How to jump-start a Jaguar XF with jumper cables

Model: Jaguar Xf MK 1 - Years 2008-2015
Part: Checks and maintenance

If the battery of the Jaguar XF is completely flat and you cannot open the boot to access the battery, you can use the emergency jump-start points located inside the cabin. Open the fuse panel on the passenger side. Below, you will find a positive terminal (black cable) and a grounding point. Connect the positive cable to the black terminal (which acts as positive) and the negative cable to a metal grounding point on the bodywork. Connect the other end to a charged battery or a booster. Start the vehicle. This procedure is valid for most Jaguar XF models.
