PASSIVE ANTI-THEFT
SYSTEM
Note:
The 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: Metallic objects, electronic
devices or a second coded key on the
same key chain may cause vehicle
starting problems if they are too close
to the key when starting the engine.
Prevent these objects from touching
the coded key while starting the engine.
Switch the ignition off, move all objects
on the key chain away from the coded
key and restart the engine if a problem
occurs.
Note: Do not leave a duplicate coded
key in the vehicle. Always take your
keys and lock all doors when leaving
the vehicle.
SecuriLock®
The system is an engine
immobilization system. It is designed
to help prevent the engine from being
started unless a coded key
programmed to your vehicle is used.
Using the wrong key may prevent the
engine from starting. A message may
appear in the information display.
If you are unable to start the engine
with a correctly coded key, a
malfunction has happened and a
message may appear in the
information display. Automatic Arming
The vehicle is armed immediately
after switching the ignition off.
Automatic Disarming
Switching the ignition on with a coded
key disarms the vehicle.
Replacement Keys
Note:
Your vehicle comes equipped
with two intelligent access keys.
The intelligent access key functions
as a programmed key that operates
the driver door lock and activates the
intelligent access with push button
start system, as well as a remote
control.
If your programmed transmitters are
lost or stolen and you do not 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.
Store an extra programmed key away
from the vehicle in a safe place to help
prevent any inconveniences. See your
authorized dealer to purchase
additional spare or replacement keys.
Programming a Spare Intelligent
Access Key
Note: You can program a maximum
for four intelligent access keys to your
vehicle.

HomeLink® Wireless Control
System (If Equipped)
WARNINGS
Make sure that the garage door
and security device are free from
obstruction when you are
programming. Do not program the
system with the vehicle in the garage. Do not use the system with any
garage door opener that does
not have the safety stop and reverse
feature as required by U.S. Federal
Safety Standards (this includes any
garage door opener manufactured
before April 1, 1982). Note:
Make sure you keep the original
remote control transmitter for use in
other vehicles as well as for future
system programming.
Note: We recommend that upon the
sale or lease termination of your
vehicle, you erase the programmed
function buttons for security reasons.
See Erasing the function button codes
later in this section.
Note: You can program a maximum
of three devices. To change or replace
any of the three devices after it has
been initially programmed, you must
first erase the current settings. See
Erasing the function button codes later
in this section. The universal garage door opener
replaces the common hand-held
garage door opener with a
three-button transmitter that is
integrated into the driver
’s sun visor.
The system includes two primary
features, a garage door opener and a
platform for remote activation of
devices within the home. As well as
being programmed for garage doors,
the system transmitter can be
programmed to operate entry gate
operators, security systems, entry
door locks and home or office lighting.
Additional system information can be
found online at www.homelink.com
or by calling the toll-free help line on
1-800-355-3515.
Programming
Note: Put a new battery in the
hand-held transmitter. This will ensure
quicker training and accurate
transmission of the radio-frequency
signal.

When automatic steering is finished,
the touch screen displays a message
indicating that the active park assist
process is done. The driver is
responsible for checking the parking
job and making any necessary
corrections before putting the
transmission in P (Park).
Deactivating the Park Assist
Feature
The system can be deactivated
manually by:
•
pressing the active park assist
button
• grabbing the steering wheel
• driving above approximately 20
mph (35 km/h) for 30 seconds
during an active park search •
driving above 6 mph (10 km/h)
during automatic steering
• turning off the traction control
system.
Certain vehicle conditions can also
deactivate the system, such as:
• Traction control has activated on
a slippery or loose surface.
• There is an anti-lock brake system
activation or failure.
• Something touches the steering
wheel.
If a problem occurs with the system,
a warning message is displayed,
followed by a chime. Occasional
system messages may occur in
normal operation. For recurring or
frequent system faults, contact an
authorized dealer to have your vehicle
serviced.
Troubleshooting the System The system does not look for a space

DRIVING THROUGH WATER
Note:
Driving through deep water
above the recommended levels can
cause vehicle damage.
Note: Once through the water, always
dry the brakes by moving your vehicle
slowly while applying light pressure on
the brake pedal. Wet brakes do not
stop the vehicle as quickly as dry
brakes. If driving through deep or standing
water is unavoidable, proceed very
slowly. Never drive through water that
is higher than the bottom of the wheel
rims (for cars) or the bottom of the
hubs (for trucks).
When driving through water, traction
or brake capability may be limited.
Also, water may enter your engine
’s
air intake and severely damage your
engine or your vehicle may stall. FLOOR MATS
WARNINGS
Always use floor mats that are
designed to fit the foot well of
your vehicle. Only use floor mats that
leave the pedal area unobstructed.
Only use floor mats that are firmly
secured to retention posts so that
they cannot slip out of position and
interfere with the pedals or impair safe
operation of your vehicle in other
ways. Pedals that cannot move freely
can cause loss of vehicle control
and increase the risk of serious
personal injury. Always make sure that the floor
mats are properly attached to
the retention posts in the carpet that
are supplied with your vehicle. Floor
mats must be properly secured to
both retention posts to ensure mats
do not shift out of position.
