Here is what the handbook says :-
Docking the Jaguar Smart Key During normal operation, it is not necessary to dock the Jaguar Smart Key. However, if the unlock button on the Smart Key fails to operate and the vehicle has been unlocked using the emergency key blade, it will be necessary to dock the Jaguar Smart Key, to deactivate and disarm the alarm system.
1. Lift the lid of the centre console stowage compartment.
2. Slide open the cover of the starter control unit.
3. Insert the Jaguar Smart Key into the recess with the emergency key release button facing forward.
Note: This is not a Jaguar Smart Key internal battery recharging procedure. The battery is non-rechargeable.
Many thanks again
Tony

Many thanks kj07xk
"Pretty sure that’s the transmission release on a 5.0 car (mine’s a 4.2, so I don’t have it). If your battery is dead, and you need to move the car, it can release the transmission, like shifting from P to N."
Yes, you're quite right. Following your reply I've found the relevent section in the handbook:-
Vehicle recovery
EMERGENCY PARK RELEASE (EPR)
When recovering your vehicle, it is essential that the EPR is operated. EPR prevents the transmission from automatically selecting P, ensuring that the transmission remains in neutral (N). EPR is operated by a lever located beneath a trim panel in the cubby box. Before activating EPR, select P, apply the parking brake and turn the ignition off. 1 2 3 JAG1426 1. Open the cubby box lid. 2. Remove the twin cup holder. 3. Using an appropriate screwdriver, unscrew and remove the screw securing the trim panel, where shown. Store the screw in a safe place. 4 5 JAG1427 4. Lift the right-hand edge of the trim panel to open. 5. Using a flat-bladed screwdriver, turn the locking device 90° counter-clockwise. 6 7 JAG1428 6. Apply the foot brake. 7. Use the strap to pull the EPR lever upwards, until it latches in the vertical position. 233Vehicle recovery When the EPR is activated, the JaguarDrive selector will remain in P, but the selector indicator and the gear display in the message centre will both flash N (if ignition is on), to indicate that EPR is active.

Turn the locking device 90° clockwise to secure. 4 5 6 JAG1430 4. Lower the trim panel and secure with the screw. 5. Replace the twin cup holder. 6. Close the cubby box.
Many thanks again,
