Climate Control
Information
A general introduction to the climate
control system is given in the Owner’s
Handbook. The operating information
given here refers to the touch-screen and
other controls.
Both the XJ and S-TYPE have driver and
passenger (dual zone) red and blue
temperature control arrow buttons.
X-TYPE has only one set of red and blue
arrow buttons for interior temperature
control.
Refer to The XJ Owner’s Handbook for
information on the rear climate control
panel fitted with the optional 4-zone
system.
Controls and displays
The climate control system has its own
menu on the touch-screen. A number of
other buttons are also used for climate
control and are located around the
perimeter of the touch-screen. When a
perimeter button is pressed, selection of
the function is confirmed by a beep and,
on most buttons, illumination of a Light
Emitting Diode (LED).
An LCD screen below the touch-screen
shows the interior temperatures set by the
driver and passenger and the external
(EXT) ambient temperature.
Note: Using other systems and
touch-screen displays, such as audio or
navigation, does not affect the climate
control settings.
Panel illumination
With the exterior lighting switched on, the
graphics on the panel controls are
illuminated by low level backlighting.
The illumination level is adjusted by the
common instrument panel dimmer
control.
