unlocking by pressing and holding both the

and

buttons

simultaneously on the remote entry transmitter for approximately four
seconds and release. The park lamps will flash twice to indicate that the
vehicle has switched to one step unlocking. Repeat the procedure to
switch back to two-step unlocking.

Locking the doors

1. Press

and release to lock all the doors. If all doors are closed the

parking lamps illuminate.

2. Press

and release again within three seconds to confirm that all

the doors are closed and locked. Note: The doors will lock again, the
turn lamps will flash and the horn will chirp once. If any door is ajar the
lamps will not flash and the horn will chirp twice.

Car finder

twice within three seconds. The horn will chirp and the turn

lamps will flash. It is recommended that this method be used to locate
your vehicle, rather than using the panic alarm.

To replace the battery:

1. Twist a thin coin between the two
halves of the remote entry
transmitter near the key ring. DO
NOT TAKE THE RUBBER COVER
AND CIRCUIT BOARD OFF THE
FRONT HOUSING OF THE
REMOTE ENTRY TRANSMITTER.

2. Do not wipe off any grease on the
battery terminals on the back
surface of the circuit board.

3. Remove the old battery.

Note: Please refer to local
regulations when disposing of
transmitter batteries.

4. Insert the new battery. Refer to
the diagram inside the remote entry
transmitter for the correct
orientation of the battery. Press the battery down to ensure that the
battery is fully seated in the battery housing cavity.

5. Snap the two halves back together.

Note: Replacement of the battery will not cause the remote transmitter
to become deprogrammed from your vehicle. The remote transmitter
should operate normally after battery replacement.

Replacing lost remote entry transmitters

If you would like to have your remote entry transmitter reprogrammed
because you lost one, or would like to buy additional remote entry
transmitters, you can either reprogram them yourself, or take all
remote entry transmitters to your authorized dealer for
reprogramming.

How to reprogram your remote entry transmitters

You must have all remote entry transmitters (maximum of four)
available before beginning this procedure. If all remote entry transmitters
are not present during programming procedure, the ones missing during
programming will no longer operate the vehicle.

SECURILOCK

姞 PASSIVE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)

SecuriLock

威 passive anti-theft system is an engine immobilization

system. This system is designed to help prevent the engine from being
started unless a coded key programmed to your vehicle is used. The
use of the wrong type of coded key may lead to a “no-start” condition.

Your vehicle comes with two coded keys; additional coded keys may be
purchased from your authorized dealer. The authorized dealer can
program your spare keys to your vehicle or you can program the keys
yourself. Refer to Programming spare keys for instructions on how to
program the coded key.

Note: The SecuriLock

威 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.

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
engine. If a problem occurs, turn the ignition off, remove all objects on
the key chain away from the coded key and restart the engine.

Note: Do not leave a duplicate coded key in the vehicle. Always
take your keys and lock all doors when leaving the vehicle.
