remote control FORD MUSTANG 2012 5.G User Guide

The turn signal lamps will flash once when all doors, the hood and the
trunk are closed indicating the vehicle is locked and entering the
20 second countdown. If any closure is not properly closed the turn
signal lamps will not flash and that closure will not be armed.
Disarming the system
You can disarm the system by any of the following actions:
•Unlock the doors by using the remote entry transmitter portion of
your integrated keyhead transmitter.
•Turn ignition to the on position with a valid programmed SecuriLock
key or integrated keyhead transmitter (IKT).
•Press the panic control on the remote entry transmitter portion of
your IKT. This will only shut off the horn and turn lamps when the
alarm is sounding. The alarm system will still be armed.
•Use a key in the driver’s door to unlock the vehicle.
Pressing the power door unlock control within the 20 second prearmed
mode will return the vehicle to a disarmed state.
Note:Unlocking the trunk inhibits the motion sensing system but the
system continues to monitor the doors, hood and vehicle incline. Once
the trunk becomes closed the motion sensing system will rearm.
Triggering the anti-theft system
The armed system will be triggered if:
•Any door, the hood or the trunk is opened without using the remote
entry transmitter portion of your IKT or key in driver door cylinder.
•The ignition is turned to the on position with an invalid
unprogrammed SecuriLockkey or IKT.
•The vehicle is towed/inclined.
•Motion is detected in the interior passenger compartment.

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 theWarning lights and
chimessection in theInstrument Clusterchapter. Routine maintenance
of the airbag is not required.
A difficulty with the system is indicated by one or more of the following:
•The readiness light will either
flash or stay lit.
•The readiness light will not
illuminate immediately after
ignition is turned on.
•A series of five beeps will be heard. The tone pattern will repeat
periodically until the problem and/or light are repaired.
If any of these things happen, even intermittently, contact your
authorized dealer as soon as possible. Unless serviced, the system may
not function properly in the event of a collision.
SOS Post-Crash Alert System™
The system automatically flashes the turn signal lamps and sounds the
horn three times at four second intervals in the event of a serious impact
that deploys an airbag (front, side, side curtain [if equipped] or Safety
Canopy[if equipped]) or the safety belt pretensioners.
The system can be turned off when any one of the following actions are
taken by the driver or any other person:
•pressing the hazard control button,
•or pressing the panic button on the remote entry transmitter.
The feature will continue to operate until the vehicle runs out of power.
Disposal of airbags and airbag equipped vehicles
See authorized dealer. Airbags MUST BE disposed of by qualified
personnel.
