STEERING COLUMN LOCK
The steering column has an electronic lock,
which locks and unlocks in conjunction with
the vehicle Locking/Alarm system. The steering
column lock also locks when the ignition is
switched off, after a time delay. If the steering
column lock malfunctions, Steering Column
Locked is displayed in the message centre. If
this occurs:

Gearbox
82
Do not allow the vehicle to remain
stationary with a drive gear selected and
the engine running . Always select P or
N if the engine is to idle for a prolonged
period.
ROTARY GEAR SELECTOR
The JaguarDrive selector elevates out of the
centre console when the engine is started, in
readiness for gear selection
P should be selected before switching off the
engine. However, it is possible to switch the
engine off with R, D or S selected - the selector
will automatica lly select P, while retracting into
the centre console.
Note: If the engine is switched off with N
selected, the system will wait for 10 minutes
before selecting P. This procedure is to allow
the vehicle to be conveyed through a car wash
only and should not be used for vehicle
recovery purposes.
In the event of a vehicle breakdown, the
transmission will automatically select P. This
prevents the vehicle from being towed on all
four wheels. Therefore, vehicle recovery
should only be undertaken by suitably qualified
personnel.
IF THE SELECTOR FAILS TO ELEVATE
If the JaguarDrive selector is obstructed
remove the obstruction and then start the
engine. The selector s hould elevate as normal.
If the selector still fails to elevate, even if there
is no obstruction, a faul t in the system is
indicated. The selector ca n still be used in the
lowered position, but be aware that it will not
automatically select P when the engine is
switched off. P should be selected manually.
The fault should be re ctified by a Dealer/
Authorised Repairer at the earliest opportunity.
MANUAL GEAR SELECTION
When the gear selector is in the D position,
manual mode may be directly accessed by the
single action of operating the steering wheel
mounted shift paddles.
If continued use of manua l mode is required,
the gear selector may be subsequently moved
to the S position to enter permanent manual
mode.
If the gear selector remains in the D position,
temporary manual mode will be held whilst the
driver is accelerating, decelerating, cornering
or continuing to request shifts via the paddles.
LIMP-HOME MODE
Note: The driver should be aware that the
vehicle’s performance will be reduced and
must take this into account when driving. Also
the use of the Jaguar Sequential Shift paddles
will be disabled. In this event, seek qualified
assistance as soon as possible.
In the event of an electrical or mechanical
failure, transmission ope ration will be limited.
P , R , N , D and S may still be used to enable the
vehicle to be driven to a safe area.
Some faults will cause the selector to be locked
in position until the ignition is switched off. If
the selected range flashes, it signifies that the
driver request cannot be engaged. Re-select N
and repeat the attempt.
If the transmission is st ill unable to select the
requested gear, contact your Dealer/
Authorised Repairer.

Adaptive cruise control

ACC MALFUNCTION
If a malfunction occurs during operation of the
system in cruise or follow modes, the ACC
system will switch off a nd cannot be used until
the fault is cleared. The message Driver
Intervene appears briefly and is then replaced
by the message Cruise Not Available . If
malfunction of the ACC or any related system
occurs at any other time, the message Cruise
Not Available will be displayed. It will not be
possible to activate the ACC system in any
mode.
Accumulations of dirt, snow or ice on the
sensor or cover may inhibit ACC operation.
Fitting of a vehicle front protector or metallised
badges may also affect ACC operation.
The ACC system relies on its radar to detect
objects and constantly scans ahead. If the
radar is unable to detect any objects ahead,
then ACC will be deactivated, the audible alarm
sounds and the message Driver Intervene
displays briefly. The message ACC Sensor
Blocked will then be displayed.
The same messages may also be displayed
while driving on open ro ads with few objects
for the radar to detect.
Clearing the obstruction fr om in front of the
sensor allows the system to return to normal
operation. If the obstr uction is present when
ACC is inactive (e.g. on initial starting or with
the ACC system switched off), the message
ACC Sensor Blocked will be displayed.
Tyres other than those recommended for your
vehicle, may have different sizes. This can
affect the correct operation of the ACC.
FORWARD ALERT FUNCTION
Limited detect ion and warning of objects
ahead, is provided duri ng ACC operation by the
ACC Forward Alert warning. The enhanced
forward alert feature additionally provides
warnings when ACC is not engaged; if an object
is detected close ahead, then the warning tone
and message will be issu ed. The brakes will not
be applied.
The forward alert system does not initiate any
action. The driver must take appropriate action
when the Forward Alert message is displayed.
However, the system monitors driver actions
(e.g. braking, steering or indicating) and may
not initiate the warning display if the
appropriate action has been taken early
enough.
Press the button to switch Forward alert on or
off.
When the warning lamp in the
instrument panel is on, Forward
alert is active.

INTELLIGENT EMERGENCY BRAKING
The system may not react to slow
moving vehicles.
The system will not react to stationary
vehicles, or vehicles that are not
travelling in the same direction as
your vehicle.
Warnings and automatic braking may
not occur if the dist ance to the vehicle
ahead is very small, or if the steering
wheel and pedal movements are large
(to avoid a collis ion for example).
IEB (Intelligent Em ergency Braking)
uses the same radar sensor as
Adaptive Cruise Control and Forward
Alert. The same performance
limitations apply, see 96, ADAPTIVE
CRUISE CONTROL OVERVIEW.
IEB is available at all speeds to automatically
apply the brakes if an unavoidable collision
with a moving vehicle in front is detected.
If there is an imminent risk of collision, an
audible warning is given. If the collision then
becomes unavoidable, the IEB system applies
the brakes at up to maximum pressure. After
IEB has activated, IEB System Was Activated
is displayed in the message centre and the
system is inhibited from further operation until
reset by a Dealer/Authorised Repairer.
IEB will function even if Forward Alert and ACC
are switched off. If the radar sensor is blocked,
by snow or heavy rain for example, or there is
a fault with the system, IEB Not Available is
displayed in the message centre. The vehicle
can still be driven and the braking system will
still operate, but without IEB. If the cause of
this message being disp layed is thought to be
other than a blocked rada r sensor, consult your
Dealer/Authorised Repairer.

10. Set the compressor switch to the on ( I)
position.
11. Inflate the tyre to a minimum of 1.9 bar
(26 psi) and a maximum of 3.5 bar
(51 psi).
•When pumping the sealant through the
tyre valve, the pressure may rise up to
6 bar (87 psi). The pressure will drop
again after approx imately 30 seconds.
12. During the inflation, switch the
compressor off briefly, to check the tyre
pressure using the gauge mounted on the
compressor.
•It should not take longer than 7
minutes to inflate the tyre. If, after 7
minutes, the tyre ha s not yet reached
minimum pressure, the tyre should not
be used.
13. Once the tyre has been inflated, switch off
the compressor. If desired, the engine may
be turned off after the compressor has
been turned off.
14. Remove the power connector from the
auxiliary power socket.
15. Remove the inflation hose from the tyre
valve, by unscrewing it as quickly as
possible (anticlockwise).
16. Replace the inflation hose protective cap
and the tyre valve cap.
17. Ensure that the tyre repair kit (including the
bottle and receiver caps) are placed
securely in the vehicle. You will need to use
the kit to check the tyre pressure after
approximately 3 km (2 miles), so ensure
they are easily accessible.
18. Immediately drive the vehicle for
approximately 3 km (2 miles), to allow the
sealant to coat the inner surface of the tyre
and form a seal at the puncture.CHECKING THE TYRE PRESSURE
AFTER A REPAIR
When driving the vehicle, if you
experience vibrations, abnormal
steering, or noises, reduce speed
immediately. Drive with extreme
caution and reduced speed, to the first
safe place to stop the vehicle. Visually
examine the tyre and check its
pressure. If there are any signs of
damage or deformity to the tyre, or the
tyre pressure is below 1.3 bar (19
psi), do not continue driving.
Consult a tyre repair centre or your
Dealer/Authorised Repairer, for
advice concerning the replacement of
a tyre after using a tyre repair kit.
1. Drive the vehicle for 3 km (2 miles) then
stop in a safe place. Carry out a visual
examination of the tyre’s condition.
2. Make sure that the sealant container
section is in its original position.
3. Screw the inflation hos e connector firmly
onto the tyre valve.
4. Read the tyre pressure from the gauge.
5. If the pressure of the sealant filled tyre is
above 1.3 bar (19 psi) adjust the pressure
to the correct value.
6. Ensure that the compressor switch is in the
Off ( O) position and insert the power cable
connector into the au xiliary power socket.
If the vehicle is in a well ventilated area,
start the engine.
7. Switch the compressor to On ( I) and inflate
the tyre to the correct pressure.
8. To check the tyre pressure, turn off the
compressor then read the pressure from
the gauge.
