on the position of the liftgate, provided it meets sufficient resistance. If
the power liftgate encounters an obstacle while closing, the power
liftgate will reverse to full open. Once the obstacle is removed, the power
liftgate can be again closed under power. If the power liftgate encounters
an obstacle while opening, the power liftgate will stop when it
encounters a solid obstacle. Close the liftgate manually and remove the
obstruction. Normal operation can then be resumed.
Make sure the power liftgate is closed to prevent exhaust fumes
from being drawn into the vehicle. If you must drive with the
liftgate open, keep the climate control vents open so that fresh outside

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 key programmed to your vehicleis used. 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.
Anti-theft indicator
The anti-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 SecuriLocksystem 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 SecuriLocksystem, 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.Only acoded keywill
start your vehicle. Spare coded keys may be purchased from an
authorized dealer. An authorized 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 approvedcoded 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 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
SecuriLockkeys 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 authorized dealer 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 first
coded keyfrom the ignition.
3. Within ten seconds of removing the firstcoded key,insert the second
previously programmedcoded keyinto the ignition and turn the ignition
