2006 FORD TAURUS door lock

Arming the system
When armed, this system will respond if unauthorized entry is
attempted. When unauthorized entry occurs, the system will flash the
headlamps and/or parking lamps and will sound the horn.
The system is ready to arm whenever key is removed from the ignition.
Either of the following actions will prearm the alarm system:
•Press the
control on the remote entry transmitter.
•Press the 7•8 and the 9•0 on the keyless entry keypad (if
equipped) at the same time.
•
Open a door and press the power door lock control to lock all the doors.
Note:The hood and each door arm individually, and if any of them are
open, they must be closed in order to be armed.
When you press the
control on the remote entry transmitter twice
within three seconds:
•
the horn will chirp once to indicate the hood and each door are closed.
•the horn will chirp twice to indicate that either the hood or a door is
still open.
Disarming the system
You can disarm the system by any of the following actions:
•Unlock the doors by pressing the
control on your remote entry
transmitter.
•Unlock the doors by using the keyless entry pad.
•Unlock the doors with a key. Turn the key full travel (toward the front
of the vehicle) to ensure the alarm disarms.
•Turn the ignition to the 4 (ON) position.
•Press the
control on the remote entry transmitter. This will only
shut the horn off when the alarm is sounding; the alarm system will
still be armed.
Triggering the anti-theft system
The armed system will be triggered if:
•Any door or the hood is opened without using the key or the remote
entry transmitter.
•The trunk key cylinder is forced.
