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. Doing so can result in serious
transmission and/or engine damage.
Do not allow the vehicle to remain stationary
with a drive gear selected and the engine
running. Always select P or N if the engine is to
idle for a prolonged period. The vehicle may
move unexpectedly with any other gear
position selected.
ROTARY GEAR SELECTOR
Park (P) should be engaged and the parking
brake applied when the vehicle is stationary.
The vehicle can move unexpectedly with any
other gear position selected, which may
result in death or serious injury.
Before exiting the vehicle, always ensure that
the gear selector is in the Park (P) position,
the engine is turned off, the parking brake is
applied and the Smart Key is removed from
the vehicle.
The JaguarDrive selector elevates out of the
center console when the engine is started, in
readiness for gear selection
P should be selected before switching off the
engine. However, it is possible to switch the
engine off with R, D or S selected - the selector
will automatically select P, while retracting into
the center 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. Vehicle recovery
should only be undertaken by qualified
personnel.
IF THE SELECTOR FAILS TO ELEVATE
If the JaguarDrive selector is obstructed,
remove the obstruction 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/Authorized Repairer at the earliest
opportunity.
MANUAL GEAR SELECTION
Supercharged vehicles: Manual gear selection
(using the gear shift paddles) is available in
both Drive (D) (temporary manual mode) and
Sport mode (S).
Non Supercharged vehicles: Manual gear
selection is only available in Sport mode (S).
Operation: When in manual mode, pull the
left-hand paddle to shift down a gear or the
right-hand paddle to shift up a gear.
There are 2 methods of exiting manual mode:
1. Pull and hold the right-hand paddle for
approximately 1 second to return directly
to automatic operation.
2. Rotate the gear selector from S to the D
position.
