SECURILOCKPASSIVE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM
SecuriLock
passive anti-theft system is an engine immobilization
system. This system is designed to help prevent the engine from being
started unless acoded key programmed to your vehicleis used. The
SecuriLock
passive 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.
Theft indicator
The theft indicator is located on top of the instrument panel.
•When the ignition is in the 3 (OFF) position, the indicator will flash
once every 2 seconds to indicate the SecuriLock
system is
functioning as a theft deterrent.
•When the ignition is in the 4 (ON) position, the indicator will glow for
3 seconds to indicate normal system functionality.
If a problem occurs with the SecuriLock
system, the indicator will flash
rapidly or glow steadily when the ignition is in the 4 (ON) position. If this
occurs, the vehicle should be taken to an authorized dealer for service.
Key information
Your vehicle is supplied withtwo coded keys (or three keys, if the
valet feature is available).Only acoded keywill start your vehicle.
Spare coded keys may be purchased from an authorized Ford dealer. An
authorized Ford dealer can also program yourcoded key,or you can do
it yourself. Refer toProgramming spare keysin this chapter.
The following items may prevent the vehicle from starting:
•Large metallic objects.
•Electronic devices on the key chain that can be used to purchase
gasoline or similar items.
•A second key on the same key ring as thecoded key.
If any of these items are present, you need to prevent these objects from
touching thecoded keywhile starting the engine. These objects cannot
damage thecoded key,but may cause a momentary “no start” condition
if they are too close to the key when starting the engine. If a problem
occurs, turn the ignition to the 2 (OFF) position and restart the engine
with all other objects on the key ring held away from the ignition key.
Check to make sure thecoded keyis an approved Fordcoded key.

If your keys are lost or stolen, you will need to do the following:
•Use your spare key to start the vehicle, or
•Have your vehicle towed to an authorized Ford dealer or a locksmith.
The key codes will need to be erased from your vehicle and new
codes will need to be re-coded.
Replacing coded keys can be very costly and you may want to store an
extra programmed key away from the vehicle in a safe place to prevent
an unforeseen inconvenience.
The correctcoded keymust be used for your vehicle. The use of the
wrongcoded keymay lead to a “no start” condition.
If an unprogrammed key is used in the ignition, it will cause a
“no start” condition.
Programming spare keys
A maximum of eight keys can be coded to your vehicle. Only
SecuriLock
keys can be used. To program acoded keyyourself, you
will need two previously programmedcoded keys(keys that already
operate your vehicle’s engine) and the new unprogrammed key(s) readily
accessible for timely implementation of each step in the procedure.
If two previously programmed coded keys are not available, you must
bring your vehicle to your dealership to have the spare coded key(s)
programmed.
Please read and understand the entire procedure before you begin.
1. Insert the first previously
programmedcoded keyinto the
ignition and turn the ignition from
the 3 (OFF) position to the 4 (ON)
position [maintain ignition in 4 (ON)
for at least three seconds, but no
more than ten seconds].
2. Turn ignition from the 4 (ON)
position back to the 3 (OFF)
position in order to remove the firstcoded keyfrom the ignition.
3. Within ten seconds of removing the firstcoded key,insert the second
previously programmedcoded keyinto the ignition and turn the ignition
from the 3 (OFF) position to the 4 (ON) position [maintain ignition in
the 4 (ON) position for at least three seconds but no more than ten
seconds].
4. Turn the ignition from the 4 (ON) position back to the 3 (OFF)
position in order to remove the secondcoded keyfrom the ignition.

5. Within 10 seconds of removing the secondcoded key,insert the new
unprogrammed key (new key/valet key) into the ignition and turn the
ignition from the 3 (OFF) position to the 4 (ON) position [maintain
ignition in the 4 (ON) position for at least three seconds, but no more
than ten seconds]. This step will program your new key to a coded key.
6. To program additional new unprogrammed key(s), repeat this
procedure from step 1.
If successful, the new coded key(s) will start the vehicle’s engine and the
theft indicator will illuminate for three seconds and then go out.
If not successful, the new coded key(s) will not start the vehicle’s engine
and the theft indicator will flash on and off and you may repeat Steps 1
through 5. If failure repeats, bring your vehicle to your dealership to
have the new spare key(s) programmed.
PERIMETER ALARM SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
The perimeter anti-theft system will warn you in the event of an
unauthorized entry to your vehicle.
If there is any potential perimeter anti-theft problem with your vehicle,
ensureALL remote entry transmittersare taken to the dealership to
aid in troubleshooting.
Arming the system
When armed, this system will help protect your vehicle from
unauthorized entry. When unauthorized entry occurs, the system will
flash the turn signal lamps and side repeaters and honk the horn.
The system is ready to arm whenever the key is removed from the
ignition. Any of the following actions will prearm the alarm system:
•Locking the vehicle using the remote entry transmitter.
•Locking the vehicle using the keyless entry keypad.
•Pressing the interior power door lock control while the door is open.
Twenty seconds after one of the above events occurs, any door/hood that
is closed is armed.
Any door/hood that is still open is prearmed and waiting for the
door/hood to be closed.
Once that input is closed, the input will arm in 20 seconds and the
exterior lamps may flash.
Disarming the system
You can disarm the system by any of the following actions:
•Unlock the vehicle with the remote keyless transmitter.

programmed to a memory position.
To program the memory feature to a remote entry transmitter and for

that cargo or any objects are not trapped underneath the
seatback. After returning the seatback to its original position, pull on
the seatback to ensure that it has fully latched. An unlatched seat may
become dangerous in the event of a sudden stop or collision.
Stowing the third row seat

center lap/shoulder belt, slip the
guide off the belt and stow the
guide in the pocket on the back of
the seat.
2. If you plan to carry very large
objects or items that might damage
the center lap/shoulder belt, detach
the belt from the seat. Use a key or

STARTING
Positions of the ignition
1. ACCESSORY, allows the electrical
accessories such as the radio to
operate while the engine is not
running.
2. LOCK, locks the steering wheel,
automatic transmission gearshift
lever and allows key removal.
3. OFF, shuts off the engine and all
accessories without locking the
steering wheel. This position also allows the automatic transmission shift
lever to be moved from the P (Park) position without the brake pedal
being depressed.
When the key is in the ignition and in the OFF position, the
automatic transmission shift lever can be moved from the P
(Park) position without the brake pedal depressed. To avoid unwanted
vehicle movement, always set the parking brake.
4. ON, all electrical circuits operational. Warning lights illuminated. Key
position when driving.
5. START, cranks the engine. Release the key as soon as the engine
starts.
Preparing to start your vehicle
Engine starting is controlled by the powertrain control system. This
system meets all Canadian Interference-Causing Equipment standard
requirements regulating the impulse electrical field strength of radio
noise.
When starting a fuel-injected engine, avoid pressing the accelerator
before or during starting. Only use the accelerator when you have
difficulty starting the engine. For more information on starting the
vehicle, refer toStarting the enginein this chapter.
Extended idling at high engine speeds can produce very high
temperatures in the engine and exhaust system, creating the risk
of fire or other damage.
