The Jaguar Activity Key Eliminates the Need to Carry Your Primary Key
The Jaguar Activity Key is a lightweight wristband that eliminates need for you to carry your main key fob around. It's great for activities like hiking, boating, and running the errands of Huntington Harbor.
To utilize it, switch off your vehicle and keep your normal key fob in the cabin. Press and hold the tailgate button for 30 seconds to activate the Activity Key antennae.
Locking and unlocking your vehicle
The last thing you need to do when on the move is take a few minutes to search in your purse or pockets for your Jaguar keyfob. The new Jaguar XE is equipped with technology that can eliminate the hassle of searching for your Jaguar key fob in Rumson and Colts Neck. It's called the Activity Key and is a wristband that is lightweight and can open and lock your car. It does this by recognizing the standard Jaguar smart key fob that's inside the vehicle. The tailgate release is pressed to activate the antenna of the Activity Key. Then place it on the Jaguar "J" which is located on the rear of the tailgate of your vehicle. After a short time, the hazard light will blink to show that your vehicle is locked and secure.
The Activity Key is around the size of a Fitbit-brand sports-activity monitor and is sweat- and waterproof. It even comes with a convenient wristband extension that can accommodate various sizes. Consumer Guide tried it out and found it to work well.
Contact Jaguar Monmouth if you would like to add Keyless Entry to the Jaguar XE. We can help you upgrade your vehicle by offering a $1200 Convenience Pack, which includes a tailgate with a power that can be shut and opens automatically, as well as an electric-folding heated mirror for the door that has approach lights for improved visibility.
Unlocking your car even if you're not in it
The Jaguar Activity Key allows you to take part in outdoor activities like mountain biking, ski and kayaking in Glen Cove without having to carry around the traditional keyfob. The Activity Key wristband lets you lock and unlock your vehicle while you're engaged in these outdoor activities.
To use the Jaguar Activity Key without being inside your vehicle, ensure that the doors are shut and the tailgate has been opened. Then press the tailgate release button to activate the Jaguar Activity Key antennae, and then, hold your wristband against the letter "J" in the Jaguar logo. After this is done the hazard light will flash and your car will become unlocked.
This method is easier on newer cars that have the power door lock buttons located on the armrest. In older cars you'll need to put wire or a rod clothes hanger into the space between the window frames on the front door and the body. This means that you can move or press the door lock flipper of your vehicle or button to open it. After you have opened the door of your car you can utilize the wristband for the other buttons.
Storing Full Review inside your vehicle
Keep your key fob in your car so that you don't have to look for it. Whether you have it in a pocket or on your belt, or at your fingertips in the console, you can easily gain access to your vehicle without the need to use a complicated locking system. Make sure that your Jaguar XE has sensed the key fob prior to attempting to open the door or lock it, and you'll be good to go!
You can also utilize your key fob to activate your panic button. This feature is intended to scare off criminals from your vehicle if you are in a quiet location, like parking garages, so that it allows you time to act. Just press the button and the alarm will sound that should be enough to deter criminals from engaging in any type of crime.
If you notice that the range of your Wichita key fob is reducing it's time to replace it. Your Jaguar vehicle's Message Center might also display the message SMART KEY BATTERY LOSS, so that you can take steps to resolve the issue. To replace the battery, slide or take off the fob cover and utilize the emergency key blade to cut the body. Insert a new CR2032 with the positive side facing up, then replace the cover. Make sure it clicks firmly into place.
