Turning the Passenger Airbag Off
WARNING:If the light fails to illuminate when the passenger air
bag switch is in the OFF position and the ignition switch is in
ON, contact your authorized dealer as soon as possible.
WARNING:In order to avoid inadvertent activation of the
switch, always remove the ignition key from the passenger air
bag ON and OFF switch.
WARNING:An infant in a rear-facing seat faces a high risk of
serious or fatal injuries from a deploying passenger airbag. Rear
facing infant seats should never be placed in the front seats, unless the
passenger airbag is turned off.
1. Insert the ignition key, turn the switch to
off, and hold it in the off position while
removing the key.
2. When the ignition is turned to off, the off
light illuminates briefly, momentarily shuts
off and then turns back on. This indicates
that the passenger airbag is deactivated.
Turning the Passenger Airbag Back On
WARNING:The safety belts for the driver and right front
passenger seating positions have been specifically designed to
function together with the airbags in certain types of crashes. When
you turn off your airbag, you not only lose the protection of the airbag,
you also may reduce the effectiveness of your safety belt system, which
was designed to work with the airbag. If you are not a person who
meets the requirements stated in the National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration or Transport Canada deactivation criteria, turning off
the airbag can increase the risk of serious injury or death in a crash.

WARNING:If your vehicle has rear seats, always transport
children who are 12 and younger in a rear seating position.
Always use safety belts and child restraints properly. Do not place a
child in a rear facing infant seat in the front seat unless your vehicle is
equipped with an airbag ON and OFF switch and the passenger airbag
is turned off. This is because the back of the infant seat is too close to
the inflating airbag and the risk of a fatal injury to the infant when the
airbag inflates is substantial.
WARNING:If the OFF light is illuminated when the passenger
airbag switch is in the ON position and the ignition switch is in
ON, have the passenger airbag switch serviced at an authorized dealer
immediately.
The passenger airbag remains off until you turn it back on.
1. Insert the ignition key and turn the
switch to on.
2. The OFF light will briefly illuminate
when the ignition is turned on. This
indicates that the passenger airbag is
operational.
The passenger side airbag should always be on (the airbag OFF light
should not be illuminated) unless the passenger is a person who meets
the requirements stated either in Category 1, 2 or 3 of the National
Highway Traffic Safety Administration/Transport Canada deactivation
criteria which follows.
The vast majority of drivers and passengers are much safer with an
airbag than without. To do their job and reduce the risk of life
threatening injuries, airbags must open with great force, and this force
can pose a potentially deadly risk in some situations, particularly when a
front seat occupant is not properly buckled up. The most effective way
to reduce the risk of unnecessary airbag injuries without reducing the
overall safety of the vehicle is to make sure all occupants are properly
restrained in the vehicle, especially in the front seat. This provides the

GENERAL INFORMATION ON RADIO FREQUENCIES
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules and with Industry
Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) This device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Note:Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the
equipment. The termICbefore the radio certification number only
signifies that Industry Canada technical specifications were met.
The typical operating range for your transmitter is approximately 33 feet
(10 meters). Vehicles with the remote start feature will have a greater
range. A decrease in operating range could be caused by:
•weather conditions
•nearby radio towers
•structures around your vehicle
•other vehicles parked next to your vehicle.
The radio frequency used by your remote control can also be used by
other short-distance radio transmissions, for example amateur radios,
medical equipment, wireless headphones, remote controls and alarm
systems. If the frequencies are jammed, you will not be able to use your
remote control. You can lock and unlock the doors with the key.
Note:Make sure your vehicle is locked before leaving it unattended.
Note:If you are in range, the remote control will operate if you press
any button unintentionally.
REMOTE CONTROL (IF EQUIPPED)
If there are problems with the
remote entry system, make sure to
take all remote entry transmitters
with you to the authorized dealer in
order to aid in troubleshooting the
problem.
Note:If the vehicle is equipped with the E-Guard Cargo Protection
System™ the remote transmitter unlock command will only unlock the
front doors. The only way to unlock the side or rear cargo doors from
outside the vehicle is with the key.

Replacing the Battery
Note:Refer to local regulations when disposing of transmitter batteries.
Note:Replacing the battery will not delete the remote control from your
vehicle. The remote control should operate normally after battery
replacement.
The remote entry transmitter uses one coin type three-volt lithium
battery CR2032 or equivalent.
To replace the battery:
1. Twist a thin coin between the
two halves of the remote entry
transmitter near the key ring.
Note:Do not take the rubber cover
and circuit board off the front
housing of the remote entry
transmitter.
2. Do not wipe off any grease on
the battery terminals on the back
surface of the circuit board.
3. Remove the old battery.
4. Insert the new battery. Refer to the diagram inside the remote entry
transmitter for the correct orientation of the battery. Press the battery
down to ensure that the battery is fully seated in the battery housing
cavity.
5. Snap the two halves back together.

SECURILOCK® PASSIVE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
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 issues 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.
The system is an engine immobilization system. It helps prevent the
engine from starting 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.
Anti-Theft Indicator
The anti-theft indicator is located in the instrument cluster.
•When the ignition is off, the indicator will flash once every
two seconds to indicate the SecuriLock system is functioning
as a theft deterrent.
•When the ignition is on, the indicator will glow for three seconds,
then turn off to indicate normal system functionality.
Vehicles without the SecuriLock Passive Anti-theft system behave as
follows:
•When the ignition is off, the indicator will not flash.
•When the ignition is on, the indicator will glow for three seconds to
indicate the engine is enabled.

Automatic Arming
Your vehicle arms immediately after you switch the ignition off.
Automatic Disarming

Replacement Keys
If your keys 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.
The key codes need to be erased from your vehicle and new coded keys

the spare key programmed if two previously programmed coded keys are
not available
Read and understand the entire procedure before you begin.
1. Insert the first previously programmed coded key into the ignition.
2. Turn the ignition from off to on. Keep the ignition on for at least three
seconds, but no more than 10 seconds.
3. Turn the ignition off and remove the first coded key from the ignition.
4. After three seconds but within 10 seconds of removing the first coded
