required.
If you purchase
additional transmitters
(up to four may be
programmed), perform
the following procedure:
To reprogram the transmitters, place the key in the
ignition and turn from OFF to ON eight times in
rapid succession (within 10 seconds) ending in ON.
After doors lock/unlock, press any control on all
transmitters (up to four). With each control press of
the transmitters, the door should cycle (lock/unlock)

ignition to OFF. The door locks should cycle (lock/
unlock) one last time to confirm completion of
programming.
All transmitters must be programmed at the same
time.
Replacing the batteries
The transmitter is powered by two coin type
three-volt lithium batteries. Typical operating range
will allow you to be up to 10 meters (33 feet) away
from your vehicle. A decrease in operating range can
be caused by:

The SecuriLockypassive anti-theft system is not
compatible with aftermarket remote start systems.
Use of these systems may result in vehicle starting
problems and a loss of security protection. Large
metallic objects or devices such as the Mobil
Speedpassyon the same key ring as your
SecuriLockykey may cause vehicle starting
problems. These objects and devices cannot damage
the SecuriLockykey, but can cause a momentary
problem if they are too close to the key when
starting the engine. If a problem occurs, turn
ignition off and restart the engine with all other
objects on the key ring held away from the
SecuriLockyignition key.
Spare SecuriLockykeys can be purchased from
your dealership and programmed to your
SecuriLockypassive anti-theft system. Refer to
Programming spare SecuriLockykeysfor more
information.
If one or both of your SecuriLockykeys are lost or
stolen and you want to ensure the lost or stolen key
will not operate your vehicle, bring your vehicle and
all available SecuriLockykeys to your dealership for
reinitialization.
Theft indicator
The theft indicator on the instrument cluster will
operate as follows:
²When the ignition is OFF, the theft indicator will
flash briefly every 2 seconds to indicate the
SecuriLockysystem is protecting your vehicle.
²When the ignition is turned to RUN or START, the
theft indicator will light for 3 seconds and then go
out. If the theft indicator stays on for an extended
period of time or flashes rapidly, have the system
serviced by your dealership or a qualified
technician.

Programming spare SecuriLockYkeys
Spare SecuriLockykeys can be purchased from
your dealership and programmed to your
SecuriLockypassive anti-theft system (up to a total
of 8 keys). Your dealership can program your new
SecuriLockykey(s) to your vehicle or you can do it
yourself using the following simple procedure. To
program a new SecuriLockykey yourself, you will
need two previously programmed SecuriLockykeys
(keys that already operate your vehicle's engine). If
two previously programmed SecuriLockykeys are
not available (one or both of your original keys were
lost or stolen), you must bring your vehicle to your
dealership to have the spare SecuriLockykey(s)
programmed.
Procedure to program spare SecuriLockYkeys
to your vehicle
New SecuriLockykeys must have the correct
mechanical key cut for your vehicle.
Conventional (non-SecuriLocky) keyscannotbe
programmed to your vehicle.
You will need to have two previously programmed
SecuriLockykeys and the new unprogrammed
SecuriLockykey readily accessible for the
procedure. Please read and understand the entire
procedure before you begin.
1. Insert the first previously programmed
SecuriLockykey into the ignition and turn the
ignition from OFF to RUN (maintain ignition in RUN
for at least one second).
2. Turn ignition to OFF and remove the first
SecuriLockykey from the ignition.
3. Within five seconds of turning the ignition to OFF,
insert the second previously programmed
SecuriLockykey into the ignition and turn the
ignition from OFF to RUN (maintain ignition in RUN
for at least one second but no more than 5 seconds).

4. Turn the ignition to OFF and remove the second
SecuriLockykey from the ignition.
5. Within 10 seconds of turning the ignition to OFF,
insert the unprogrammed SecuriLockykey (new
key/valet key) into the ignition and turn the ignition
from OFF to RUN (maintain ignition in RUN for at
least one second). This step will program your new
SecuriLockykey.
6. To program additional SecuriLockykey(s), repeat
this procedure from step 1.
If the programming procedure was successful, the
new SecuriLockykey(s) will start the vehicle's
engine. The theft indicator (located on the
instrument cluster) will light for three seconds and
then go out.
If the programming procedure was not successful,
the new SecuriLockykey(s) will not operate the
vehicle's engine. The theft indicator will flash on and
off. Wait at least one minute and then repeat the
procedure from step 1. If failure repeats, bring your
vehicle to your dealership to have the spare
SecuriLockykey(s) programmed.

Safety belt maintenance
Inspect the safety belt systems periodically to make
sure they work properly and are not damaged.
Inspect the safety belts to make sure there are no
nicks, wears or cuts, replacing if necessary. All
safety belt assemblies, including retractors, buckles,
front seat belt buckle assemblies, buckle support
assemblies (slide bar-if equipped), shoulder belt
height adjusters (if equipped), child safety seat
tether bracket assemblies (if equipped), and
attaching hardware, should be inspected after a
collision. Ford recommends that all safety belt
assemblies used in vehicles involved in a collision be
replaced. However, if the collision was minor and a
qualified technician finds that the belts do not show
damage and continue to operate properly, they do
not need to be replaced. Safety belt assemblies not
in use during a collision should also be inspected
and replaced if either damage or improper operation
is noted.

A difficulty with the system is indicated by one or
more of the following:
²The readiness light
will either flash or
stay lit.
²The readiness light
will not illuminate immediately after ignition is
turned on.
²A series of five beeps will be heard. The tone
pattern will repeat periodically until the problem
and light are repaired.
If any of these things happen, even intermittently,
have the SRS serviced at your dealership or by a
qualified technician immediately. Unless serviced,
the system may not function properly in the event of
a collision.
Disposal of air bags and air bag equipped
vehicles (including pretensioners)
For disposal of air bags or air bag equipped vehicles,
see your local dealership or qualified technician. Air
bags MUST BE disposed of by qualified personnel.
SAFETY RESTRAINTS FOR CHILDREN
See the following sections for directions on how to
properly use safety restraints for children. Also see
Air Bag Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)in
this chapter for special instructions about using air
bags.
Important child restraint precautions
You are required by law to use safety restraints for
children in the U.S. and Canada. If small children
ride in your vehicle (generally children who are four
years old or younger and who weigh 18 kg [40 lbs]
or less), you must put them in safety seats made
especially for children. Check your local and state or
provincial laws for specific requirements regarding
the safety of children in your vehicle.
