ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM
Passive anti-theft system
Your ignition key has a unique
imbedded transponder which
engages engine electronics and
allows the vehicle to be started.
Without the use of your special
ignition key, the vehicle will not
start.
During each vehicle start, the
coded key is read by the anti-theft
system. If the key's ID code
matches the code in the anti-theft
system, the vehicle is enabled to
start.
Your vehicle is equipped with two
electronically coded keys.
Additional spare keys can be
purchased through your dealer or
selected retailers. Be sure to
purchase coded keys with the Ford
logo to ensure proper functionality.
If both supplied keys are lost or
stolen, the vehicle and any other
keys must be reinitialized by the
dealer.
A theft indicator in the instrument
cluster provides operating status of
the anti-theft system. For more
information on this indicator and
its function, refer toWarning and
indicator lightsin the
Instrumentationchapter.
Programming spare keys
Use one of the two electronically
coded keys supplied with your
vehicle to program additional keys:

²Insert a coded key into the
ignition and turn to the On
position.
²Wait until the THEFT light in
the instrument cluster
illuminates and then turns off.
²Within 15 seconds, insert a new
key into the ignition and turn
the ignition to On or Start. The
vehicle does not have to be
started to program the key.
If the key has been coded properly,
the theft indicator will illuminate
for two seconds. The newly coded
key can then be used to start the
vehicle. This process may be
repeated to code up to 16 keys.
If the key has not been coded
properly, the theft indicator will
flash and the vehicle cannot be
started. There are several possible
explanations:
²The new key was not inserted
within 15 seconds.
²All 16 key codes have already
been stored.
²The key does not have an
electronic code.
REMOTE ENTRY SYSTEM (IF
EQUIPPED)
The remote entry system allows
you to lock or unlock all vehicle
doors without a key.

belt extensions are available at no
cost from your Ford or
Lincoln/Mercury dealer.
Use only extensions manufactured
by the same supplier as the safety
belt. Manufacturer identification is
located at the end of the webbing
on the label. Also, use the safety
belt extension only if the safety
belt is too short for you when fully
extended. Do not use extension to
change the fit of the shoulder belt
across the torso.

If the air bag is inflated,
the air bag will not
function again and must be
replaced immediately.Ifthe
air bag is not replaced, the
unrepaired area will increase the
risk of injury in a collision.
The SRS consists of:
²driver and passenger air bag
modules (which include the
inflators and air bags),
²one or more impact and safing
sensors,
²a readiness light and tone
²and the electrical wiring which
connects the components.
The diagnostic module monitors its
own internal circuits and the
supplemental air bag electrical
system readiness (including the
impact sensors), the system wiring,
the air bag system readiness light,
the air bag back up power and the
air bag ignitors.
Determining if the system is
operational
The SRS uses a readiness light in
the instrument cluster or a tone to
indicate the condition of the
system. Refer to theAir bag
readinesssection in the
Instrumentationchapter. Routine
maintenance of the air bag is not
required.

An on board air compressor and
solenoids are used to raise and
lower the vehicle. It is normal to
occasionally hear a buzz or clicking
from the vehicle even when the
ignition is turned off. The system
stays energized for 40 minutes
after the ignition is turned off to
compensate for any load changes
made after the vehicle is parked.
Air suspension service system
switch
The air suspension service system
switch is located below the glove
box at the lower right side of the
passenger foot well. Normal vehicle
operation does not require any
action by the driver. If this switch
is in the OFF position, the air
suspension system will not operate
and the CHECK SUSP warning
light in the instrument cluster will
illuminate.
On vehicles equipped with
Air Suspension, turn OFF
the Air Suspension switch prior
to jacking, hoisting or towing
your vehicle.
Check air suspension light
The warning and indicator light
CHECK SUSP illuminates when the
air suspension switch is turned off
or an air suspension system fault
has been detected.

vehicle frame or hook retainers
(not the bumper). Make sure there
is enough slack to allow the vehicle
to turn corners.
For more information, refer to
ªFord Recreational Vehicle and
Trailer Towing Guideº available
from your Ford dealer.
Using trailer lamps
See your local trailer retailer or
rental agency for proper
instructions and equipment for
hooking up trailer lamps.
Do not hook the trailer lights
directly into the vehicle's wiring
system. If the trailer lamps are not
connected properly, the warning
lights in the instrument cluster
may not work properly.
Using a hitch
Do not use hitches that:
²clamp onto the vehicle bumper
²attach to the axle.
Distribute the load so that only 10
to 15% of the total weight of the
trailer is on the tongue. Tie down
the load so that it does not shift
and change the weight on the
hitch. Follow the towing
instructions of a reputable rental
agency.
Using a load-equalizing hitch
Follow the hitch manufactures
guidelines for the installation and
specific use of a load equalizing
hitch on this vehicle. In no cases
