GENERAL INFORMATION
ON RADIO FREQUENCIES
This device complies with Part 15 of
the FCC Rules and with Industry
Canada license-exempt RSS
standard(s). 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.
Note:
Changes or modifications not
expressively approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void
the user's authority to operate the
equipment. The term IC before the
radio certification number only signifies
that Industry Canada technical
specifications were met.
The typical operating range for your
transmitter is approximately 33 feet
(10 meters). Vehicles with the remote
start feature will have a greater range.
One of the following could cause a
decrease in operating range:
• weather conditions
• nearby radio towers
• structures around the vehicle
• other vehicles parked next to your
vehicle The radio frequency used by your
remote control can also be used by
other short distance radio
transmissions, for example amateur
radios, medical equipment, wireless
headphones, remote controls and
alarm systems. If the frequencies are
jammed, you will not be able to use
your remote control. You can lock and
unlock the doors with the key.
Note:
Make sure to lock your vehicle
before leaving it unattended.
Note: If you are in range, the remote
control will operate if you press any
button unintentionally.
Intelligent Access
The system uses a radio frequency
signal to communicate with your
vehicle and authorize your vehicle to
unlock when one of the following
conditions are met:
• You touch the inside of the front
exterior door handle.
• You press the luggage
compartment button.
• You press a button on the
transmitter.
If excessive radio frequency
interference is present in the area or
if the transmitter battery is low, you
may need to mechanically unlock your
door. You can use the mechanical key
blade in your intelligent access key to
open the driver door in this situation.
See
Remote Control (page 53).

MKZ (CC9) Keys and Remote Controls

REMOTE CONTROL
Intelligent Access Key
Your intelligent access keys to operate
the power locks and the remote start
system. The key must be in your
vehicle to activate the push-button

contains a removable mechanical key
blade that you can use to unlock the
driver door.
Slide the release on the back of the
remote control and pivot the cover off
to access the key blade. Note:
Your vehicle ’s backup keys came
with a security tag that provides
important vehicle key cut information.
Keep the tag in a safe place for future
reference.
Replacing the Battery

disposing of transmitter batteries.
Note: Do not wipe off any grease on
the battery terminals or on the back
surface of the circuit board.
Note: Replacing the battery will not
delete the transmitter from the vehicle.
The transmitter should operate
normally.
A message will appear in the
information display when the remote
control battery is low. See
Information Messages (page 117).
Intelligent Access Transmitter
The remote control uses two
coin-type three-volt lithium batteries
CR2025 or equivalent.

This feature allows you to start your
vehicle from outside the vehicle. The
transmitter has an extended operating
range.
Vehicles with automatic climate
control can be configured to operate
when the vehicle is remote started.
See Climate Control (page 138). A
manual climate control system will
run at the setting it was set to when
you switched the vehicle off.
Many states and provinces have
restrictions for the use of remote start.
Check your local and state or
provincial laws for specific
requirements regarding remote start
systems.
The remote start system will not work
if:
• the ignition is on
• the alarm system is triggered
• you disable the feature
• the hood is open
• the transmission is not in
P

Fuel Gauge:
The fuel gauge will indicate
approximately how much fuel is left
in the fuel tank. The fuel gauge may
vary slightly when your vehicle is
moving or on a gradient. The arrow
adjacent to the fuel pump symbol
indicates on which side of the vehicle
the fuel filler door is located.
Brake Coach Display:
The Brake Coach appears after the
vehicle has come to a stop. It coaches
you to brake in a manner which
maximizes the amount of energy
returned through the regenerative
braking system. The percent displayed
is an indication of the regenerative
braking efficiency with 100%
representing the maximum amount
of energy recovery.
Trip Summary and Lifetime
Summary:
These will be displayed upon shutting
off the vehicle. Trip Summary will
appear first, then Lifetime Summary
will be displayed. You can toggle
between these displays using the up
and down arrow keys on the left hand
steering wheel controls.
Trip Summary data is from the last
power cycle, while Lifetime Summary
data is cumulative from the last
Lifetime Summary reset done through
the Settings menu in the information
display screen.
Trip Summary:
•
Distance- The total distance
traveled, distance traveled on
battery power only (EV distance)
and Regen distance are displayed.
Regen distance is the estimated
range gained from energy
recaptured through regenerative
braking.
• Energy Use- The average fuel
economy and total fuel used are
displayed.
• Brake Score- The average
percentage of braking energy
recaptured and returned to the
high-voltage battery through
regenerative braking. The brake
score will be shown in blue if
greater than (better than) the
lifetime brake score.
