Jaguar Smart Key allows you to lock or unlock your car remotely with a smart key fob. It also comes with a number of added features that will make your daily drives more enjoyable and easier.
Jaguar offers two types of Smart Key systems: standard and Display Key. Standard Smart Keys offer the same functions as a traditional key, such as locking, unlocking and remote start. However the Display Key has a tiny LCD touchscreen that displays a variety of vehicle information such as status updates for the engine, navigation, and more. It also provides a quick and easy way to control the basic functions of your vehicle, such as turning on the headlamps or activating the panic alarm.
To use your Jaguar Smart Key, simply approach your vehicle with the fob in your purse or pocket and it will detect it. When it is within reach, grabbing any door handle will unlock your XE, and also disable the security system. Once inside you can press the start button, and then place your foot on the brake to start the engine.

How do I program my Jaguar Smart Key?
If your Jaguar X Type key fob is starting to lose its charge, it could be time to replace the battery. This is a problem that is common for those who regularly use key fobs or who engage in outdoor sports. This isn't as difficult as you think. It's also an excellent idea to do this if you're planning on adding a second fob to your vehicle.
Jaguar X Type keyfobs come with a battery that is easily accessible. You can replace it with a standard CR2032 cell. These are available at all home improvement stores and pharmacies. To begin, pull the chrome cover off of the key fob to reveal the steel key. Make use of the emergency key blade to remove the body of the fob and then insert a fresh CR2032. Do not touch the bottom or top of the battery, as this could reduce battery life or corrode contacts.
Once the key is replaced the fob needs to be programmed. You can do this by using the OBD port on your vehicle. Be aware that all keys must be reprogrammed in order to work and that previously programmed keys won't work with your vehicle. To program a new key fob connect the new key to the OBD port and follow the on-screen prompts.
