REMOTE START CLIMATE OPERATION (IF EQUIPPED)
The climate control system will condition the cabin temperature during
remote start based on the outside temperature. Engine idle may increase
to help with adjusting the cabin temperature.
Note:No climate control adjustments will be recognized during remote
start operation and none of the climate function indicators will be
illuminated while the vehicle is in remote start. Once the ignition is
cycled to the on position, the climate control system will return to the
previous settings (last ignition-on cycle) and adjustments can be made
normally. If the previous setting was off, the climate control system will
turn off.
If you previously had any of the following activated: heated seats (if
equipped), cooled seats (if equipped), heated mirrors (if equipped), or
rear defrost, they will not return to their previous settings (on) when the
ignition is turned on and will need to be re-activated if desired.
For more information on remote start climate settings and options, refer
toMessage Centerin theInstrument Clusterchapter.
Manual climate control
For hot weather conditions:
•The climate control system will be set to MAX A/C.
For cold weather conditions:
•The climate control system will be set to provide maximum heating
in
(floor/defrost) mode.
•Rear defrost/heated mirrors (if equipped) will be activated.
For moderate weather conditions:
•The interior cabin will be heated, cooled or off, based upon the
previous operating state (last ignition-on cycle).
•Rear defrost/heated mirrors (if equipped) will be deactivated.
Automatic climate control
For hot weather conditions:
•The interior cabin will be set to 72°F (22°C).
•The cooled seats (if equipped and if the feature is selected to AUTO
in the message center) will be set to high.

KEYS
Integrated keyhead transmitters (IKTs) (if equipped)
Your vehicle may be equipped with
two integrated keyhead transmitters
(IKTs). The key blade is used to
start the vehicle and unlock/lock the
driver’s door from outside the
vehicle. The transmitter portion
functions as the remote entry
transmitter.
Your IKTs are programmed to your vehicle; using a non-programmed key
will not permit your vehicle to start. If you lose one or both of your IKTs,
replacements are available through your authorized dealer. Standard
SecuriLockkeys without remote entry transmitter functionality can also
be purchased from your authorized dealer if desired.
Always carry a spare key with you in case of an emergency.
For more information regarding programming replacement IKTs, refer to
theSecuriLockpassive anti-theft systemsection later in this chapter.
Note:Your vehicle’s IKTs were
issued with a security label that
provides important vehicle key cut
information. It is recommended that
you keep the label in a safe place
for future reference.
Intelligent Access Key (IA key) (if equipped)
Your vehicle may be equipped with
two intelligent access keys which
operate the power locks and the
remote start system. The IA key
must be in the vehicle to activate
the push button start system.

The following information MAY help customers who choose to use a non
Ford-approved remote start system. The actions provided below do NOT
make MyKeycompatible with non Ford-approved remote start systems,
but it MAY help you to retain some MyKeyfunctions.
Vehicles equipped with traditional keys:
When using a non Ford-approved remote start system, the default
settings may recognize the remote start system as an additional admin
key with its associated privileges. This makes it NOT compatible with
MyKey. The following action may help you to retain some MyKey
functions:
1. Restart the engine when you insert a key into the ignition cylinder.
2. In addition to the key that you have already programmed as a
MyKey, owners of vehicles equipped with traditional keys may want to
program the non Ford-approved remote start system as a MyKeyif the
remote start fob is used by the MyKey driver.
To program a non Ford-approved remote start system as MyKey,dothe
following:
1. Enter the vehicle and close all doors.
2. Remote start the vehicle using a non Ford-approved remote start fob.
3. Follow steps 1-4 in theCreate a MyKeysection.
Vehicles equipped with an intelligent access key (push button
start)
•It is not possible to program any remote start system as MyKeyon
vehicles equipped with intelligent access key (push button start).
Therefore, you should treat the remote start fob as you would any
other admin key. When the vehicle is started using remote start, the
system will stall the engine when you either enter the vehicle or shift
the vehicle into gear. Prior to the engine stall, the vehicle will have
administrative privileges. When you restart the engine, the vehicle will
identify the user as an admin or MyKeydrive depending on the
settings of the actual key used to start the vehicle.
Note:For all vehicles, the number of MYKEY(S) PROGRAMMED or
ADMIN KEYS PROGRAMMED that is displayed in the MyKeysystem
status menus will include the non Ford-approved remote start system as
an additional key in the total count. See theCheck MyKeysystem
statussection.

2. Remote start the vehicle using your non Ford-approved remote start
fob.

REMOTE ENTRY SYSTEM
The integrated keyhead transmitters (IKTs) and intelligent access keys
(IA key) comply with part 15 of the FCC rules and with RSS-210 of
Industry Canada. 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.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to
operate the equipment.
The typical operating range for your transmitter is approximately 33 feet
(10 meters) unless equipped with remote start, which allows for greater
range performance. A decrease in operating range could be caused by:
•weather conditions,
•nearby radio towers,
•structures around the vehicle, or
•other vehicles parked next to your vehicle.
