2-2 Security and locks

Vehicle security

When leaving the vehicle unoccupied,

remember the following:
• Apply the handbrake and with

automatic transmission, move the

gear selector to Park ‘P’.

• Do not leave children or pets in the

vehicle unattended.

• Do not leave luggage or valuables on

view. Always take your valuables with

you or lock them in the luggage

compartment.

• Remove the ignition key and spare

keys, even when the vehicle is in your

garage.

• Close all windows and lock all doors

securely.

• Park the vehicle where it can be seen.

At night, park in a well-lit area.

• When leaving the vehicle unattended,

for maximum security ensure that the

doors are double-locked.

Ensure that all keys and key transmitters

are removed from the vehicle before

locking the doors, and that all doors, the

luggage compartment and the bonnet are

closed.

It is important to keep your keys in safe

places at all times. Leaving them in

conspicuous places is an invitation for a

thief to steal them and, consequently,

your vehicle or belongings. Keep them as

secure as you would your wallet or purse,

both at home and away.

Security light
This vehicle is equipped with an

immobilisation system.
An electronic device is fitted in the head

of each key which is programmed to the

vehicle electronics. When the key is

placed in the ignition switch the vehicle

electronics recognise the correct key and

allow engine start. The engine cannot be

started with a key not programmed to the

vehicle electronic systems.
If an ignition key is placed in the ignition

switch and turned to position ‘II’ and the

alarm security light on the centre console

remains flashing after three seconds, it is

possible that the engine will not start. In

any event, please contact a Jaguar Dealer

to investigate the cause of the light

flashing.

Keys

The key operates all the locks on your

vehicle.
Vehicles are supplied with either two key

transmitters or one key transmitter and

one key without a transmitter, depending

on the vehicle model.
