Health and safety

!

WARNING:

1. Many liquids and other

substances used in vehicles are
poisonous and should never be
consumed and must be kept away
from open wounds. These
substances include anti-freeze,
brake fluid, fuel, windscreen
washer additives, lubricants and
various adhesives.

2. The presence of any unusual

fumes (for example, petrol or
exhaust fumes) in the passenger
compartment and/or luggage
compartment should be corrected
immediately by a Jaguar Dealer. If
you must drive under these
conditions do so only with all
windows fully open.

3. By operating other electronic

equipment (for example; a mobile
phone without an exterior
antenna) electro-magnetic fields
can cause malfunctions of the
vehicle electronics. Therefore, you
should observe the instructions of
the equipment manufacturers.

4. Any modifications to the fuel

system not specifically designed
for this Jaguar are prohibited. Such
modifications in some
circumstances could result in a
fire. All service actions must be
entrusted to a Jaguar Dealer.

5. Alterations to the electrical

system, including the fitting of
accessories not designed for this
Jaguar, will cause damage to the
electrical circuits and systems. In
some circumstances this could
result in a malfunction or fire. All
accessory work should be
entrusted to a Jaguar Dealer.

6. No attempt should be made to

repair a fuse that has blown.
Always install a fuse of the correct
amperage. Failure to comply with
the above may cause a fire hazard
or create serious damage
elsewhere in the electrical circuit.

7. Avoid contact with battery acid

which is poisonous and corrosive.
Acid will cause burns to the skin
as well as to the eyes. In the event
of skin or eye contamination,
wash the affected area with water
thoroughly. Seek immediate
medical attention when eye
contact has occurred.

8. Do not disconnect any pipes in the

air conditioning refrigeration
system. A refrigerant is used
which can cause blindness if
allowed to contact the eyes.
If refrigerant should contact the
eyes or skin, wash the eyes or
affected area with cold water for
several minutes. Do not rub. As
soon as possible thereafter, obtain
treatment from a doctor or eye
specialist.
