Heated outside mirrors
Both mirrors are heated
automatically to remove ice, mist
and fog when the rear window
defrost is activated.
Do not remove ice from the
mirrors with a scraper or
attempt to readjust the mirror

These actions could cause
damage to the glass and mirrors.

When programming your HomeLinktWireless Control System to
a garage door or gate, be sure that people and objects are out of
the way to prevent potential harm or damage.
Do not use the HomeLinktWireless Control System with any garage
door opener that lacks safety stop and reverse features as required by
U.S. federal safety standards (this includes any garage door opener
model manufactured before April 1, 1982). A garage door which cannot
detect an object, signaling the door to stop and reverse, does not meet
current U.S. federal safety standards. For more information, contact
HomeLinktat:www.homelink.comor1±800±355±3515.
Retain the original transmitter for use in other vehicles as well as for
future programming procedures (i.e. new HomeLinktequipped vehicle
purchase). It is also suggested that upon the sale of the vehicle, the
programmed Homelinktbuttons be erased for security purposes, refer to
Programmingin this section.
Programming
Do not program HomeLinktwith the vehicle parked in the garage.
Note:Some vehicles may require the ignition switch to be turned to the
second (or ªACCº) position for programming and/or operation of the
HomeLinkt. It is also recommended that a new battery be placed in the
hand-held transmitter of the device being programmed to HomeLinktfor
quicker training and accurate transmission of the radio-frequency signal.
1. Press and hold the two outside
buttons releasing only when the red
light begins to flash after 20
seconds.Do notrepeat step one to
program additional hand-held
transmitters to the remaining two
HomeLinktbuttons. This will erase
previously programmed hand-held
transmitter signals into HomeLinkt.
2. Position the end of your
hand-held transmitter 2±8 cm (1±3
inches) away from the HomeLinktbutton you wish to program (located
on your overhead console) while keeping the red light in view.

3. Simultaneously press and hold
both the HomeLinktand hand-held
transmitter button.Do not release
the buttons until step 4 has been
completed.
Some entry gates and garage door
openers may require you to replace
step 3 with procedures noted in the
ªGate Operator and Canadian
Programmingº section for Canadian
residents.
4. The red light will flash slowly and then rapidly. Release both buttons
when the red light flashes rapidly. (The rapid flashing light indicates
acceptance of the hand-held transmitters' radio frequency signals.)
5. Press and hold the just-trained HomeLinktbutton and observe the red
light. If the light is a constant red, programming is complete and your
device should activate when the HomeLinktbutton is pressed and
released.Note:To program the remaining two HomeLinktbuttons,
begin with step 2 in the ªProgrammingº section Ðdo notrepeat step 1.
Note:If the red light blinks rapidly for two seconds and then turns to a
continuous red, proceed with steps 6 through 8 to complete
programming of a rolling code equipped device.
6. At the garage door opener receiver (motor-head unit) in the garage,
locate the ªlearnº or ªsmartº button (usually near where the hanging
antenna wire is attached to the unit).
7. Press and release the ªlearnº or ªsmartº button. (The name and color
of the button may vary by manufacturer.)
Note:There are 30 seconds in which to initiate step eight.
8. Return to the vehicle and firmly press, hold for two seconds and
release the HomeLinktbutton. Repeat the press/hold/release sequence
again, and, depending on the brand of the garage door opener (or other
rolling code equipped device), repeat this sequence a third time to
complete the programming.
HomeLinktshould now activate your rolling code equipped device. To
program additional HomeLinktbuttons begin with step 2 in the
ªProgrammingº section. For questions or comments, please contact
HomeLink atwww.homelink.comor1±800±355±3515.

Hitches
Do not use hitches that clamp onto the vehicle bumper; use a
load-carrying hitch. You must distribute the load in your trailer so that
10±15% of the total weight of the trailer is on the tongue, not to exceed
the maximum tongue loads as stated:
²Class II receiver: 159 kg (350 lbs.)
²Class III/IV receiver: 227 kg (500 lbs.) (weight-carrying)/331 kg (730
lbs.) (weight-distributing)
Safety chains
Always connect the trailer's safety chains to the frame or hook retainers
of the vehicle hitch. To connect the trailer's safety chains, cross the
chains under the trailer tongue and allow slack for turning corners.
If you use a rental trailer, follow the instructions that the rental agency
gives to you.
Do not attach safety chains to the bumper.
Trailer brakes
Electric brakes and manual, automatic or surge-type trailer brakes are
safe if installed properly and adjusted to the manufacturer's
specifications. The trailer brakes must meet local and Federal
regulations.
Do not connect a trailer's hydraulic brake system directly to your
vehicle's brake system. Your vehicle may not have enough
braking power and your chances of having a collision greatly increase.
The braking system of the tow vehicle is rated for operation at the
GVWR not GCWR.
Trailer lamps
Trailer lamps are required on most towed vehicles. Make sure all running
lights, brake lights, turn signals and hazard lights are working. See your
dealer or trailer rental agency for proper instructions and equipment for
hooking up trailer lamps.
Never connect any trailer lighting to the vehicle's taillamp
circuits, because it may damage the electrical system resulting in
fire. Contact your local Ford dealership for assistance in proper trailer
tow wiring installation. Additional electrical equipment may be
required.
