Do not leave the liftgate open while driving. Doing so could cause serious
damage to the liftgate and its components as well as allowing carbon
monoxide to enter the vehicle.
Make sure that the liftgate door is closed to prevent exhaust
fumes from being drawn into the vehicle. This will also prevent
passengers and cargo from falling out. If you must drive with the
liftgate door open, keep the vents open so outside air comes into the
vehicle
LUGGAGE RACK (IF EQUIPPED)
The maximum recommended load is
100 kg (220 lbs) on the luggage
rack structure. The loadmust be
placed directly on the dealer
installed cross bars (if equipped)
and luggage rack. The vehicle’s roof
panelis notdesigned to carry a
load.
When loading the luggage rack, it is recommended to evenly distribute
the load, as well as maintain a low center of gravity. Ensure that the load
is securely fastened.
Your fuel economy will decrease when you drive with items on the
luggage rack. When the rack is loaded, check the tightness of the rear
adjusting thumbwheel before driving and at each refueling stop.
Loaded vehicles, with a higher center of gravity, may handle
differently than unloaded vehicles. Extra precautions, such as
slower speeds and increased stopping distance, should be taken when
driving a heavily loaded vehicle.

SECURILOCKPASSIVE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM
SecuriLock
passive anti-theft system is an engine immobilization
system. This system is designed to 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.
Your vehicle comes with two coded keys; additional coded keys may be
purchased from your dealer. The dealer can program your spare keys to
2005 Focus(foc)
Owners Guide (post-2002-fmt)
USA English(fus)

59

your vehicle or you can program the keys yourself. Refer to
Programming spare keysfor instructions on how to program the coded
key.
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.
Theft indicator
The theft indicator is located in the instrument cluster.
•When the ignition is in the 2 (OFF) position, the indicator will flash
once every 2 seconds to indicate the SecuriLock
system is
functioning as a theft deterrent.
•When the ignition is in the 3 (ON) position, the indicator will glow for
3 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 3 (ON) position. If
this occurs, the vehicle should be taken to an authorized dealer for
service.
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 a dealership. 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.
Programming spare keys
You can program your own coded keys to your vehicle. Please read and
understand the entire procedure before you begin.
