Default Running the radio with engine off

Not unique to E-Pace, or even Jaguar, but how do you take it to the Drive In? A few mins after engine-off, everything shuts down. I asked the dealer about this and he said the battery would go flat otherwise. I say, if the computer and radio are going to flatten a battery in 2 hours, somebody didn't design it right...

Welcome to the forums Richard,

The media system is designed to go OFF with the ignition. However to cater for situations where an owner deliberately wants to overide this, the media can be switched ON again:





Over to you to tell us if there is a further timeout on this method.

On my jaguar if I press the start button without having my foot on the brake, it turns the media center on without starting the car.
