Steering Column

R

Entry - When the key is next inserted into
the ignition switch and the door is closed,
the steering column and seat will return to
their previous positions. If, however, the
memorised driver position has been
changed (using the door MEMORY
switch or another key transmitter), the
steering wheel and seat will move to the
new position.

Notes on entry or exit mode operation
• If the adjustment switch is moved

away from AUTO whilst the steering
column is tilted away, the steering
column will move back to its
memorised position when the key is
next inserted into the ignition and
entry or exit mode is then cancelled.

• If the adjustment switch is moved

during entry or exit operation, steering
column movement will stop.

Door Windows

WINDOW OPERATION

The front and rear door windows are
electrically operated.

Switches on the driver’s door control all
door windows.

Passengers are provided with a switch to
control their door window only.

These switches will only operate the
windows when the ignition switch is in
position I or II or for up to ten minutes
when the ignition switch is moved to
position 0 (key in or out), so long as the
driver’s and front passenger’s doors
remain closed.

!

WARNING:

When raising windows make sure

all occupants are clear.

When leaving the vehicle take the

ignition keys to prevent misuse of
the window switches by remaining
occupants, especially children.

Raise or lower

To lower a window, press and hold the
rear of the switch until the desired
position is reached, then release.

To raise a window, press and hold the
front of the switch until the desired
position is reached, then release.

If the switches are held for longer than six
seconds, for example, when attempting
to overcome frozen or jammed windows,
the window drive will be switched off for a
few seconds to protect the window drive
motors.

One-touch operation

Each window has a one-touch facility
enabling the occupant to fully open or
close the window in one quick movement.

Press the switch briefly to close or open
the window in one movement. Window
travel can be stopped at any time by
pressing the switch again.

Immobilising the rear windows

The rear windows can be immobilised
from the driver’s door controls to prevent
passengers from operating their
windows.

To immobilise the rear windows, press
button (1) down to the latched position i.e.
flush with the surround.

To enable rear window operation, press
button (1) again so that it is in the raised
position with the white band showing.

Wind resonance with lowered windows

Due to the sleek exterior of the vehicle, it
is possible for a resonance, booming
sound to occur when one or both rear
windows are open; this is eliminated by
slightly opening an adjacent front
window.

WINDOW ANTI-TRAP
PROTECTION

Each electrically operated window has an
anti-trap protection feature. If the upward
movement of the window detects an
obstacle, the anti-trap system will
immediately stop the window closing,
then move it downwards for a short
distance.

!

WARNING:

If the battery is disconnected or
discharged the window anti-trap
feature is lost. When the battery is
reconnected or recharged the window
anti-trap system must be reset.

To reset the electrically operated
windows anti-trap system
:
• Fully close the window, hold the

switch in the close position for two
seconds and then release the switch.
Wait for two seconds. Do not open the
window.

• Again, select the same window to

close, holding the switch for a further
two seconds.

• Check to confirm the operation by

opening the window and then use
one-touch operation to close the
window.

• Repeat for the remaining electrically

operated windows.

To override the anti-trap protection

The anti-trap system will also stop the
window closing if a blockage or
resistance occurs e.g. in the window
guide channels. Typically, this might be
due to icing in winter, but could also be
caused by damage or misalignment of the
guide channels or seals.

To override the anti-trap action:
• After the initial attempt to close the

window, operate the close switch a
second time.

• When the window has reversed from

the blockage, operate the switch
(within ten seconds) until the window
stops again (it will not reverse on the
third attempt).

• Immediately operate the close switch

again. The window will now move up
a short distance with increased force
to override the blockage.

• Repeat the override action until the

window has closed. Each time the
window stops, the switch must be
operated immediately to initiate
further override action.

If this procedure fails to remove the
blockage, the anti-trap feature will be lost
and must be reset (see first column) after
the blockage has been cleared.

Thermal overload

If the windows are repeatedly opened and
closed (e.g. by a child), a protection
system will deactivate window operation
for a short period to avoid overheating of
the window motors.

Mirrors

Mirrors

DOOR MIRRORS

Both door mirrors are adjusted from the
driver’s door switchpack.

The four-way adjustment button (1)
moves the mirrors to the required
position. The selector switch (2) selects
the mirror to be moved, left for the
left-hand side mirror and right for the
right-hand side mirror. When the selector
switch is in the center position,
adjustment to either mirror is inhibited.

Note: The passenger door mirror is
convex, providing a wider field of vision.
As a result, objects viewed in the mirror
are closer than they appear.

Each mirror housing is designed to pivot
against the vehicle upon impact. To return
the mirror to its normal position, manually
reposition the housing until it locks into
place.

Mirror heating

The door mirrors have heating elements
which work when the rear screen heater is
switched ON. The mirror heater will clear
all ice from the mirror surface.

Caution: Do not use a scraper to
remove ice from the mirrors as this will
damage the surface.

Electrochromatic door mirrors

Electrochromatic door mirrors are only
fitted together with an electrochromatic
rear view interior mirror. The switches on
the interior mirror control the
electrochromatic function for both door
and interior mirrors (see following
section).

INTERIOR REAR VIEW MIRROR

Interior rear view mirror –
electrochromatic

The interior rear view mirror is of the
electrochromatic type, and is operated
automatically when the ignition switch is
turned on.

The mirror darkens automatically to
prevent glare from a following vehicle’s
headlamps, and clears when light levels
return to normal or when reverse gear is
selected.

Where electrochromatic door mirrors are
fitted, they are operated automatically in
conjunction with the interior mirror, when
the ignition switch is turned on.

Note:

Should a mirror assembly become
detached from the windshield, it must
be refitted by a Jaguar Dealer.
