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 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.
The system is an engine immobilization system. It helps prevent the
engine from starting 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
Your vehicle arms immediately after you switch the ignition off.
Anti-Theft Indicator
The anti-theft indicator is located in the instrument cluster.
•When the ignition is off, the indicator will flash once every
two seconds to indicate the SecuriLock system is functioning
as a theft deterrent.
•When the ignition is on, the indicator will glow for three seconds, then
turn off to indicate normal system functionality.
If a problem occurs with the SecuriLock system, the indicator will flash
rapidly or glow steadily when the ignition is on. If this occurs, switch the
ignition off then back on to make sure there was no electronic
interference with the programmed key. If your vehicle does not start, try
to start it with the second programmed key and if successful contact
your authorized dealership for key replacement. If the indicator still
flashes rapidly or glows steadily, your vehicle will not start. Contact your
authorized dealer as soon as possible for service.
Automatic Disarming
Your vehicle disarms when you switch the ignition on with a coded key.

7. After three seconds but within 20 seconds of turning the ignition off
and removing the previously programmed coded key, insert the new
unprogrammed key into the ignition.
8. Turn 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 vehicle’s engine and will operate the remote entry
system (if the new key is an integrated keyhead transmitter) if it has
been successfully programmed. The theft indicator light will illuminate
for three seconds and then go out to indicate successful programming.
If the key was not successfully programmed, the theft indicator light may
flash on and off. Wait 20 seconds and repeat Steps 1 through 8. Take
your vehicle to your 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.
ANTI–THEFT ALARM (IF EQUIPPED)
The active anti-theft system is designed to warn you in the event of
unauthorized vehicle entry and is also designed to help prevent
unwanted towing of the vehicle.
You can choose what is monitored by arming the system in different
ways.
Partial Monitor Mode
To monitor the following:
•Doors
•Hood
•Trunk
Lock the vehicle using the key in the driver door key cylinder.

Full Monitor Mode
To monitor the following:
•Doors
•Hood
•Trunk
•Movement inside the vehicle (for convertible models, top must be fully
closed)
•Change in vehicle inclination (such as unwanted towing)
Lock the vehicle using the remote control or the power door lock control
with the accompanying door open and then close all doors.
Note:Do not choose full monitor mode if movement within the vehicle is
likely to occur or when the vehicle is in transport.
Note:For proper operation of the interior motion detection system,
ensure all windows are closed prior to arming the system. This will help
prevent accidental alarm activation due to external influences and ensure
proper interior motion detection. Additionally, the interior motion
sensing system will not arm if either door or the trunk is ajar.
If there is any potential perimeter anti-theft problem with your vehicle,
ensure all integrated keyhead transmitters are brought to the authorized
dealer to aid in troubleshooting.
Arming the System
When armed, the active anti-theft system is designed to notify you of an
unauthorized entry. When unauthorized entry or towing occurs, the
system will flash the turn signal lamps and interior lamps and will sound
the horn.
The system is ready to arm whenever the key is out of the ignition. Any
of the following actions will arm the alarm system:
•Press the lock button on the remote control.
•Lock all doors using the interior power lock switch while the driver or
passenger door is open and then becomes closed.
•Lock the driver door with the key in the key lock cylinder (this will
not, however, arm the interior motion or vehicle incline sensing
systems).
There is a 20 second countdown when any of the above actions occur
before the vehicle becomes armed.
Security73
2014 05+ Mustang(197)
Owners Guide gf, 1st Printing, November 2012
USA(fus)
Each door, the hood or the trunk is armed individually, and if any are
open, they must be closed for the system to enter the 20 second
countdown.
The turn signal lamps will flash once when all doors, the hood and the
trunk are closed indicating the vehicle is locked and entering the
20 second countdown. If any closure is not properly closed, the turn
signal lamps will not flash and that closure will not be armed.
Disarming the System
You can disarm the system by any of the following actions:
•Unlock the doors by using the remote entry transmitter portion of
your integrated keyhead transmitter.
•Turn ignition to the on position with a valid programmed SecuriLock
key or integrated keyhead transmitter.
•Press the panic control on the remote entry transmitter portion of
your integrated keyhead transmitter. This will only shut off the horn
and turn lamps when the alarm is sounding. The alarm system will still
be armed.
•Use a key in the driver door to unlock your vehicle.
Pressing the power door unlock control within the 20 second prearmed
mode will return the vehicle to a disarmed state.
Note:Unlocking the trunk inhibits the motion sensing system but the
system continues to monitor the doors, hood and vehicle incline. Once
the trunk becomes closed the motion sensing system will rearm.
Triggering the Anti-Theft System
The armed system will be triggered if:
•Any door, the hood or the trunk is opened without using the remote
entry transmitter portion of your integrated keyhead transmitter or
key in driver door cylinder.
•The ignition is turned to the on position with an invalid
unprogrammed SecuriLock key or integrated keyhead transmitter.
•The vehicle is towed or inclined.
•Motion is detected in the interior passenger compartment.

WARNING: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.
WARNING: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.
SeeErasing the function button codeslater in this section.
Note:You can program a maximum of three devices. To change or
