SECURILOCKPASSIVE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM
SecuriLockpassive anti-theft system is an engine immobilization
system. This system is designed to help prevent the engine from being
started unless acoded key programmed to your vehicleis used. The
use of the wrong type of coded key may lead to a“no-start”condition.
Your vehicle comes with three coded keys; additional coded keys may be
purchased from your dealer. The dealer can program your spare keys to
your vehicle or you can program the keys yourself. Refer to the
Programming spare keyssection in this chapter for instructions on how
to program the coded key.
Note: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.

Note:Large metallic objects, electronic devices that are used to
purchase gasoline or similar items, or a second coded key on the same
key chain may cause vehicle starting issues. You need to prevent these
objects from touching the coded key while starting the engine. These
objects will not cause damage to the coded key, but may cause a
momentary issue if they are too close to the key when starting the
engine. If a problem occurs, turn the ignition to the 2 (OFF) position,
remove all objects on the key chain away from the coded key and restart
the engine.
Theft indicator
The theft indicator is located on top of the instrument panel.
•When the ignition is in the 2 (OFF) position, the indicator will flash
once every 2 seconds if the vehicle is locked and the perimeter alarm
is armed.
•When the ignition is in the 4 (RUN) position, the indicator will glow
for 3 seconds to indicate normal system functionality.
If a problem occurs with the SecuriLocksystem, the indicator will flash
rapidly or glow steadily when the ignition is in the 4 (RUN) position. If
this occurs, the vehicle should be taken to an authorized dealer for
service.
Replacement keys
If your keys are lost or stolen and you don’t have an extra coded key,
you will need to have your vehicle towed to a dealership. The key codes
need to be erased from your vehicle and new coded keys will need to be
programmed.
Replacing coded keys can be very costly. Store an extra programmed key
away from the vehicle in a safe place to help prevent any
inconveniences. Please visit an authorized dealer to purchase additional
spare or replacement keys.
Programming spare keys
A maximum of eight keys can be coded to your vehicle. Only
Securilockkeys can be used. To program acoded keyyourself, you
will need two previously programmedcoded keys(keys that already
operate your vehicle’s engine) and the new unprogrammed key(s) readily
accessible for timely implementation of each step in the procedure.
If two previously programmedcoded keysare not available, you must
take your vehicle to an authorized Ford dealer to have the sparecoded
key(s)programmed.

1. Insert the first previously
programmedcoded keyinto the
ignition from 1 (LOCK) to 4 (RUN)
(maintain ignition in the 4 (RUN)
position for at least three seconds,
but no more than ten seconds).
2. Turn the ignition to the 1 (LOCK)
position and remove the firstcoded
keyfrom the ignition.
3. Within ten seconds of turning the ignition to the 1 (LOCK) position,
insert the second previously programmed coded key into the ignition and
turn the ignition from the 1 (LOCK) position to the 4 (RUN) position
(maintain ignition in the 4 (RUN) position for at least three seconds, but
no more than ten seconds).
4. Turn the ignition to the 1 (LOCK) position and remove the second
coded keyfrom the ignition.
5. Within twenty seconds of turning the ignition to the 1 (LOCK)
position, insert the new unprogrammed key (new key/valet key) into the
ignition and turn the ignition from 1 (LOCK) to 4 (RUN) (maintain
ignition in the 4 (RUN) position for at least three seconds). This step
will program your new key to acoded key.
6. To program additional new unprogrammed key(s), wait at least twenty
seconds and then repeat this procedure from Step 1.
If successful, the newcoded key(s)will start the vehicle’s engine and
the theft indicator will flash on and off. You may repeat Steps 1 through
5. If failure repeats, take your vehicle to your authorized dealer in order
to have new spare key(s) programmed.
PERIMETER ALARM SYSTEM
The perimeter anti-theft system will warn you in the event of an
unauthorized entry to your vehicle.
If there is any potential perimeter anti-theft problem with your vehicle,
ensureALL remote entry transmittersare taken to the dealership to
aid in troubleshooting.
Arming the system
When armed, this system will respond if unauthorized entry is
attempted. When unauthorized entry occurs, the system will flash the
turn signal lamps and will sound the horn.
