HEALTH AND SAFETY

WARNINGS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 1

The vehicle should not be parked over long dry grass or other combustible material, particularly during dry weather. As the heat generated by the exhaust and emission control systems may be sufficient to start a fire.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 2

Before exiting the vehicle, ensure that P park is selected and the park brake applied. When exiting the vehicle,

ensure that the Jaguar Smart Key is removed from the vehicle.

DATA RECORDING

Service data recording

Service data recorders in your vehicle are capable of collecting and storing diagnostic information about your vehicle. This potentially includes information about the performance or status of various systems and modules in the vehicle such as engine, throttle, steering or brakes.

In order to properly diagnose and service your vehicle, Jaguar service and repair facilities may access vehicle diagnostic information through a direct connection to your vehicle.

Event data recording

This vehicle is equipped with an Event Data Recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such as an air bag deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in understanding how a vehicle's systems performed. The EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle dynamics and safety systems for a short period of time, typically 30 seconds or less. The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record such data as:

  • How various systems in your vehicle were operating.
  • Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were buckled/fastened.
  • How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator and/or the brake pedal.
    • How fast the vehicle was travelling.
  • The rotational position of the steering wheel.

These data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances in which crashes and injuries occur.

Note: EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situation occurs; no data are recorded by the EDR under normal driving conditions and no personal data (e.g. name, gender, age and crash location) are recorded. However, other parties, such as law enforcement, could combine the EDR data with the type of personally identifying data routinely acquired during a crash investigation.

To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access to the vehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, other parties, such as law enforcement, that have the special equipment, can read the information if they have access to the vehicle or the EDR.

DISABILITY MODIFICATIONS

Occupants with disabilities which may require modification of the vehicle, must contact a Dealer/Authorised Repairer before any modifications are made.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 2

Jaguar will not accept any liability for death, personal injury or damage to property which may occur as a direct result of fitment of non-approved accessories or the carrying out of non-approved conversions to Jaguar vehicles.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 3

Jaguar strongly advise against making any modifications to the suspension or steering system. This could seriously affect the handling and stability of the vehicle leading to loss of control or roll-over.

The vehicle has been designed, built and tested, to cope with a variety of driving conditions, some of which can place the severest possible demands on control systems and components.

Jaguar parts are the only parts built to original equipment specifications and approved by Jaguar designers; this means that every single part and accessory has been rigorously tested by the same engineering team that designed and built the vehicle.

A full list and description of all accessories is available from your Dealer/Authorised Repairer.

Electrical equipment

WARNING

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 1

It is extremely hazardous to fit or replace parts or accessories, the installation of which requires the dismantling of, or addition to, either the electrical or fuel systems.

Always consult your Dealer/Authorised Repairer before fitting any accessory.

Fitting inferior quality parts or accessories, may be dangerous and could invalidate the vehicle warranty.

It is recommended that you always consult your Dealer/Authorised Repairer for advice regarding the approval, suitability, installation and use of any parts or accessories before fitting.

Keyless entry allows the driver to unlock and disarm the vehicle by simply operating the door handle. The Keyless Entry function operates in the following manner:

  • As a door handle is operated, the vehicle emits a search signal.
  • If the Jaguar Smart Key is within approximately 1.0 m (3 feet) of the operated door handle, the signal will be acknowledged.
  • The vehicle recognises the Jaguar Smart Key and disarms the alarm and unlocks the vehicle according to the current security setting (either Single-point or Multi-point entry). See USING THE REMOTE
    CONTROL (page 17). The hazard warning lamps flash twice as confirmation (in some markets an audible warning will sound twice).

Note: The Jaguar Smart Key needs only to be on the driver's person or in a non-metallic bag or briefcase. It does not need to be exposed or handled.

Note: If Single-point entry is the current security setting and a door other than the driver's door is opened first, then all doors will be unlocked. If the driver's door is opened, only the driver's door will be unlocked. All other doors and the luggage compartment will remain locked.

Note: If the vehicle is to be transported by road, rail or sea, the vehicle should not be double-locked or the tilt and intrusion sensors should be deactivated using the touch-screen. See PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE CONTROL (page 21). This prevents the alarm from sounding as the vehicle pitches and rolls.

Tilt sensor

The tilt sensor detects any change in the vehicle's inclination to the ground. When the alarm is armed and the vehicle double-locked, any change in the vehicle's inclination will activate the tilt alarm. This feature protects against unauthorised towing away or jacking-up of the vehicle.

The tilt alarm is disarmed when the vehicle security system is disarmed using the Jaguar Smart Key.

Intrusion sensor

The intrusion sensor is mounted in the roof console and detects any movement within the vehicle cabin via the use of ultrasonic sound waves. When the alarm is armed and the vehicle double-locked, any movement detected inside the cabin will activate the alarm.

Note: It takes approximately 30 seconds for the sensor to create an ultrasonic profile of the cabin and be fully armed.

The intrusion alarm is disarmed when the vehicle security system is disarmed using the Jaguar Smart Key.

Note: Ensure all windows and sunroof are closed prior to arming the alarm and double-locking the vehicle. Failure to do so may result in false alarms being sounded due to movements detected outside the vehicle.

Passive arming

This vehicle is fitted with a passive arming feature which can, if enabled, automatically arm the anti-theft system. Passive arming will automatically arm the perimeter alarm system 30 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.

It will also automatically arm the perimeter alarm system 30 seconds after the vehicle is unlocked, if none of the doors or the luggage compartment are opened.

Passive arming will not lock the vehicle, although access to the luggage compartment via the interior or exterior release buttons will be inhibited and the fuel filler flap will be locked.

Passive arming can be disabled/enabled using the touch-screen. See PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE CONTROL (page 21).

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 45 seconds, 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 to a centrally locked state and will only arm to a perimeter alarm condition.

Automatic relocking and re-arming can be disabled/enabled using the touch-screen. See PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE CONTROL (page 21).

Sensor faults

If the security systems detect a fault with one of the security sensors, two error tones will sound from the alarm siren after the vehicle is unlocked and disarmed. If this condition occurs, please visit your Dealer/Authorised Repairer for rectification.

WARNING

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 1

Do not adjust the seat while the vehicle is moving. Doing so could cause loss of vehicle control and personal injury.

The seat, head restraint, seat belt and airbags, all contribute to the protection of the user. Correct use of these components will give you greater protection, therefore you should observe the following points:

  1. Sit in an upright position with the base of your spine as far back as possible and the seatback reclined no more than 30 degrees.
  2. Do not move the driver's seat too close to 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 its highest point is level with the top of your head.

  • Position the seat belt so that it is mid-way between your neck and 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.

WARNINGS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 1

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.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 2

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.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 3

Care should be taken to avoid contamination of the webbing with polishes, oils and chemicals, and particularly battery acid. Cleaning may safely be carried out using mild soap and water.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 4

The belt should be replaced if webbing becomes frayed, contaminated or damaged.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 5

It is essential to replace the entire assembly after it has been worn in a severe impact even if damage to the assembly is not obvious.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 6

Belts should not be worn with the straps twisted.

WARNINGS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 1

Do not carry hard, fragile or sharp items between your person and the seat belt. In an impact, the pressure from the seat belt on such items can cause them to break, which in turn may cause death or serious injuries.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 2

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.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 3

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.

Seat belt safety

WARNINGS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 1

Seat belts should be worn by all vehicle occupants, for every journey, no matter how short. Failure to do so, will greatly increase the risk of death or serious injury in the event of an accident.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 2

Never wear just the lap belt or just the shoulder belt of a lap/shoulder diagonal seat belt. Both of these actions are extremely dangerous and may increase your risk of injury.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 3

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.

A slack seat belt offers a greatly reduced level of occupant protection in an impact.

WARNINGS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 1

If any damage, wear, cuts, defects or impaired operation are noted with the seat belts, the vehicle should be taken to a Dealer/Authorised Repairer for immediate attention. Do not use the vehicle if the seat belts cannot be operated correctly.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 2

When using seat belts to restrain items other than occupants, take care to ensure that the belts are not damaged, or exposed to sharp edges.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 3

Care must be taken to avoid contaminating the seat belt webbing and seat belt mechanisms with any chemicals, liquids, grit, dirt or cleaning products. If the seat belts do become contaminated, they should be replaced immediately. Contaminated seat belts my not operate correctly in an impact and cannot be relied upon.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 4

The use of comfort clips, or devices that would create slackness in the seat belt system, is not advised.

Seat belt checks

Note: If the vehicle is parked on an incline, the seat belt mechanism may lock. This is not a fault and the belt should be gently eased out from the upper anchorage.

The seat belts should be inspected regularly to check for fraying, cuts or wear to the webbing, and the condition and security of the mechanism, buckles, adjusters, and mounting points.

- With the seat belt fastened, give the webbing near the buckle a quick upward pull. The buckle must remain securely locked.

  • With the seat belt unfastened, unreel the seat belt to the limit of its travel. Check that it unreels smoothly with no snatches or snags. Allow the belt to fully retract, again checking for smooth operation.
  • Partially unreel the seat belt, then hold the tongue plate and give a quick forward pull. The mechanism must lock and prevent any further unreeling.

If any of the seat belts fail to meet those criteria, immediately contact your Dealer/Authorised Repairer.

SEAT BELT REMINDER

JAGUAR XF (2009) - SEAT BELT REMINDER - 1

If the driver's seat belt is not fastened when the vehicle is in motion, a chime will be heard and the seat belt warning indicator will illuminate. The warning chime and indicator will also be activated if the front passenger seat is occupied without the seat belt being fastened.

WARNINGS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 1

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 may increase your risk of serious injury in the event of an accident or during emergency braking.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 2

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 will reduce the effectiveness of the seat belt in preventing injury.

Position the lap strap comfortably across the hips beneath the abdomen. Place the diagonal part of the seat belt between the breasts and to the side of the abdomen. Ensure that the seat belt is not slack or twisted.

SEAT BELT HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT

E82904 1 2

1 2

WARNING

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 1

Correct seat belt adjustment is essential for safety and comfort.

Ensure that the height is correctly

adjusted and the mechanism is locked in place before driving the vehicle. Do not attempt to adjust the seat belt height once the vehicle is in motion. Doing so may cause you to loose control of the vehicle, or incorrectly adjust the seat belt.

  1. Press to release the catch.
  2. With the catch depressed move the mechanism slide up or down to the required height. Ensure that the locking mechanism has engaged.
    When correctly positioned the seat belt should cross the collar bone at the mid-point between the neck and end of your shoulder.
    Where possible, rear seat passengers should adjust their seating position to achieve the same seat belt position.

In the event of a collision, the airbag control unit monitors the rate of deceleration caused by the collision. This information is then used to determine whether airbags should be deployed.

Airbag deployment is dependent on the rate at which the passenger compartment changes velocity following the collision. The circumstances affecting different collisions (vehicle speed, angle of impact, type and size of object hit, etc.), vary considerably and will affect the rate of deceleration accordingly.

The Supplementary Restraint System (SRS) components include:-

  • SRS warning indicator.
  • Rotary coupler.
  • Airbag modules.
  • Seat belt pre-tensioners (front seat belts).
  • Restraints control module.
  • Crash sensors.
    • Airbag wiring harnesses.

The SRS is not designed to operate as a result of:

  • Rear impacts.
  • Minor front impacts.
  • Minor side impacts.
  • Heavy braking.
  • Driving over bumps and pot holes.

Therefore, it follows that considerable superficial damage to the vehicle can occur, without causing the airbags to deploy.

Airbags
1 2 3 4 3 E94099

  1. Driver's airbag.
  2. Front passenger airbag.
  3. Seat mounted side airbags.
  4. Curtain airbags.

WARNINGS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 1

High speed impacts may cause serious injury or death irrespective of safety features fitted to a vehicle.

Always drive with caution and consideration for the vehicle's characteristics, road and weather conditions.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 2

The airbag cannot provide protection in some types of impact, therefore seat belts should be worn at all times

by the driver and passengers in all seating positions.

WARNINGS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 1

Airbags inflate at high speeds, and can cause injuries. To minimise the risk of injury, ensure that all vehicle occupants wear correctly positioned seat belts, sit correctly in the seats, and position the seats as far back as practical.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 2

Sitting centrally and correctly in each seating position helps ensure that a gap is maintained between the side of the vehicle and the head and torso. This will aid inflation of the curtain and seat-mounted airbags.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 3

Airbag inflation takes place instantaneously. Not all airbags are designed to protect against the effects of secondary impacts. During secondary impact, a level of protection may be provided by a correctly worn seat belt.

WARNINGS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 1

Phone systems should only be installed by qualified persons familiar with the operation of, and

requirements for, vehicles fitted with SRS. If you are in any doubt, seek advice from your Jaguar Dealer/Authorised repairer.

Note: The general location of airbags fitted to the vehicle are marked by the word AIRBAG.

Always contact your Dealer/Authorised repairer if:-

  • An airbag inflates.
  • The front or sides of the vehicle are damaged.
  • Any part of the SRS shows signs of cracking or damage, including trim covering airbags.

Airbag operation

WARNINGS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 1

For the airbags to operate correctly the roof lining and door post trims must be in good condition, correctly fitted, and free from obstruction. Any damage, wear, or incorrect fitment should be referred to your Dealer/Authorised repairer as soon as possible for examination and repair.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 2

Do not allow passengers to obstruct the operation of the airbags by placing any part of their person, or any objects, in contact with, or close to, an airbag module. Airbags deploy at very high speeds and can cause serious injury or death if objects or occupants are within the area of deployment.

Airbags cannot deploy correctly if they are obstructed. Examples of obstructions are:-

  • Any part of an occupants body in contact with, or close to, an airbag covering.
  • Objects placed on, or close to, an airbag cover.
  • Clothing, sun screens, or other material hanging from grab handles.
  • Clothing, cushions, or other material, covering seat mounted airbags.
  • Seat covers which are not approved by Jaguar, or specifically designed for use with seat mounted airbags.
  • Luggage that intrudes into the area that will be occupied by a deploying airbag system.

This list is not exhaustive and it remains the responsibility of the driver and passengers to ensure that the airbags are not obstructed in any way.

Deployment and deflation

In the event of a collision, the restraints control system monitors the rate and direction of deceleration. If required to supplement the seat belts, airbags will be deployed as appropriate. After operation, frontal airbags do not retain pressure.

Front airbags

The front passenger's and driver's airbags are able to deploy in two stages, depending on the severity of the frontal impact. In a severe impact, the airbags inflate fully to offer maximum protection. In a lower severity impact, less inflation may be required, so the airbags inflate in a different manner.

Side and curtain airbags

To ensure that the side and curtain airbags are fully effective:

WARNINGS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 1

Do not allow passengers to obstruct the operation of the airbags by placing any part of their person, or any objects, in contact with, or close to, an airbag module. Airbags deploy at very high speeds and can cause serious injury or death if objects or occupants are within the area of deployment.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 2

Do not sit too close to, lean or sleep against the door trim. The side and curtain airbags could injure you as they deploy.

Do not lean out of the window.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 3

Only use approved accessories (e.g. seat covers).

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 4

Due to the function of the curtain airbag deployment, consult your Jaguar Dealer/Authorised Repairer, prior to installing any accessories in the upper environment/pillar trim area (e.g. hands-free telephone kits).

Side and curtain airbags are designed to offer increased protection for the torso and head in a side impact. The curtain airbags may deflate at a slower rate than the front or side airbags, to afford prolonged protection.

Airbag deployment effects

WARNINGS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 1

When an airbag inflates, a by-product of the gas generation may be released as small particles. It is possible that this may cause irritation and should be thoroughly flushed from the eyes and any cuts or abrasions.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 2

After inflation, some airbag components are at high temperatures. To prevent injury, do no touch the airbag components until they have cooled.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 3

In order to react with sufficient speed, airbags are deployed by a pyrotechnic device. Consequently, airbag deployment is accompanied by a very loud noise which may cause discomfort and temporary loss of hearing.

AIRBAG WARNING LAMP

JAGUAR XF (2009) - AIRBAG WARNING LAMP - 1

The airbag warning indicator is mounted in the instrument pack, and will illuminate as a bulb check

when the starter switch is turned on.

WARNING

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 1

If the warning indicator signals that a fault is present in the system, do not use a child restraint on the front

passenger seat. Doing so will increase the risk of death or serious injury to the child.

If any of the following warning indicator conditions occur, the vehicle should be checked by your Dealer/Authorised repairer immediately.

  • The warning indicator fails to illuminate when the starter switch is initially turned on.
  • The warning indicator fails to extinguish within six seconds of the starter switch being turned on.
  • The warning indicator illuminates at any time other than the bulb check, when the starter switch is on.

WHIPLASH PROTECTION

E93243

Both front seats are equipped with Active Head Restraints (AHR), which reduce the risk of neck and spinal injury (whiplash) in the event of a rear impact.

When activated, the head restraint moves upwards and forwards, supporting the occupant's head.

After activation, the whiplash protection mechanism automatically resets and does not need to be replaced.

Do not attempt to service, repair, replace, modify, or tamper with, any part of the SRS. This includes wiring or components in the vicinity of SRS components. Doing so may cause the system to trigger, or render the system inoperative, either of which may result in death or serious injuries.

Do not use any electrical test equipment or devices in the vicinity of SRS components or wiring. Doing so may cause the system to trigger, or render the system inoperative, either of which may result in death or serious injuries.

All of the following operations should only be carried out by a Dealer/Authorised Repairer, or suitably qualified person:-

  • Removal or repair of any wiring or component in the vicinity of any SRS components.
    • Installation of electrical, or electronic, equipment and accessories.
  • Modification to the front or sides of the vehicle exterior.
  • Attachment of accessories to the front or sides of the vehicle.

In the event of the vehicle being dismantled, airbag module removal and disposal must be carried out by a qualified person.

CHILD SEATS

WARNINGS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 1

Do not use a child restraint on a seat protected by an airbag in front of it. There is a risk of death or serious injury when the airbag deploys.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 2

Crash statistics show that children are safest when properly restrained in a child or infant restraint system that is secured in a rear seating position.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 3

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, 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.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 4

Do not use a forward facing child seat until the child using 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.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 5

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.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 6

Children typically require the use of a booster seat appropriate to their age and size, thereby enabling the seat belts to be properly fitted, reducing the risk of injury in a crash. Children could be endangered in a crash if their child restraints are not properly secured in the vehicle.

WARNINGS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 1

Do not use a child seat that hooks over the seat back. This type of seat cannot be satisfactorily secured and is unlikely to be safe for your child.

The seat belts fitted to your vehicle are designed for adults and larger children. For their safety, it is very important for all infants and children under 12 years of age to be restrained in a suitable child safety seat appropriate to their age and size.

Children are always safest when seated in a rear seating position.

If it is essential that a child travels in the front passenger seat, Jaguar recommends that the following preparations are made before fitting the child restraint.

  • Adjust the front passenger seat fully rearwards.
  • Adjust the lumbar support to its minimum support position.
  • Adjust the seat cushion to its highest position. If cushion front tilt adjustment is possible, adjust it to its lowest position.
  • Adjust the seat back to the fully upright position.
  • Adjust the seat belt adjustable upper anchorage to its lowest position.

In some countries, legislation prohibits children travelling in the front of a vehicle.

Ensure that you are familiar with the legislation in force where the vehicle is being used and are in full compliance.

WARNING

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 1

  1. 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 still 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.

Tether anchorage points (Australia only)
E94105

WARNING

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 1

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.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 2

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 position. Do not use this anchor position with an ISOFIX child seat.

Attaching tether straps

  1. Install the child restraint securely in one of the rear seating positions.
  2. Pass the tether strap over the seat back and beneath the head restraint.
  3. Attach the tether strap hook to the tether anchor point on the back of the seat. Ensure that the tether strap hook is facing the correct way. See illustration.
  4. Tighten the tether strap according to the manufacturer's instructions.

CHILD SAFETY LOCKS

Child safety locks are fitted to the rear doors to allow you to prevent accidental opening of the doors when the vehicle is in motion.

If children are to be carried in the rear seat positions, it is recommended that the rear door interior handles are disabled.

Note: For convenience, the rear door interior handles should be re-enabled when carrying adult passengers in the rear seat positions.

2 1 E94106

To change the child lock settings:-

  1. Open the door to access the child safety lock.

  2. Insert the emergency key into the slot and rotate a quarter of a turn, to enable or disable the interior door handle, as required.

The pedestrian protection system has been designed to reduce lower leg and head injuries in the event of a frontal collision with a pedestrian.

The bumper includes energy absorbing foam and plastics in its construction to reduce leg injuries and sensors that detect the collision with a pedestrian.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CHILD SAFETY LOCKS - 2

natural_image Illustration of a person standing next to a car with an arrow indicating airflow or damage (no text or symbols)

Deployment

During a pedestrian collision, the sensors initiate a bonnet deployment system that releases the bonnet hinge system and raises the rear edge of the bonnet by approximately 130 mm (5.1 inches).

This increases the gap between the bonnet and the components within the engine compartment e.g. engine, suspension etc. This increased gap creates a cushion to mitigate injury caused to the pedestrian.

The bonnet deployment system is active only when the ignition is on and the vehicle is driven between the speeds of approximately 20 km/h (12 mph) and 45 km/h (28 mph).

AFTER DEPLOYMENT OF THE PEDESTRIAN PROTECTION SYSTEM

CAUTION

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTION - 1

Do not attempt to open the bonnet if the pedestrian protection system has been deployed.

The vehicle must be stopped as soon as it is safe to do so.

The hazard warning lamps will be activated and can only be switched off by pressing the engine START/STOP button to turn the engine off and on again.

A warning message CHECK PEDESTRIAN SYSTEM will appear on the message centre and the vehicle should be transported to the nearest Dealer/Authorised Repairer. The vehicle must not be driven when the bonnet has been deployed. See Vehicle recovery (page 253).

Note: If the warning message CHECK PEDESTRIAN SYSTEM appears in the message centre when the bonnet has not been deployed, the vehicle should be taken to the nearest Dealer/Authorised Repairer immediately. It can be driven.

If any significant damage occurs to the front bumper it should be inspected by a Dealer/Authorised Repairer as soon as possible.

LIGHTING CONTROL

Note: If the ignition system is switched off and the lamps are left on, the message centre will display LIGHTS ON.

The exterior lamps are controlled by the left-hand column stalk switch.

The rotary collar on the stalk has three positions for turning the exterior lamps on or off and positions for autolamps and exit delay.

Off

TRIP OFF AUTO E91137

All exterior lamps off (except vehicles provided with daylight running lamps).

Side lamps

TRIP OFF AUTO E91138

Switches on the side lamps, tail, number plate and any other marker lamps required by local legislation. The instrument panel will also be lit.

Headlamps

OFF TRIP AUTO E91139

Select this position to switch on the headlamps.

OFF TRIP AUTO E91140

Daylight running lamps

In certain countries it is a legal requirement for the lamps to be on during the hours of daylight.

With the rotary collar in the OFF position, low beam headlamps, side lamps, tail, number plate lamps and, where fitted, side marker lamps will switch on automatically with the following conditions:

• The ignition is on (market dependent).
• The vehicle gear selector out of park.
• The park brake is not applied (is released).

Condensation

In certain circumstances, misting may occur on the inside of a lamp lens. This is caused by natural changes in environmental conditions. This misting is not detrimental to lamp performance and will clear during normal usage.

AUTOLAMPS

OFF TRIP AUTO E91142

A light sensor, mounted on the front of the fascia, monitors exterior light levels and automatically switches the side lamps and low beam headlamps on or off.

The ignition system must be on for full automatic light operation.

When light fades towards dusk, the side lamps and headlamps will switch on automatically.

At dawn, as light increases, the side lamps and headlamps switch off automatically.

Do not cover the sensor and keep the windscreen clean. Obstructing the light in this area of the sensor may lead to unwanted operation of the side lamps and headlamps.

Note: Low exterior light levels, caused by adverse weather conditions, may also cause the autolamp system to switch on the side and headlamps.

Windscreen wiper detection

This function only operates when autolamps is selected. The side lamps and headlamps will switch on automatically if the windscreen wipers are switched on for 20 seconds or more. Once the windscreen wipers are switched off, the side lamps and headlamps will automatically switch off two minutes later.

Exit delay

TRIP AUTO AUTO JAG0924

Three settings on the rotary collar set the time that the headlamps will remain on after the driver's door has closed:

  1. 30 seconds.
  2. 60 seconds.
  3. 120 seconds.

The message centre displays the selected delay time (e.g. AUTOLAMP DELAY 0:60) or displays AUTOLAMP DELAY OFF when the autolamp delay function has been turned off.

Note: If the lamp switch rotary collar is in the AUTO position there will be no exit delay and the headlamps will extinguish when the ignition system is turned off.

REAR FOG LAMPS

JAG1332

Rear fog lamps will only operate when headlamp dipped beam or Auto lamps are selected. Press the rear fog lamp button to switch on, press again to switch off.

HAZARD WARNING FLASHERS

E94710

BLIND SPOT MONITOR

WARNINGS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 1

The Blind Spot Monitor (BSM) system is a supplement to, not a replacement for, a safe driving style and use of the exterior and rear-view mirrors. It remains the driver's responsibility to detect other vehicles, and their relative distance and speed, when deciding whether or not it is safe to change lanes.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 2

Please note that BSM may not be able to give adequate warning of vehicles approaching very quickly from behind les that are being overtaken rapidly.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 3

The radar sensors may be impaired by rain, snow or road spray. This may affect the system's ability to reliably detect a vehicle/object within the blind spot. In such conditions, take extra care when changing lanes.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 4

BSM may not be able to detect all vehicles and may also detect objects, such as roadside barriers, etc.

CAUTIONS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTIONS - 1

Ensure that the warning indicators in the exterior mirrors are not obscured by stickers or other objects.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTIONS - 2

Do not attach stickers or objects to the rear bumpers, that may interfere with the radar sensors.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTIONS - 3

natural_image Top-down line drawing of four cars on a road with a shaded intersection area (no text or symbols)

The Blind Spot Monitor (BSM) system monitors a zone that covers the area adjacent to the vehicle, that is not easily visible by the driver and is designed to identify any object overtaking the vehicle. The system uses a radar on each side of the vehicle to identify any overtaking vehicle/object within the blind spot area of the vehicle, while disregarding other objects which may be stationary or travelling in the opposite direction, etc.

The radar monitors the area extending from the exterior mirror rearwards, to approximately 7 metres (23 feet) behind the rear wheels, and up to 2.5 metres (8.2 feet) from the side of the vehicle (the width of a typical carriageway lane).

Note: This radar sensor is approved in all RTTE countries.

Note: The system covers an area of a fixed lane width. If the lanes are narrower than a typical carriageway lane, objects travelling in non-adjacent lanes may be detected.

BSM automatically switches on and becomes active when the vehicle is travelling at greater than 16 km/h (10 mph) in a forward drive gear. When the system initiates, it performs a self-check, during which the warning icons in the mirrors illuminate alternately for a short period of time.

BSM is designed to work most effectively when driving on multi-lane highways.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTIONS - 4

If an object is identified by the system as being an overtaking vehicle/object, an amber warning icon (1) illuminates in the relevant exterior mirror, to alert the driver that there is a potential hazard in the vehicle's blind spot and therefore, that a lane change might be dangerous.

Note: If an overtaking vehicle is detected on both sides of the vehicle simultaneously, the warning icons in both mirrors will illuminate.

Note: BSM is automatically turned off when reverse (R) gear is selected, when the vehicle is in park (P), the vehicle is travelling below 16 km/h (10 mph) and also when the electrical connector for the trailer socket is plugged in on vehicles with a factory-fitted towing bracket. When in these conditions, an amber warning indicator within the exterior mirror is displayed.

Sensor blockage

The BSM system will automatically disable if either of the sensors become completely obscured, an amber warning indicator dot (2) is displayed in the exterior mirror and the message BSM sensor blocked appears in the message centre.

Note: Blockage testing is only initiated when vehicle speed is above 32 km/h (20 mph) and will take at least two minutes of accumulated time travelling above this speed, to determine that the sensor is blocked.

If the sensors become blocked, then please check that there is nothing obscuring the rear bumper and that it is clear from ice, frost and dirt.

System fault

If a fault with one of the radar sensors is detected, an amber warning indicator dot is displayed in the exterior mirror and the message BSM not available is displayed in the message centre.

Note: Even if the detected fault only affects the radar sensor on one side of the vehicle, the whole system is disabled. If the fault is temporary, the system will operate correctly once the engine has been switched off and then on again.

If a fault in the system occurs, consult your Dealer/Authorised Repairer.

CAUTION

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTION - 1

This device may suffer from interference if operated in the vicinity of a mobile or fixed station transmitter. This interference is likely to affect the hand-held transmitter as well as the in-car transceiver.

The door transceiver is located in the rear-view mirror. It can be programmed to transmit the radio frequencies of up to three different transmitters, which can be used to activate garage doors, entry gates, home lighting, security systems or other radio frequency operated devices.

Although this section mainly describes the procedures for a garage door opener, it also equally applies to the previously mentioned applications.

In some countries, this feature is also known as the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver.

For further information, see Information and Assistance later in this section.

Before programming

CAUTION

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTION - 1

When programming a device that may require you to press and re-press the hand-held transmitter (cycle), unplug the device during the cycling process to prevent possible motor failure.

For best results, fit a new battery to the hand-held transmitter of the garage door opener (or other device) before programming. If your garage door opener receiver (located in the garage) is equipped with an antenna, ensure that the antenna is hanging straight down.

To erase all programming

For first time programming, ensure that the engine is switched off:

  1. Ensure that the ignition system is in convenience mode.
  2. Press and hold the two outer buttons on the transceiver in the rear-view mirror. Keep the buttons pressed until the indicator lamp begins to flash (this will take approximately 20 seconds), then release the buttons.

All memories in the garage door opener have now been cleared.

Note: Do not perform this procedure when programming the additional garage door opener buttons.

Also in very cold conditions, expect engine cranking times to increase.

Engine block heaters

CAUTION

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTION - 1

The fitting of an engine block heater does not eliminate the need for antifreeze.

Engines are more difficult to start when the ambient temperature is very low. In geographical areas where temperatures below -10^ ( 14^ ) are experienced frequently, it is advisable to fit an engine block heater. The block heater will have an insulated connector at the front of the vehicle, which is connected to a mains supply using a suitable extension cable. The heater can remain in use overnight if required. Typically, an engine block heater will use between 400W and 1000W per hour.

For further information consult your Jaguar Dealer/Authorised Repairer.

If the engine fails to start

When pressing the engine START/STOP button to start the engine, if the security status indicator lamp on the top surface of the instrument panel remains flashing, a fault condition is indicated. Seek qualified assistance as soon as possible.

Note: If the Jaguar Smart Key is placed in the door pocket, it may be outside the range of the sensors when the door is opened.

Note: If the fuel system inertia switch has tripped, the ignition circuit will be isolated. See FUEL CUT-OFF (page 177).

Petrol engines

If the engine persistently fails to start, press the START/STOP button (without applying the brake pedal) to return the ignition to convenience mode. Slowly depress the accelerator pedal fully, hold it in this position and press the START/STOP button with the brake pedal applied, the engine will start to crank.

If the engine still fails to start, consult your Dealer/Authorised Repairer.

SWITCHING OFF THE ENGINE

WARNING

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 1

Never switch off the engine when the vehicle is in motion.

With the gear selector in position P, press the engine START/STOP button. The engine will stop and the ignition system will return to convenience mode. The audio, telephone and touch-screen systems will revert to stand-by mode and the JaguarDrive selector will retract into the centre console. Pressing the START/STOP button again (without pressing the brake pedal) will activate the systems.

DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER (DPF)

The Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) forms part of the emissions reduction system fitted to your vehicle. The DPF will remove a high proportion of the harmful carbon microspheres (soot) before they leave the exhaust. It achieves this by filtering out the particles, which are then stored until they are burnt away and the filter is emptied.

Regeneration

CAUTION

The regeneration procedure produces high temperatures in the DPF. Heat can be felt radiating from beneath the vehicle, which is normal and not a cause for concern. However, the vehicle should not be parked over combustible material, particularly during dry weather. The heat generated could be sufficient to start a fire when in close proximity to combustible material such as long dry grass, paper etc.

Unlike a normal filter which requires periodic replacement, the DPF has been designed to regenerate, or clean itself, to maintain operating efficiency. This regeneration process takes place automatically in most cases. However, some unfavourable driving conditions may mean that the regeneration process must be initiated deliberately by the driver.

Warning indicators and messages

CAUTION

Failure to take the appropriate action when a warning message appears, may result in damage to the engine and DPF system, increased vehicle emissions and costly repairs.

If regeneration cannot be achieved automatically by the system, due to short journeys for example, the driver will be notified via a warning indicator or message.

DPF FULL

If this message appears in the message centre (with a red backlight), the vehicle should be taken to your Dealer/Authorised Repairer as soon as possible.

DPF FULL SEE HANDBOOK

If this message appears in the message centre (with an amber backlight), the driver should carry out the DPF regeneration procedure that follows, as soon as possible.

Regeneration procedure

If the warning DPF FULL SEE HANDBOOK appears in the message centre, carry out the following procedure as soon as possible.

Note: At all times during this procedure you should observe all relevant speed limits, laws and regulations. Always take account of traffic and weather conditions and drive with consideration for other road users.

  1. Drive the vehicle until the engine reaches normal operating temperature. The engine should not be left idling to achieve working temperature.
  2. Drive the vehicle for a further twenty minutes, keeping the vehicle at a steady speed between 75 km/h (45 mph) and 120 km/h (75 mph).

Keeping a constant speed enables the DPF to regenerate more efficiently. It is therefore recommended that Cruise control is used to achieve this, if possible.

  1. If regeneration is successful, the warning message will extinguish. If the message remains, repeat the process.

If the warning message fails to extinguish after 60 minutes of driving, contact your Dealer/Authorised Repairer for assistance.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION

CAUTIONS

Never select the Park (P) position whilst the vehicle is in motion. Doing so may cause serious damage to the transmission.
Never select the Reverse (R) position whilst the vehicle is in forward motion. Doing so may cause serious damage to the transmission.
Never select a forward gear whilst the vehicle is in rearward motion. Doing so may cause serious damage to the transmission.
Do not rev the engine or allow it to run above normal idle speed while selecting D or R, or while the vehicle is stationary with any gear selected.
Do not allow the vehicle to remain stationary for any length of time, with a gear selected and the engine running. Always select P or N if the engine is to idle for a prolonged period.

The transmission system is designed to operate in two distinct modes, conventional automatic and Jaguar Sequential Shift.

The automatic modes are accessed by the gear selector:

• D - Drive - automatic shifting.
• S - Sport - sport automatic shifting.

The Jaguar Sequential Shift mode enables sequential manual gear selection in D (temporary) and S (permanent) modes, via the steering wheel mounted paddles.

Note: In addition to the standard shift patterns available in D and S, the transmission will adapt to differing conditions by modifying shift points, based upon vehicle sensor information for road gradient, cornering, braking pressure and driving style.

JaguarDrive selector
START STOP PRN DSC START STOP PRNDS E94119

The JaguarDrive selector elevates out of the centre console when the engine is started, in readiness for gear selection. Press the brake pedal, then rotate the control to select the chosen gear (P, R, N or D) or, from D, press down on the control and rotate to select S (Sport).

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 automatically 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.

To prevent the transmission from automatically selecting P (e.g. for vehicle recovery purposes), it is necessary to activate the Emergency Park Release.

See TRANSPORTING THE VEHICLE (page 254).

Selector positions

P - Park: Use when parked. In this position the transmission is locked, do not attempt to select P if the vehicle is moving.

Note: P will be selected automatically when the engine is switched off.

R - Reverse: Do not select if the vehicle is moving forward.

N - Neutral: Disconnects drive to the wheels. Use the parking brake when stopping temporarily with N selected.

D - Drive: Gear changing is automatic for all six forward gears. The shift points are determined by accelerator pedal position and road speed, to provide the best balance of performance, refinement and fuel economy, for the large majority of driving conditions.

S - Sport: Gear changing is automatic for all six forward gears, with modified gear shift points to maximise the vehicle response in demanding driving conditions. This mode is not suitable for town or highway cruising.

Note: Both D and S positions also offer additional features, which are listed under Automatic mode and Sport mode, later in this section.

Stationary vehicle

When the vehicle is stationary, the selector may be left in D or S, unless the vehicle is to be parked. When stopping for extended periods, either select P or apply the parking brake and select N.

Selector interlock

The transmission is equipped with an interlock, to prevent inadvertent selection of a drive gear (D, S or R) from the P or N positions. To release the interlock to select a drive gear, press the brake pedal while making the selection.

Ensure the required driving range has selected prior to releasing the brake pedal. The range indicator (R, D or S) on the selector and message centre displays, will illuminate continuously to confirm selection.

Note: If the brake pedal is released too early during selector rotation from P or N to a driving range (R, D or S), then the selected range will not be engaged. The selected range will flash on the selector and message centre displays.

To obtain the selected range, press the brake pedal, select P or N and reselect the required range, ensuring the brake pedal is depressed.

If N is selected for less than 2 seconds (e.g. when moving the selector between R and D), the interlock will not activate and the brake pedal will not need to be pressed.

Note: The interlock is deactivated when the vehicle is travelling at more than 5 km/h (3 mph).

If the selector fails to elevate

If the JaguarDrive selector is obstructed when the engine is started, it may be prevented from elevating out of the centre console. If this occurs, turn off the ignition, ensure that the selector is not obstructed and then start the engine. The selector should elevate as normal. If the selector still fails to elevate, even if there is no obstruction, a fault in the system is indicated. The selector can still be used in the lowered position, but be aware that it will not automatically select P when the engine is switched off, so P should be selected manually. The fault should be rectified by a Dealer/Authorised Repairer at the earliest opportunity.

Starting

In the unlikely event that the selector did not rotate back to P when the vehicle was previously switched off, and the selector has remained in R, D or S, it will not be possible to start the engine. The vehicle will go to ignition on. The selected range will flash and the selector will now be unlocked, to allow the driver to select P and start the engine.

Automatic mode
START EARNET STOP PR N D S START EARNET STOP PR N E94120

To select Drive (D) when the vehicle is stationary:-

  1. Apply the foot brake.
  2. Rotate the gear selector to D.

When in D the transmission will automatically select the most appropriate gear for the current driving conditions.

Note: When a gear is selected the vehicle may begin to move as soon as the foot brake is released.

Kick-down

When D is selected and the accelerator pedal is depressed fully, the transmission will downshift to the lowest appropriate gear. Once the accelerator pedal is returned to a normal driving position, the transmission will up-shift to the highest appropriate gear.

Note: Kick-down operation will vary according to road speed, current gear in use and accelerator movement.

Fast off

Activated when rapidly lifting off the accelerator pedal and takes account of road gradient. This feature inhibits up-shifts, enhancing performance.

Note: If Sport mode is selected, driver type recognition will vary the activation of this feature according to driving style.

Shift adapt under braking

Under braking, the transmission will vary the down-shift point in proportion to braking effort and road gradient. This feature works in conjunction with the positive torque function, resulting in a smoother down-shift.

Note: If Sport mode is selected, driver type recognition will vary the activation of this feature according to driving style.

Corner recognition

Inhibits up-shifts during cornering, to provide improved vehicle balance.

Note: If Sport mode is selected, driver type recognition will vary the activation of this feature according to driving style.

Road gradient recognition

When the vehicle is being driven on an uphi gradient, the transmission adapts the shift pattern to make better use of engine power.

When driving on a long downhill gradient, the transmission may automatically select a lower gear, to increase engine braking. Selecting Sport mode (S) will increase the tendency of the transmission to select a lower gear in these conditions, further increasing engine braking.

Note: It is also possible to manually select a lower gear to increase engine braking via use of the shift paddles.

Sport mode
2 START STOP P R N D START STOP P R N 1 E94121

To select Sport mode:

  1. With the selector in D, push down on the selector.
  2. Rotate from D to S.

Note: When Sport mode is selected SPORT will be displayed in the message centre, and the selector indicator will illuminate.

Sport mode enhances the responsiveness of the transmission, to provide a sporting feel to driving the vehicle. Sport mode is recommended for overtaking manoeuvres and for when rapid progress is desired.

To return to automatic mode move the selector lever back to the D position. The D on the selector display will illuminate to confirm that automatic mode has been selected.

Transmission

Driver type recognition

In Sport mode, the transmission monitors driving style and in combination with sensors in the vehicle, varies the shift schedule, fast-off, corner recognition and shift adapt under braking functions, according to the driving style.

Manual mode - Jaguar Sequential Shift
START STOP PRND - + 1 2 3 4 5 6

E94122

Shifts in the Jaguar Sequential Shift manual mode are made using the steering wheel mounted shift paddles and are optimised to provide a rapid response to gear shift requests. Up-shift requests (+) are optimised for performance via the short shift function, resulting in firmer feeling shifts than in automatic mode. Down-shift requests (-) utilise a throttle blip during the shift, resulting in improved shift feel.

The Jaguar Sequential Shift manual mode can be accessed either temporarily, or permanently.

Temporary 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.

This convenience feature allows immediate but temporary use of the shift paddles when the gear selector is in D.

If continued use of manual mode is required, the gear selector may be subsequently moved to the S position to enter permanent manual mode in the currently selected gear.

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.

The transmission will revert to automatic operation after a short period of driving at steady speed; alternatively the shift-up (+) paddle may be held for a short period (approximately one second) to return directly to automatic operation in D.

Permanent manual gear selection: Select the S position, permanent manual mode is then accessed by the operation of the steering wheel mounted shift paddles.

The message centre will highlight the currently selected gear.

Note: When the transmission is set to permanent manual mode (i.e. using the paddles to change gear while in Sport mode) and Dynamic mode is selected, transmission up-shifts are fully controlled by the driver. This means that the transmission will not change up a gear automatically, even when the vehicle's rev limit is reached. When the rev limit is reached, the gear position indicator in the message centre will glow amber, to indicate that the next gear should be selected.

To exit from the Jaguar Sequential Shift permanent manual mode, either pull and hold the shift-up paddle for approximately one second (to return directly to automatic operation in S), or rotate the gear selector to the D position. The transmission will revert to the D automatic shift mode.

Manual operation

To shift-up, briefly pull the shift-up (+) paddle on the right-hand side of the steering wheel towards you.

To shift-down, briefly pull the shift-down paddle (-) on the left-hand side of the steering wheel towards you.

The message centre display will change to highlight the requested gear.

Note: The transmission will inhibit up-shifts and down-shifts if the requested shift would result in an engine speed outside the normal operating range of the engine. If this occurs, the message centre will briefly display the requested gear selection, but will return to displaying the current gear.

The Jaguar Sequential Shift mode also has the following features:

Kick-down: Operation of kick-down in Jaguar Sequential Shift mode will override the currently selected gear. The lowest available gear will be selected for maximum acceleration and will be highlighted in the message centre display. Subsequent manual shifts may then be selected as usual.

Positive torque: Provides throttle blips on down-shifts, improving shift feel and response.

Shift assist: The transmission will automatically up-shift at the engine speed redline in Jaguar Sequential Shift mode, as if commanded manually.

The transmission will automatically down-shift, when the engine speed drops too low for the currently selected gear.

When the vehicle approaches, or comes to rest, second gear is automatically selected.

Subsequent pull-aways will occur in second gear, unless the accelerator pedal demand is high or a down-shift is manually selected, in which case, first gear will be selected.

In all cases the message centre will display the current gear.

Note: During sustained braking, if a down-shift is selected at a speed which would result in the engine speed exceeding its normal operating range, the gear change will be indicated in the message centre, but the down-shift will be delayed until the vehicle speed has reduced sufficiently for the gear selection to be made, without causing the engine speed to exceed its normal operating range.

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 unlikely event of an electrical or mechanical failure, transmission operation will be limited. The vehicle gear selector ranges 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 still unable to select the requested gear, contact your Dealer/Authorised Repairer.

Message centre display
PRNDS 14:56 3529 km A: 12.3 l/100km

JAG1629

The message centre will confirm the JaguarDrive selector position (selected gear).

Selector position is shown highlighted at the top of the message centre and confirmed by the dot on the circular representation of the selector.

If manual mode is selected, the numbers 1 to 6 appear at the top of the display, with the currently selected gear highlighted.

Note: With the transmission set to permanent manual mode and Dynamic mode selected, when the rev limit is reached, the gear position indicator in the message centre will glow amber, to indicate that the next gear should be selected.

The message centre may also display the following messages with associated warning indicators:

ENGINE SYSTEMS FAULT (Red)

RESTRICTED PERFORMANCE (Red or Amber) GEARBOX FAULT (Amber)

If any of these messages are displayed it is likely that loss of power or driveability will be experienced. Seek qualified assistance as soon as possible.

Do not rest your foot on the brake pedal whilst the vehicle is in motion. This may cause a light application of the brakes, which can result in overheating, reduced brake performance, and excessive brake wear.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - RESTRICTED PERFORMANCE (Red or Amber) GEARBOX FAULT (Amber) - 1

Never allow the vehicle to coast (freewheel) with the engine turned off. The engine must be running to provide full braking assistance. The brakes will still function with the engine off, but far more pressure will be required to operate them.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - RESTRICTED PERFORMANCE (Red or Amber) GEARBOX FAULT (Amber) - 2

If the red brake warning indicator illuminates, safely bring the vehicle to a stop, as quickly as possible. Seek qualified assistance before proceeding.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - RESTRICTED PERFORMANCE (Red or Amber) GEARBOX FAULT (Amber) - 3

Never place non-approved floor matting or any other obstructions under the brake pedal. This restricts pedal travel and braking efficiency.

Brake pads

Brake pads require a period of bedding in when new. Drive with extra caution for the first 500 km (300 miles) to avoid the need for heavy braking.

Brake pad wear warning

When the brake pads are wearing low, the warning message BRAKE PADS LOW is displayed in the message centre. Arrange for your vehicle to be seen by your Dealer/Authorised Repairer at the earliest opportunity.

Wet conditions

Driving through heavy rain or water can have an adverse effect on braking efficiency. Under such circumstances, it is recommended that you lightly apply the brakes intermittently to dry the brakes.

ABS warning indicator

JAGUAR XF (2009) - ABS warning indicator - 1

If this amber warning indicator illuminates while driving and/or ABS FAULT is displayed in the message centre, drive with extra caution, avoid heavy braking where possible, and seek qualified assistance as soon as possible.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - ABS warning indicator - 2

If this red warning indicator illuminates while driving and/or the message LOW BRAKE FLUID is

displayed in the message centre, check the brake fluid level at the earliest opportunity and top-up as required. See BRAKE FLUID CHECK (page 206).

HINTS ON DRIVING WITH ABS

WARNINGS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 1

ABS cannot overcome the physical limitations of braking distance. Nor can it overcome the lack of grip on a face (e.g. aquaplaning on water).

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 2

Braking distance is increased on a slippery surface. This applies to all vehicles, even those fitted with ABS.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 3

The driver should not be tempted to take risks when driving, in the hope that ABS will correct errors of rent. In all cases it remains the driver's ability to drive with due care and, paying particular attention to the speed, weather, road conditions etc.

ABS (Anti-Lock Braking System) allows maximum brake pressure, and thus maximum braking efficiency, to be applied, and prevents the road wheels locking. This allows the driver to retain steering control during heavy braking under most road conditions.

ABS optimises tyre to road adhesion under maximum braking conditions, though it cannot provide increased cornering ability.

During emergency braking conditions ABS constantly monitors the speed of each wheel. ABS varies the brake pressure to individual wheels, according to the grip available. The constant alteration of brake pressure can be felt as a pulsing sensation through the brake pedal. This is not a cause for concern, as it is designed to demonstrate to the driver that ABS is operating.

ABS braking techniques

For optimum ABS performance, these instructions on braking techniques during ABS operation should be followed:

  • Do not release the brake pressure when the pulsating effect is felt. Maintain a constant pressure until the manoeuvre is completed.
  • To familiarise yourself with the feel of the brake pedal during ABS braking, practise an emergency stop procedure, always making sure it is safe to do so. With the seat belts fitted to all occupants, drive the vehicle at 32 km/h (20 mph) and brake sharply.
  • ABS enables the driver to steer around obstacles during emergency braking. However, the consequences of turning sharply at high speed cannot be overcome by the ABS.
  • Do not attempt to pump the brakes to avoid skidding, as this can interfere with ABS operation. The ABS will not allow the wheels to skid under normal road conditions.
  • The ABS will tend to keep the vehicle straight during braking. Because braking distances may increase under certain road conditions, it is necessary to plan and make turning manoeuvres as early as possible.

Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD)

EBD balances the distribution of braking forces between the wheels on the front and rear axles, to maintain maximum braking under all vehicle loading conditions.

For example; Under light loads, EBD applies less braking effort to the rear wheels, to maintain stability. Conversely, it allows full braking effort to the rear wheels when the vehicle is towing or is heavily laden.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD) - 1

A fault with the EBD system is indicated by illumination of the red brake warning indicator and the

message EBD FAULT is displayed in the message centre. Gently stop the vehicle, as soon as safety permits, and seek qualified assistance.

Emergency Brake Assist (EBA)

WARNING

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 1

The EBA system is an additional safety system; it is not intended to relieve the driver of his or her responsibility for exercising due care and attention when driving.

The EBA system measures the rate at which the brake pressure increases. If the system detects an emergency braking situation, EBA automatically initiates full braking effect. This can reduce stopping distances in critical situations.

EBA stops operating as soon as the brake pedal is released.

DSC

EBA is part of the Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) system and a fault with the EBA system is indicated by the amber DSC warning indicator illuminating and DSC NOT AVAILABLE (with amber backlight) displaying in the message centre. Seek qualified assistance as soon as possible.

Brake vacuum assist

(V6 petrol models only)

When the engine is cold and/or engine vacuum is low, Brake vacuum assist provides additional brake pedal assistance. When the function is operating, a pulsation may be felt through the brake pedal - this is not a cause for concern.

A fault is indicated by the message BRAKE ASSIST FAULT (with amber backlight) appearing in the message centre. Increased brake pedal effort may be required to slow the vehicle when the engine is cold and/or engine vacuum is low. Seek qualified assistance.

The switch which operates the parking brake is mounted on the centre console to the rear of the gear selector.

To engage the parking brake (1): Pull the parking brake switch upwards and release. The switch will return to the neutral position. The Parking brake warning and Brake fluid low warning indicator on the instrument panel will illuminate.

The Drive Away Release feature allows the parking brake to release automatically as the vehicle is driven away.

To disengage the parking brake (2): With the ignition system on or with the engine running, apply the foot brake and press the parking brake switch down.

If the parking brake is applied while the vehicle is stationary and D or R is selected, applying the throttle will automatically release the parking brake.

The parking brake is also automatically released when the gear selector is moved from the P position.

If the parking brake is inadvertently applied when the vehicle is moving at above 3 km/h (1.8 mph), PARK BRAKE APPLIED is displayed in the message centre, the warning indicator in the instrument panel will illuminate and a warning chime will sound.

If the parking brake is applied whilst the vehicle is moving, releasing the switch will disengage the parking brake. The parking brake cannot be applied when the vehicle is moving, if the accelerator pedal is pressed.

Note: If the vehicle is in motion, the parking brake should only be used as an emergency brake.

CAUTION

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTION - 1

Always apply the parking brake when the vehicle is parked.

The warning indicator in the instrument panel will remain on for a short time, if the parking brake is applied when the ignition system is reverted to the convenience mode.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTION - 2

If a fault in the system is detected, the amber brake warning indicator will illuminate and PARK BRAKE

FAULT or CANNOT APPLY PARK BRAKE will be displayed in the message centre. Seek qualified assistance as soon as possible.

If the battery has been discharged or disconnected, APPLY FOOT AND PARK BRAKE will be displayed in the message centre when the ignition is next switched on. Depress the foot brake and pull the parking brake switch up to apply the parking brake. This is required to reset the parking brake system. The parking brake will now function correctly.

It remains the driver's responsibility to be vigilant when reversing. Small children or animals may not be detected by the system.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTION - 3

It remains the driver's responsibility to detect obstacles and estimate the vehicle's distance from them. Some overhanging objects, barriers, thin obstructions or painted surfaces which could possibly cause damage to the vehicle may not be detected by the system. Always be vigilant when reversing.

CAUTIONS

Objects moving away from the vehicle will be reported. However, whilst driving away, object warning may be temporarily reported due to ground reflection.
Systems using the same frequency band as the front parking sensors, may cause irregular tones to be emitted.

Note: Once the system has been activated by selecting reverse or using the switch, the front and rear sensors are active when the gear selector is in neutral. Therefore, if an obstacle is detected an audible warning tone will sound.

The parking aid is automatically in standby when the ignition is on and provides the driver with information on most obstructions, and their distance from the vehicle, when manoeuvring. This is achieved by using four ultrasonic sensors on each bumper.

When objects are detected the Park aid will emit a warning tone which increases in frequency and then becomes constant, as the vehicle gets closer to the object.

USING THE PARKING AID

When both front and rear parking aids are fitted, a switch is located in the overhead console.

Pressing the switch turns both the front and rear parking aids on or off. The switch warning indicator will come on when the system is turned on. A switch is not provided when only a rear parking aid is fitted.

Note: The front parking aid will also operate when reverse gear is selected.

The front parking aid provides an audible proximity warning when driving forwards or reversing.

The front and rear sensors only operate within a fixed speed range in forward gears and are not effective when moving forwards above 15 km/h (9 mph).

E94142 1 2 3 1

Objects are detected within the approximate operating range from the front of the vehicle, as shown in the illustration above:

  1. 600 mm (24 inches).
  2. 1800 mm (71 inches).
  3. 800 mm (31 inches).

If an obstacle is detected at the front or rear of the vehicle, a warning tone will be heard from the front or rear speaker respectively.

Note: The outer rear sensors (1) will show visual detection on the touch-screen, before the audible warning is given.

The warning tone increases in rate as the vehicle approaches the obstacle.

The front or rear warning tone will become continuous when the obstacle is detected at or within 300 mm (12 inches) from the vehicle.

Note: The outer front and rear sensors will switch off if the distance to an object increases or remains constant for 3 seconds. The sensors will reactivate automatically if a new object is detected within the operating range, or if the distance to the original object reduces.

Rear fitted accessories

Particular care must be taken when reversing with rear fitted accessories e.g. bicycle carrier, as the rear park assist will only indicate the distance from the bumper to the obstacle.

Cleaning the sensors

Do not clean the sensors with abrasive or sharp objects or materials.

For reliable operation, the sensors in the front and rear bumpers should be kept free from ice, frost and grime.

When using a high pressure spray the sensors should only be sprayed briefly and not from a distance of less than 200 mm (8 inches).

System fault

If the system has a fault when engaging reverse gear or turning on the ignition, then a single, three second tone will be heard (only once per ignition cycle) and a pop-up warning will appear on the touch-screen. If both front and rear parking aids are fitted, the warning indicator in the parking aid switch will flash for three seconds and then switch off, if a fault is detected.

If a fault is detected, the system is automatically disabled.

The parking aid may sound spurious tones if it detects a frequency tone using the same band as the sensors (e.g. air brakes).

It remains the driver's responsibility to detect obstacles and estimate the vehicle's distance from them when reversing. Some overhanging objects or barriers, which could possibly cause damage to the vehicle, may not be detected by the camera.

RUNNING-IN

Apart from a few precautionary recommendations, there are no strict running-in procedures for this vehicle.

By observing the following advisory precautions you will ensure maximum engine, transmission and brake life for your vehicle:

Engine

  • Allow the engine to reach operating temperature before operating at engine speeds over 3 500 rev/min.
    • Vary the speed frequently.
  • From 1 500 kilometres (940 miles) onwards, gradually increase performance of the vehicle up to the permitted maximum speed.

Engine oil consumption

A certain amount of oil consumption is normal. The rate of consumption will depend on the following:

• The quality and viscosity of the oil.
- Climatic conditions.
- The speed at which the engine is being operated.
- Road conditions.

Drivers should expect above normal consumption when the engine is new, and after running-in if high speeds are sustained.

Brakes

To ensure that brake pads reach their optimum wear and performance condition, usually within 500 kilometres (300 miles), it is recommended that the following points are observed.

  • Where possible, avoid heavy or harsh braking, as this can result in damage to the brake pads and discs.
  • Avoid prolonged use of the brakes (e.g. when descending severe gradients).
  • Frequent light application of the brakes is desirable. This helps to fully bed-in the brake pads.

These running-in guidelines also apply when new brake discs or pads have been fitted.

Final drive unit

During the first 1 500 kilometers (940 miles):

  • Avoid full throttle applications and do not exceed 190 km/h (120 mph). Observe the national speed limits in the country in which you are travelling.
  • Do not participate in motor racing events, test track days, sports driving schools or similar for the first 8 000 kilometers (4 975 miles).

ECONOMICAL DRIVING

There are two main factors which influence fuel economy, the way the vehicle is driven and maintenance.

Driving tips for economy

  • Avoid unnecessary journeys, especially short stop-start trips.
  • Accelerate smoothly and gently from a stand still.
  • Allow time to brake gently and smoothly.
  • Be aware of traffic and road conditions ahead, and take action in time to avoid hard braking or acceleration.
  • When stationary apply the park brake, and select neutral.
  • Turn off the air conditioning when not needed.

Maintenance and fuel economy

Regular servicing by a Dealer/Authorised Repairer, along with regular checks by the driver are essential for vehicle longevity and fuel economy.

The condition of the engine (oils, filters, spark plugs, settings etc.) tyre pressures, and wheel alignment, will all have a bearing on fuel economy. For this reason it is essential that the vehicle is checked regularly by the driver and serviced by an approved Dealer/Authorised Repairer at the correct intervals.

Note: If you are in any doubt about the maintenance requirements, intervals, or checks required, contact your Dealer/Authorised Repairer for advice.

Cruise control enables the driver to maintain a constant road speed without using the accelerator pedal. This is particularly useful for motorway cruising, or for any journey where a constant speed can be maintained for a lengthy period.

1 3 2 E97088

The cruise (speed) control system can be used by the driver to maintain a selected vehicle speed above 30 km/h (18 mph).

Adjustment controls on the steering wheel allow the driver manual control of the system. Brake operations also influence the cruise control system.

  1. SET - The speed adjustment control thumb wheel is used to engage cruise control initially by rolling it upwards. It is also used to increase (+) or decrease (-) the set speed until the desired speed is obtained.
  2. CANCEL - Cancels cruise control but retains the set speed in memory.
  3. RESUME - Resumes the cruise control set speed after it has been cancelled.

USING CRUISE CONTROL

Setting vehicle speed

WARNING

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 1

Only use cruise control when conditions are favourable, for example, straight, dry, open roads with light traffic.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 2

In certain conditions, such as a steep downhill gradient, the vehicle speed may exceed the set cruising speed.

This is because engine braking is unable to maintain or reduce the vehicle speed. Driver intervention may be required.

When you are travelling at the speed you require, roll the speed adjustment control (1) upwards or downwards to increase or decrease speed.

Cruise control will engage and maintain the set speed and you can remove your foot from the accelerator pedal.

Note: Cruise control will automatically disengage when the brake pedal is pressed or when the vehicle speed falls below 30 km/h (18 mph).

Changing the speed

SET + - E97089

There are two ways to change the set speed:

  • Accelerate or decelerate to the desired speed then roll the speed adjustment control upwards (+).
  • Increase or decrease the speed by rolling the speed adjustment control upwards (+) or downwards (-) until the desired speed is obtained.

Note: The set speed can be increased or decreased in steps of 2 km/h (1 mph), by rolling the speed adjustment control upwards (+) or downwards (-) briefly until the desired speed is obtained.

Resuming the speed

If the vehicle is accelerated above the set speed, then the set speed will be resumed when the accelerator pedal is released.

If CANCEL is pressed, or the brake pedal is pressed, the cruise control will disengage but the set speed memory will be retained. Press RESUME and the vehicle will return to the set speed.

Note: Cruise control will not resume at speeds below 30 km/h (18 mph).

RESUME will not operate if the ignition has been turned off.

CAUTIONS

! RESUME should only be used if the driver is aware of the set speed and intends to return to it.
It is not recommended to resume set speed when a low gear is selected as excessive engine speeds will occur.

Cruise control will switch off and clear the memory when:

• The ignition system is switched off.
- A fault occurs. The cruise control system will switch off and cannot be used until the fault is cleared.

Automatic switch off

Cruise control will switch off but the set speed will remain in the memory when:

• The CANCEL button is pressed.
• The brake pedal is pressed.
• Speed falls below 30 km/h (18 mph).
- Neutral, Park or Reverse gear positions are selected.
• Dynamic Stability Control is operating.
- The difference between the actual and set speed is too great.
- When the vehicle reaches a maximum speed of 192 km/h (120 mph).
- The accelerator pedal is used to accelerate beyond the set speed for too long a period.

Adaptive cruise control (ACC)

The Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) system is designed to aid the driver to maintain a gap from the vehicle ahead or a set road speed if there is no slower vehicle ahead. The system is intended to provide enhanced operation of the vehicle when following other vehicles which are in the same lane and travelling in the same direction.

WARNING

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 1

ACC is not a collision warning or avoidance system. Additionally, ACC will not react to:

  • Stationary or slow moving vehicles below 10 km/h (6 mph).
  • Pedestrians or objects in the roadway.
  • Oncoming vehicles in the same lane.

The ACC system uses a radar sensor, which projects a beam directly forward of the vehicle to detect objects ahead.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 2

natural_image Front view of a silver sedan car with headlights and grille (no visible text or symbols)

The radar sensor is mounted centrally behind the bumper cover above the cooling aperture, to provide a clear view forward for the radar beam.

CAUTION

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTION - 1

Only use ACC when conditions are favourable (i.e. main roads with free flowing traffic).

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTION - 2

Do not use in poor visibility, specifically fog, heavy rain, spray or snow.

CAUTION

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTION - 1

Do not use on icy or slippery roads.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTION - 2

It is the drivers responsibility to stay alert, drive safely and be in control of the vehicle at all times.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTION - 3

Keep the front of the vehicle free from dirt, metal badges or objects, including vehicle front protectors, which may prevent the sensor from operating.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTION - 4

Do not use ACC when entering or leaving a motorway.

USING ACC

1 2 3 4 E97090

The system is operated by adjustment controls mounted on the steering wheel. The driver can also intervene at any time by use of the brake or accelerator pedals. The steering wheel adjustment controls operate as follows:

  1. SET - Rotate the thumbwheel upwards (+) or downwards (-), to increase or decrease speed, until the desired speed is achieved.
  2. Gap increase or decrease. Four settings available by adjusting the thumb wheel.
  3. CANCEL - Cancels but retains the set speed in memory.
  4. RESUME - Resumes the set speed after it has been cancelled.

Setting the speed

Accelerate as normal until the required speed is reached.

SET + - E97091

Rotate the speed adjustment control upwards (+) to store the vehicle speed in the memory and engage the system.

The set speed will be displayed on the message centre (e.g. SETSPEED 80 KM/H (50 MPH)).

Changing the speed

There are three ways to change the set speed:

  • Accelerate or brake to the desired speed then rotate the speed adjustment control upwards (+).
  • Increase or decrease the speed by rotating the speed adjustment control upwards (+) or downwards (-), until the required set speed is shown on the message centre. The vehicle speed will gradually adjust to the selected speed.
  • Increase or decrease the speed in steps of 2 km/h (1 mph) by rotating the speed adjustment control upwards (+) or downwards (-) briefly until the desired speed is obtained.

ACC operates between approximately 30 km/h and 180 km/h (18 mph and 112 mph) dependent on the country specification.

Set speeds outside this range will not be captured.

The ACC may apply the brakes to slow down the vehicle to the new set speed. The new set speed will be displayed on the message centre until ACC is cancelled.

Follow mode gap settings

WARNING

When in follow mode, the vehicle will not decelerate automatically to a stop, nor will the vehicle always decelerate quickly enough to avoid a collision, without driver intervention.

Once a set speed has been selected, the driver can release the accelerator and the set road speed will be maintained.

When a vehicle ahead enters the same lane or a slower vehicle is ahead in the same lane, the vehicle speed will be adjusted automatically until the gap to the vehicle ahead corresponds to the default gap setting (gap level 3). The vehicle is now in follow mode.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 1

The amber warning indicator in the instrument panel will be illuminated.

GAP GAP E91497

The message centre will display the gap set.

The vehicle will then maintain the constant time gap to the vehicle ahead until:

  • The vehicle ahead accelerates to a speed above the set speed.
  • The vehicle ahead moves out of lane or out of view.
    • A new gap distance is set.

If necessary, the vehicle brakes will be automatically applied to slow the vehicle to maintain the gap to the vehicle in front.

The maximum braking which is applied by the ACC system is limited and can be overridden by the driver applying the brakes, if required.

Note: Driver braking will cancel ACC.

If the ACC system predicts that its maximum braking level will not be sufficient, then an audible warning will sound while the ACC continues to brake. DRIVER INTERVENE will be displayed on the message centre. The driver should take immediate action.

When in follow mode, the vehicle will automatically return to the set speed when the road ahead is clear, for instance when:

  • The vehicle in front accelerates or changes lane.
  • The driver changes lane to either side or enters an exit lane.

The driver should intervene if appropriate.

Changing the follow mode set gap

The gap from the vehicle ahead can be decreased or increased by rolling the thumbwheel on the steering wheel. Four gap settings are available and the selected gap setting will be displayed on the message centre when either ACC button is pressed.

Each gap level is indicated by an additional chevron in front of the vehicle icon in the message centre (one chevron (gap level 1) being the shortest, four chevrons (gap level 4) being the longest). After the ignition is switched on, the default gap (gap level 3) will be automatically selected ready for ACC operation.

Note: When the ignition is switched off, the gap setting will revert to the default setting (gap level 3) when switched on again.

Note: It is the driver's responsibility to select a gap appropriate to the driving conditions.

Overriding the speed and follow mode

WARNING

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 1

Whenever the driver is overriding the ACC by depressing the accelerator pedal, the ACC will not automatically apply the brakes to maintain separation from any vehicle ahead.

The set speed and gap can be overridden by pressing the accelerator pedal when cruising at constant speed or in follow mode. If the vehicle is in follow mode, the instrument warning indicator will go out when the ACC is overridden by the driver using the accelerator and CRUISE OVERRIDE will be displayed on the message centre. When the accelerator is released the ACC function will operate again and vehicle speed will decrease to the set speed, or a lower speed if follow mode is active.

Automatic low speed switch off

If the speed of the vehicle decreases below 30 km/h (18 mph), the ACC system will be automatically switched off and the instrument warning indicator will go out.

If the brakes were being applied by the ACC system, they will be slowly released.

This will be accompanied by an audible warning, and DRIVER INTERVENE will be displayed on the message centre. The driver must take control.

Automatic switch off

ACC will disengage, but not clear the memory when;

• the CANCEL button (3) is pressed
• the brake pedal is pressed
- Neutral (N), Park (P) or Reverse (R) gear positions are selected
• Dynamic Stability Control activates.

ACC will disengage, and clear the memory when;

• the ignition system is switched off
• maximum vehicle speed is reached
• a fault occurs in the ACC system.

Resuming the speed and follow mode

CAUTION

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTION - 1

RESUME should only be used if the driver is aware of the set speed and intends to return to it.

By pressing the RESUME button (4) after ACC has been cancelled, for example, after braking, the ACC will become active again provided that the set speed memory has not been erased. The original set speed will be resumed (unless a vehicle ahead causes the follow mode to become active) and the set speed will be displayed in the message centre for four seconds.

Hints on driving with ACC

The system acts by regulating the speed of the vehicle using engine control and the brakes. Gear changes may occur in response to deceleration or acceleration whilst in ACC.

ACC is not a collision avoidance system. However, during some situations the system may provide the driver with an indication that intervention is required.

An audible alarm will sound, accompanied by the message DRIVER INTERVENE if the ACC detects:

  • A failure has occurred whilst the system is active
  • That using maximum ACC braking only is not sufficient.

Note: ACC operates when the gear selector lever is in position S or D.

Note: When engaged, the accelerator pedal rests in the raised position. Fully release the pedal to allow normal ACC operation.

Note: When braking is applied by the ACC, the vehicle brake lamps will be switched on although the brake pedal will not move.

natural_image Top-down diagram of a road intersection with vehicles and a truck, no text or symbols present

E91498

Detection issues can occur:

  1. When driving on a different line to the vehicle in front.
  2. When a vehicle edges into your lane. The vehicle will only be detected once it has moved fully into your lane.
  3. There may be issues with the detection of vehicles in front when going into and coming out of a bend.

In these cases ACC may brake late or unexpectedly. The driver should stay alert and intervene if necessary.

ACC malfunction

If a malfunction occurs during operation of the system in cruise or follow modes, the ACC system will switch off and 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 detects no objects ahead in ACC or follow mode, then the 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 roads with few objects for the radar to detect.

Clearing the obstruction allows the system to return to normal operation. If the obstruction 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 may have different sizes. This can affect the correct operation of the ACC.

Adverse weather conditions

WARNING

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 1

Do not use in poor visibility, specifically fog, heavy rain, spray or snow.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 2

Do not use on icy or slippery roads.

During adverse weather conditions such as heavy rain or snowfall, the sensitivity of radar blockage detection is increased, so that it can correctly detect any reduced performance caused by a blocked sensor.

During these conditions, the warning message ACC SENSOR BLOCKED may be displayed more frequently, especially in areas where there are few roadside objects for the radar to detect.

FORWARD ALERT FUNCTION

Diagram showing car rear panel with switches and a warning sign indicating collision or hazard.

JAG1303

Limited detection and warning of objects ahead, is provided during 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 issued. 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.

The Forward alert function may be switched on or off using the forward alert switch, located where shown.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - FORWARD ALERT FUNCTION - 2

When the indicator in the instrument panel is on, Forward alert is active.

The sensitivity of the warning may be changed:

  • Press the gap decrease button when ACC is disengaged to display and then decrease the sensitivity of the alert.
  • Press the gap increase button to display and then increase the sensitivity of the alert.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - FORWARD ALERT FUNCTION - 3

FORWARD ALERT is displayed in the message centre.

Advanced Emergency Brake Assist, is an additional safety system and is not intended to relieve the driver of the responsibility for exercising due care and attention when driving.

On vehicles fitted with Advanced Emergency Brake Assist, brake response is improved during emergency braking when a moving vehicle is detected close ahead.

Advanced Emergency Brake Assist activates If the risk of collision increases after the FORWARD ALERT warning is displayed.

See FORWARD ALERT FUNCTION (page 164). The brakes are automatically applied gently in preparation for rapid braking (which may be noticeable). If the brake pedal is then pressed quickly, then braking is implemented fully, even if the pressure on the pedal is light.

See HINTS ON DRIVING WITH ABS (page 144).

Advanced Emergency Brake Assist is available at speeds above approximately 7 km/h (5 mph) and will function even if Forward Alert and Adaptive Cruise Control are switched off. A fault with the system will be indicated by the warning FORWARD ALERT UNAVAILABLE appearing in the message centre. Advanced Emergency Brake Assist will not be available until the fault is rectified.

CAUTION

The system may not react to slow moving vehicles and will not react to stationary vehicles or vehicles not travelling in the same direction as your vehicle.

Advanced Emergency Brake Assist can only improve braking performance if the driver applies the brakes.

Warnings may not appear if the distance to the vehicle ahead is very small or if steering wheel and pedal movements are large (e.g. to avoid a collision).

Advanced Emergency Brake Assist utilises the same radar sensor as Adaptive Cruise Control and Forward Alert - the same limitations of performance apply.

See PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION (page 159).

See USING ACC (page 159).

See FORWARD ALERT FUNCTION (page 164).

FORWARD ALERT Forward Alert feature has been switched on or the setting changed. A warning will be given for objects detected in the vehicle path of travel.A longer gap indicates that the system will warn when detected objects are further away than the previous setting.Action by the driver to apply the brakes is required.
FORWARD ALERT UNAVAILABLEAdvanced emergency brake assist and Forward Alert functions are unavailable.

Automatic Speed Limiter (ASL) set speeds must be within local speed restriction limits. The driver must always ensure that a safe speed is set, taking into account the prevailing traffic and road conditions.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTION - 1

In certain conditions, such as a steep downhill gradient, the vehicle speed may exceed the set speed limit. This is because engine braking is unable to maintain or reduce the vehicle speed. Driver intervention may be required.

ASL can be used in a situation where varying vehicle speed is likely but a maximum speed must not be exceeded. For example, where a local speed limit is 80 km/h (50 mph), the set speed could be at that limit or just under.

If ASL is not selected, cruise control is always available by simply rotating the thumb wheel on the right-hand side of the steering wheel to set a cruising speed. The ASL button allows the driver to select between cruise control and the automatic speed limiter. The ASL can be set to any speed between 30 km/h (18 mph) and 240 km/h (150 mph).

Note: Although ASL only operates at speeds between 30 km/h (18 mph) and 240 km/h (150 mph), the maximum speed can be set when the vehicle is stationary.

When ASL is selected, the warning indicator in the instrument panel will illuminate. When the ASL button is pressed again, the light will extinguish, ASL will be cancelled and cruise control will be available again.

Note: The message is also displayed at other times as an information display.

When ASL is selected and a set speed inserted, the engine will respond normally up to the set speed. Further accelerator pedal pressure will not increase the vehicle speed beyond your set speed, unless kickdown is initiated, in which case ASL will be suspended.

Suspending ASL

ASL can be suspended by pressing the CANCEL button (3). Applying sudden, rapid acceleration (kickdown) will also suspend ASL.

LIMITER CANCELLED

Resuming ASL

If ASL has been suspended, it can be reinstated with a single press of the RESUME button (2), however, ASL will only reinstate if the vehicle speed is less than the current speed set in memory and greater than 30 km/h (18 mph). The message centre will display an appropriate message if the vehicle speed is too fast to resume ASL.

TOO FAST TO RESUME

Exceeding the set speed

If the set speed is exceeded, e.g. on a steep downhill section, the message centre will display an appropriate message along with an amber warning indicator.

OVER LIMIT XXX km/h (MPH)

There are three categories of over limit displays:

  • If the set speed is exceeded by up to 3 km/h (1.8 mph), the message centre will display the message along with an amber warning indicator.
  • If the set speed is exceeded by more than 7 km/h (4 mph), the message centre will display the message along with a flashing red warning indicator.
  • If the set speed is exceeded by more than 7 km/h (4 mph) for a duration of four seconds, the message centre will display the message along with a flashing red warning indicator and an audible warning tone.

Use your brakes to rectify the situation.

ASL unavailable

If ASL is not available due to a fault, the message centre will display an appropriate message along with an amber warning indicator.

LIMITER NOT AVAILABLE

The message and warning indicator will display when the driver attempts to use ASL.

When the ignition is switched off, ASL is deactivated and any set speed is deleted from memory.

GENERAL INFORMATION

WARNING

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 1

It remains the driver's responsibility to drive safely, according to the prevailing conditions and within the law.

JaguarDrive Control

JaguarDrive Control is a selectable vehicle optimisation system, designed to fine-tune the driving characteristics of the vehicle by accommodating different driving conditions or driving styles.

The system allows the performance envelope of the vehicle to be stretched and prevents the necessity for a single, compromised configuration for all conditions, thereby increasing the vehicle's abilities.

The vehicle systems optimised by JaguarDrive Control are:

• Engine management.
• Transmission management.
- Dynamic Stability Control and traction control.
- Adaptive dynamics.
• Active Differential Control (E-diff) - Supercharged vehicles only.

Note: Changing from one special mode to another, will introduce noticeably different vehicle responses. For example, the engine revs produced by the accelerator position when a special mode is not selected, may increase or decrease when a mode is selected.

To familiarise yourself with, and get the best from, the JaguarDrive Control modes, you should try out the modes in circumstances which are safe for you and other road users.

START FROM STOP P R N 2 3 DSC 1 JAG1654

  1. Dynamic mode switch.
  2. Winter mode switch.
  3. DSC mode switch.

WINTER MODE

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WINTER MODE - 1

Press to operate. Designed for use in slippery conditions, when active, Winter mode selects 2nd gear for driving away on level ground (no incline), softens the responsiveness of the engine and modifies the gear change strategy. This ensures that optimum traction is maintained.

Winter mode optimises stability of the vehicle to suit slippery conditions, when grip is reduced. The vehicle performs in a more gentle and controlled manner, to avoid skidding, allowing more confident progress under adverse conditions.

Note: Winter mode cannot be active at the same time as Dynamic mode. Winter mode will remain selected indefinitely after the ignition is switched off, until deselected by the driver.

DYNAMIC MODE

(V8 petrol and diesel vehicles only)

JAGUAR XF (2009) - DYNAMIC MODE - 1

Press to operate. Dynamic mode co-ordinates the vehicle's control systems to deliver a high

performance driving experience. This setting enhances key vehicle systems so that the vehicle's full potential can be exploited. The vehicle's responses are aimed at involving the driver more in focused and purposeful driving, helping swift progress.

Note: When the transmission is set to permanent manual mode (i.e. using the paddles to change gear while in Sport mode) and Dynamic mode is selected, transmission upshifts are fully controlled by the driver. This means that the transmission will not change up a gear automatically, even when the vehicle's rev limit is reached. When the rev limit is reached, the gear position indicator in the message centre will glow amber, to indicate that the next gear should be selected.

Note: Dynamic mode cannot be active at the same time as Winter mode. Dynamic mode will remain selected for approximately six hours after the ignition is switched off, after which point it will need to be reselected if required.

STABILITY CONTROL

Dynamic Stability Control (DSC)

WARNING

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 1

The fact that the vehicle is fitted with DSC, must never allow the driver to be tempted into taking risks which could affect his or her safety or that of other road users. In all cases, it remains the driver's responsibility to drive safely according to the prevailing conditions.

Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) is operational whenever the engine is running, unless it has been manually switched off. When the system is operating, the warning indicator in the instrument panel will flash.

The DSC system controls the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS), traction control and yaw control of the vehicle.

The DSC system assists the driver in retaining directional control of the vehicle in situations where the vehicle is sliding (understeer or oversteer). It must not encourage the driver to drive beyond the limit of adhesion or at speeds higher than those suitable for the prevailing road and traffic conditions.

DSC applies braking pressure to individual wheels if excessive variation is detected. This ensures that the vehicle follows the driver's intended direction of travel as closely as possible.

Traction control will intervene to control wheel spin by automatically reducing the power output from the engine and applying braking to individual wheels. This improves acceleration, particularly on surfaces with uneven friction (e.g. one wheel on ice with another on tarmac).

Note: For recommended DSC mode selection, refer to the JaguarDrive Control scenarios section in this handbook.

TracDSC

WARNING

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 1

Vehicle safety may be reduced by inappropriate use of TracDSC. TracDSC should only be used in suitable conditions.

TracDSC is an alternative setting of DSC with reduced system interventions. With TracDSC engaged, traction may be somewhat increased, although stability may be reduced compared to normal DSC. TracDSC is intended for use only on dry tarmac, by suitably experienced drivers and should not be selected for other surfaces or by drivers with insufficient skill and training to operate the vehicle safely with the TracDSC function engaged.

The less restrictive TracDSC setting may be preferred, for example, by expert drivers engaged in high performance driving on dry Tarmac surfaces such as tracks and circuits.

START DRIVE STOP P R M DSC E95149

Switching between DSC and Trac DSC

  • Press and hold the DSC switch for less than 10 seconds.
  • The message centre will temporarily display either Trac DSC or DSC ON.
  • The warning indicator in the instrument panel will illuminate while Trac DSC is selected.
  • The warning indicator will flash when DSC or Trac DSC is active.

Note: If cruise control is engaged, it will automatically disengage if stability control activates.

Switching between DSC OFF and ON

Switching DSC OFF

  • Press and hold the DSC switch for more than 10 seconds.
  • The message centre will display DSC OFF and a short warning chime will sound.
  • The warning indicator in the instrument panel will illuminate.

Switching DSC ON

If DSC is OFF:

  • Press and release the DSC switch.
  • The DSC system will switch on, the message centre will temporarily display DSC ON.
  • The warning indicator in the instrument panel will be extinguished.

Note: Switching the engine off and then on again, will always revert DSC status to DSC ON, regardless of which JaguarDrive Control mode is selected.

Note: In rare circumstances, when TracDSC is selected or DSC is off, high acceleration on rough roads may cause DSC to switch back on. This prevents high loads on the vehicle driveline. DSC will subsequently remain on, unless TracDSC is selected or DSC is switched off manually.

Stability control indicator

JAGUAR XF (2009) - Stability control indicator - 1

If there is a fault, the warning indicator will illuminate in the instrument panel and the message

centre will display DSC NOT AVAILABLE with an amber backlight.

It is safe to drive the vehicle, but the DSC system will not activate under wheel spin or slide conditions. You should seek qualified assistance as soon as possible.

Adaptive dynamics (Supercharged vehicles only)

Jaguar Adaptive dynamics continuously monitors the road and driver inputs and optimises the vehicle suspension settings for ride comfort and control.

The adaptive dynamics system is linked to Dynamic mode, modifying the suspension settings for a more sporting character.

If the message centre displays the message ADAPTIVE DYNAMICS FAULT, a fault has been detected in the adaptive dynamics system. Seek qualified assistance as soon as possible.

Active Differential Control (E-diff) (Supercharged vehicles only)

The E-diff improves traction when one driven wheel has more grip than the other. This improves progress out of corners and on patchy or uneven surfaces. The E-diff can also increase stability in oversteer situations, depending on road conditions and driver inputs.

Settings for the E-diff are made automatically, without the need for driver selection.

If there is a fault with the E-diff system, the message centre will display EDIFF SYSTEM FAULT. If DSC is off, then TracDSC will be selected automatically. The driver can still switch between DSC modes, as normal and the vehicle is safe to drive, but seek qualified assistance as soon as possible.

Note: If the E-diff is active continuously for an extended period (e.g. on a patchy surface with DSC off) then the E-diff may be temporarily deactivated to prevent overheating. If DSC is off, then TracDSC will be selected automatically. The message centre will display EDIFF NOT AVAILABLE. The driver can still switch between DSC modes as normal and the E-diff will become available again automatically when it has cooled sufficiently.

Do not smoke, use a naked flame, or cause sparks. The resulting fire and explosion may cause serious injury and death.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 6

Do not overfill the fuel tank. Overfilling may cause spillage when the vehicle is driven. Spillage may also occur if the fuel expands in high ambient temperatures.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 7

Any modifications to the fuel system not specifically designed for this Jaguar are prohibited. Such modifications in some circumstances, could result in a fire. All service actions should be entrusted to a Dealer/Authorised Repairer.

WARNINGS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 1

The presence of any unusual fumes (e.g. petrol or exhaust fumes) in the passenger compartment and/or luggage compartment, should be corrected immediately by a Dealer/Authorised Repairer. If you must drive under these conditions, do so only with all windows fully open.

FUEL QUALITY

Water in fuel

CAUTIONS

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.

Petrol engined vehicles

CAUTIONS

Do not use leaded fuels, lead substitutes or fuel additives. Doing so can cause damage to the engine, fuel and emission control systems.

Only use high quality petrol, as using lower quality fuels can cause damage to the engine, fuel and emission control systems.

Fuel system cleaning agents should not be used, unless approved by Jaguar. Unapproved products may be harmful to fuel system components on your vehicle.

It is the driver's responsibility to fill the vehicle with the correct fuel. If the vehicle is filled with the wrong type of fuel, do not start the engine. Call for Roadside Assistance.

Unleaded fuel

Unleaded fuel must be used for the emission control system to operate properly. Its use will also reduce spark plug fouling, exhaust system corrosion and engine oil deterioration.

Octane rating

The recommended unleaded fuel should have an octane rating of 95 RON (Research Octane Number) or higher. However, you may also use unleaded fuel with a lower RON, but performance will be reduced. The minimum octane rating for fuel to be used is 91 RON.

Note: Using unleaded fuel with a lower octane rating than recommended, can cause persistent heavy engine knock (a metallic rapping noise). If severe, this can lead to engine damage.

If a heavy knock is detected, even when using fuel to the recommended octane rating, or if you hear knock while holding a steady speed on level roads, consult your Dealer/Authorised Repairer to have the problem corrected. Failure to do so is misuse of the vehicle, for which Jaguar Cars is not responsible. However, occasional, light knock for a short time while accelerating or driving up hill, may occur.

ALTERNATIVE FUELS FOR PETROL ENGINES

Fuels containing alcohol

CAUTIONS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTIONS - 1

Fuel containing alcohol can cause paint damage, which may not be covered under the warranty.

Some fuel suppliers sell fuel containing alcohol without advertising its presence. Where uncertainty exists, check with the service centre operator.

Note: Some difficulty in starting may be encountered when using alcohol blended fuel.

Ethanol

CAUTIONS

This vehicle is not suitable for use with fuels containing more than 10% Ethanol.

Do not use E85 fuels (85% Ethanol content). Equipment necessary for the use of fuels containing more than 10% Ethanol is not fitted to this vehicle. If E85 fuels are used, serious engine and fuels system damage will occur.

Fuels containing up to 10% Ethanol (grain alcohol) may be used. Ensure that the fuel has octane ratings no lower than those recommended for unleaded fuel. Most drivers will not notice any operating difference with fuel containing Ethanol. If a difference is detected, the use of conventional unleaded fuel should be resumed.

Methanol

CAUTION

Wherever possible avoid using fuel containing Methanol.

Some fuels contain Methanol (Methyl or wood alcohol). If you use fuels containing Methanol the fuels must also contain co-solvents and corrosion inhibitors for Methanol. Also, do not use fuels which contain more than 10% Methanol even if they contain co-solvents and corrosion inhibitors. Fuel system damage or vehicle performance problems resulting from the use of such fuels is not the responsibility of Jaguar, and may not be covered under the warranty.

Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether (MTBE)

Unleaded fuel containing an oxygenate known as MTBE can be used provided 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.

Reformulated gasoline

Several petroleum companies have announced the availability of reformulated fuels. These fuels are specially formulated to further reduce vehicle emissions. Jaguar fully supports all efforts to protect and maintain ambient air quality and encourages the use of reformulated gasoline, where available.

DIESEL ENGINED VEHICLES

CAUTION

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 fuel 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, light coloured smoke may be evident at the exhaust.

Note: Jaguar vehicles are 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.

CAUTIONS

If you inadvertently fill your vehicle with petrol instead of diesel, do not attempt to start the engine. Contact your Dealer/Authorised Repairer immediately. Attempting to start the engine with petrol in the fuel tank, will cause extensive damage to the engine and fuel system, which will not be covered by your Jaguar warranty.
Jaguar cars can accept no responsibility for any damage caused by running your vehicle with petrol or vegetable oil in the fuel tank.

Winter grade diesel fuel

To make sure of reliable diesel engine operation during cold seasonal periods, Winter grade fuel must be used. This fuel is normally available from fuel retailers during these periods and the fuel companies adjust the fuel quality to suit climatic conditions.

If the vehicle is not filled with Winter grade diesel fuel, it is recommended that the engine is idled for a period of over two minutes after starting, to prevent fuel solidification during operation.

Sulphur content

CAUTION

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTION - 1

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. See DIESEL

PARTICULATE FILTER (DPF) (page 135).

In some countries diesel may contain higher levers of Sulphur, which could cause damage to the vehicle, if in doubt contact a local Dealer/Authorised Repairer for advice.

RUNNING OUT OF FUEL

CAUTION

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTION - 1

Avoid running out of fuel. Doing so can cause damage to the vehicle's engine, fuel and emission control systems.

Note: 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 will need to be driven 1.6-5 km (1-3 miles) in order to reset the engine management and monitoring systems.

Note: If the vehicle does run out of fuel, seeking qualified assistance is advisable.

Diesel engines

Vehicles with diesel engines are equipped with a system to prevent the fuel tank from emptying completely. When the fuel reaches a minimum level, the system will activate a reduced power mode (i.e. the engine will not run properly). This will be followed by the engine stopping in approximately 1.6 km (1 mile).

This feature prevents the fuel system from running dry, which could cause damage to the vehicle. If the gauge indicates low fuel or the warning indicator illuminates, the fuel tank should be refuelled as soon as possible at the next filling station, with at least 4 litres (0.9 gallons) of fuel.

If the system protection function has activated, the vehicle must firstly be refuelled, then restarted using the following procedure:

  1. With the brake pedal pressed, press and hold the engine START/STOP button and crank the engine for five seconds.
  2. Release the START/STOP button.
  3. With the brake pedal pressed, press and release the START/STOP button to crank the engine. The engine should start within approximately five seconds.

Note: If the engine does not start, pause for ten seconds with the ignition in convenience mode, before repeating the procedure from the beginning.

CAUTION

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTION - 1

Do not crank the engine for longer than 30 seconds, or damage to the fuel pump may occur.

FUEL CUT-OFF

The fuel system cut-off forms part of the Supplementary Restraint System (SRS) fitted to your vehicle. Following an impact, and depending on the severity, the fuel pump may be switched off.

Resetting the fuel cut-off

WARNING

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 1

The fuel cut-off should never be reset if you can smell fuel, or a leak can be seen. Doing so can lead to a fire which may cause personal injury or death.

  1. Switch the ignition off and wait for one minute.
  2. Turn the ignition on for 30 seconds.
  3. Check the vehicle thoroughly for fuel leaks. If a leak is detected switch the ignition off immediately.
  4. Do not start the vehicle if a leak is present. Seek qualified advice and have the vehicle recovered.

  5. If no leaks are detected, start the vehicle.

REFUELLING

Fuel filler

WARNINGS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 1

When refuelling ensure that all windows, doors, and sunroof are fully closed, particularly if young children or animals are in the vehicle. Fuel vapour contains harmful chemical compounds, some of which may cause cancer.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 2

Do not attempt to fill the tank to its maximum capacity. If the vehicle is to be parked on a slope, in direct sunlight or high ambient temperature, expansion of the fuel could cause spillage. Filling station pumps are equipped with automatic cut-off sensing, to avoid fuel spillage. Fill the tank until the filler nozzle automatically cuts off supply. Do not attempt to fill the tank beyond this point.

CAUTIONS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTIONS - 1

Check the fuel pump information carefully, to ensure that you are putting the correct fuel into the vehicle. Filling a vehicle with the incorrect fuel can cause serious engine and fuel system damage.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTIONS - 2

It is the driver's responsibility to fill the vehicle with the correct fuel. If the vehicle is filled with the wrong type of fuel, do not start the engine. Call for Roadside Assistance.

Filling station pumps used for diesel commercial vehicles deliver fuel at a higher rate than normal. The higher fill rate can cause premature cut-off and may cause fuel spillage. Therefore, it is recommended that only standard light vehicle pumps are used.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTIONS - 3

natural_image Illustration of a hand using a fuel pump to adjust a car wheel (no text or symbols visible)

DIESEL MISFUELLING PROTECTION DEVICE

WARNINGS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 1

When the misfuelling protection device is activated, it could cause fuel to be discharged from the filler neck.

Diesel engine vehicles in some markets are equipped with a misfuelling protection device, incorporated into the fuel filler neck, designed to alert that the wrong fuel type has been selected. If the narrow filler nozzle fitted to pumps delivering unleaded petrol is correctly inserted (i.e. fully inserted) into the filler neck, the misfuel protection device will activate.

The protection device continually interrupts the fuel flow from the pump, until the protector mechanism in the filler neck is reset.

When activated, the yellow protection device will be visible in the filler neck. The device will need to be reset before the tank can be correctly filled with diesel fuel. This is achieved using the reset tool, located in the luggage compartment, clipped onto the battery restraining bar.

Note: It is the driver's responsibility to fill the vehicle with the correct fuel. The diesel misfuelling protection device only reduces the risk of filling the vehicle with the incorrect fuel.

CAUTIONS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTIONS - 1

Using the incorrect fuel can result in major damage to your vehicle's engine and fuel system.

Note: When refuelling the vehicle using a disposable fuel canister, use a canister designed for diesel fuel where possible. The spout on petrol canisters may activate the protection device. The device may also be activated by fuel pumps with a smaller nozzle than those fitted to standard diesel pumps.

Resetting the protection device
1 3 2 JAG1618

To reset the misfuelling protection device:

  1. Insert the reset tool (with the teeth uppermost) into the filler neck opening, as far as it will go. The triangular section on the reset tool stops on the protection device at the required insertion depth.
  2. Pivot the reset tool handle downwards to engage the teeth into the protection device.
  3. Keeping the reset tool handle held down, slowly pull the reset tool out of the filler neck to reset the misfuelling protection device.

Note: To ensure that the protection device is correctly reset, check that the yellow protector is no longer visible in the filler neck.

After resetting the misfuelling protection device, remove the tool from the filler neck and secure it to the battery restraining bar. If subsequent driveability difficulties are encountered, seek assistance from your Dealer/Authorised Repairer.

WARNINGS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 1

Never exceed the maximum weights for either the vehicle, or the trailer. Doing so can cause accelerated wear and damage to the vehicle. It can also adversely affect vehicle stability and braking, which in turn can lead to loss of control and increased braking distance resulting in a rollover or crash.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 2

To preserve handling and stability, only fit Jaguar approved towing accessories.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 3

Never use towing eyes or lashing points to tow a trailer. They have not been designed for this purpose and doing so may cause them to fail resulting in injury or death.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 4

When towing, do not exceed 100 km/h (60 mph) or 80 km/h (50 mph) if a temporary spare wheel is in use.

Note: It is the driver's responsibility to ensure that the towing vehicle, and the trailer are being used correctly, and in accordance with manufacturers recommendations and any applicable legislation.

Your Dealer/Authorised Repairer and main motoring and caravanning organisation can advise you on towing, towing weight capacities and about regulations that apply in other countries.

The following are important points of safety, stability and comfort, upon which further advice should be sought:

  • Maximum braked towing weight is permissible, provided that long periods of uphill driving on gradients over 8% are not undertaken.
  • In high altitude mountainous regions, the thinner atmosphere can reduce engine performance. Above 1000 metres (3250 feet), the stipulated maximum permitted gross train weight must be reduced by 10% for every 1000 metres (3250 feet) in altitude.

Towing

Diesel engine vehicles

The diesel engine management system incorporates sensors to determine optimum performance. It is also designed to protect the engine when arduous conditions are encountered during towing. When ambient temperature exceeds 40^ C ( 104^ F), the engine coolant temperature may increase above normal operating level. If this occurs, the management system will initiate a series of actions to restore normal operating conditions. The actions may include:

• A message centre message.
• Engine performance reduction.
- Air conditioning system cycling. The system temperature output will fluctuate between hot and cold, in order to dissipate engine heat. If engine overheat persists, the air conditioning will move to continuous heat output.

It is advisable to bring the vehicle and trailer to a convenient stop and allow the engine to idle until normal temperature is restored. Do not turn off the engine.

Trailer electrical connection

CAUTION

Only connect approved electrical circuits, which are in good condition to the trailer socket. Connecting incorrect, or faulty circuits may seriously damage the vehicle's electrical circuits.

Note: The rear parking sensors are automatically disabled when the trailer electrical connection is made using Jaguar approved towing equipment.

The vehicle's electrical system has been designed to support all towing requirements, and comply with legal requirements for the specific territory in which the vehicle is first sold.

LEVELLING

JAGUAR XF (2009) - LEVELLING - 1

natural_image Side-view diagram of a jet ski lift with attached vehicle and support structure (no text or symbols)

E95506

To maintain vehicle stability, it is essential that the trailer is loaded so that it remains parallel to the ground. This is particularly important when towing twin axled trailers.

Maximum permissible towing weights
Unbraked trailers 750 kg (1653 lb.)
Trailers with overrun brakes1850 kg (4080 lb.)
Nose/Tongue weight75 kg (165 lb.)

WARNING

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 1

Do not exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW), maximum rear axle weight, maximum trailer weight, or nose/tongue weight. Exceeding any of these limits could cause instability and loss of control. See WEIGHTS (page 259).

Nose/tongue weight must be the greater of 50 kg (110 lbs) or 7% of the actual trailer weight, up to the maximum tow hitch load. Nose/tongue weight can be measured using a proprietary brand of nose weight indicator. If it is necessary to increase the nose/tongue weight up to the maximum allowed, the vehicle load should be reduced accordingly. This ensures that the Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW), and maximum rear axle load, are not exceeded.

Note: When towing the maximum permissible gross vehicle weight can be increased by a maximum of 100 kg (220 lb.) provided that the road speed is limited to 100 km/h (60 mph).

Note: When calculating rear axle loading, remember that the trailer nose/tongue weight, the load in the vehicle's luggage area and the weight of rear seat passengers must all be added together.

Towing weights - Australia only

The weight of a trailer must not exceed 1.5 times the towing vehicle's weight. The nose/tongue weight must be a minimum of 7% of gross caravan/trailer weight, up to a maximum of 350~kg (722 lbs).

ESSENTIAL TOWING CHECKS

  • The trailer should be parallel to the ground when loaded and connected to the vehicle.
  • When calculating the laden weight of the trailer remember to include the weight of the trailer, plus the weight of the load.
  • If the load can be divided between the vehicle and trailer, loading more weight into the vehicle will generally improve stability. Do not exceed the vehicle's weight limits. See WEIGHTS (page 259).
  • Ensure that all applicable regulations and legislation are complied with when loading and towing a trailer.
  • Increase rear tyre pressures of the towing vehicle to those for maximum vehicle loading conditions.
  • Ensure trailer tyre pressures are set to trailer manufacturer's recommendations.
  • If the vehicle is loaded to maximum Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW) the nose weight is limited (see Towing weights table).
  • Ensure that a suitable breakaway cable or secondary coupling is used. Refer to the trailer manufacturer's instructions for guidance.
  • Ensure that the tow ball is secure.
  • Check the operation of all trailer lights.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTION - 1

Chrome polish, or other abrasive cleaners, must not be used on the vehicle's brightwork. The vehicle's brightwork should be cleaned using a sponge and generous quantities of cold or lukewarm water only. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a chamois leather or synthetic substitute.

For maximum protection against road dust, salts, industrial fall-out etc., it is recommended that the vehicle is polished regularly using Jaguar polish and a polishing cloth.

CLEANING THE INTERIOR

WARNING

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 1

Ensure that you read all of the information and instructions for use provided with cleaning products.

Some products contain substances that are harmful and can cause health problems if used incorrectly.

CAUTIONS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTIONS - 1

Some products, if used incorrectly can cause damage to the interior surfaces of the vehicle.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTIONS - 2

To prevent airbag damage, the steering wheel centre pad and other areas containing airbags should only be cleaned sparingly with a damp cloth, warm water and a non-detergent soap. Do not allow these areas to be flooded with chemical solvents, liquids, furniture cream or polishes.

Leather

Leather is an easy to maintain natural product. However, dust and substances can penetrate the pores and crease the leather, causing surface wear and brittleness.

To prevent ingrained dirt and staining, inspect the seat upholstery regularly and clean every one to two months, as follows:

  • Wipe off fine dust from the seat surfaces using a clean, damp, non-coloured cloth. Change frequently to a clean area of cloth, to avoid abrasive action on the leather surface. Avoid over-wetting.
  • If this is not sufficient, use a cloth which has been dampened with warm soapy water and then wrung out. Use only mild non-caustic soap.
  • Use Jaguar Leather Cleaner for heavily soiled areas. Dry off and rub with a clean soft cloth, changing surfaces regularly.

When staining (e.g. from clothing) or spillage occurs, clean the affected area immediately as described above.

Use Jaguar Leather Cleaner several times a year to maintain its appearance and suppleness. The cleaner will nourish and moisturise and help to improve the surface protective film against dust and substances.

  • Do not use solvents. Do not use detergents, furniture polish or household cleaners. While these products may initially give impressive results, their use will lead to rapid deterioration of the leather and will invalidate the warranty. Jaguar recommend a basic set of products that have been specially selected for the type of leather in your vehicle.
  • Dark clothing may stain leather seats just like other upholstery products.

  • Sharp objects such as belts, zip fasteners, rivets, etc., can leave permanent scratches and scratch marks on the leather surface.

  • Unless spillages such as tea, coffee or ink are washed away immediately, permanent staining may have to be accepted.

If a valet service is used, ensure that the specialist concerned is aware of, and follows, these instructions precisely.

Cloth and fabric

CAUTIONS

Never use soap, ammonia, bleach or other cleaners intended for use on hard surfaces.
Do not use upholstery cleaner on electrical equipment such as fascia switches.
When cleaning around electrical equipment such as switches, ensure that fluids do not leak into any gaps around the components or between panels or trim.

Use Jaguar Upholstery Cleaner, following the instructions. Avoid over-wetting.

Removing stains

Most stains on woollen fabric can be removed if treatment is carried out immediately, before the stain has a chance to dry-in.

Most stains can be treated with one of three cleaning fluids: Jaguar Upholstery Cleaner, dry cleaning fluid or clean water. Follow the instructions on the package.

Instrument pack, clock, and audio equipment

Only use a soft dry cloth to clean the instrument pack, clock and audio equipment. Do not use cleaning fluids or sprays.

Carpet and mats

Marks or stains can be removed by gentle scrubbing with a weak solution of soap and warm water.

For more stubborn stains a commercially available carpet cleaner should be used.

Seat belts

WARNING

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 1

Do not allow any water, cleaning products, or fabric from cloths to enter the seat belt mechanism. Any substance which enters the mechanism may affect the performance of the seat belt in an impact.

Extend the seat belts fully, then use warm water and a non-detergent soap to clean. Allow the seat belts to dry naturally whilst fully extended and do not allow the belts to retract until fully dry.

Note: Whilst cleaning the seat belt, take the opportunity to examine the webbing for damage and wear. Any wear or damage should be reported to, and rectified by, a Dealer/Authorised Repairer.

Airbag module covers

WARNINGS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 1

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 2

Do not allow the airbag covers, or surrounding areas, to become contaminated with liquids. Any

substance which enters the mechanism, can prevent correct deployment of an airbag during an impact.

REPAIRING MINOR PAINT DAMAGE

Regularly inspect the paintwork for damage. Any stone chips, fractures, or deep scratches, in the paint/bodywork should be repaired promptly. Bare metal will corrode quickly, and if left untreated can result in expensive repairs.

Minor chips and scratches can be touched up using materials and advice available from a Dealer/Authorised Repairer. Larger areas of damage will require professional repair, and you should consult a Dealer/Authorised Repairer.

GENERAL INFORMATION

CAUTION

Severe damage to the electrical system and electronic components can occur, if any attempt is made to diagnose faults in the electrical system using conventional diagnostic equipment (e.g. the use of test lamps or low impedance voltmeters). The fitting of any electrical accessory should only be entrusted to a Dealer/Authorised Repairer.

Regular systematic maintenance is the key to ensuring the continued reliability and efficiency of your vehicle.

Maintenance is the owner's responsibility and you must ensure that owner maintenance operations, oil services, inspections and brake fluid and coolant changes are carried out when required and according to the manufacturer's recommendations.

The routine maintenance requirements for your vehicle are shown in the Service Portfolio book. Most of this necessary workshop maintenance requires specialised knowledge and equipment, and should preferably be entrusted to a Dealer/Authorised Repairer.

Service Portfolio

The Service Portfolio book includes a Service Record section, which enables a record to be kept of all the servicing and inspections that are carried out on the vehicle. This section of the book also has an area for brake fluid changes to be recorded.

Ensure your service provider signs and stamps the book after each service and inspection.

Owner maintenance

CAUTION

Any significant or sudden drop in fluid levels, or uneven tyre wear, should be reported to a qualified technician without delay.

In addition to the routine services and inspections, a number of simple checks must be carried out more frequently. These checks can be carried out by the owner and advice is given on the pages that follow.

Daily checks

  • Operation of lamps, horn, direction indicators, wipers, washers and warning indicators.
    • Operation of seat belts and brakes.
  • Look for fluid deposits underneath the vehicle that might indicate a leak. Condensation drips from the air conditioning is normal.

Weekly checks

CAUTION

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTION - 1

Ensure that you take notice of any message centre information and warnings relating to engine oil level (V8 petrol and diesel engines only). Top-up the level when advised to do so. See ENGINE OIL CHECK - V8 Petrol engines (page 199).

  • Engine oil level (non-electronic dipstick vehicles). See ENGINE OIL CHECK - V6 Petrol engines (page 197).
    • Engine coolant check. See ENGINE COOLANT CHECK (page 204).
  • Brake fluid level. See BRAKE FLUID CHECK (page 206).

  • Operate air conditioning. See AUTOMATIC CLIMATE CONTROL (page 116).

Note: The engine oil level on V6 petrol engines, should be checked more frequently if the vehicle is driven for prolonged periods at high speeds. The engine oil level on diesel and V8 petrol engines is checked automatically at all times by the electronic dipstick.

Severe driving conditions

When a vehicle is operated in severe conditions, more frequent attention must be paid to servicing requirements.

Severe driving conditions include:

  • Driving in dusty and/or sandy conditions.
  • Driving on rough and/or muddy roads and/or wading.

  • Driving in extremely hot or cold conditions.

  • Driving in areas using road salt or other corrosive materials.
  • Towing a trailer or driving in mountainous conditions.

Contact your Dealer/Authorised Repairer for advice.

Emission control

Your vehicle is fitted with various items of emission and evaporative control equipment, designed to meet specific territorial requirements. You should be aware that unauthorised replacement, modification or tampering with this equipment by an owner or repair shop, may be unlawful and subject to legal penalties.

In addition, engine settings must not be tampered with. These have been established to ensure that your vehicle complies with stringent exhaust emission regulations. Incorrect engine settings may adversely affect exhaust emissions, engine performance and fuel consumption. They may also cause high temperatures, which will result in damage to the catalytic converter and the vehicle.

Road testing dynamometers (rolling roads)

Because your vehicle is equipped with anti-lock brakes, it is essential that any dynamometer testing is carried out only by a qualified person, familiar with the dynamometer testing and safety procedures practised by Dealers/Authorised Repairers.

ENGINE OIL CHECK - V6 Petrol engines

CAUTIONS

If the message ENGINE OIL PRESSURE LOW is displayed, stop the engine as soon as it is safe to do so and seek qualified assistance. Do not start the engine until the cause has been identified and rectified.

Your vehicle's warranty may be invalidated if damage is caused by the use of improper engine oil. Low quality or obsolete oils do not provide the protection required by modern, high performance engines. Failure to use an oil that meets the required specification could cause excessive engine wear, a build up of sludge and deposits and increased pollution. It could also lead to engine failure.

Do not use oil additives of any type as engine damage could occur. Use only specified lubricants.

The oil consumption of an engine is influenced by many factors. Under high loads an engine will consume more oil than usual. Diesel engines consume slightly more oil than petrol engines.

Above normal oil consumption should be expected when the engine is new.

Check the oil level weekly, when the engine is cold and with the vehicle resting on level ground.

Checking the oil level

Note: If it is necessary to check the oil level when the engine is hot, switch off the engine and let stand for five minutes to allow the oil to drain into the sump. Do not start the engine.

JAG1524 1 2 MAX MIN JAG1524

  1. Withdraw the dipstick (1) and wipe the blade clean with a lint free cloth.
  2. Fully re-insert the dipstick and withdraw again to check the oil level. Never allow the oil level to fall below the lower mark or notch on the dipstick.

As a general guide, if the level on the dipstick:

  • Is nearer to the upper mark or notch than the lower, add no oil.
  • Is nearer to the lower mark or notch than the upper, add half a litre (one pint) of oil.
  • Is below the lower mark or notch, add one litre (two pints) of oil and re-check the level after a further five minutes.

Topping up the oil

CAUTIONS

Your vehicle warranty may be invalidated if damage is caused by using oil that does not meet the required specification.
Failure to use an oil that meets the required specification could cause excessive engine wear, a build up of sludge and deposits, and increase pollution. It could also lead to engine failure.
Overfilling with oil could result in severe engine damage. Oil should be added in small quantities and the level re-checked to ensure that the engine is not overfilled.

  1. Unscrew the oil filler cap (2).
  2. Add oil to maintain the level between the MIN and MAX marks or notches on the dipstick. Clean up any oil spilled during topping-up.
  3. Check the oil level again after 5 minutes. It is essential to use the correct specification oil, and to ensure it is suitable for the climatic conditions in which the vehicle is to be operated.

Note: The approximate quantity of oil required to raise the level from MIN to MAX on the dipstick is 1.0 litre (1.76 pints).

Engine oil consumption

A certain amount of oil consumption is normal. The rate of consumption will depend on the following:

• The quality and viscosity of the oil.
- Climatic conditions.
- The speed at which the engine is being operated.
- Road conditions.

Drivers should expect above normal consumption when the engine is new.

Checking the oil level

For an accurate oil level reading to be taken, the following conditions must be met:

- The vehicle needs to be parked on level ground.

  • The oil level should be checked when the oil is hot. It is therefore recommended that a reading is taken after a journey.
  • The vehicle needs to stand for approximately 10 minutes after the engine is switched off, to allow the oil to drain back into the sump.

Note: The system will not give a reading until the oil level has stabilised.

Once the above conditions are met, check the oil level as follows:

  1. Switch on the ignition - do not start the engine.
  2. Set the transmission to Park (P).
  3. Press the TRIP button on the end of the left-hand column stalk repeatedly, until the oil can icon is displayed at the bottom of the message centre.

CAUTIONS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTIONS - 1

The use of non-approved antifreeze will have an adverse effect on the engine g system and therefore engine ility.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTIONS - 2

Antifreeze will damage painted surfaces; soak up any spillage with an absorbent immediately and wash the area with a re of car shampoo and water.

Antifreeze contains important corrosion inhibitors. The antifreeze content of the coolant must be maintained at 50% ± 5% all year round (not just in cold conditions). To ensure that the anti-corrosion properties of the coolant are retained, the antifreeze content should be checked once a year and completely renewed every ten years, regardless of distance travelled. Failure to do so may cause corrosion of the radiator and engine components.

The specific gravity of a 50% antifreeze solution at 20^ C ( 68^ F) is 1.068 and protects against frost down to -40^ C ( -40^ F).

Battery electrolyte is both corrosive and toxic, and can damage a wide range of materials if left.

Your vehicle is fitted with a low maintenance battery, which is located under the floor of the luggage compartment.

In hot climates more frequent checks of the battery electrolyte level and condition are required. If necessary, the battery cells can be topped up using distilled water.

When the ignition is switched on, but without the engine running, BATTERY NOT CHARGING is displayed in the message centre. The battery will only charge when the engine is running.

Note: Do not connect any 12 volt equipment (e.g. a 12 volt inspection lamp), directly to the battery terminals. Use the accessory socket located in the cubby box, for connecting Jaguar approved accessories.

Battery Monitoring System (BMS)

Your vehicle is equipped with a Battery Monitoring System (BMS) which manages the battery charging system and, if excessive battery discharge is occurring when the engine isn't running, shuts down non-essential electrical systems to protect battery power.

In the event that too many electrical systems are operational when the engine is not running, and the battery charge is insufficient, the audio and entertainment systems (if active) and climate control system will be switched off. This will be confirmed by a low battery warning message displayed on the touch-screen. If this occurs, switch on and run the engine for at least five minutes, preferably with all auxiliary electrical systems switched off (e.g. lights, wipers, climate control, seat heaters etc.).

Note: The audio system can be operated during this five minute period when the engine is running.

If the engine is switched off before the five minute period ends and the audio system is switched on, the warning message will re-appear on the touch-screen and the audio, entertainment and climate control systems will switch off again. For this reason, it is important that the engine is left running for the full five minute period.

Charging faults

If there is a fault in the battery charging system, CHARGING FAULT is displayed with red backlighting in the message centre. If this occurs, switch off all non-essential electrical systems and seek qualified assistance at the earliest opportunity.

TYRE CARE

WARNINGS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 1

Defective tyres are dangerous. Do not drive the vehicle if a tyre is damaged, excessively worn, or incorrectly

inflated. failure.

Doing so may lead to premature tyre

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 2

Avoid contaminating the tyres with vehicle fluids as they may cause damage to the tyre.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 3

Avoid spinning the wheels. The forces released can damage the structure of the tyre and cause it to fail. Doing so may lead to premature tyre failure.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 4

If wheel spin is unavoidable due to a loss of traction (in deep snow, for example), do not exceed the 50 km/h

(30 mph) may lead

) point on the speedometer. Doing so I to premature tyre failure.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 5

Do not exceed the maximum pressure stated on the sidewall of the tyre.

Over-inflation could cause the tyre to fail suddenly.

Tyre pressures

WARNINGS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 1

Never drive your vehicle if the tyre pressures are incorrect.

Under-inflation causes excessive

flexing and uneven tyre wear. This can lead to sudden tyre failure. Over-inflation causes a harsh ride, uneven tyre wear and poor handling.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 2

Pressure checks should only be carried out when the tyres are cold, and the vehicle has been stationary

for more than three hours. A hot tyre at or below recommended cold inflation pressure is dangerously under-inflated.

WARNINGS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 1

If the vehicle has been parked in strong sunlight, or used in high ambient temperatures do not reduce the tyre pressures. move the vehicle into the shade and allow the tyres to cool before re-checking the pressures.

All of the vehicle's tyres (including the spare) should be checked regularly for damage, wear and distortion. If you are in any doubt about the condition of a tyre, have it checked immediately by a tyre repair centre or your Dealer/Authorised repairer.

Checking the tyre pressures

WARNING

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 1

Tyre pressures should be checked regularly using an accurate pressure gauge, when the tyres are cold. Failure to properly maintain your tyre pressures could increase the risk of tyre failure resulting in loss of vehicle control and personal injury.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 2

natural_image Line drawing of a car interior showing lane markings and a directional arrow (no text or symbols)

E95180

The recommended tyre pressures are listed on a placard label fixed to the end of the left-hand side door. These pressures provide optimum ride and handling characteristics for all normal operating conditions.

If winter tyres are fitted, please refer to the winter tyre pressure information. See USING WINTER TYRES (page 223).

In the interest of safety, reliability and fuel efficiency, check the tyres, including the spare, for condition and pressure on a weekly basis and before long journeys.

Do not check tyre pressures immediately after the vehicle has travelled in excess of 1.6 km (1.0 mile). Tyre temperatures and pressures increase when running. Deflating a warm tyre to the recommended pressure will result in under-inflation.

If tyre pressures are checked while the vehicle is inside a protected covered area, e.g. a garage, and subsequently driven in lower outdoor temperatures, tyre under-inflation could occur.

A slight pressure loss occurs naturally with time. If this exceeds 0.14 bar (2 lbf/in ^2 , 14 kPa,) per week, have the cause investigated and rectified by qualified assistance.

Tyre pressures (including the spare) should be checked at least once a week with normal on-road use, but should be checked daily if the vehicle is used off-road. Always check the tyre pressures before setting off on a long journey. If it is necessary to check tyre pressures when the tyres are warm, you should expect the pressures to have increased by up to 0.3-0.4 bar (4-6 lbf/in ^2 , 30-40 kpa). Do not reduce the tyre pressures to the cold inflation pressure under these circumstances. Allow the tyres to cool fully before adjusting the pressures.

The following procedure should be used to check and adjust the tyres pressures.

  1. Remove the valve cap.
  2. Firmly attach a tyre pressure gauge/inflator to the valve.
  3. Read the tyre pressure from the gauge, and add air if required.
  4. If air is added to the tyre, remove the gauge and re-attach it before reading the pressure. Failure to do so may result in an inaccurate reading.
  5. If the tyre pressure is too high, remove the gauge and allow air out of the tyre by pressing the centre of the valve. Refit the gauge to the valve and check the pressure.
  6. Repeat the process adding or removing air as required until the correct tyre pressure is reached.
  7. Refit the valve cap.

Note: It is an offence in certain countries to drive a vehicle with incorrect tyre pressures.

Note: It is the driver's responsibility to ensure that the tyre pressures are correct.

Tyre valves

Keep the valve caps screwed down firmly to prevent water or dirt entering the valve. Check the valves for leaks when checking the tyre pressures.

Pressure compensation for ambient temperature changes

If the intended journey will take the vehicle into an area where the ambient local temperature is known to be lower than the journey start point, tyre pressure under-inflation could occur.

E95181

A colder ambient local temperature will reduce pressure within the tyre. An effect is to decrease sidewall height and to increase tyre shoulder wear with the potential for tyre failure. Vehicle dynamics could also be adversely affected.

In order to minimise this effect, tyre pressures can be adjusted to compensate before the start of the journey. Alternatively, tyre pressures can be adjusted when the area of lower ambient temperature is reached.

In this situation, the vehicle must be left in the ambient local temperature for a least one hour before tyre pressure is adjusted.

To compensate for colder ambient temperatures, tyre pressures should be increased by 0.14 bar (2lbf/in², 14 kPa) for each 10°C (20°F) decrease.

Note: Ensure that correct tyre pressures are maintained when moving to areas of differing ambient temperature.

The Tyre Pressure Monitoring system (TPM system) may issue a warning if the under-inflation becomes significant. When driving through variable climatic conditions the TPM system warnings may be intermittent.

Tyre pressures during long term vehicle storage

To minimise the possibility and effects of flat spots during storage, the tyres may be inflated to the maximum pressure indicated on the tyre wall.

Note: Before using the stored vehicle on the road again, ensure that correct tyre pressures are restored.

Flat spots

If the vehicle is stationary for a long period, when the ambient temperature is high, the tyres may form flat spots. When the vehicle is driven, these flat spots will cause a vibration which will steadily disappear as the tyres warm up and regain their original shape.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - Flat spots - 1

natural_image Three progressive tire wheel illustrations showing clockwise motion with arrows indicating rotation (no text or symbols)

E80322

In order to minimise flat spotting, the tyre pressures can be increased. Tyre pressures should be increased by 0.14 bar/14 kPa (2 lbf/in²) for each 10°C (20°F) temperature increase above 20°C (68°F)

Long term storage

Flat spotting can be minimised during long term storage, by increasing the tyre pressures to the maximum indicated on the tyre sidewall.

Note: The tyre pressures should be reduced to the correct pressure before the vehicle is driven.

Tyre wear

Good driving practise will improve the mileage you obtain from your tyres, and avoid unnecessary damage.

  • Always ensure that the tyre pressures are correctly adjusted.
  • Always observe the posted speed limits, and advisory speeds for bends.
  • Avoid pulling away quickly, or hard acceleration.
  • Avoid making fast turns or braking sharply.
  • Wherever possible, avoid potholes, or obstacles on the road.
  • Do not drive up kerbs, or rub the tyres against them when parking.

Wear indicators

WARNING

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 1

Wear indicators show the minimum tread depth recommended by the manufacturers. Tyres which have worn to this point will have reduced grip and poor water displacement characteristics.

CAUTION

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTION - 1

If tread wear is uneven across a tyre, or the tyre wears excessively, the vehicle should be checked by your Dealer/Authorised Repairer as soon as possible.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTION - 2

natural_image Abstract pattern of interlocking curved lines and stripes, no text or symbols present

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTION - 3

natural_image Abstract graphic with three black arrows pointing downward on a textured gray background (no text or symbols)

When the tread has worn down to approximately 2 mm, wear indicators start to appear at the surface of the tread pattern. This produces a continuous band of rubber across the tread as a visual indicator.

To maintain performance and grip the tyre must be replaced as soon as the wear indicator becomes visible. Sooner, if legislation requires replacement at a greater tread depth.

Note: Tread depth should be checked regularly, in some case more frequently than the service intervals. For advice on checking tyres contact your Dealer/Authorised repairer or a tyre dealer.

Age degradation

Tyres degrade over time due to the effects of ultraviolet light, extreme temperatures, high loads, and environmental conditions. It is recommended that tyres are replaced at least every six years, but they may require replacement more frequently.

Jaguar recommends that even if unused, the spare tyre be replaced at the same time as the four road tyres.

Punctured tyres

WARNING

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 1

Do not drive the vehicle with a punctured tyre. Even if the punctured tyre has not deflated, it is unsafe to use, as the tyre may deflate suddenly at any time. See TYRE REPAIR KIT (page 229).

Tyre checks

Not all punctures result in the tyre deflating immediately. Therefore, it is important to check the tyres for damage and foreign objects, regularly.

When driving, if a sudden vibration, or change to the vehicle's handling is noticed, reduce speed immediately. Do not brake hard, or make any sudden manoeuvres or direction changes. Drive slowly to an area off the main highway and stop the vehicle.

Note: Driving the vehicle to a safe area may cause damage to the punctured tyre, but occupant safety is far more important.

Inspect the tyres for signs of punctures, damage or under inflation. If any damage or deformity is detected, the tyre should be replaced. If a spare tyre is not available, then the vehicle should be recovered to a tyre repair centre, or Dealer/Approved repairer.

WARNINGS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 1

Do not fit cross-ply tyres.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 2

Do not fit tubed tyres.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 3

Do not swap tyres around the vehicle. Tyres bed in to the specific characteristics of each wheel

position. Swapping them around may affect the vehicle's handling and traction.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 4

Always fit replacement tyres of the same type, and wherever possible of the same make and tread pattern.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 5

Replacement wheels should be genuine Jaguar parts. This will maintain the designed driving characteristics.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 6

If the use of tyres not recommended by Jaguar is unavoidable, ensure that you read, and fully comply with, the

tyre manufacturers instructions. Failure to do so, may lead to tyre failure due to incorrect fitment or use.

Ideally, tyres should be replaced in sets of four. If this is not possible, replace the tyres in pairs (front and rear). When tyres are replaced, the wheels should always be re-balanced and alignment checked.

The correct tyre specification for your vehicle can be found on the tyre information label.

USING SNOW CHAINS

CAUTION

It is essential that only snow chains of the recommended type are fitted, other snow chains may cause damage to the vehicle.

Snow chains, of the recommended type, can only be fitted to rear wheels. They should not be used on temporary use spare wheels.

You should contact your Dealer/Authorised Repairer for details and availability of approved snow chains.

The maximum speed when using snow chains is 50 km/h (30 mph).

Remove the snow chains immediately the roads are clear of snow.

Ensure the fitting instructions supplied with the snow chains are kept in a safe place, for example, with this literature pack.

Note: When using snow chains, select JaguarDrive Control Winter mode with DSC switched on.

RUN FLAT TYRES

WARNING

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 1

If a run-flat tyre is deflated, maximum vehicle speed must not exceed 80 km/h (50 mph).

RSC E91708

Run-flat tyres can be identified by the lettering RSC on the sidewall. The tyre construction utilises a specially reinforced sidewall, which allows the vehicle to be driven at restricted speeds, even when the tyre is depressurised. Run-flat tyres can only be fitted to special rims, constructed for run-flat tyre use.

A tyre pressure monitoring system is mandatory when the vehicle is fitted with run-flat tyres. See TYRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (page 234).

If the tyre has deflated, the vehicle should be driven with caution, as handling characteristics will be different compared to a fully inflated tyre.

If the vehicle is fully laden with passengers and luggage, the maximum distance that can be completed on a fully deflated tyre, is approximately 80 kilometres (50 miles).

Stop immediately if the tyre construction begins to break down or if the tyre dislodges from the wheel rim. Typically, this will be accompanied by excessive vibration.

A tyre driven in a deflated condition must be replaced as soon as possible.

Vehicles fitted with run-flat tyres are not fitted with a spare wheel or jacking equipment. Therefore, run-flat tyres should be replaced with the same type of tyre.

TOOL KIT

Tool kit contents
2 5 1 4 3 E95183

  1. Jack.
  2. Wheel brace.
  3. Chock.
  4. Locking wheel nut adaptor.
  5. Towing eye.

WARNING

After use, the tool kit should be returned to the under floor storage area and correctly stowed. Do not leave the tool kit or its components loose in the storage area, as they can prove hazardous during an impact or sudden manoeuvre.

Note: When returning the tool kit to its stowage position, hook the T-bar of the clamp over the jack handle, to secure in position.

Note: The jack requires occasional maintenance. Examine the jack for wear, damage or corrosion and lubricate the moving parts.

CHANGING A ROAD WHEEL

WARNINGS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 1

Always ensure replacement tyres have the correct rating and specifications (e.g. load index, size, speed rating) for your vehicle.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 2

When using tyres other than those recommended by Jaguar, do not exceed the speed capacity recommended by the manufacturer.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 3

Wheels are extremely heavy. Take care when lifting and particularly when removing and replacing a wheel in its storage position in the luggage compartment.

If a wheel change is required, pull off the road completely. Park on ground which is as level and solid as possible. Ensure that the vehicle is clear of any objects that will obstruct the safe removal of the wheel. Switch on hazard warning lamps and, where legally required, display the warning triangle.

Regular maintenance of tyres contributes not only to safety, but to the designed function of the vehicle. Road-holding, steering and braking are especially vulnerable to incorrectly pressurised, badly fitted or worn tyres.

Tyres of the correct size and type, but of different make can have widely varying characteristics. It is therefore recommended that Jaguar approved tyres are fitted to all wheels.

CAUTION

Ultra high performance tyres. This vehicle is equipped with an Ultra High Performance (UHP) tyre and wheel combination designed to give maximum dry road performance with consideration for aquaplaning resistance. UHP tyres have performance enhancing soft rubber tread compound. If driven aggressively they may suffer rapid tread wear and a shorter life than can be expected from other tyre types. This wheel and tyre combination is more susceptible to damage from road hazards.

Do not use this combination for driving on snow or ice. High performance tyres must be replaced with winter tyres when weather conditions dictate.

Temporary use spare wheel

Observe the following warnings before using the wheel:

WARNINGS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 1

Wheel changing procedure

WARNINGS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 1

Do not attempt to lift the vehicle unless the jack head is fully engaged in the jacking point.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 2

Ensure that the park brake is applied.

CAUTION

Ensure before raising the vehicle that the jack is correctly positioned to avoid any damage to the vehicle sills or sill panels.

  1. Ensure that all passengers are in a safe place, clear of the vehicle.
  2. Apply the parking brake and select gear position P (Park).
  3. Ensure that the jack is placed on firm and level ground.

Observe the instructions printed on the jack. Use the jack only for lifting the vehicle during wheel changing and only use the jack which is stored in the vehicle.

Before raising the vehicle slacken but do not remove the wheel nuts.

There are four jacking points on the underside of the floor. Two indented, triangular indicators are provided on each sill cover. These indicate the location for the jack.

The simplest way to correctly locate the jacking point is to feel along the sill panel to the triangular indentation and then fit the jack to the body, not to the sill panel.

Carefully raise the vehicle by turning the jack handle. Stop jacking the vehicle when the tyre just clears the ground. Minimum tyre lift gives maximum vehicle stability.

Remove the wheel nuts and the wheel.

To remove the centre badge use the plastic tipped end of the wheel nut wrench handle, push the centre badge from its housing from the inside of the wheel.

Push the centre badge into the replacement wheel. If the temporary use spare wheel is to be fitted, keep the centre badge safely and fit it to the repaired full size wheel when it has been refitted.

CAUTIONS

Before attempting a tyre repair, ensure that the vehicle is parked safely, as far away from passing traffic as possible.
Ensure that the parking brake is applied and P (Park) is selected.
Do not attempt to remove foreign objects such as nails, screws, etc. from the tyre.
Always run the engine when using the compressor, unless the vehicle is in an enclosed or poorly ventilated space, as this may cause asphyxiation.
To prevent overheating, do not operate the compressor continuously for longer than ten minutes.

Note: All vehicle drivers and occupants should be made aware that a temporary repair has been made to a tyre fitted to the vehicle. They should also be made aware of the special driving conditions imposed when using a repaired tyre.

Repair procedure

WARNING

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 1

Check the tyre sidewall prior to inflation. If there are any cracks, bumps or similar damage, do not attempt to inflate the tyre. Do not stand directly beside the tyre while the compressor is pumping. Watch the tyre sidewall. If any cracks, bumps or similar damage appear, turn off the compressor and let the air out by means of the pressure relief valve. Do not continue to use the tyre.

  1. Open the tyre repair kit and peel off the maximum speed label. Attach the label to the fascia in the driver's field of vision. Take care not to obstruct any of the instruments or warning lights.
  2. Uncoil the compressor power cable and the inflation hose.
  3. Unscrew the orange cap from the sealant bottle receiver and the sealant bottle cap.
  4. Screw the sealant bottle into the receiver (clockwise) until tight.

- Screwing the bottle onto the receiver will pierce the bottle's seal. Do not unscrew a full, or partly used bottle from the receiver. Doing so will result in sealant leaking from the bottle.

  1. Remove the valve cap from the damaged tyre.
  2. Remove the protective cap from the inflation hose and connect the inflation hose to the tyre valve. Ensure that the hose is screwed on firmly.
  3. Ensure that the compressor switch is in the off (0) position.
  4. Insert the power cable connector into the auxiliary power socket. See AUXILIARY POWER SOCKETS (page 125).

  5. Unless the vehicle is in an enclosed area, start the engine.

  6. Set the compressor switch to the on (I) position.
  7. Inflate the tyre to a minimum of 1.9 bar (26 lbf/in ^2 ) and a maximum of 3.5 bar (51 lbf/in ^2 ).

- When pumping the sealant through the tyre valve, the pressure may rise up to 6 bar (87 lbf/in ^2 ). The pressure will drop again after approximately 30 seconds.

  1. During the inflation, switch the compressor off briefly, to check the tyre pressure using the gauge mounted on the compressor.
  2. It should not take longer than seven minutes to inflate the tyre. If, after seven minutes, the tyre has not yet reached minimum pressure, the tyre should not be used.
  3. 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.
  4. Remove the power connector from the auxiliary power socket.
  5. Remove the inflation hose from the tyre valve, by unscrewing it as quickly as possible (counter-clockwise).
  6. Replace the inflation hose protective cap and the tyre valve cap.
  7. Do not remove the sealant bottle from the receiver.
  8. 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.

  9. 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

WARNINGS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 1

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 lb/in ^2 ), do not continue driving.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 2

Consult a tyre repair centre or your Dealer/Authorised Repairer, for advice concerning the replacement of a tyre after using a tyre repair kit.

  2. Make sure that the sealant container section is in its original position.
  3. Screw the inflation hose 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 lb/in ^2 ) adjust the pressure to the correct value. See TYRE CARE (page 217).
  6. Ensure that the compressor switch is in the off (0) position and insert the power cable connector into the auxiliary power socket.

If the vehicle is in a well ventilated area, start the engine.

  1. Switch the compressor to on (I) and inflate the tyre to the correct pressure.
  2. To check the tyre pressure, turn off the compressor then read the pressure from the gauge.
  3. When the compressor is off, if the tyre pressure is too high, release the required amount of pressure using the pressure relief valve.
  4. Once the tyre is inflated to the correct pressure, switch off the compressor and remove the power plug from the auxiliary socket.

- The use of the tyre repair kit sealant may lead to error prompts and incorrect readings of the Tyre Pressure Monitoring System. Therefore, use the tyre repair kit pressure gauge to check and adjust the damaged tyre's inflation pressure.

  1. Unscrew the inflation hose connector from the tyre valve, replace the tyre valve cap and the inflation hose connector protective cap.
  2. Ensure that the tyre repair kit is placed securely in the vehicle.
  3. Drive to the nearest tyre repair centre or Dealer/Authorised Repairer, for a replacement tyre to be fitted. Ensure that you make the repair centre aware that the tyre repair kit has been used before the tyre is removed.
  4. Both the tyre inflation hose, and the sealant container should be replaced once a new tyre has been fitted.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 3

Only sealant containers which are completely empty should be disposed of with normal household waste. Sealant containers which contain some sealant, and the tyre inflation hose, should be disposed of by a tyre specialist or your Dealer/Authorised Repairer, in compliance with local waste disposal regulations.

TYRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM

WARNINGS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 1

The Tyre Pressure Monitoring (TPM) system is NOT a substitute for manually checking tyre pressures.

The TPM system only provides a low pressure warning and does not re-inflate your tyres. Tyre pressures should be checked regularly using an accurate pressure gauge when cold. Failure to properly maintain your pressures could increase the risk of tyre failure, with consequential loss of vehicle control and personal injury.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 2

The TPM system can NOT register damage to a tyre. Regularly check the condition of your tyres, especially if the vehicle is driven off-road.

CAUTION

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTION - 1

When inflating tyres, care should be taken to avoid bending or damaging the TPM system valves. Always ensure correct alignment of the inflation head to the valve stem.

Note: Non-approved accessories may interfere with the system. If this occurs, TYRE PRESSURE SYSTEM FAULT is displayed in the message centre.

Note: Different types of tyre may affect the performance of the TPM system. Always replace tyres in accordance with recommendations. See TYRE SPECIFICATIONS - ARDUOUS TERRAIN (page 239).

Your vehicle may be equipped with a TPM System which monitors pressure in each tyre (temporary use spare wheels are not fitted with sensors and are consequently not monitored).

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTION - 2

natural_image Technical illustration of two mechanical components with numbered callouts (1 and 2), no text or symbols present.

E91713

Wheels fitted with a TPM system can be easily visually identified by the external metal lock nut and valve (1). All Jaguar non-TPM system wheels have a rubber valve fitted (2).

TPM system operation

The TPM system monitors pressure of the tyres via sensors located in each wheel and a receiver located within the vehicle. Communication between sensor and receiver is via Radio Frequency (RF) signals.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - TPM system operation - 1

The tyre pressure warning comprises a yellow warning telltale within the instrument panel, and

the associated messages within the message centre.

PRNDS CHECK TYRE PRESSURE Auto : 29 km Inst Fu : 1/100km E95244

If the telltale light illuminates, you should stop and check your tyres as soon as possible and inflate them to the recommended pressure as stated on the tyre pressure placard. If low pressure warnings occur frequently, the cause must be determined and rectified.

When driving through variable climatic conditions the TPM system warnings may be intermittent.

Your vehicle will also indicate a TPM System malfunction by initially flashing and subsequent continuous illumination of the warning telltale. A text message will accompany the system malfunction and will display TYRE PRESSURE SYSTEM FAULT. The TPM system fault sequence will be activated at every ignition cycle until the fault is rectified. When a malfunction occurs, the system may not be able to detect or signal low tyre pressure as intended.

TPM system malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons which may include other radio frequency systems that could cause interference or the installation of incompatible replacement tyres on the vehicle.

Tyre pressure warning with speed

If the vehicle is to be driven at speeds in excess of 160 km/h (100 mph), the tyre pressures should be increased as stated in this handbook or on the placard label. Failure to increase the tyre pressures and driving in excess of 160 km/h (100 mph), will illuminate the yellow warning telltale and display a text message TYRE PRESSURES LOW FOR SPEED. In the event of this warning being displayed, vehicle speed should be reduced

Temporary use spare wheel and tyre change

If the temporary use spare wheel is fitted the system will automatically recognise the change in wheel positions. Then after approximately ten minutes of driving above 25 km/h (18 mph), a message TYRE NOT MONITORED will be displayed accompanied by illumination of the warning telltale and the corresponding block in the vehicle graphic.

The warning telltale will initially flash and will subsequently revert to continuous illumination. Extended use of the temporary use spare wheel will produce an additional text message TYRE PRESSURE SYSTEM FAULT.

This TPM system display sequence will be activated at every ignition cycle until the temporary use spare wheel is replaced by a fully operational full size wheel and tyre assembly.

Always replace the temporary use wheel before having TPM system faults investigated. The fault may well be rectified with the fitment of a fully operational full size running tyre in lieu of the temporary use spare wheel assembly.

Tyre changing

Always have your tyres serviced or changed by a qualified engineer.

Care must be taken to avoid contact between the bead of the tyre and the sensor during removal and refitting of the tyre, otherwise the sensor may become damaged and or inoperable.

CAUTION

Valve stem seal, washer, nut, valve core and cap should be replaced at every tyre change. Valve stem seal, washer and nut must be replaced if valve retention nut is loosened. Sensor units and nuts must be refitted using correct torque figures and associated profile. Damage to the vehicle may result if these precautions are not taken.

Sensors can be removed from the wheel by the unscrewing of the valve retention nut.

Replacement sensor

Should the sensor require replacing, it should be carried out by a Dealer/Authorised Repairer.

A replacement sensor must be fitted to a running wheel in order to be recognised by the system. The vehicle needs to be stationary for 15 minutes during the sensor fitment before the system is ready to detect the new sensor. The vehicle must be driven for a minimum of fifteen minutes after the sensor change, and then remain stationary for fifteen minutes to activate full TPM system operation.

If the TPM system warning for any wheel does not clear, even after ensuring correct inflation and driving for more than ten minutes above 25 km/h (18 mph), you should seek qualified assistance as soon as possible.

WARNING

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 1

Contact your Dealer/Authorised Repairer before fitting any accessory wheels and tyres. Your Dealer/Authorised Repairer will be able to offer guidance regarding the correct accessories. Fitting incorrect wheel/tyre combinations can seriously affect the ride and handling of your vehicle. In extreme cases, this may lead to loss of control of the vehicle.

CHANGING A FUSE

CAUTIONS

Always turn off the ignition system and the affected electrical circuit, before replacing a fuse.
Fit Jaguar approved replacement fuses of the same rating and type, or fuses of matching specification. Using an incorrect fuse may result in damage to the vehicle's electrical system, and can result in a fire.
No attempt should be made to repair a fuse that has blown.
If the replacement fuse blows after installation, the system should be checked by your Dealer/Authorised Repairer.

Note: Jaguar recommend that owners do not remove or replace relays. It is recommended that you seek qualified assistance in the event of a relay failure.

Always switch off the ignition and the affected electrical circuit, before replacing a fuse.

Fuse failure is identified by an inoperative circuit.

A special tool for removing and replacing Mini fuses is provided in the engine compartment fuse box, together with spare fuses.

Diagram showing car battery connector assembly and inspection of a plug-in connector, with labeled parts 1 and 2.

E95262

natural_image Diagram showing a car being stopped by a vehicle, with a cross symbol indicating the vehicle's origin (no text or labels present)

E95304

The recommended method for recovery/transportation of the vehicle, is on a transporter or trailer designed for that purpose.

Ensure that transportation is carried out by suitably qualified persons, and that the vehicle is secured correctly.

If the vehicle is being transported on a trailer or vehicle flat-bed transporter, the parking brake must be applied, the wheels are chocked and the Emergency Park Release (EPR) operated, to ensure that the transmission remains in N and does not automatically select P.

Emergency Park Release (EPR)

When recovering your vehicle, it is essential that the EPR is operated. EPR prevents the transmission from automatically selecting P, ensuring that the transmission remains in neutral (N). EPR is operated by a lever located behind a trim panel in the cubby box. Before activating the EPR, select P, apply the parking brake and turn the ignition off.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNINGS - 2

If the engine cannot be run whilst the vehicle is being towed, there will be no power assistance for the steering or brakes. This will result in greater effort being required to steer or slow the vehicle, and greatly increased stopping distances.

CAUTIONS

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTIONS - 1

The vehicle should only be towed in a forward direction with all four wheels on the ground.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTIONS - 2

The vehicle should only be towed for a maximum of 0.8 km (0.5 miles), at a maximum speed of 48 km/h (30 mph). Towing for a greater distance or at a higher speed, may result in serious damage to the transmission.

Note: The recommended recovery method is to raise all four wheels.

Towing procedure

  1. The vehicle should be parked on firm level ground, with the parking brake on, and the gear selector in P (Park).
  2. Secure the towing attachment from the recovery vehicle to the front towing eye. See TOWING POINTS (page 253).
  3. Dock the Jaguar Smart Key and switch on the ignition. See GENERAL INFORMATION (page 132).

CAUTION

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTION - 1

Leaving the ignition switched on for extended periods will cause the battery to drain.

  1. Apply the foot brake and release the parking brake.
  2. With the foot brake still applied, activate the Emergency Park Release (EPR). See TRANSPORTING THE VEHICLE (page 254).
  3. The vehicle can now be towed a maximum of 0.8 km (0.5 miles) at a maximum speed of 48 kmh (30 mph).

RADIO RECEPTION

JAGUAR XF (2009) - RADIO RECEPTION - 1

natural_image Illustration of vehicles approaching a central point with signal beams, surrounded by buildings and roads (no text or symbols)

JAG1328

Some interference is to be expected from time to time during a journey. Occasionally, it may be necessary to return the audio unit, to offset the effects of moving from one transmitter area to another.

While Radio Data System (RDS) automatic retuning helps to reduce the effects of signal changes, some manual retuning may still be required (especially for local stations) in areas of weak reception.

FM Signals travel in a straight line, so large obstacles, such as tall buildings, can shield the vehicle from the signal, causing distortion or loss of reception (known as dead spots).

Distortion can also occur if FM signals received directly from the transmitter, mix with signals deflected by obstructions such as mountains, hills and tall buildings. This is known as multi-path distortion.

Note: Although distortion, interference and lack of signal clarity are sometimes attributed to a fault in the radio, this is rarely the case.

AUDIO UNIT OVERVIEW

The Jaguar infotainment system contains AM/FM radio, compact disc player and portable audio interface. Digital (DAB) radio, six-disc CD player and TV are optional.

RADIO DATA SYSTEM (RDS)

Options menu overview

Your radio is equipped with Radio Data System (RDS), which enables the audio unit to receive additional information with normal FM radio signals.

When tuned to certain stations on the FM waveband, the radio decodes signals transmitted to provide the functions listed below (dependent upon the service available from the broadcasters).

Note: Not all FM radio stations broadcast RDS information. If you are currently tuned to a non-RDS station, then RDS features will be unavailable.

Select Settings to display the Settings menu, then select Options to display the list of RDS options.

Traffic

RDS provides local travel information (where broadcast). See TRAFFIC INFORMATION CONTROL (page 276).

Regionalisation (REG)

As you drive into different radio reception areas, RDS automatically retunes the radio to the strongest signal. The Regional (REG) option stops the system from tuning to another local radio station with a stronger signal.

From the Options menu, you can switch the REG option On or Off. With REG on, your selected local radio station will remain tuned even if reception levels drop.

Alternative frequency (AF)

Some radio stations broadcast on different frequencies in different parts of the country. If the selected station signal weakens, the radio will automatically re-tune to a stronger alternative frequency (AF), if one is available (this feature is particularly useful on long journeys where the vehicle travels through different transmitter areas serving the same radio station).

From the Options menu, you can switch AF On or Off.

Enhanced other networks (EON)

The Enhanced Other Network (EON) option will tune to any radio station on the same station network as the one that you are listening to, if the signal becomes weak.

Either local (Local) or distant (Dist.) networks can be enabled on the Options menu, or the option can be switched Off.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Digital radio reception

JAGUAR XF (2009) - Digital radio reception - 1

natural_image Diagram showing concentric signal waves between three towers and a car, with no text or symbols present.

E94094
DAB radio is very different from normal AM/FM radio in both operation and sound quality. The DAB network is designed to provide near CD quality from radio broadcasts. In most locations DAB signals are available without hiss, crackle, pop or interference, and no fading or overlap.
DAB radio can significantly increase the number of radio channels/stations available. The DAB signals are transmitted to most major cities, towns and motorway networks.
Radio signals travel in a straight line so large obstacles, such as tall buildings, can shield the vehicle from the signal, causing temporary loss of reception (known as dead spots).
Digital radio is transmitted from regional transmitters. Some local channels are not available outside the range of their transmitters. If you want to listen to local channels as you move around the country, use the auto-tune function (AUTO) to build new channel lists. For more information on the auto-tune function. See CHANNEL AUTOMATIC TUNING (page 284).
Note: If any auxiliary electrical equipment is connected to the vehicle, then this may reduce the DAB radio sound quality.

Digital audio broadcasting

Ensembles

Unlike AM/FM radio, DAB transmits several channels/stations on a single frequency. A group of channels is known as an ensemble. Ensembles may consist of six or more channels (national or local). Some may have sub-channels offering several listening options.

When scrolling through the channels the sub-channels will appear in order, and can be selected in the same way as the channels. If reception is lost when the vehicle is in motion select AUTO to build a new list of ensembles.

The table below provides an example of the ensembles, channels and sub-channels available in one location.

COMPACT DISC COMPATABILITY

CAUTIONS

Irregular shaped CDs and CDs with a scratch protection film should not be used.
! CDs with labels (or stickers) attached, should not be used. Labels may become warped and prevent the CD from being ejected, causing damage to the CD player. Such damage is not covered by the warranty agreement.
The CD unit will play compact discs that conform to the international Red Book standard audio specification. Copy-protected CDs from some manufacturers do not conform to this standard and playback cannot be guaranteed.
Due to technical incompatibility, recordable (CD-R) discs and re-writable (CD-RW) discs may not function correctly.
Dual format, dual-sided discs (DVD Plus, CD-DVD format) are thicker than normal CDs and consequently playback cannot be guaranteed in Jaguar audio units, and jamming could occur. Warranty claims, where this type of disc is found to be inside an audio unit returned for repair, will not be accepted.

The following CD formats may cause the CD player to malfunction. It is recommended that the following types of CD are not used:

  • 8 cm (3.1 in.) discs with or without an adaptor.
    • CDs that are not circular.
    • CDs with a paper label.
  • CDs that are warped, dirty, scratched or have an abnormal edge.
  • Dual format, dual-sided discs (DVD Plus, CD-DVD format).
    • DVDs.

It is recommended that only high quality 12 cm (4.7 in.) circular discs, that show the Compact Disc Digital Audio logo, are used.

MP3 FILE PLAYBACK

On audio units fitted with a 6-disc CD player, you can play CDs containing MP3 files.

MP3 discs have the potential to hold more music than a conventional CD, because each track can be compressed to a higher degree during recording.

If you record your own music, each session must be properly closed but the whole disc does not have to be finalised.

Some pre-recorded and personally-recorded discs, can contain additional information on the disc, e.g. CD titles, track titles and the artist's name (this information is contained in ID3 Tags).

Additional touch-screen controls enable you to select folders and tracks and display various items of information about the recordings.

CAUTION

JAGUAR XF (2009) - CAUTION - 1

Copyright laws vary in different countries; please check the laws in your country if you want to record from copyright source material.

Note: A mixture of CDs and MP3 discs can be loaded into the 6-disc CD player together.

Note: The audio system will play MP3, WMA, WAV and AAC files. The highest compression rate supported, is 320k bits per second (kbps). If anything less than 128 kbps is used, Digital Signal Processing (DSP) functionality may be lost.

Note: The CD player is not guaranteed to play every disc available because of variation in the quality of discs.

Using MP3 discs

When an MP3 disc is first played, the first track in the root folder will play first. If you restart play after switching to another disc or audio source, then play will resume from the point you left it.

Note: The CD player may take a long time (one minute or more) to load an MP3 disc, owing to the number of tracks on it. To minimise the loading on the system, a rigid folder structure is recommended.

GENERAL INFORMATION

WARNING

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 1

Using the telephone near the car: Do not telephone inside a garage or near an open car bonnet. The air may contain fuel vapours and the telephone could produce sparks and start a fire.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 2

Unusual ambient conditions: Switch off the telephone in areas where high explosives are being used. High frequency remote controls could be interfered with and cause an explosion. Switch off your telephone in areas with a high explosion risk. This includes filling stations, fuel storage areas or chemical factories, as well as places where the air contains fuel vapour, chemicals or metal dust. The telephone might produce sparks and cause a fire or explosion.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 3

Medical equipment: The functioning of cardiac pacemakers or hearing aids may be impaired when the phone is in use. Check with a doctor or manufacturer whether any such devices you or your passengers are using, are sufficiently protected against high-frequency energy.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 4

Always stow your mobile phone securely. In an accident, loose items can cause injury.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 5

Using any hand-held appliance while driving, can be dangerous and is illegal in certain countries.

Note: The vehicle telephone system is designed to function with a wide variety of Bluetooth® telephones.

As these telephones have a wide range of audio and echo characteristics, it may take a few seconds for the vehicle telephone system to adapt and deliver optimum audio performance.

It may be necessary to reduce the in-vehicle volume slightly, to fully optimise audio performance and reduce echo.

In order to achieve the best possible audio performance, it may be necessary to select a lower speed on the heater blower and reduce the system volume slightly, when using certain mobile phones.

Telephone networks

The telephone network standard allows you to use your telephone in many countries.

However, telephone reception may be poor or unavailable in remote regions. This may be due to the inadequate power of the transmitter, which results in a weak signal or incomplete coverage.

What is Bluetooth®?

Jaguar Bluetooth® Connectivity was developed to be used with a selected range of mobile phones, from a number of different manufacturers. Some mobile phones feature different operating software versions - the correct version is needed for successful integration with the Jaguar Bluetooth® system.

Bluetooth is an international standard that allows electronic components to communicate with each other, using a short-range radio link. Bluetooth eliminates the need for wires or cables: Typically, devices can communicate at a range of up to 10 metres (33 feet).

The Bluetooth in-car telephone system allows certain mobile phones to be used hands-free in your vehicle. There is no need to connect the mobile phone to a cradle or cable.

Bluetooth® is a registered trademark of Bluetooth SIG, Inc.

Please refer to the Owner section of the Jaguar website at www.jaguar.com, for a list of compatible phones. Alternatively, please refer to your Dealer/Authorised Repairer.

Note: The Bluetooth technology phones listed on Jaguar.com, have been tested for compatibility with Jaguar vehicles.

Performance will vary, based on phone software version, coverage and your wireless carrier. Phones are warranted by their manufacturer, not Jaguar.

If your mobile phone battery charge becomes low it may switch off its Bluetooth link to the vehicle. This is normal operation for mobile phones, to help preserve the remaining battery charge. In this event, the touch-screen will display a phone connection message.

The mobile phone must be paired and docked with the vehicle system before use.

See TELEPHONE PAIRING AND DOCKING

(page 309). Once paired and docked, the phone can be operated via the steering wheel switches or the touch-screen. The mobile phone doesn't need to be physically connected to the vehicle, it can be left in a jacket pocket, for instance. Calls are routed through the vehicle's audio speakers, and a dedicated microphone is fitted within the overhead console and is directionally biased towards the driver.

You can use the system to answer or reject incoming calls, make outgoing calls or alter the call volume. The system does not support SMS text messaging.

Note: The vehicle ignition system must be on and the touch-screen system must be active, in order to use the phone.

Call volume

The volume of telephone calls can be adjusted for hands-free operation. To adjust the volume, operate the audio system's volume control during a phone call.

If the audio system is in use when the phone becomes active, the audio system source is suppressed for the duration of the call.

Charging your phone

It is possible to use the in-car 12V/USB socket to charge your mobile phone. Refer to the mobile phone operating instructions for charging information.

Safety

WARNING

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 1

Read the following information thoroughly before using your telephone.

Driving

Check local regulations covering the use of in-car telephones in the areas that you intend to use your telephone, and always obey them. Observe the following guidelines if you are using the phone when driving.

  • Give full attention to driving - safe driving is your prime responsibility.
  • Always use hands-free operation when driving.
  • When receiving a call, if driving conditions demand, pull off the road and park.

Electronic devices

Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from Radio Frequency (RF) signals. However, certain equipment may not be shielded against RF signals from your phone.

Pacemakers

The Health Industry Manufacturers' Association recommends that a minimum separation of 15 centimetres (six inches) is maintained between a wireless phone antenna and a pacemaker, to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the independent research by, and recommendations of, Wireless Technology Research.

TELEPHONE PAIRING AND DOCKING

Before use, your mobile phone must be paired and docked with the vehicle's Bluetooth system. This is done via your mobile phone or the touch-screen.

Pairing and docking using your mobile phone

Follow the steps below, to pair and dock your phone with the vehicle using your mobile phone.

Note: The process of pairing and docking your phone with the vehicle using the mobile phone, will vary depending on the type of mobile phone used.

E96911

  1. Ensure that the ignition is on and the touch-screen is active.
  2. Ensure that there is no mobile phone currently docked with the vehicle's Bluetooth system. If a mobile phone is docked with the system, you will not be able pair and dock another phone until the current phone has been undocked. To undock a phone, select Phone or Comms on the home screen, then Settings and then Undock.
  3. Using the mobile phone, search for Bluetooth devices. See your phone's operating instructions for further information.

  4. When the vehicle's Bluetooth system is discovered, your mobile phone will list Jaguar as a discovered Bluetooth device. Select this device from the list.

  5. You will now be requested to enter a Bluetooth PIN. When pairing and docking from your mobile phone, this number is always 1313.

Once your phone is paired to the vehicle's Bluetooth system, it can connect automatically. If the phone does not automatically connect, you will have to connect manually with the Jaguar Bluetooth System, via the mobile phone. Please consult the mobile phone's handbook for further information.

Note: Some mobile phones require you to authorise the connection each time you start the system. To change this, you must set Jaguar as ‘authorised’ in the mobile phone’s known device list. This will enable connections from the vehicle to the mobile phone to take place automatically without confirmation each time. Please consult the mobile phone’s handbook for further information.

Pairing and docking using the touch-screen

  1. Switch on your mobile phone's Bluetooth connection, using the phone's menu. Make sure that your mobile phone is in Bluetooth discoverable mode, sometimes referred to as find me mode (see your phone's operating instructions for more information).
  2. Switch the ignition system on, ensure that the touch-screen is active.

Phonebook capacity

Certain mobile phones store the phonebook in two different areas, the SIM card and the phone memory. Where possible, the vehicle will display both SIM card and phone memory entries up to a maximum of 750. With some mobile phones, the number of entries from one or both of these areas may be restricted. It is not always possible to transfer addresses stored in one or both of these areas.

The number of entries displayed is dependent upon the number of SIM and phone memory entries supported by the mobile phone.

Note: Certain mobile phones do not allow phonebook entries stored on the SIM card to be transferred via Bluetooth. However, it may be possible to transfer the SIM phonebook to the mobile phone's memory, before copying it to the vehicle phonebook. Refer to your mobile phone operating instructions for more information. It is advisable to remove duplicate and blank entries from the mobile phone, before the phonebook is downloaded.

TELEPHONE VOICE CONTROL

WARNING

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 1

Do not use voice control when placing emergency calls. Your voice and tone could be affected by stressful situations and, as a result, the process of establishing a connection could be delayed.

Voice control allows many of the telephone features to be activated by voice commands.

JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 2

The system is controlled by the switch on the left-hand side of the steering wheel.

Note: The voice control directory is separate from your phone SIM card address or phonebook. See VOICE CONTROL (page 69).

The voice control system understands predefined commands which need to be spoken word for word. A list of all telephone voice commands is below.

  • PHONE HELP
  • PHONE DIAL NUMBER
  • PHONE REDIAL
  • PHONE STORE NAME
  • PHONE DIAL NAME
    • PHONE ACCEPT CALLS
  • PHONE REJECT CALLS
    • PHONE DIAL LAST ANSWERED CALL
    • PHONE DIAL LAST MISSED CALL
    • PHONE DIAL VOICEMAIL
    • PHONE PLAY DIRECTORY
    • PHONE DELETE DIRECTORY
    • PHONE DIAL HANDSET NAME

Most of the above commands are self explanatory, those which are not, are explained more fully in the following section.

Operating the system
JAGUAR XF (2009) - WARNING - 3
E95902

Press and release the voice button on the steering wheel (arrowed) and after the tone, speak one of the system commands.

In response to your command, the system will repeat your instruction and Listening will appear in the message centre. The system will either carry out your command or ask for more information. If the system asks for more information, wait until the tone has sounded before replying.

To cancel a voice control session, press and hold the switch on the steering wheel (until a double tone sounds).

Telephone

Dialling a phone number

The system will guide you through the process. After each prompt where the system asks for a response, always wait for the tone before responding.

The phone number can be given as a series of single digits (from zero to nine). Either Zero or Oh is recognised, but zero is likely to give the best results.

For example: 01926543791 = zero, one, nine, two, six, five, four, three, seven, nine, one.

You can also speak the number in groups of three to six digits. If you adopt this approach, always wait for the system to respond with Continue before providing the next group of numbers.

It is also possible to give the number as a whole, with no pause between the digits.

To dial a phone number, follow one of the procedures listed below.

If, during the procedure, the system prompts you with a response of Continue, you can use the following commands.

  • DELETE - Will delete all digits entered and prompt for entry of a number;
  • CORRECTION - Deletes the digit entered last, repeats the digits given so far and prompts Continue;
  • CANCEL - Cancels this dialogue;
  • DIAL - Terminates the entry of digits and dials the entered number.

Telephone numbers up to 20 digits are acknowledged. If a longer number is given, the message Number too long will be heard.

The system will guide you through the process. After each prompt where the system asks for a response, always wait for the tone before responding.

To store a name, follow the procedure below.

If, during the procedure, the system prompts you with a response of Continue, you can use the following commands.

  • DELETE - Will delete all digits entered and prompt for entry of a number;
  • CORRECTION - Deletes the digit entered last, repeats the digits given so far and prompts Continue;
  • CANCEL - Cancels this dialogue;
  • STORE - Terminates the entry of digits and stores the entered phone number.

Storing nametags using the touch-screen

Nametags can also be added to the system by using the Add Phone nametag feature on the touch-screen, as described below.

  1. From the Home menu, select the Comms button.
  2. From the Comms menu, select the Add Phone Nametag button.
  3. A numerical touch-screen is displayed. Enter the phone number.
  4. When the number is entered, select the Add button in the top right-hand corner and, once the tone has sounded, speak the name that you wish the number to be stored under.

Note: The storage of the nametag itself is subject to the nametag not being too short (less than 0.4 seconds), too long (longer than 4 seconds), not sounding too much like another stored nametag and relies on the repetition of the nametag sounding the same as the first utterance of it. If any of these criteria are not met, the system will prompt you to give a new nametag.

Note: The Add button will be greyed out if the phone number is not valid.

Dialling a nametag

To dial a number stored under a nametag in the directory, press and release the voice button and say Phone dial name. The system will repeat the command and will prompt you for a stored nametag by saying Name please. After the tone, speak the nametag of the required number. The system will replay the stored nametag and ask for confirmation that it is correct. Answer with Yes or No, as appropriate.

Dialling voicemail

The number for your voicemail service needs to be stored in the system, before using this facility. To store the voicemail number:

• From the Home menu, select Comms.
• From the Comms menu, select Settings.
- The phone Settings menu has a Voice mail button, to allow your voicemail number to be entered.

To dial the voicemail number, press and release the Voice button on the steering wheel, wait for the tone to sound, then say Phone dial voicemail.

Play all stored nametags

To play all the nametags stored in the directory, press and release the Voice button on the steering wheel and after the tone, say Phone play directory. The list can be interrupted at any time, by pressing and releasing the button again. Once interrupted, you can then use the commands, REPLAY, DIAL, DELETE, EDIT or CANCEL.

  • VOICE NOT READY
    • NOT AVAILABLE PHONE IN USE
    • COMMAND NOT RECOGNISED
    • NO SPEECH DETECTED

GENERAL INFORMATION

Introduction

TV viewing is possible when the vehicle is stationary with the transmission in the P (Park) position. The TV picture can be viewed in preview mode or full-screen.

If the vehicle is moving when TV is selected or if the vehicle is driven off when the TV is operating, a warning message will display, the TV picture will cease and only audio reception is available.

Note: Japan market: The TV will operate normally up to speeds of 5 km/h (3 mph), after which the TV picture will cease and only audio reception is available.

TV sound is provided through the audio system speakers.

TV reception

Repositioning the vehicle may improve the picture whereas in difficult locations (distant transmitter, hills etc.), reception may not be possible at all. Sound quality may also be affected to a lesser degree by loss of signal, which can give rise to variable quality over short distances while on the move.

Note: Television systems require consistent and strong signals for good quality reception. These signals are affected by transmitter coverage and surrounding features (hills, high buildings, trees etc.) which will reduce the signal, thus reducing picture quality.

If the vehicle is moved whilst the TV picture is being displayed, the TV will be inhibited and returned to the TV Menu screen.

A warning indicator will appear across the screen for three seconds stating For your safety, the picture is off while the vehicle is in motion.

With the TV picture inhibited, TV sound and channel changing continues to be available.

Note: Your Dealer/Authorised Repairer will have details of how to order DVD updates.

The navigation DVD provided, contains a digitised street map. Larger cities and boroughs are completely covered. The regional and unclassified roads or access roads and the town centre for smaller towns and boroughs are included.

One way streets, pedestrian zones, turn bans and other traffic regulations are taken into account as far as possible. There may be discrepancies between the data on the navigation DVD and the actual local situation, due to temporary or permanent changes to road systems and their traffic regulations.

If the vehicle battery has been disconnected, or if the vehicle has been transported to a new location on another vehicle (e.g. by trailer or train), the navigation system may require several minutes to identify the new position.

Errors in vehicle position

Under certain driving conditions, it is possible that the vehicle position shown may be incorrect. Some examples are shown below:

  • Negotiating circular ramps in car parks.
    • Elevated roads in proximity to other roads.
    • Where two roads run parallel to each other.
  • Driving on steep roads.
  • When the vehicle is transported by ferry or train.
    • After the tyres have been replaced.
  • When using snow chains.
  • After the vehicle has been rotated on a turntable.
  • After vehicle battery removal or supply fuse failure.

Reception of GPS signals

GPS signals are highly directional and reception may occasionally be interrupted. Some examples of situations likely to cause problems are shown below:

  • Inside buildings
    • Forest roads between mountains
  • Between tall buildings
  • Roads under cliffs.

The vehicle's direction and speed sensors will minimise any adverse effect on the operation of the navigation system, if this should occur.

Normal operation will resume once the obstruction has been passed.

RDS-TMC OVERVIEW

Radio Data System-Traffic Message Channel (RDS-TMC) is a feature that announces traffic hold-ups on your route, as broadcast by radio stations that transmit TMC information.

Touch the RDS-TMC button on the Navigation Menu to access the TMC menu.

Touch the Change button - the system begins a search of all radio stations being received in your locality.

The tuner will scan the FM frequency once and this may take a few minutes. Searching will be displayed while scanning is in progress.

When a station is found which is offering TMC information, the RDS name is shown on the list and the search for more stations will continue.

Note: In the United Kingdom the station giving TMC information is Classic FM.

You can stop the search at any time and select any stations presented on the list, by touching the Change button or the button next to the desired station in the list.

RDS-TMC display

When a TMC signal is received the icon in the top left of the screen will appear gray. If a TMC signal is not being received, the icon will be shown with a bar through it.

The system will inform the driver of any roadworks, narrow road, contraflow, accidents, slippery road, diversion, information, parking information, congestion or other hazard.

The driver is informed of a traffic event as follows:

  • A TMC Event icon shown on the map at the location of the event.
  • Text can be displayed showing the details of each occurrence which can be selected either by touching the screen icon or from the traffic information list.
  • Voice guidance will describe the event on the route. This information will be repeated when the repeat switch is selected.
  • Dynamic route guidance, which calculates an alternative route when the system receives the traffic event warning affecting the route currently set in the navigation system.
  • Traffic event list shows all events sorted by road name/ distance on your selected route in a straight line or along your actual route.

The information regarding the hold-up is maintained and updated even if the vehicle crosses into another country.

RDS-TMC icons

Any traffic event (broadcast on TMC) in your area, will be displayed as a warning icon on the map and an alert may be displayed as a message giving the road number(s) and between which junctions the hold-up or event occurs. Voice guidance will also inform you of the hold-up when an event icon exists on the current route.

This data is stored in the system for up to of 30 minutes.

The colour of the TMC icon changes in order to show the type and priority of a TMC event. The background colour of the icon returns to normal when there is no longer an event or hold-up, or if any re-route instructions are calculated.

The TMC Event icons appear on the navigation map display to indicate the location and nature of a TMC event.

TMC Event icons will appear on the map, even if the event does not occur on your route.

USING TMC

Dynamic route guidance

Dynamic route guidance will calculate an alternative route to avoid a traffic event when the system receives an event warning.

The system calculates a new route for all sections. However, if any way points are set, the system calculates for the next way point.

If the event on route is serious (closed road) or if the new route is shorter than the current one and the current one was not recalculated within the last 5 minutes, then a message to confirm the new route will be displayed. This pop-up message will be displayed for 10 minutes and if the new route is not rejected, then the vehicle will follow the new route.

Voice guidance

While voice guidance is on, the system will give audio guidance for traffic events on route.

If the on route icon is touched, with audio guidance switched on, the audio message will be repeated. If the icon is grey, the audio guidance function has been switched off and touching the icon will not repeat any message.

After the vehicle passes the event, you will be notified of the next nearest event on route.

Audio messages are not given if you are in that event.

While the vehicle is on the guidance route, the system will generate a traffic event list for that route when you touch the Traffic on Route screen button.

If a route is calculated but the vehicle is not on the highlighted route, a pop-up is displayed with an error message.

On route event icon

The on route event icon will show a traffic event as a line of stationary vehicles with the distance to the start point of the event. Touch the icon to repeat audio guidance (when audio guidance is switched on).

The icon will be displayed on the map with the following conditions:

  • The map scale is between 50 metres and 4 km (1/32 mile and 2 miles).
  • RDS-TMC setting is on and there are some events on the route.

The on route event icon will show the nearest event on the route and the distance to the event.

All traffic events

When the All Traffic Events button on the RDS-TMC setting screen is touched, all traffic events are listed by road name. If an event occurs on more than one road of your route, the system will list it with the first road name.

Each event is seen as text information from the menu.

While the list is being displayed the information is not updated.

When you select a road the system shows traffic events, if there are any, with the basic information.

Note: The maximum text length displayed is 24 characters.

The basic information screen shows:

  • Road number.
  • Brief information of the event.
  • Direction and distance to the start point of the event (in a straight line).

Up to 20 events can be shown in distance order from the current vehicle position. If the event list is longer than three the remaining can be seen by scrolling the screen.

When the Map button is touched, the map screen will display the place of the event start point. The scale is always 500 metres (1/4 mile). If the event has finished, the map screen will still be displayed when the Map button is touched but no event icon will be shown on the map.

When the Detail button is touched, the system shows the detail of that event.

SURVEILLANCE SETTING

If you frequently travel through an area that is subject to slow or stationary traffic, it is possible to set a surveillance area which can be viewed at any time.

Up to three areas can be set for this surveillance.

RDS-TMC radio data for the selected surveillance area must be available and TMC must be enabled in order to show TMC events in this area
