Jaguar X-Type Security:-
Door Locks & Smart Locking
Door Locks
The Jaguar X Type doors can be locked and unlocked either remotely, using
the key fob, or by using the integrated key. The vehicle is fitted with
a feature called SMART LOCKING, this helps prevent inadvertantly
locking the key in the vehicle.
Smart Locking
If one or both of the front doors are open and an attempt is made to lock
the doors using a door interior locking lever, all doors will become
unlocked, when the doors are shut none of them will be locked.
If the bonnet (hood), boot (luggage compartment) or a door is open, the
vehicle can only be locked from the outside by using a key in the driver’s
door lock. It will not be possible to lock the vehicle remotely, any
attempt to do so will cause the indicators will flash five times, the horn
will also chirp twice as a warning that the vehicle is not secure, and leave
the locks dis-engaged.
To lock the vehicle and set the alarm
Locking the vehicle and setting the alarm can be achived by pressing
the lock button on the key fob or putting the key into the driver’s
door lock, then turning it toward the rear of the vehicle.
In both instances you will hear the locks operate and the indicators will
flash once. The security LED on the centre console will start flashing
, after 20 seconds, the alarm will activated.
Note:
On UK and some European vehicles, this process will not arm the alarm system’s intrusion sensors. The intrusion sensors are only armed when the vehicle is double-locked.
