Replacing lost transmitters
Take all your vehicle's transmitters
to your dealer if service is required.
If you purchase additional
transmitters (up to four may be
programmed into memory), perform
the following procedure:
To reprogram the transmitters
yourself, place the key in the
ignition and turn from 2 (LOCK) to
3 (OFF) and cycle between 3 (OFF)
and 4(ON) eight times in rapid succession (within 10 seconds) ending in
the ON position. 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) to confirm programming. When
completed, turn the ignition to OFF. The door locks should cycle
(lock/unlock) one last time to confirm completion of programming.
All transmittersmustbe programmed at the same time.

For maximum vehicle performance, keep the following information in
mind when adding accessories or equipment to your vehicle:
²When adding accessories, equipment, passengers and luggage to your
vehicle, do not exceed the total weight capacity of the vehicle or of
the front or rear axle (GVWR or GAWR as indicated on the Safety
compliance certification label). Consult your dealer for specific weight
information.
²The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Canadian Radio
Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) regulate the use of mobile
communications systems - such as two-way radios, telephones and
theft alarms - that are equipped with radio transmitters. Any such
equipment installed in your vehicle should comply with FCC or CRTC
regulations and should be installed only by a qualified service
technician.
²Mobile communications systems may harm the operation of your
vehicle, particularly if they are not properly designed for automotive
use or are not properly installed. When operated, such systems may
cause the engine to stumble or stall or cause the transmission to be
damaged or operate improperly. In addition, such systems may be
damaged or their performance may be affected by operating your
vehicle. (Citizens band [CB] transceivers, garage door openers and
other transmitters with outputs of five watts or less will not ordinarily
affect your vehicle's operation.)
²Ford cannot assume responsibility for any adverse effects or damage
that may result from the use of such equipment.
