Default Strange beep when starting up.

Hi!

My x-type makes this strange beep-sound when cold starting. It seems to be coming from speakers or somewhere up front, inside the dashboard. Its not the parking aid speaker, because its much-much shorter. It gives a constant beep for about a second. No warning lights, messages or anything comes up. Today it happened while i was driving. Car was warmed up nicely, everything was fine, car ran like a dream... except this short ghost-beep. I dont know if i should be worried or not.
Anyone got any idea what my Jaguar is trying to tell me? Its been raining a lot lately - i dont know if this has anything to do with it...

You need a new battery in the on board carbon monoxide detector. It is located in a welded piece of the body tubing, so you can never find it.....Hope this helps.....The as$hole.....Mike

Also this post which is about the only one I've seen which doesn't blame the parking sensors

If you press and hold the recirculate button until it beeps, it will stay on recirculate.

It's not the recirculate button - i tried the press and hold method. Recirculate button beep is pretty quiet and doesn't sound like my ghost-beep. At this point, i'm pretty sure it comes from my radio or climate control. Just haven't figured out yet why it beeps.
