2014 FORD FOCUS Ford focus II

Vehicles With Ford-approved Aftermarket Remote Start Systems
When using a Ford-approved aftermarket remote start system, the
vehicle recognizes the remote start system as an additional admin key.
It is the vehicle’s default setting. You can also program the remote start
as a MyKey. As a result, the MyKey system status menu display includes
the remote start system as an additional key in the total count of
MYKEY(S) PROGRAMMEDorADMIN KEYS PROGRAMMED.
SeeChecking MyKey System Status.
When you start your vehicle with a Ford-approved aftermarket remote
start system, the system stalls the vehicle after you open the door or
shift the vehicle into gear. This is intentional. When you restart your
vehicle, it reads your real key (traditional key or intelligent key fob)
status instead of the remote start system’s status.
As an added precaution, owners of vehicles equipped with traditional
keys may want to program the remote start system as a MyKey, if the
MyKey driver uses the remote start fob. That way, when the MyKey
driver starts the vehicle with the remote start system, the MyKey
restrictions remain active.
With a Ford-approved aftermarket remote start system, it is possible to
program all real keys as MyKeys unintentionally. If this happens, then the
remote start fob is the admin key. If you want to have only one real key
as a MyKey, or do not want to have any MyKeys, then you need to use
your remote start to clear all MyKeys. In that case, follow these steps:
•Enter the vehicle and close all doors.
•Remote start the vehicle using your remote start fob.
•SeeClearing All MyKeys. Follow Steps 1-3.
After clearing your MyKeys, you can create a new MyKey. SeeCreating
a MyKey.
Note:For vehicles with intelligent access keys (push-button start), you
cannot program the remote start system as a MyKey. Always treat the
remote start fob as you would any other admin key.
Vehicles With Non-Ford-approved Aftermarket Remote Start Systems
MyKey is not compatible with non-Ford-approved aftermarket remote
start systems. If you choose to install a remote start system, please see a
Ford authorized dealer for a Ford-approved system.

The following informationmayhelp customers who choose to install a
non-Ford-approved remote start system. The actions provided below
do not make MyKey compatible with non-Ford-approved remote start
systems, but may help you retain some MyKey functions.
When using a non-Ford-approved remote start system, the vehicle may
recognize the remote start system as an additional admin key with its
associated privileges. If you restart the vehicle by inserting a key into the
ignition cylinder and recycling the ignition completely, then you may
retain some MyKey functions. This action forces your vehicle to read the
traditional key instead of the remote start fob and then uses the key’s
associated privileges.

start system as an additional key in the total count ofMYKEY(S)

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 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.

Your vehicle is equipped with various emission control components and
a catalytic converter which will enable your vehicle to comply with
applicable exhaust emission standards. To make sure that the catalytic
converter and other emission control components continue to work
properly:
•Use only the specified fuel listed.
•Avoid running out of fuel.
•Do not turn off the ignition while your vehicle is moving, especially at
high speeds.
•Have the items listed inScheduled Maintenance Information
performed according to the specified schedule.
The scheduled maintenance items listed inScheduled Maintenance
Informationare essential to the life and performance of your vehicle
and to its emissions system.
If other than Ford, Motorcraft® or Ford-authorized parts are used for
maintenance replacements or for service of components affecting
emission control, such non-Ford parts should be equivalent to genuine
Ford Motor Company parts in performance and durability.
Illumination of the service engine soon indicator, charging system
warning light or the temperature warning light, fluid leaks, strange odors,
smoke or loss of engine power could indicate that the emission control
system is not working properly.
An improperly operating or damaged exhaust system may allow exhaust
to enter the vehicle. Have a damaged or improperly operating exhaust
system inspected and repaired immediately.
Do not make any unauthorized changes to your vehicle or engine. By
law, vehicle owners and anyone who manufactures, repairs, services,
sells, leases, trades vehicles, or supervises a fleet of vehicles are not
permitted to intentionally remove an emission control device or prevent
it from working. Information about your vehicle’s emission system is on
the Vehicle Emission Control Information Decal located on or near the
engine. This decal also lists engine displacement.
Please consult your warranty information for complete emission warranty
information.
