 5% blend of bio-diesel, in
accordance with European Standard EN590.
Prolonged use of additives is not
recommended. Do not add paraffin or petrol to
diesel fuels.
If you inadvertently fill your vehicle with
petrol instead of di esel, do not attempt
to start the engine. Contact your Dealer/
Authorised Repairer immediately. Jaguar cars can accept no
responsibility for any damage caused
by running your vehicle with petrol or
vegetable oil in the fuel tank.
SULPHUR CONTENT
Your vehicle is fitted with a Diesel
Particulate Filter (DPF), the maximum
Sulphur content must not exceed
0.005%. Using an incorrect fuel will
cause serious damage to the DPF.
In some countries diesel may contain higher
levels of Sulphur, wh ich could cause damage
to the vehicle, if in doubt contact a local
Dealer/Authorised Repairer for advice.
RUNNING OUT OF FUEL
Avoid running out of fuel!
If the vehicle does run out of fuel, a
minimum of 4 litres (0.9 gallons) will be
required to restart the engine. The vehicle
should be left with the ignition on for 5 minutes
after refuelling before attempting to restart the
engine.
Note: If the vehicle does run out of fuel,
seeking qualified assistance is advisable.
WATER IN FUEL
If the warning WATER IN FUEL is
displayed in the message centre, an
excessive amount of water has
collected in the fuel filter bowl. Seek
assistance from a Jaguar Dealer/
Authorised Repairer to have the filter
drained as soon as possible.

Fluid level checks
171
If the message LOW COOLANT LEVEL is
displayed in the message centre, stop the
vehicle as soon as safe ty permits and top-up
the coolant reservoir with the recommended
antifreeze/water mix.
If the message centre displays the message
ENGINE OVERHEATING, pull off the
carriageway and allow the e ngine to idle for five
minutes and then switch off the ignition for ten
minutes. Switch on the engine and, provided
that the warning does not occur, continue your
journey, avoiding hars h acceleration. Seek
qualified assistance as soon as possible.
TOPPING UP THE COOLANT
Never remove the filler cap when the
engine is hot.
Antifreeze is highly inflammable. Do
not allow antifreeze to come into
contact with naked flames or other
sources of ignition (e.g. a hot engine)
- a fire may result.
Unscrew the filler cap slowly,
allowing the pressure to escape
before removing completely.
When travelling in territories where the
water supply contains salt, always
ensure you carry a supply of fresh (rain
or distilled) water. Topping up with salt
water will cause serious engine
damage.
Top-up to the upper le vel indicator mark
located on the side of the expansion tank. Use
only a 50% mix of water and antifreeze to
specification WSS M97B44 (coloured orange)
Extended Life Coolant.
Ensure the cap is tightened fully after top-up is
completed by turning the cap until the ratchet
cap clicks. Note:
In an emergency, if the approved
antifreeze is unavailable, top-up the system
with clean water, but be aware of the resultant
reduction in frost protection. Do not top-up or
refill with conventional an tifreeze formulations.
If in doubt consult a qualified technician.
BRAKE FLUID CHECK
Seek qualified assistance
immediately if brak e pedal travel is
unusually long, unusua lly short or if
there is any signific ant loss of brake
fluid. Driving under such conditions
could result in extended stopping
distances or complete brake failure.
Note: If the warning lamp illuminates or the
message is displayed while the vehicle is being
driven, stop the vehicle as soon as safety
permits by gently appl ying the brakes. Check
and top-up the fluid level if necessary.
Brake fluid is highly toxic - keep
containers sealed and out of the reach
of children. If accidental consumption
is suspected, seek medical attention
immediately.
If the fluid comes into contact with the
skin or eyes, rins e immediately with
plenty of water.
Brake fluid is highly inflammable. Do
not allow brake fluid to come into
contact with naked flames or other
sources of ignition (e.g. a hot engine).
If the quantity of fluid in the brake
reservoir drops below the
recommended level, a red warning
lamp in the inst rument panel will
illuminate and the message Brake
Fluid Low will be displayed in the
message centre.
