KEYLESS ENTRY (IF EQUIPPED)
SECURICODE™ KEYLESS ENTRY
KEYPAD
You can use the keypad to:
•lock or unlock the doors
• recall memory seat and mirror
positions (if equipped)
• program and erase user codes
• arm and disarm the anti-theft alarm.
The keypad can be operated with the
factory set 5-digit entry code. The code is
located on the owner ’s wallet card in the
glove box and is available from your
authorized dealer. You can also create up
to five of your own 5-digit personal entry
codes.
Programming a Personal Entry Code
To create your own personal entry code:
1. Enter the factory set code.
2. Press the 1·2 on the keypad within five seconds.
3. Enter your personal 5-digit code. Each number must be entered within five
seconds of each other. 4. For memory recall feature, enter the
sixth digit 1·2 to store driver 1 settings
or 3·4 to store driver 2 settings.
Note: Pressing 5·6, 7·8, or 9·0 keypad
numbers as a sixth digit will not recall a
driver memory setting.
Note: The factory-set code cannot be
associated with a memory setting.
5. The doors will lock then unlock to confirm that your personal entry code
has been programmed.
You may also program a personal entry
code through the MyFord Touch® system
(if equipped). See General Information
(page 326).
Tips:
• Do not set a code that uses five of the
same number.
• Do not use five numbers in sequential
order.
• The factory set code will work even if
you have set your own personal code.
Erasing a Personal Code
1. Enter the factory set 5-digit code.
2. Press and release the 1·2 on the keypad
within five seconds.
3. Press and hold the 1·2 for two seconds.
This must be done within five seconds
of completing Step 2.
All personal codes are now erased and only
the factory set 5–digit code will work.
Anti-Scan Feature
The keypad will go into an anti-scan mode
if the wrong code has been entered seven
times (35 consecutive button presses).
This mode disables the keypad for one
minute and the keypad lamp will flash.

To reduce smearing we recommend the
following:
•Lower the sensitivity of the autowipers.
• Switch to normal or high speed wipe.
• Switch the autowipers off.
High sensitivity

Low sensitivity
C
The wipers will function when moisture is
detected on the windshield. The rain
sensor will continue to monitor the amount
of moisture on the windshield and adjust
the speed of the wipers automatically.
Use the rotary control to adjust the
sensitivity of the rain sensor. With low
sensitivity, the wipers will operate when
the sensor detects a large amount of
moisture on the windshield. With high
sensitivity, the wipers will operate when
the sensor detects a small amount of
moisture on the windshield.
Keep the outside of the windshield clean.
Sensor performance will be affected if the
area around the interior mirror is dirty. The
rain sensor is very sensitive and the wipers
may operate if dirt, mist or flies hit the
windshield. WINDSHIELD WASHERS
Note:
Do not operate the washers when
the washer reservoir is empty. This may
cause the washer pump to overheat.The washers will spray for as long as you
pull the lever toward you. When you
release the lever, the wipers will operate
for a short time.
A wipe will occur a few seconds after
washing to clear any remaining washer
fluid.

Integrated Blind Spot Mirrors (If
Equipped)
WARNING
Objects in the blind spot mirror are
closer than they appear.
Blind spot mirrors have an integrated
convex mirror built into the upper outboard
corner of the exterior mirrors. They are
designed to increase your visibility along
the side of your vehicle.
Check the main mirror first before a lane
change, then check the blind spot mirror.
If no vehicles are present in the blind spot
mirror and the traffic in the adjacent lane
is at a safe distance, signal that you intend
to change lanes. Glance over your shoulder
to verify traffic is clear and carefully
change lanes.
The image of the approaching vehicle is
small and near the inboard edge of the
main mirror when it is at a distance. The
image becomes larger and begins to move
outboard across the main mirror as the
vehicle approaches (A). The image will
transition from the main mirror and begin
to appear in the blind spot mirror as the
vehicle approaches (B). The vehicle will
transition to your peripheral field of view
as it leaves the blind spot mirror (C).
Blind Spot Monitor (If Equipped)
See Blind Spot Monitor (page 171).
INTERIOR MIRROR
WARNING
Do not adjust the mirror when your
vehicle is moving.
Note:Do not clean the housing or glass of
any mirror with harsh abrasives, fuel or other
petroleum or ammonia-based cleaning
products.
You can adjust the interior mirror to your
preference. Some mirrors also have a
second pivot point. This lets you move the
mirror head up or down and from side to
side.
Pull the tab below the mirror toward you
to reduce glare at night.
Auto-Dimming Mirror (If Equipped)
Note: Do not block the sensors on the front
and back of the mirror. Mirror performance
may be affected. A rear center passenger or
raised rear center head restraint may also
block light from reaching the sensor.

cause damage to the heated grid lines
and will not be covered by your
warranty.
Heated Exterior Mirror (If Equipped)
Note: Do not remove ice from the mirrors
with a scraper or attempt to readjust the
mirror glass if it is frozen in place. These
actions could cause damage to the glass
and mirrors.
Note: Do not clean the housing or glass of
any mirror with harsh abrasives, fuel or other
petroleum-based cleaning products. Both mirrors are heated to remove ice, mist
and fog when the heated rear window is
switched on.
CABIN AIR FILTER
Your vehicle is equipped with a cabin air
filter. It is located just in front of the
windshield under the cowl panel grille on
the passenger's side of your vehicle.
The particulate filtration system is
designed to reduce the concentration of
airborne particles such as dust, spores and
pollen in the air being supplied to the
interior of your vehicle.
Note:
A cabin air filter must be installed at
all times to prevent foreign objects from
entering the system. Running the system
without a filter in place could result in
degradation or damage to the system.
The particulate filtration system gives you
and your passengers the following
benefits:
• It improves your driving comfort by
reducing particle concentration.
• It improves the interior compartment
cleanliness.
• It protects the climate control
components from particle deposits.
The filter should be replaced at regular
intervals. See the Scheduled
Maintenance chapter.
For additional cabin air filter information,
or to replace the filter, see an authorized
dealer.
REMOTE START (IF EQUIPPED)
The climate control system adjusts the
cabin temperature during remote start.
