2012 FORD FUSION HYBRID remote start

KEYS
Your vehicle is equipped with two
Integrated Keyhead Transmitters
(IKTs). The key blade functions as a
programmed key which starts the
vehicle and unlocks/locks all the
doors. The transmitter portion
functions as the remote entry
transmitter.
Your IKTs are programmed to your vehicle; using a non-programmed key
will not permit your vehicle to start. If you lose your authorized dealer
supplied IKTs, replacement IKTs are available through your authorized
dealer. Standard SecuriLockkeys without remote entry transmitter
functionality can also be purchased from your authorized dealer if
desired.
Always carry a spare key with you in case of an emergency.
For more information regarding programming replacement IKTs, refer to
theSecuriLockpassive anti-theft systemsection later in this chapter.
Note:Your vehicle’s IKTs were
issued with a security label that
provides important vehicle key cut
information. It is recommended that
you keep the label in a safe place
for future reference.

in addition to the key that has already been programmed as a MyKey.
To program the remote start system as MyKey, do the following:
1. Enter the vehicle and close all doors.
2. Remote start the vehicle using a remote start fob.
3. Follow the steps in theCreate a MyKeysection.
Note:For all vehicles, the number of MyKeys programmed or keys
programmed that are displayed in the MyKeysystem status will include
the remote start system as an additional key in the total count. See the
Check MyKeysystem statussection.
Note:For all vehicles with remote start installed, it is possible to
program all ’real’ keys as MyKeys, in which case, you will need to use
your remote start system to reset all MyKeysas admin keys by doing
the following:
1. Enter the vehicle, close all doors.
2. Remote start the vehicle using your remote start fob.
3. Follow the steps in theClear MyKeysection.

REMOTE ENTRY SYSTEM
The Integrated Keyhead Transmitter (IKT) complies with part 15 of the
FCC rules and with RSS-210 of Industry Canada. Operation is subject to
the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) This device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to
operate the equipment.
The typical operating range for your IKT is approximately 33 feet
(10 meters). A decrease in operating range could be caused by:
•weather conditions,
•nearby radio towers,
•structures around the vehicle, or
•other vehicles parked next to your vehicle.
The IKT allows you to:
•remotely unlock the vehicle
doors.
•remotely lock all the vehicle
doors.
•remotely open the trunk.
•activate the personal alarm.
•arm and disarm the perimeter
anti-theft system.
•operate the illuminated entry
feature.
The remote entry lock/unlock feature operates in any ignition position
except while the key is held in the start position. The panic feature
operates with the key in the off position.
If there are problems with the remote entry system, make sure to take
ALL Integrated Keyhead Transmitterswith you to the authorized
dealer in order to aid in troubleshooting the problem.

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)
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;
additional coded IKTs may be purchased from your authorized dealer.
Standard SecuriLockkeys without remote entry transmitter
functionality can also be purchased from your authorized dealer if
desired. The authorized dealer can program your spare IKTs to your
vehicle or you can program the IKTs yourself. Refer toProgramming
spare keysfor instructions on how to program the coded key.
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.
