KEYS
Integrated Keyhead Transmitters (IKTs) (If equipped)
Your vehicle may be equipped with
two Integrated Keyhead
Transmitters (IKTs). The key blade
of the IKT functions as a
programmed key which starts the
vehicle and unlocks/locks all the
doors. The transmitter of the IKT
operates the remote keyless entry
feature.
Your IKTs are programmed to your
vehicle; using a non-programmed
key will not permit your vehicle to
start. If you lose one or both of your
IKTs, replacements are available
through your authorized dealer.
Standard SecuriLock™ keys without
remote entry transmitter functionality can also be purchased from your
authorized dealer if desired.
To avoid activating the remote entry functions when starting and turning
off your vehicle, refer toRecommended handling of the Integrated
Keyhead Transmitter (IKT)in this section.
Always carry a spare key with you in case of an emergency.

SECURILOCK™ PASSIVE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM
SecuriLock™ passive anti-theft system is an engine immobilization
system. This system is designed to help prevent the engine from being
started unless acoded Integrated Keyhead Transmitter (IKT) or
Intelligent Access Keys 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 two coded Integrated Keyhead Transmitters or
Intelligent Access Keys; additional coded transmitters may be purchased
from your authorized dealer. The authorized dealer can program your
spare transmitters to your vehicle or you can program then yourself.
Refer toProgramming spare Integrated Keyhead Transmitters or
Programming Spare Intelligent Access Keysfor instructions on how to
program the coded key.
For Integrated Keyhead Transmitter (IKT), the Standard SecuriLock™
keys without remote entry transmitter functionality can also be
purchased from your authorized dealer if desired.
Note:The SecuriLock™ passive 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 off, remove all objects on
the key chain away from the coded key and restart the engine.
Note: Do not leave a duplicate coded key in the vehicle. Always
take your keys and lock all doors when leaving the vehicle.
