2010 FORD KUGA window

ARMING THE ALARM
The system is armed as soon as the
vehicle is locked and acts as a deterrent
to unauthorised persons who attempt to
open the doors, bonnet or luggage
compartment, or remove the audio
system.
The alarm sounds for 30 seconds if an
unauthorised person opens a door, the
luggage compartment or the bonnet. The
hazard flasher lights will flash for five
minutes.
Any attempt to start the engine without a
valid key or to remove the audio system
sounds the alarm again.
Automatic arming delay
The 20 seconds arming delay begins
when the bonnet, luggage compartment
and all doors are closed.
Interior sensors
WARNING
This system functions correctly only
if all windows are completely closed.
In addition to this, the sensors
located in the interior lamp unit must not
be covered up. The system should not
be activated if any persons, animals or
other moving objects are inside the
vehicle. This system acts as a deterrent against
unauthorised intrusion by sensing any
movement within the vehicle. Unauthorised entry into the vehicle’s
interior will trigger the alarm in the same
way as the anti-theft system.
The sensors are located in the interior
lamp unit.
All except Britain and Ireland
The interior sensing alarm is armed
together with the double locking system.
Britain and Ireland only
The interior sensing alarm is armed
together with the central locking system.
To deactivate the interior sensors press
the switch next to the driver’s door
handle.
DISARMING THE ALARM
The system can be deactivated at any
time, even when the alarm is sounding,
by unlocking the vehicle from the outside.
The system will be deactivated if:
•
A valid passive key is located within
the detection range.
• The unlock button on the remote
control is pressed.
• A valid passive key is located within
the vehicle interior and you depress
the clutch pedal (manual transmission)
or brake pedal (automatic
transmission).
• You insert the key blade into the key
holder.
The system for the luggage compartment
lid will be deactivated if.

Overriding the anti-trap function
CAUTION
While you close the window for the
third time, the anti-trap function is
disabled. Make sure there are no
obstacles in the way of the closing
window. To override this protection function when
there is a resistance, e.g. in the winter,
proceed as follows:
1. Close the window twice until it
reaches the resistance and let it
reverse.
2. Close the window a third time to the resistance. The anti-trap function is
disabled and you cannot close the
window automatically. The window will
override the resistance and you can
close it fully.
3. If the window does not close after the third attempt, have it checked by an
expert.

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
Outside air
Keep the air intakes forward of the
windscreen free from obstruction (snow,
leaves etc.) to allow the climate control
system to function effectively.
Recirculated air
CAUTION
Prolonged use of recirculated air may
cause the windows to mist up. If the
windows mist up, follow the settings
for defrosting and demisting the
windscreen. The air currently in the passenger
compartment will be recirculated. Outside
air will not enter the vehicle.
Heating
Heating performance depends on the
temperature of the engine coolant.
Air conditioning
Note:The air conditioning operates only
when the temperature is above 4ºC (39ºF).
Note:If you use the air conditioning, the
fuel consumption of your vehicle will be higher.
Air is directed through the evaporator
where it is cooled. Humidity is extracted
from the air to help keep the windows free
of mist. The resulting condensation is
directed to the outside of the vehicle and
it is therefore normal if you see a small
pool of water under your vehicle.
General information on
controlling the interior climate
Fully close all the windows. Warming the interior
Direct the air towards your feet. In cold or
humid weather conditions, direct some
of the air towards the windscreen and the
door windows.
Cooling the interior
Direct the air towards your face.
