To clear all MyKeysas admin keys, use the information display control
to do the following:
1. Access the main menu and select Settings, then MyKey.
2. Scroll to Clear All and press the OK button.
3. Hold the OK button until ALL MYKEYS CLEARED is displayed.
CHECKING MYKEY SYSTEM STATUS
The information display control displays information about keys
programmed to the vehicle:
•MYKEY MILES:Tracks mileage when a restricted key is used. If
mileage does not accumulate as expected, then the key is not being
used by the intended user. The only way to reset this to zero is by
resetting the keys. If the mileage is lower than the last time you
checked, then the key system has been recently reset.
•# MYKEY(S):Indicates how many restricted keys are programmed
to the vehicle. Can also be used to detect deletion of a restricted key.
•# ADMIN KEY(S):Indicates how many admin keys are programmed
to the vehicle. Can also be used to detect if an additional key has
been programmed to the vehicle.
USING MYKEYWITH REMOTE START SYSTEMS
MyKeyis NOT compatible with non-Ford-approved aftermarket remote
start systems. If you choose to install a remote start system please see
your Ford authorized dealer for a Ford-approved remote start system.
The following information MAY help customers who choose to use a
non-Ford-approved remote start system. The actions provided below do
NOT make MyKeycompatible with non-Ford-approved remote start
system, but it MAY help you to retain some MyKeyfunctions.
Vehicles Equipped with Traditional Keys
When using a non-Ford-approved remote start system, the default
settings may recognize the remote start system as an additional admin
key with its associated privileges. This makes it NOT compatible with
MyKey. Restart the engine when you insert a key into the ignition
cylinder it may help you to retain some MyKeyfunctions.

Obstacle Detection
When closing:The system will reverse to full open when it detects an
obstacle. A chime will sound three times as the liftgate begins to reopen.
Remove the obstacle to close the liftgate.
Note:Entering the vehicle while the liftgate is closing can cause the
vehicle to bounce and activate obstacle detection. To prevent this, allow
the power liftgate to fully close before entering the vehicle. Before
driving off, check the instrument cluster for a liftgate or door ajar
message and/or warning indicator. Driving off without first checking for
the liftgate or door ajar message and/or warning indicator could result in
the liftgate being left open, unintentionally, while you are driving.
When opening:The system will stop and a chime will sound three times
when it detects an obstacle. Remove the obstacle to operate the liftgate.
Resetting the Power Liftgate
The liftgate may not operate properly and may need to be reset if any of
these conditions occur:
•a low voltage or dead battery
•disconnected battery
•the liftgate is manually closed and left ajar (unlatched)
To reset the power liftgate:
1. Disconnect the battery for 20 seconds then, reconnect the battery.
2. Manually close and fully latch the liftgate.
3. Power open the liftgate by using the transmitter, or the instrument
panel control button.
Manual Operation
WARNING:Make sure that the liftgate is closed to prevent
exhaust fumes from being drawn into the vehicle. This will also
prevent passengers and cargo from falling out. If you must drive with
the liftgate door open, keep the vehicle well ventilated so outside air
comes into the vehicle.
Note:Be careful when opening or closing the liftgate in a garage or
other enclosed area to avoid damaging the liftgate.
Note:Do not hang anything (bike rack, etc.) from the spoiler, glass or
liftgate. This could damage the liftgate and its components.
Note:Do not leave the liftgate open while driving. This could damage to
the liftgate and its components.
