Intelligent Access (if equipped)
WARNING:Radio waves from the Intelligent Access system
transmitters in the vehicle may affect certain implanted medical
devices such as pacemakers or cardiac defibrillators. People having
such implanted medical devices should ask the medical device
manufacturer or their physician whether the Intelligent Access system
may affect the equipment before coming into close proximity with a
vehicle equipped with Intelligent Access. Failure to do so may result in
interference with the medical device, which could result in serious
injury.
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 the driver door or at the trunk. You can activate the Intelligent
Access feature as long as you have one of your Intelligent Access Keys
within range of the driver door or the trunk.
Activating Intelligent Access at the Driver’s Door:If your IA key is
within 3 feet (1 meter) of the drivers door, you can activate your
Intelligent Access system by pressing any button on the keyless entry
keypad. The drivers door will automatically unlock and the door can be
opened.
(Note:If two stage unlocking is disabled, all doors will unlock when you
press any button on the keyless entry keypad).
Activating Intelligent Access at the Trunk:If your IA key is within
3 feet (1 meter) of the trunk, you can activate your Intelligent Access
system by pressing the exterior trunk release button, hidden under the
trim above the license plate. The trunk will release and open.
Refer to theRemote entry systemin this section for more details on
how to use the lock, unlock, panic, or trunk buttons on the transmitter.
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 pressing any keyless entry keypad button,
the trunk button, 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).
A mechanical key is needed for access if the IA key battery or vehicle
battery is low.

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.
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 Transmitters or
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

Arming the system
When armed, this system will respond if unauthorized entry is
attempted. When unauthorized entry occurs, the system will flash the
turn signal lamps and will sound the horn.
The system is ready to arm whenever the ignition is off. Any of the
following actions will prearm the alarm system:
•Press the
control on the transmitter.
When you press the lock control twice within three seconds on your
transmitter, the horn will chirp once to let you know that all doors, the
hood and the trunk are closed. If any of these are not closed, the horn
will chirp twice to warn you that a door, the hood or the trunk is still
open.
•Press the driver or passenger
power door lock control while the
door is open, then close the door.
•Press and hold the 7•8 and 9•
0 controls on the keyless entry
pad at the same time to lock the

closed).
•If equipped with Intelligent
Access Key, lock the door by
turning the key in the door key
cylinder.
There is a 20 second countdown
when any of the above actions occur
before the vehicle becomes armed.
Each door, the hood or the trunk is
armed individually, and if any are
open, they must be closed for that entry point to enter the 20 second
countdown.
The turn signal lamps will flash once when all doors, the hood or the
trunk are closed indicating the vehicle is locked and entering the

into the backup slot, use the START/STOP button and brake pedal to
start your vehicle as usual. The vehicle should respond normally as long
as the IA key is in the backup slot in the glove box. Once the vehicle is
started, the IA key can be removed from the backup slot, if desired.
Fast Restart Feature:The Fast Restart feature allows you to re-start
your vehicle within 20 seconds of switching the vehicle off, if a valid IA
key is not present when the vehicle is switched off. When you switch
your vehicle off without a IA key in the passenger compartment or trunk,
the message RESTART NOW OR KEY IS NEEDED will be displayed on
the message center. You can re-start the vehicle (by applying the brake
pedal and pressing the START/STOP button) for up to 20 seconds, even
though the IA key is not present. After 20 seconds have expired, you can
no longer start your vehicle without the IA key present inside the
vehicle.
Switching the Vehicle Off when not in Park:It is recommended that
you shift into the Park position before switching your vehicle off. If you
switch your vehicle off with the shifter in any position other than Park,
the message SHIFT TO PARK will be displayed in the message center. If
the vehicle is left in this state, your key in ignition chime will activate
when the driver door is opened, and you may drain your vehicle’s
battery. In order to avoid draining your battery, it is recommended that
you always shift to park before or immediately after switching your
vehicle off.
Absence of the Intelligent Access key:Once the vehicle has started,
the vehicle will remain running until being turned off by the
START/STOP button, even if the IA key is no longer found in the vehicle.
Whenever a door is opened and then closed while the vehicle is running,
the system will search for a IA key inside the vehicle and the message
center will display NO KEY DETECTED if the IA key is no longer
present. This message is a reminder that someone else in the vehicle
may have taken the IA key when exiting the vehicle. If the IA key is no
longer present in the vehicle, you will not be able to re-start your vehicle
outside of the Fast Restart time (seeFast Restart Featureabove). It is
important to be aware of where your IA key is located in the vehicle, to
avoid becoming stranded without a IA key.

Keep the sensors (located on the front and rear bumper/fascia)
free from snow, ice and large accumulations of dirt (do not clean
the sensors with sharp objects). If the sensors are covered, it will
affect the accuracy of the sensing system.
If your vehicle sustains damage to the front or rear
bumper/fascia, leaving it misaligned or bent, the sensing zone may
be altered causing inaccurate measurement of obstacles or false
alarms.
REARVIEW CAMERA SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
The rearview camera system,
