INTERIOR LUGGAGE
COMPARTMENT RELEASE
WARNINGS
Keep vehicle doors and luggage
compartment locked and keep
keys and remote transmitters out of
a child’s reach. Unsupervised children
could lock themselves in the trunk and
risk injury. Children should be taught
not to play in vehicles.
Do not leave children, unreliable
adults, or animals unattended in
the vehicle. On hot days, the
temperature in the trunk or vehicle
interior can rise very quickly. Exposure
of people or animals to these high
temperatures for even a short time
can cause death or serious
heat-related injuries, including brain
damage. Small children are
particularly at risk.
Your vehicle is equipped with a
release handle that provides a means
of escape for children and adults if
they become locked inside the
luggage compartment.
Adults should familiarize themselves
with the operation and location of the
release handle.

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 your vehicle.
Prevent these objects from touching
the coded key while starting your
vehicle. Switch the ignition off, move
all objects on the key chain away from
the coded key and restart your vehicle
if a problem occurs.
Note: Do not leave a duplicate coded
key in your vehicle. Always take your
keys and lock all doors when leaving
your vehicle.
SecuriLock®
The system helps prevent your vehicle
from starting unless you use a coded
key programmed to your vehicle.
Using the wrong key may prevent your
vehicle from starting. A message may
appear in the information display.
If you are unable to start your vehicle
with a correctly coded key, a
malfunction has happened. A
message may appear in the
information display. Automatic Arming
Your vehicle arms immediately after
switching the ignition off.
Automatic Disarming
Switching the ignition on with a coded
key disarms your 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. You need to erase the key
codes from your vehicle and program
new coded keys.
Store an extra programmed key away
from your 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

for four intelligent access keys to your
vehicle.
