Jaguar Smart Key allows you to lock or unlock your car at a distance using a smart keys fob. It also comes with a variety of additional features that make daily driving easier and more convenient.

Jaguar offers two kinds of Smart Key Systems: standard and Display Key. Standard Smart Keys perform the same functions as traditional keys, such as locking and unlocking, as well as remote start. However, a Display Key comes with a small LCD touchscreen that displays various vehicle information that includes status updates for the engine, navigation and more. It is also a simple and quick way to control basic functions in your car, such as turning on the headlights, or activating panic alarm.

How do I program a Jaguar Smart Key?

If your Jaguar X Type key fob is losing charge, it could be time to replace the battery. This issue is often encountered by drivers who frequently use key fobs or play outdoor sports. This isn't as difficult as you think. It's also a great thing to do if you're planning to add an additional key fob to your car.

Jaguar X Type key fobs come with a small battery that is easily accessible and you can replace with the standard CR2032 coin cells. They are available at most pharmacies and home improvement stores. Slide the chrome cover of the key fob off to reveal the key made of metal. Use the emergency key to remove the body from the fob. Insert a new CR2032. Do not touch the bottom or top of the battery since this can reduce battery life or corrode contacts.

The fob requires programming after the key has been replaced. This can be done with the onboard diagnostics (OBD) port on your vehicle. Remember that all keys must be reprogrammed together and that keys previously programmed won't work with your vehicle. To program a new key fob connect the reprogrammed one to the OBD port and follow the prompts on screen.
