Unhappy 2004 XKR convertible won't start-handbook needed

hi there,

I read a few other posts about jump starting a xkr and honestly I got confused--is my battery in the trunk? When I jump start it, the other running car should be turned off but I can try to turn over my XKR after about 5 minutes of jump starter cable connection? Also, does anyone have an updated link to download the 2004 handbook that comes with the car? Mine got stolen which is why I was trying to figure out the proper way to jump start it.

thanks in advance for any suggestions or link forwards.

Hello, Kiril,
I'm sorry your Jaguar won't start for you. Someone will be along soon to direct you to the correct section where members who also drive XkRs can help you get it started.

Welcome to the forums from ElinorB.

thanks so much for the welcome. I just bought my XKR not too many months ago and am thrilled to finally own the car of my dreams.

Welcome to the forum kiril,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

I can see you've already found your way to the XK8/XKR forum so there's no need for a link to it from me.
The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues.

Please remember to add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User CP button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.

You can also visit the US Northeast Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/us-northeast-35/
to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
