Jaguar Smart Key is a system that lets you lock and unlock your vehicle by using a smart key fob. It also comes with a number of added features that make your daily commutes simpler and more convenient.
Jaguar offers two different types of Smart Key systems: standard and Display Key. Standard Smart Keys perform the same functions as traditional keys, like 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 offers a fast and easy way to control the essential functions of your car including turning on the headlamps or activating the panic alarm.
To use your Jaguar Smart Key, simply drive up to your car with the fob in your purse or pocket and it will recognize it. When it is in range, grasping any door handle will unlock your XE, and also disable the security system.

How do I program a Jaguar Smart Key?
It's possible to replace your Jaguar X Type battery if you notice that your key fob is losing charge. This issue occurs frequently for drivers who frequently use key fobs or play outdoor sports. This isn't as difficult as you think. This is a great idea if you're planning to add a second key fob to your vehicle.
Jaguar X Type key fobs include a small battery that is easily accessible and you can replace with the standard CR2032 coin. You can find these in most pharmacies and home improvement stores. Slide the chrome cover of the fob to reveal the key made of metal. Use the emergency key to disconnect the body from the fob. Insert a new CR2032. Do not touch the bottom or top of the battery because this could reduce battery life or corrode contacts.
Once the key is replaced, the fob will need to be programmed. This can be done with the onboard diagnostics (OBD) port of your vehicle. It is essential to note that all key fobs should be reprogrammed at the exact as the previously programmed keys won't work with your car. To program a new key fob connect the reprogrammed one to the OBD port and follow the on-screen prompts.
How do I replace the battery in my Jaguar Smart Key
If you've recently noticed that the key fob's range has decreased it's a clear indication that the battery should be replaced. The message center might even show SMART KEY BATTERY LOW to inform you that a replacement is needed.
The Jaguar key fob can be replaced by sliding the chrome cover, opening the emergency key blade, and then prying the body open. Slide the metal key and use it as a lever to pop the key case. Take the battery that was CR2032 in place and replace it with a new one with the positive side facing upwards. Place the case in place and replace the chrome cover.
You can test your key fob after installing the new battery to ensure that it is working properly. If the low-battery indication appears on the new battery it could be due to moisture or oil on your fingertips. Make sure you use a cloth that is lint-free to avoid the problem.
