STEERING
Variable ratio power-assisted steering is standard on every version of XF, for reduced parking effort at low speeds and greater precision and feedback at higher speeds - and especially for positive weight to the on-centre feel, which is part of the new dynamic flavour. Steering effort at manoeuvring speeds is also reduced on diesel models.
The new XF adopts an electronic steering column lock - for compatibility with passive entry mode and the Jaguar Smart Key SystemTM. There is no longer a key barrel on the column, however the electronic lock satisfies Thatcham security legislation for the UK market.
The XF’s steering wheel includes cruise-control, JaguarVoiceTM (where fitted) and audio controls - including volume, and radio channel pre-sets. The source button toggles through AM/FM/CD, plus any external device functions. The select buttons allow features such as CD track change, radio channel pre-set selection or iPod® or MP3 track change if such a device is in use.
