SECURILOCKYPASSIVE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM
Your vehicle is equipped with a coded-key anti-theft system. Only the
correct keywill be able to start your vehicle. If your keys are lost or
stolen, you must take your vehicle to your dealership for key
reprogramming.
This system provides an advanced level of vehicle theft protection. Your
vehicle's engine can only be started with the two coded keys provided
with your vehicle. Each time you start your vehicle, the coded key is
read by the anti-theft system. If the key identification code matches the
code stored in the anti-theft system, the vehicle's engine is allowed to
start. If the key identification code does not match the code stored in
the system or if a coded key is not detected (vehicle theft situation), the
vehicle's engine will not operate.
If there is any anti-theft problem with your vehicle, ensureALL coded
keysfor that vehicle are brought to the dealership, to aid in
troubleshooting.
The SecuriLockypassive anti-theft system is not compatible with
aftermarket remote start systems. Use of these systems may result in
vehicle starting problems and a loss of security protection. Large metallic
objects, electronic devices on the key chain that can be used to purchase
gasoline or similar items, or a second key on the same key ring as the
PATS ignition key may cause vehicle starting concern and record DTC's
under certain conditions. If present, you need to keep these objects from
touching the PATS ignition key while starting the engine. These objects
and devices cannot damage the PATS ignition key, but can cause a
momentary concern if they are too close to the key during engine start.
If a problem occurs, turn ignition OFF and restart the engine with all
other objects on the key ring held away from the ignition key. Check to
make sure the encoded ignition key is an approved Ford encoded
ignition key.
Spare coded keys can be purchased from your dealership and
programmed to your anti-theft system. Refer toProgramming spare
SecuriLockykeysfor more information.
If one or both of your coded keys are lost or stolen and you want to
ensure the lost or stolen key will not operate your vehicle, bring your
vehicle and all available coded keys to your dealership for reinitialization.

Theft indicator
The theft indicator in the instrument cluster will operate as follows:
²When the ignition is OFF, the theft indicator will flash briefly every
two seconds to indicate the anti-theft system is protecting your
vehicle.
²When the ignition is turned to ON or START, the theft indicator will
light for three seconds and then go out. If the theft indicator stays on
for an extended period of time or flashes rapidly, have the system
serviced by your dealership or a qualified technician.
Programming spare SecuriLockYkeys
Spare coded keys can be purchased from your dealership and
programmed to your anti-theft system (up to a total of eight keys). Your
dealership can program your new coded key(s) to your vehicle or you
can do it yourself using the following simple procedure. To program a
new coded key yourself, you will need two previously programmed coded
keys (keys that already operate your vehicle's engine). If two previously
programmed coded keys are not available (one or both of your original
keys were lost or stolen), you must bring your vehicle to your dealership
to have the spare coded key(s) programmed.
Procedure to program spare SecuriLockYkeys to your vehicle
New coded keys must have the correct mechanical key cut for your
vehicle.
Conventional (non-coded) keyscannotbe programmed to your vehicle.
You will need to have two previously programmed coded keys and the
new unprogrammed SecuriLockykey readily accessible for timely
implementation of each step in the procedure. Please read and
understand the entire procedure before you begin.
1. Insert the first previously programmed coded key into the ignition and
turn the ignition from OFF to ON (maintain ignition in ON for at least
one second).
2. Turn ignition to OFF and remove the first coded key from the ignition.
3. Within five seconds of turning the ignition to OFF, insert the second
previously programmed coded key into the ignition and turn the ignition
from OFF to ON (maintain ignition in ON for at least one second but no
more than five seconds).
