FORD FIESTA 2011 6.G Owners Manual

Replacing lost remote entry transmitters–integrated keyhead
transmitters (IKTs)
If you would like to have your remote entry transmitter reprogrammed
because you lost one, or would like to buy additional remote entry
transmitters, you can either reprogram them yourself, or takeall
remote entry transmittersto your authorized dealer for
reprogramming.
Tips:
•You must have two previously programmed coded keys (keys that
already operate your vehicle’s engine) and the new unprogrammed
key(s) readily accessible.
•If two previously programmed coded keys are not available, you must
take your vehicle to your authorized dealer to have the spare key(s)
programmed.
Please read and understand the entire procedure before you begin.
To reprogram the remote entry transmitters:
1. Insert the first programmed key into the ignition and turn the key
from off to run (maintain the key in run for approximately 3 seconds).
2. Turn the first key to off and remove it from the ignition.
3. Within 10 seconds of turning the key to off, insert a second
programmed key into the ignition and turn the key from off to run
(maintain the key in run for approximately 3 seconds).
4. Turn the second key to off and remove it from the ignition.
5. Within 10 seconds of turning the second key to off, insert the new,
unprogrammed key into the ignition and turn the key from off to run
(maintain the key in run for approximately 3 seconds).
If you would like to program additional key(s) (up to a total of 8 keys
can be programmed), repeat Steps1-5foreach additional key.
6. The Securilock
passive anti-theft system portion of the key is now
programmed. To program the remote keyless entry functions of the key
follow Steps 1-3 below.
Note:When programming remote keyless entry functions, you will delete
previous programming of all current keys so you must program all the
keys you need every time you do the process.
1. Turn the ignition switch from off to run four times in rapid succession
(within six seconds), with the fourth turn ending in off. If the program
mode is successfully entered , a chime will sound.
Note:If no action is taken within 10 seconds after a transmitter has
been programmed, the programming sequence ends.

occurs:
•The ignition is turned to run.
•Ten seconds have passed since entering programming mode or since
the last transmitter was programmed.
•The maximum number (eight) of transmitters has been programmed.

Illuminated entry
The interior lamps illuminate when the remote entry system is used to
unlock and the door and the driver door has been opened.
The illuminated entry system will turn off the interior lights if:
•the ignition switch is turned to the on position, or
•the remote transmitter lock control is pressed with the doors closed,
or
•after 25 seconds of illumination.

SECURILOCKPASSIVE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM
SecuriLock
passive anti-theft system is an engine immobilization
system. This system is designed to help prevent the engine from being
started unless acoded key programmed to your vehicleis used. The
use of the wrong type of coded key may lead to a “no-start” condition.
Locks and Security
142
2011 Fiesta(fie)
Owners Guide, 1st Printing
USA(fus)

Your vehicle comes with two coded keys; additional coded keys may be
purchased from and programmed by your authorized dealer.
Note:The SecuriLock
passive anti-theft 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:Large metallic objects, electronic devices that are used to
purchase gasoline or similar items, or a second coded key on the same
key chain may cause vehicle starting issues. You need to prevent these
objects from touching the coded key while starting the engine. These
objects will not cause damage to the coded key, but may cause a
momentary issue if they are too close to the key when starting the
engine. If a problem occurs, turn the ignition off, remove all objects on
the key chain away from the coded key and restart the engine.
Note: Do not leave a duplicate coded key in the vehicle. Always
take your keys and lock all doors when leaving the vehicle.
Anti-theft indicator
The anti-theft indicator is located in the instrument cluster.
•When the ignition is in the off
position, the indicator will flash
once every two seconds to
indicate the SecuriLock
system
is functioning as a theft
deterrent.
•When the ignition is in the on position, the indicator will glow for
three seconds, then turn off, to indicate normal system functionality.
If a problem occurs with the SecuriLock
system, the indicator will flash
rapidly or glow steadily when the ignition is in the on position. If this
occurs, turn the ignition off then back to on to make sure there was no
electronic interference with the programmed key. If the vehicle doesn’t
start, try to start it with the 2nd programmed key and if successful
contact your authorized dealership for key replacement. If the indicator
still flashes rapidly or glows steadily, and the vehicle will not start,
contact your authorized dealer as soon as possible for service.
Automatic arming
The vehicle is armed immediately after switching the ignition to the off
position.
Automatic disarming
Switching the ignition to the on position with acoded keydisarms the
vehicle.

Replacement keys
If your keys are lost or stolen and you don’t 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 will
need to be programmed.
Replacing coded keys can be very costly. Store an extra programmed key
away from the vehicle in a safe place to help prevent any
inconveniences. Please visit an authorized dealer to purchase additional
spare or replacement keys.
PERIMETER ALARM SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
The perimeter anti-theft system will warn you in the event of an
unauthorized entry to your vehicle.
If there is any potential perimeter anti-theft problem with your vehicle,
ensureALL remote entry transmittersare taken to the authorized
dealer to aid in troubleshooting.
Arming the system
When armed, this system will respond if unauthorized entry is
attempted. When unauthorized entry occurs, the system will flash the
park/turn lamps and will sound the horn.
The system is ready to arm whenever the key is removed from the
ignition. Either of the following actions will prearm the alarm system:
•Press the lock control on the remote entry transmitter.
•Open a door and press the power door lock control to lock all the
doors, and then close the door.
Disarming the system
You can disarm the system by any of the following actions:
•Unlock the doors by pressing the
control on your remote entry
transmitter.
•Unlock the doors with a key. Turn the key full travel (toward the front
of the vehicle) to ensure the alarm disarms.
•Turn the ignition to the on or start position with a programmed coded
ignition key.
Pressing the power door unlock control within the 20 second pre-armed
mode will return the vehicle to a disarmed state.
Triggering the anti-theft system
The armed system will be triggered if any door, trunk or the hood is
opened without using the key or the remote entry transmitter.
