AUTOMATIC DIMMING REAR VIEW MIRRORS (IF EQUIPPED)
Your vehicle is equipped with an inside rear view mirror with an
auto-dimming function. The electronic day/night mirror will change from
the normal state to the non-glare state when bright lights (glare) reach
the inside rear view mirror. When the inside rear view mirror detects
bright light from in front of or behind the vehicle, the inside rear view
mirror will automatically adjust (darken) to minimize glare.
Do not block the sensor on the backside of the inside rear view mirror
since this may impair proper system performance.
Press the control to turn the mirror
OFF or AUTO.
The mirror will automatically return
to the normal state whenever the
vehicle is placed in R
(Reverse)(when the mirror is on) to ensure a bright clear view when
backing up.
ILLUMINATED VISOR MIRROR (IF EQUIPPED)
To turn on the visor mirror lamps,
lift the mirror cover open.

HOMELINKUNIVERSAL TRANSCEIVER (IF EQUIPPED)
The HomeLinkUniversal Transceiver, located on the driver’s visor,
provides a convenient way to replace up to three hand-held transmitters
with a single built-in device. This feature will learn the radio frequency
codes of most current transmitters to operate garage doors, entry gates,
security systems, entry door locks, and home or office lighting.
When programming your HomeLinkUniversal Transceiver, to a
garage door or gate be sure that people and objects are out of
the way to prevent potential harm or damage.
Do not use the HomeLinkUniversal Transceiver with any garage door
opener that lacks safety stop and reverse features as required by U.S.
federal safety standards (this includes any garage door opener model
manufactured before April 1, 1982). A garage door which cannot detect
an object, signaling the door to stop and reverse, does not meet current
U.S. federal safety standards. For more information on this matter, call
toll-free: 1–800–355–3515 or on the Internet atHomeLink.jci.com.
Programming
Do not program the HomeLinkUniversal Transceiver with the
vehicle parked in the garage.
1. Prepare for programming the
HomeLinkUniversal Transceiver by
erasing the three factory default
codes by holding down the two
outside buttons until the red light
begins to flash after 20 seconds.
Release both buttons.
2. Hold the end of your hand-held
transmitter 5–14 cm (2–5 inches)
away from the HomeLinkUniversal
Transceiver surface (located on your visor) while keeping the red light in
view.

3. Using both hands simultaneously
press and hold the hand-held
transmitter button and the desired
HomeLinkbutton. Do not release
the buttons until step 4 has been
completed.
Some entry gates and garage door
openers may require you to replace
step 3 with the procedure in the“Canadian Programing”section.
4. The red light will flash slowly and then rapidly. Release both buttons
when the red light flashes rapidly.
5. Follow steps 2 through 4 to program the remaining two buttons.
If you do not successfully program the HomeLinkUniversal Transceiver
after repeated attempts, refer toRolling code programingwhich
follows, or call toll-free customer assistance: 1–800–355–3515 or on the
Internet atHomeLink.jci.com.
Canadian Programming
During programming, your hand-held transmitter may automatically stop
transmitting after two seconds which may not be long enough to
program the HomeLinkUniversal Transceiver.
To program your hand-held
transmitters:
•continue to hold the button on
the HomeLinkUniversal
Transceiver.
•press and re-press the hand-held
transmitter button every two
seconds until the red light changes from a slow to a fast flash.

Operating the HomeLinkUniversal Transceiver
Once programmed, the HomeLink
Universal Transceiver can be used in
place of hand-held transmitters. To
operate, simply press and release
the appropriate HomeLinkbutton
(the red light will illuminate,
indicating the signal is being
transmitted).
Rolling code programming
Rolling code garage door openers (or other rolling code devices) which
are“code protected”and manufactured after 1996, may be determined
by the following:
•Reference the device owner’s manual for verification
•The hand-held transmitter appears to program the HomeLink
Universal Transceiver but does not activate the device.
•Press and hold the trained HomeLinkbutton. The device has the
rolling code feature if the indicator light flashes rapidly and then turns
solid after two seconds.
After completing the“Programming”functions, follow these steps to
train a garage door opener with the rolling code feature:
1. Locate thetraining buttonon the garage door motor head unit.
Refer to the garage door opener manual or call 1–800–355–3515 or on
the Internet atHomeLink.jci.com.if there is difficulty locating the
training button.
2. Press the training button on the garage door motor head unit (which
will activate the“training” light).

3. Press and release the
programmed HomeLinkbutton.
Press and release the HomeLink
button asecond timeto complete
the training process. (Some garage
door openers may require this
procedure to be done a third time
to complete the training).
The 2nd or 3rd press from step 3 will activate the door. The HomeLink
Universal Transceiver has now been trained to the receiver. The
remaining two buttons may now be programmed if this has not
previously been done.
Erasing HomeLinkbuttons
Individual buttons cannot be erased,
however, to erase the three
programmed buttons:
1. Hold down the two outside
buttons until the red light begins to
flash after 20 seconds.
2. Release both buttons.
Reprogramming a single HomeLinkbutton
To program a device to HomeLinkusing a HomeLinkbutton previously
trained, follow these steps:
1. Press and hold the desired HomeLinkbutton.Do NOTrelease until
step 4has been completed.
2. When the indicator light begins to flash slowly (after 20 seconds),
position the hand-held transmitter 5–14 cm (2 to 5 inches) away from
the HomeLinksurface.
3. Press and hold the hand-held transmitter button.
4. The HomeLinkindicator light will flash, first slowly and then rapidly.
When the indicator light begins to flash rapidly, release both buttons.
The previous device has now been erased and the new device can be
activated by pushing the HomeLinkbutton that has just been
programmed.

SECURILOCK
PASSIVE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM
SecuriLockpassive anti-theft system is an engine immobilization
system. This system prevents the engine from being started unless a
coded 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.
Automatic arming
The vehicle is armed immediately
after switching the ignition to the 3
(OFF) position. The
THEFTlight in
the instrument cluster will flash
every two seconds when the vehicle
is armed.
Automatic disarming
Switching the ignition to the 4 (ON) position with acoded keydisarms
the vehicle. The
THEFTlight will illuminate for three seconds and then
go out. If theTHEFTlight stays on for an extended period of time or
flashes rapidly, have the system serviced by your dealership or a
qualified technician.
Key information
Your vehicle is supplied withtwo
coded keys.Only acoded keywill
start your vehicle. Spare coded keys
can be purchased from your
dealership. Your dealership can

Programming remote transmitters
It is necessary to haveall(maximum of four—original and/or new) of
your remote transmitters available prior to beginning this procedure.
To program 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

The doors will lock/unlock to confirm that each remote transmitter has
been programmed.
•When you have completed programming the remote transmitters, turn
the ignition to 3 (OFF). Again the doors will lock/unlock to confirm
programming has been completed.
