2014 FORD EXPLORER key

SECURILOCK® 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 issues if they are too close to
the key when starting your vehicle. 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 your
vehicle if a problem occurs.
Note:Do not leave a duplicate coded key in your vehicle. Always take
your keys and lock the all doors when leaving your vehicle.
The system helps prevent the engine from starting unless you use a
coded key programmed to your vehicle. Using the wrong key may
prevent your vehicle from starting. A message may appear in the
information display.
If you are unable to start your vehicle with a correctly coded key, a
malfunction has occurred. A message may appear in the information
display.
Automatic Arming
Your vehicle arms immediately after you switch the ignition off.
Automatic Disarming
Your vehicle disarms when you switch the ignition on with a coded key.
Replacement Keys
Note:Your vehicle comes with two integrated keyhead transmitters or
two intelligent access keys.
The integrated keyhead transmitter functions as a programmed ignition
key that operates all the locks and starts the vehicle, as well as a remote
control.
The intelligent access key functions as a programmed key that operates
the driver door lock and activates the intelligent access with push button
start systems, as well as a remote control.
If your programmed transmitters or standard SecuriLock coded keys
(integrated keyhead transmitters only) 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 an authorized dealer to purchase
additional spare or replacement keys.
Programming a Spare Integrated Keyhead Transmitter
Note:You can program a maximum of eight coded keys to your vehicle.
Only four of these eight can be integrated keyhead transmitters.
You can program your own integrated keyhead transmitters or standard
SecuriLock coded keys to your vehicle. This procedure will program both
the engine immobilizer key code and the remote entry portion of the
remote control to your vehicle.
Only use integrated keyhead transmitters or standard SecuriLock keys.
You must have two previously programmed coded keys and the new
unprogrammed key readily accessible. See an authorized dealer to have
the spare key programmed if two previously programmed coded keys are
not available.
Read and understand the entire procedure before you begin.
1. Insert the first previously programmed coded key into the ignition.
2. Switch the ignition from off to on. Keep the ignition on for at least
three seconds, but no more than 10 seconds.
3. Switch the ignition off and remove the first coded key from the
ignition.
4. After three seconds but within 10 seconds of switching the ignition
off, insert the second previously coded key into the ignition.
5. Switch the ignition from off to on. Keep the ignition on for at least
three seconds, but no more than 10 seconds.
6. Switch the ignition off and remove the second previously programmed
coded key from the ignition.
7. After three seconds but within 20 seconds of switching the ignition off
and removing the previously programmed coded key, insert the new
unprogrammed key into the ignition.
8. Switch 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.
The key will start the engine and will operate the remote entry system
(if the new key is an integrated keyhead transmitter) if it has been
successfully programmed.

Wait 20 seconds and repeat Steps 1 through 8 if programming the key
was not successful. Take your vehicle to an authorized dealer to have the
new key programmed if you are still unsuccessful.
Wait 20 seconds and then repeat this procedure from Step 1 to program
an additional key.
Programming a Spare Intelligent Access Key (if equipped)
Note:You can program a maximum of four intelligent access keys to
your vehicle. You must take your vehicle and all access keys to an
authorized dealer to have them erased and reprogrammed if you would
like to replace a previously programmed access key with a new access
key, or if you already have four access keys programmed to your vehicle.
You must have two previously programmed intelligent access keys inside
the vehicle and the new unprogrammed intelligent access keys readily
accessible. See an authorized dealer to have the spare key programmed
if two previously programmed keys are not available.
Make sure that the vehicle is off before beginning this procedure. Make
sure to close all the doors before beginning and that they remain closed
throughout the procedure. Perform all steps within 30 seconds of
starting the sequence. Stop and wait for at least one minute before
starting again if you perform any steps out of sequence.
Read and understand the entire procedure before you begin.
1. Place the new unprogrammed
intelligent access key, with the
buttons facing out, in the pocket
inside of the center console.
2. Press the driver or passenger
power door unlock control three
times.
3. Press and release the brake pedal
one time.
4. Press the driver or passenger power door lock control three times.
5. Press and release the brake pedal one time. The indicator on the
START/STOPbutton should begin to flash rapidly. This indicates the
vehicle is in programming mode and that it has detected two
programmed intelligent access keys in the vehicle.

8. Verify that the remote entry functions operate (press lock then
unlock, making sure you end in unlock) and that the vehicle starts with
new intelligent access key.
ANTI-THEFT ALARM (IF EQUIPPED)
The system will warn you of unauthorized entry to your vehicle.
The turn signal lamps will flash and sound the horn up to a total of 10
times when:
•any door, the hood or the luggage compartment is opened without
using the keypad, the remote control or the intelligent access
transmitter (if equipped)
•the ignition is turned on with an invalid key.
Take all keys and remote controls to an authorized dealer if there is any
potential alarm problem with your vehicle.
Arming the Alarm
The system is ready to arm whenever the ignition is off. Lock the vehicle
to arm the alarm.
The turn signal lamps will flash once after locking the vehicle to indicate
the alarm is in the pre-armed mode. It will become fully armed in
20 seconds.
