Seat belts
Passenger air bag deactivation
The front passenger seat occupancy sensor
determines the state of seat occupancy and
sets the air bag status to suit:
Seat unoccupied - air bag deactivated and
indicator off.
Seat occupied - air bag activated and
indicator off.
Low weight occupant or object - air bag
deactivated and indicator on.
Ensure passengers do not fully extend the
restraints and inadvertently engage the ALR
feature during normal use.
A warning indicator on the instrument
pack will illuminate if a front seat belt is
unbuckled.
Automatic Locking Reels (ALR)
All passenger seat belts have ALR fitted for use
with child seats or for securing large items.
Extend the belt to maximum length to enable
the locking mechanism.
Allow the seat belt to retract onto the child
seat/item. As the belt retracts a clicking
sound will be heard and the belt will be
prevented from extending further. Ensure
there is no slack by pressing the seat/item
firmly into the vehicle seat.
To disengage: unbuckle the belt and allow
the belt to fully retract.
Recommended child seat
Jaguar Cars recommends LATCH child restraints
with a top tether.
A LATCH child seat can be fitted only in the outer
rear seating positions.

Glovebox
To open the glovebox, move a finger close to or
briefly touch the icon on the facia.
Valet mode
The glovebox and trunk can be locked/unlocked
via the touch screen.
Select Home/Vehicle/Veh. settings.
From the Security screen select Valet mode.
Enter a four digit code and touch OK.
Dependent on whether you are locking or
unlocking, Valet on or Valet off will be
displayed.
Child seats
It is important to remember that your child’s
weight, rather than age, determines the type of
seat that is required.
Refer to Child Safety in the Owner’s Handbook
to determine the correct seat for your child.
