PASSIVE ANTI-THEFT
SYSTEM - VEHICLES WITH:
PASSIVE ANTI-THEFT
SYSTEM (PATS)
Note:
The 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: Metallic objects, electronic devices
or a second coded key on the same key
chain may cause vehicle starting problems
if they are too close to the key when starting
the engine. Prevent these objects from
touching the coded key while starting the
engine. Switch the ignition off, move all
objects on the key chain away from the
coded key and restart the engine if a
problem occurs.
Note: Do not leave a duplicate coded key
in the vehicle. Always take your keys and
lock all doors when leaving the vehicle.
SecuriLock®
The system is an engine immobilization
system. It is designed to help prevent the
engine from being started unless a
correctly coded key for your vehicle is used.
Using an incorrectly coded key may
prevent the engine from starting. A
message may appear in the information
display.
If you are unable to start the engine with a
correctly coded key, a malfunction has
happened and a message may appear in
the information display.
Automatic Arming
The engine immobilization system arms
immediately after you switch the ignition
off. Automatic Disarming
Switching the ignition on with a correctly
coded key disarms the engine
immobilization system.
Replacement Keys
The integrated keyhead transmitter
functions as a programmed ignition key
that operates all the locks and starts your
vehicle, as well as a remote control.
If your keys are lost or stolen and you do
not have a spare correctly coded key, you
will need to have your vehicle towed to an
authorized dealer. You need to erase the
coded keys from your vehicle and program
new coded keys.
Store an extra correctly coded key away
from the vehicle in a safe place to help
prevent any inconveniences. See an
authorized dealer to purchase additional
spare or replacement keys.
Programming a Spare Integrated
Keyhead Transmitter
You can program your own integrated
keyhead transmitter or standard
SecuriLock coded keys to your vehicle. This
procedure will program both the engine
immobilizer keycode and the remote entry
portion of the remote control to your
vehicle
Only use integrated keyhead transmitters
or standard SecuriLock keys.
You must have two previously
programmed correctly coded keys and the
new unprogrammed key readily accessible.
See an authorized dealer to have the spare
key programmed if two previously
programmed correctly coded keys are not
available.
Read and understand the entire procedure
before you begin.
1.
Insert the first previously programmed
correctly coded key into the ignition.

WINDSHIELD WIPERS
Single wipe.
A
Intermittent wipe.
B
Normal wipe.
C
High-speed wipe.
D
Note: Fully defrost the windshield before
you switch the windshield wipers on.
Note: Make sure that you switch the
windshield wipers off before entering a car
wash.
Note: If streaks or smears appear on the
windshield, clean the windshield and the
wiper blades. See Checking the Wiper
Blades (page 294). If that does not resolve
the issue, install new wiper blades. See
Changing the Front Wiper Blades
(page
295).
Note: Do not operate the wipers on a dry
windshield. This may scratch the glass or
damage the wiper blades. Always use the
windshield washers before wiping a dry
windshield. Intermittent Wipe
Short wipe interval.
A
Intermittent wipe.
B
Long wipe interval.
C
Use the rotary control to adjust the
intermittent wipe interval.
Note: When your vehicle speed increases,
the interval between intermittent wipes may
decrease.
AUTOWIPERS
Autowipers uses a rain sensor in the area
around the interior mirror. The wipers
operate when the rain sensor detects
water on the windshield in front of it. The
rain sensor continues to monitor the
amount of water and adjusts the speed of
the wipers.
Note: The wipers remain in a slightly raised
position during operation and only return to
the park position a short time after the rain
sensor detects no water on the windshield.
You can switch autowipers on or off in the
information display.
Note: If you switch autowipers off in the
information display, the windshield wipers
operate in intermittent mode.

High sensitivity.
A
Autowipers on.
B
Low sensitivity.
C
Move the wiper lever upward to the first
position to switch autowipers on.
Use the rotary control to adjust the
sensitivity of the autowipers. When you
select low sensitivity, the wipers operate
when the sensor detects a large amount
of water on the windshield. When you
select high sensitivity, the wipers operate
when the sensor detects a small amount
of water on the windshield.
Note: Keep the outside of the windshield
clean. The rain sensor is very sensitive and
the wipers may operate if dirt, mist or
insects hit the windshield. If you leave autowipers on, it may not
operate when you switch the ignition on
during freezing temperatures. This is
because the system has deactivated the
rain sensor to prevent damage to the
windshield wipers. Defrost the windshield
before reactivating the rain sensor. You
can reactivate the rain sensor by moving
the rotary control or switching autowipers
off and on.
Note:
Fully defrost the windshield before
you switch the windshield wipers on.
Note: Make sure that you switch the
windshield wipers off before entering a car
wash.
Wet or winter weather conditions could
cause unexpected wiping or smearing.
To keep the windshield clear:
• Lower the sensitivity of the autowipers
to reduce the amount of smearing on
the windshield.
• Switch autowipers off.
Note: If streaks or smears appear on the
windshield, clean the windshield and the
wiper blades. See Checking the Wiper
Blades (page 294). If that does not resolve
the issue, install new wiper blades. See
Changing the Front Wiper Blades
(page

AUTOMATIC HIGH BEAM
CONTROL
WARNING: The system does not
relieve you of your responsibility to drive
with due care and attention. You may
need to override the system if it does not
turn the high beams on or off. WARNING:
You may need to
override the system when approaching
other road users. WARNING:
You may need to
override the system during inclement
weather. WARNING:
Do not use the system
in poor visibility, for example fog, heavy
rain, spray or snow. WARNING:
The system may not
switch the high beams off if the lights of
oncoming vehicles are hidden by
obstacles, for example guard rails. WARNING: Inspect and replace the
windshield wiper blades regularly to
make sure the camera sensor has a clear
view. The windshield wiper blades must
be the correct length. The system is designed to turn the high
beams on if all of the following occur:
•
You switched the system on in the
information display.
• You set the lighting control to the
autolamps position.
• The ambient light level is low enough
that high beams are required.
• There is no traffic in front of your
vehicle.

approximately
32 mph (51 km/h).
The system is designed to turn the high
beams off if any of the following occur:
• You switch the system off in the
information display.
• You set the lighting control to any
position except autolamps.
• The ambient light level is high enough
that high beams are not required.
• The system detects an approaching
vehicle's headlamps or rear lamps.

or fog.
• The system detects street lighting.
• The camera has reduced visibility.
• Your vehicle speed falls below
approximately
27 mph (44 km/h).
Note: High beam reactivation may be
delayed in certain curvy road situations.
Note: Using much larger tires or equipping
vehicle accessories such as snowplows can
modify your vehicle's ride height and
degrade automatic high beam control
performance.
