Unlocking the vehicle
Note:If the vehicle remains locked for
longer than three days, the key free system will enter an energy-saving mode.This is to reduce the discharge of thevehicle battery. When the vehicle isunlocked while in this mode, the reactiontime of the system may be a little longerthan normal. Unlocking the vehicle oncewill deactivate the energy-saving mode. Pull one of the door handles or the
luggage compartment lid handle.
Note:
A valid passive key must be
located within the detection range of that door.
One long flash of the direction indicators
confirms that all the doors, the luggage
compartment lid and the fuel filler flap
have been unlocked and that the alarm
has been disarmed.
Unlocking only the driver's door
If the unlocking function is reprogrammed
so that only the driver’s door is unlocked
( See Programming the remote
control (page 27). ), note the following: If the driver’s door is the first door which
is opened, the other doors and the
luggage compartment lid will remain
locked. All the other doors can be
unlocked from inside the vehicle by using
the unlock button next to the driver’s door
handle. Doors can be unlocked individually
by pulling the interior door handles on
those doors.
If the front passenger door or one of the
rear doors is the first door which is
opened,
allthe doors and the luggage
compartment lid will be unlocked.
Disabled keys

when it is locked will be disabled.
A disabled key cannot be used to turn the
ignition on or start the engine.
In order to use these passive keys again,
they have to be enabled.

the vehicle using a passive key or the
remote control unlocking function.

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
The engine immobiliser is a theft
protection system that prevents someone
from starting the engine with an
incorrectly coded key.
CODED KEYS
Note:Do not shield your keys with metal
objects. This may prevent the receiver from recognising your key as a valid one.
Note:Have all of your remaining keys
erased and recoded if you lose a key. Ask your dealer for further information. Havereplacement keys recoded together withyour existing keys.
If you lose a key, you can obtain a
replacement from your Ford Dealer. If
possible, provide them with the key
number from the tag provided with the
original keys. You can also obtain
additional keys from your Ford Dealer.
ARMING THE ENGINE
IMMOBILISER
The engine immobiliser is armed
automatically a short time after you have
switched the ignition off.
DISARMING THE ENGINE
IMMOBILISER
The engine immobiliser is disarmed
automatically when you switch the ignition
on with a correctly coded key. The indicator in the instrument cluster will
come on for approximately three seconds
and then go out. If the indicator stays on
for one minute or flashes for
approximately one minute and then
repeatedly at irregular intervals, your key
has not been recognised. Remove the
key and try again.
If you are unable to start the engine with
a correctly coded key, this indicates a
malfunction. Have the immobiliser
checked immediately.

Engine immobiliser

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.

The system can be deactivated at any
time, even when the alarm is sounding,
by unlocking the vehicle from the outside.

the detection range.

control is pressed.

the vehicle interior and you depress
the clutch pedal (manual transmission)
