Security

Automatic Disarming

PASSIVE ANTI-THEFT

SYSTEM

Principle of Operation

The system prevents someone from

starting the engine with an incorrectly

coded key.

Note: The system is not compatible with

non-Ford aftermarket remote start systems.

Use of these systems may result in engine

starting problems and a loss of security

protection

When you switch the ignition on, the engine

immobilizer will disarm automatically if a

correctly coded key is used. If you are

unable to start the engine with a correctly

coded key, have your vehicle checked by

an Authorized Dealer.

Replacement Keys

Note: Your vehicle comes equipped with

two remote controls with a folding key blade

or two intelligent access keys.

The remote controls with a folding key

blade functions as a programmed ignition

key that operates all the locks and starts

the vehicle, as well as a remote control.

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 or

standard SecuriLock® coded keys 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

the vehicle in a safe place to help prevent

any inconveniences. See your authorized

dealer to purchase additional spare or

replacement keys. Have replacement keys

coded together with recoding your

remaining keys.

Note: Have all of your remaining keys

erased and recoded if you lose a key. Have

replacement keys coded together with

recoding your remaining keys. See an

authorized dealer for further information.

Note: Do not shield your keys with metal

objects. This may prevent the receiver from

recognizing a coded key.

Note: Metallic objects, electronic devices

or a second coded key on the same key

chain may result in vehicle starting

problems, especially if they are too close to

the key when starting your vehicle. Prevent

these objects from touching the coded key

when 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 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

When you switch the ignition off the engine

immobilizer will arm automatically after a

short time.
