key fob FORD ESCORT 2000 6.G Owners Manual

Keep vehicle doors and
luggage compartment
locked and keep keys out of a
child's reach. Unsupervised
children could lock themselves in
an open trunk and risk injury.
Children should be taught not to
play in vehicles.
On hot days, the temperature in the trunk or vehicle interior can
rise very quickly. Exposure of people or animals to these high
temperatures for even a short time can cause death or serious
heat-related injuries, including brain damage. Small children are
particularly at risk.

To program the transmitters yourself:
²Insert a key in the ignition and
turn from 2 (ACC) to 3 (ON)
eight times in rapid succession

programming mode has been
entered.
²Within 20 seconds, program a
remote transmitter by pressing any button on a transmitter. The doors

programmed. (If more than 20 seconds pass before pressing a remote
transmitter button, the programming mode will exit and the procedure
will have to be repeated.)

The doors will lock/unlock to confirm that each remote transmitter has
been programmed.
²When you have completed programming the remote transmitters, turn
the ignition to 2 (ACC) or wait 20 seconds. Again the doors will
