PASSIVE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM
Note:
The system is not compatible with
non-Ford aftermarket remote start systems.
Use of these systems may result in vehicle
starting problems and a loss of security
protection.
Note: Metallic objects, electronic devices or
a second coded key on the same key chain
may cause vehicle starting problems if they
are too close to the key when starting the
engine. Prevent these objects from touching
the coded key while starting the engine.
Switch the ignition off, move all objects on
the key chain away from the coded key and
restart the engine if a problem occurs.
Note: Do not leave a duplicate coded key
in the vehicle. Always take your keys and
lock all doors when leaving the vehicle. SecuriLock®
The system is an engine immobilization
system. It is designed to help prevent the
engine from being started unless a coded
key programmed to your vehicle is used.
Using the wrong key may prevent the engine
from starting. A message may appear in the
information display.
If you are unable to start the engine with a
correctly coded key, a malfunction has
happened and a message may appear in the
information display.
Automatic Arming
The vehicle arms immediately after you
switch the ignition off.
Automatic Disarming
Switching the ignition on with a coded key
disarms the vehicle.
Replacement Keys
Note:
Your vehicle comes equipped with two
intelligent access keys. The intelligent access key functions as a
programmed key that operates the driver
door lock and activates the intelligent access
with push button start system, as well as a
remote control.
If your programmed transmitters are lost or
stolen and you do not have an extra coded
key, you will need to have your vehicle
towed to an authorized dealer. You need to
erase the key codes from your vehicle and
program new coded keys.
Store an extra programmed key away from
the vehicle in a safe place to help prevent
any inconveniences. See your authorized
dealer to purchase additional spare or
replacement keys.
Programming a Spare Intelligent Access
Key
See your authorized dealer to have
additional keys programmed to your vehicle.

ANTI-THEFT ALARM
The active anti-theft system is designed to
warn you in the event of unauthorized
vehicle entry and is also designed to help
prevent unwanted towing of your vehicle.
You can choose what is monitored by arming
the system in different ways. See
Information Displays (page 134).
The direction indicators flash and the horn
sounds if the system triggers while the alarm
is armed.
Take all remote controls to an authorized
dealer if there is any potential alarm problem
with your vehicle.
Using the System
You can select two levels of alarm security.
You can change the level of security when
the ignition is switched off through the
information display with the two options
below: Perimeter Sensing (If Equipped)
Perimeter sensing monitors the following:
•
Doors.
• Hood.
• Liftgate.
All Sensors (If Equipped)
All sensors monitors the following:
• Doors.
• Hood.
• Liftgate.
• Movement inside your vehicle.
• Change in vehicle inclination, for
example, unwanted towing.
Note: Do not choose all sensors monitor
mode when the vehicle is in transport or if
movement within the vehicle is likely to
occur. Note:
For correct operation of the interior
motion detection system, make sure you
close all the windows prior to arming the
system. This helps prevent accidental alarm
activation due to external influences.
Additionally, the interior motion sensing
system does not arm if any door is ajar.
Arming the Alarm
The alarm is ready to arm when there is not
a key in the ignition. Lock your vehicle using
the remote control or keyless entry keypad.
You can also lock your vehicle using the lock
sensor on the exterior door handle if your
vehicle is equipped with intelligent access.
See
Locking and Unlocking (page 81).
The direction indicators flash once after you
lock your vehicle. This indicates the alarm is
in the pre-armed mode. It fully arms after 20
seconds.

WINDSHIELD WIPERS - VEHICLES
WITH: HEATED WIPER BLADES
Heated Wiper Blade
The heated wiper blades turn on in low
temperature when the windshield wipers are
active or defrost is on. See Automatic
Climate Control (page 168).
Note: In below freezing temperatures, the
heated wiper blades turn on when the wipers
are inactive.
AUTOWIPERS
Wet or winter driving conditions with ice,
snow or salty road mist can cause
inconsistent and unexpected wiping or
smearing. Autowipers On.
A
High sensitivity.
B
Low sensitivity.
C Use the rotary control to adjust the
sensitivity of the autowipers.
When you select low sensitivity, the wipers
operate when the sensor detects a large
amount of water on the windshield. When
you select high sensitivity, the wipers
operate when the sensor detects a small
amount of water on the windshield. Keep the outside of the windshield clean.
The rain sensor is very sensitive and the
wipers may operate if dirt, mist or insects hit
the windshield.
In these conditions, you can do the following:
•
Lower the sensitivity of the autowipers
to reduce the amount of smearing on the
windshield.
• Switch to normal or high-speed wipe.
• Switch autowipers off.
Note: Fully defrost the windshield before you
switch the windshield wipers on.
Note: Make sure that you switch the
windshield wipers off before entering a car
wash.
Note: If streaks or smears appear on the
windshield, clean the windshield and the
wiper blades. If that does not resolve the
issue, install new wiper blades.
Note: If you switch autolamps and
autowipers on, the headlamps turn on when
the windshield wipers continuously operate.

This setting defaults to on and remains on
until you switch it off in the touchscreen.
When you switch the feature off, the wipers
do not operate based on the rain sensor.
When you switch on the windshield wipers
to the intermittent wipe position with the
feature off, the wipers use the wipe speed
set by the rotary control.
Low Temperature Wipe Inhibit
The rain sensing feature will not operate
immediately after starting your vehicle when
it is in park (P) and the outside temperature
is below 32°F (0°C). You can switch on the
wipers by adjusting the rain sensor sensitivity
or adjusting the wiper speed.
This prevents damage to the wiper blades
from ice and snow on the windshield. WINDSHIELD WASHERS

operate the windshield washers.
When you release the lever, the wipers
operate for a short time. When activated, a
courtesy wipe occurs a short time after the

headlamps turn on within 10 seconds of
switching the wipers on. They turn off
approximately 60 seconds after you switch
the windshield wipers off.
The headlamps do not turn on with the
wipers:
•
During a single wipe.
