What is the Jaguar Smart Key?

Jaguar Smart Key allows you to lock or unlock your vehicle remotely with a smart key fob. It also has many additional features that can help make your daily journeys more efficient and convenient.

Jaguar offers two types of Smart Key Systems: standard and Display Key. Standard Smart Keys perform the same functions like traditional keys, which include locking or unlocking them, as well as remote start. However the Display Key includes a tiny LCD touchscreen with a color display that shows various vehicle information, including status updates for the engine, navigation and more. It's also an easy and quick method to control basic functions in your car, like turning on the headlights, or activating the panic alarm.

The Jaguar Smart Key will detect the fob inside pockets or bags when you get close to your vehicle. Once it is within range, grabbing any door handle will automatically unlock your XE and disarm the security system. Once inside, hit the start button to start your engine and put your foot on the brakes to start driving around Rumson and Colts Neck.

It also allows you to activate the lights on your headlights and taillights will illuminate in a timed manner that you can select from a number of options.

The Smart Key can also be used to control the climate control. Push the unlock button to open the windows and sunroof. When you close them the air conditioner will close as well. If you press the button for locking, you can turn on the seat vents to keep your passengers cool.

You can even utilize your Jaguar Smart Key to open your trunk. Simply push the key fob toward the door handle, and the Jaguar XE will sense it and let you open the trunk lid without having to reach into your purse or pockets.

Jaguar's security system complies with industry standards and is recognized as "Superior" by Thatcham (the UK insurance research center). The Jaguar Smart Key is a part of this system and it complies with the same security standards as other components like the keyless ignition switch.
