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 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.
The message center will display: NO KEY DETECTED.
If you are unable to start the engine with a correctly coded key, this
indicates a malfunction. The message center will display: STARTING
SYSTEM MALFUNCTION.
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 transmittersor
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 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 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.
Automatic arming
The vehicle is armed immediately after turning the ignition off.
Automatic disarming
Switching the ignition on with acoded keydisarms the vehicle.
Replacement of integrated keyhead transmitters (IKT) or intelligent
access keys
Note:Your vehicle comes equipped with two integrated keyhead
transmitters (IKTs) or two intelligent access keys.
Theintegrated keyhead transmitter (IKT)functions as both a
programmed ignition key that operates all the locks and starts the
vehicle, as well as a remote keyless entry transmitter. A maximum of
eight coded keys and remote keys can be programmed to your vehicle.
Theintelligent access keyfunctions as both a programmed key that
operates the driver door lock, activates intelligent access with push
button start systems as well as a remote keyless entry transmitter. A
maximum of eight intelligent access keys can be programmed to your
vehicle.
If your programmed transmitters or standard SecuriLockcoded keys
(IKTs only) are lost or stolen and you don’t have an extra coded key, you
will need to have your vehicle towed to an authorized dealer. 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 integrated keyhead transmitter (IKT) keys
If you have intelligent access keys, refer toProgramming spare
intelligent access keysin this section.
You can program your own integrated keyhead transmitters or standard
SecuriLockcoded keys to your vehicle. This procedure will program
both the engine immobilizer keycode and the remote entry transmitter
portion of the IKT to your vehicle.Note:A maximum of eight coded
keys can be programmed to your vehicle; all eight can be IKTs with
remote entry functionality.
Tips:
•Only use integrated keyhead transmitters (IKTs) or standard
SecuriLockkeys.
•You must have two previously programmed coded keys (keys that
already operate your vehicle’s engine) and the new unprogrammed
key(s) readily accessible.
•If two previously programmed coded keys are not available, you must
take your vehicle to your authorized dealer to have the spare key(s)
programmed.
Please read and understand the entire procedure before you begin.
1. Insert the first previously programmed coded key into the ignition.
2. Turn the ignition from off to on. Keep the ignition on for at least three
seconds, but no more than 10 seconds.
3. Turn the ignition off and remove the first coded key from the ignition.
4. After three seconds but within ten seconds of turning the ignition off,
insert the second previously coded key into the ignition.
5. Turn the ignition from off to on. Keep the ignition on for at least three
seconds, but no more than 10 seconds.
6. Turn the ignition off and remove the second previously programmed
coded key from the ignition.
7. After three seconds but within 10 seconds of turning the ignition off
and removing the previously programmed coded key, insert the new
unprogrammed key (new key/valet key) into the ignition.
8. Turn the ignition from off to on. Keep the ignition on for at least six
seconds.
9. Remove the newly programmed coded key from the ignition.
If the key has been successfully programmed it will start the vehicle’s
engine and will operate the remote entry system (if the new key is an
integrated keyhead transmitter).
