REMOTE ENTRY SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
FCC ID: LXP-RX4318 IC: 2298A-RX4318
The integrated keyhead transmitters (IKTs) and intelligent access keys
(IA key) comply with part 15 of the FCC rules and with RSS-210 of
Industry Canada. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) This device
must accept any interference received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to
operate the equipment.
The typical operating range for your transmitter is approximately 66 feet
(20 meters). A decrease in operating range could be caused by:
•weather conditions,
•nearby radio towers,
•structures around the vehicle, or
•other vehicles parked next to your vehicle.
The transmitter allows you to:
•remotely unlock the vehicle doors.
•remotely lock all the vehicle doors.
•remotely open the trunk.
•arm and disarm the perimeter anti-theft system.
•activate the panic alarm.
•operate the illuminated entry feature.

Intelligent access (if equipped)
Your intelligent access system uses a radio frequency (RF) signal to
communicate with your vehicle and authorize your vehicle to unlock
when commanded (either by touching the inside of any exterior door
handle, the luggage compartment handle, or a button on the transmitter
itself). If excessive RF interference is present in the area, or if your
vehicle battery is low, it may be necessary to mechanically unlock your
door. The mechanical key blade in your IA key can be used to open the
driver’s door in this situation (refer toIntelligent access keyin this
chapter for more information on the location and use of the mechanical
key blade).
Your vehicle will allow you to unlock and enter your vehicle without
actively using a key or transmitter. You can use the intelligent access
feature at any door or at the liftgate. You can activate the intelligent
access feature as long as you have one of your IA keys within range of
the front doors or the liftgate.

SECURILOCKPASSIVE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM
SecuriLockpassive anti-theft system is an engine immobilization
system. This system is designed to help prevent the engine from being
started unless acoded integrated keyhead transmitter (IKT) or
intelligent access keys programmed to your vehicleis used. The
use of the wrong type of coded key may lead to a “no-start” condition.
The message center will display: NO KEY DETECTED.
If you are unable to start the engine with a correctly coded key, this
indicates a malfunction. The message center will display: STARTING
SYSTEM MALFUNCTION.
Your vehicle comes with two coded integrated keyhead transmitters or
intelligent access keys; additional coded transmitters may be purchased
from your authorized dealer. The authorized dealer can program your
spare transmitters to your vehicle or you can program then yourself.
Refer toProgramming spare integrated keyhead transmittersor
Programming spare intelligent access keysfor instructions on how to
program the coded key.
For integrated keyhead transmitter (IKT), the standard SecuriLock
keys without remote entry transmitter functionality can also be
purchased from your authorized dealer if desired.
Note:The SecuriLockpassive 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.
Automatic arming
The vehicle is armed immediately after turning the ignition off.
Automatic disarming
Switching the ignition on with acoded keydisarms the vehicle.
Replacement of integrated keyhead transmitters (IKT) or intelligent
access keys
Note:Your vehicle comes equipped with two integrated keyhead
transmitters (IKTs) or two intelligent access keys.
Theintegrated keyhead transmitter (IKT)functions as both a
programmed ignition key that operates all the locks and starts the
vehicle, as well as a remote keyless entry transmitter. A maximum of
eight coded keys and remote keys can be programmed to your vehicle.
Theintelligent access keyfunctions as both a programmed key that
operates the driver door lock, activates intelligent access with push
button start systems as well as a remote keyless entry transmitter. A
maximum of eight intelligent access keys can be programmed to your
vehicle.
If your programmed transmitters or standard SecuriLockcoded keys
(IKTs only) 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
