PASSIVE ANTI-THEFT
SYSTEM
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 coded key
programmed to your vehicle is used.
Using the wrong 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 vehicle is armed immediately
after switching the ignition off.
Automatic Disarming
Switching the ignition on with a coded
key disarms the vehicle.
Replacement Keys
Note:
Your vehicle comes equipped
with two intelligent access keys.
The intelligent access key functions
as a programmed key that operates
the driver door lock and activates the
intelligent access with push button
start system, as well as a remote
control.
If your programmed transmitters are
lost or stolen and you do not 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.
Store an extra programmed key away
from the vehicle in a safe place to help
prevent any inconveniences. See your
authorized dealer to purchase
additional spare or replacement keys.
Programming a Spare Intelligent
Access Key
Note: You can program a maximum
for four intelligent access keys to your
vehicle.

then turn itself off if no malfunctions
are present. However, if after 15
seconds the service engine soon light
blinks eight times, it means that the
vehicle is not ready for I/M testing.
