The SecuriLockypassive 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. Large
metallic objects, electronic devices on
the key chain that can be used to
purchase gasoline or similar items, or
a second key on the same key ring as
the PATS ignition key may cause
vehicle starting issues. If present, you
need to keep these objects from
touching the PATS ignition key while
starting the engine. These objects and
devices cannot damage the PATS ignition key, but can cause a momentary
issue if they are too close to the key during engine start. If a problem
occurs, turn ignition OFF and restart the engine with all other objects on the
key ring held away from the ignition key. Check to make sure the encoded
ignition key is an approved Ford encoded ignition key.
If your keys are lost or stolen you
will need to do the following:
²Use your spare key to start the
vehicle. or
²Have your vehicle towed to a
dealership or locksmith. The key
codes will need to be erased from
your vehicle and new key codes will need to be re-coded.
Replacing coded keys can be very costly and you may want to store an
extra programmed key away from the vehicle in a safe place to prevent
an unforeseen inconvenience.
The correct PATS key must be used for your vehicle. The use of the
wrong type of PATS key may lead to a ªNO-STARTº condition. Refer to
the Rotunda Key Application Matrix for the correct PATS key type for
your particular vehicle make and model year. If a key Application Matrix
is not available, call 1±800±ROTUNDA (1±800±768±8632) (press 2) to
order a Key Application Matrix.
If an unprogrammed key is used in the ignition it will cause a
ªNO STARTºcondition.
