PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
MyKey® allows you to program keys with restricted driving modes to
promote good driving habits. All but one of the keys programmed to the
vehicle can be activated with these restricted modes. Any keys that have
not been programmed are referred to as an administrator key or admin
key which can be used to:
•create a restricted key
•program optional MyKey settings
•clear all MyKey features altogether.
Once a key has been programmed, you can access the following
information using the information display control:
•How many admin keys and MyKeys are programmed to the vehicle.
•The total distance the vehicle has been driven with a MyKey.
For vehicles equipped with intelligent access (push button start), when
both a MyKey and an admin intelligent access key (fob) are present, the
admin fob will be recognized by the vehicle to start the engine.
Standard Settings
These settings cannot be changed.
•Belt-Minder. This cannot be disabled and the five-minute timer does
not expire. The audio system is muted when this feature is activated.
•Early low fuel.
•When the fuel gauge reads approximately 3/32nd tank, or your
estimated travel distance is 62 miles (100 kilometers) until the
tank is empty, whichever comes first.
•The fuel indicator lamp illuminates in yellow and the information
display shows a low fuel message.
•When the fuel tank gauge reads “E,” another set of warnings occur:
the information display shows a red warning light and the words
“Low Fuel” in red.
•Driver assist features, if equipped on your vehicle, are forced on:
parking aid, blind spot information system (BLIS) with cross traffic
alert and the collision warning system.

does not accumulate as expected, then the MyKey is not being used
by the intended user. The only way to reset this to zero is by clearing
MyKeys. If the mileage is lower than the last time you checked, then
the key system has been recently reset.
•# MYKEY(S):Indicates how many MyKeys are programmed to the
vehicle. Can also be used to detect deletion of a MyKey.
•# ADMIN KEY(S):Indicates how many admin keys are programmed
to the vehicle. Can also be used to detect if an additional key has
been programmed to the vehicle.
USING MYKEY WITH 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
your Ford authorized dealer for a Ford-approved remote start system.
The following information MAY help customers who choose to use a
non-Ford-approved remote start system. The actions provided below do
NOT make MyKey compatible with non-Ford-approved remote start
system, but it MAY help you to retain some MyKey functions.

Vehicles Equipped with Traditional Keys
When using a non-Ford-approved remote start system, the default
settings may recognize the remote start system as an additional admin
key with its associated privileges. It is NOT compatible with MyKey.
Restart the engine when you insert a key into the ignition cylinder; it
may help you to retain some MyKey functions.
In addition to the key that has been programmed as a MyKey, owners of
vehicles equipped with traditional keys have the option to program the
non-Ford-approved remote start system as a MyKey if the remote start
fob is used by the MyKey driver.
To program a non-Ford-approved remote start system as a MyKey, do the
following:
1. Enter the vehicle and close all doors.
2. Remote start the vehicle using a non-Ford approved remote start fob.
3. Follow Steps 1-5 in theCreating a MyKeysection.
Vehicles Equipped with Intelligent Access Key (Push Button Start)
Note:It is not possible to program the remote start system as a MyKey
on vehicles equipped with intelligent access key (push button start).
Therefore, you should treat the remote start fob as you would any other
admin key. When the vehicle is started using remote start, the system
will stall the engine when you either enter the vehicle or shift the vehicle
into gear. Prior to the engine stall, the vehicle will have administrative
privileges. When you restart the engine, the vehicle will identify the user
as an admin or MyKey driver depending on the settings of the actual key
used to start the vehicle.
Note:For all vehicles, the number of MYKEY(S) PROGRAMMED or
ADMIN KEYS PROGRAMMED that is displayed in the MyKey system
status menu, may include the non-Ford-approved remote start system as
an additional key in the total count. See theChecking System Status
section.
For all vehicles with a non-Ford-approved remote start installed, it is
possible to program all real keys as MyKeys, in which case, you will need
to use your remote start system to clear all MyKeys (which removes all
restrictions and returns them to admin key status) by doing the
following:
1. Enter the vehicle and close all doors.
2. Remote start the vehicle using your non-Ford-approved remote start
fob.
3. Follow Steps 1-3 in theClearing all MyKeyssection.

Enabling or Disabling Autolock and Autounlock
Note:The autolock and autounlock features can be activated or
deactivated independently of each other:
•through your authorized dealer
•by using the information display.
Before following the activation or deactivation procedures, make sure
that the active anti-theft system is not armed, the ignition is off, and all
vehicle doors are closed.
Illuminated Entry
The interior lamps and turn signal lamps illuminate when the integrated
keyhead transmitter is used to unlock the door(s).
The illuminated entry system will turn off the interior lights if:
•the ignition switch is turned to the on position, or
•the integrated keyhead transmitter lock control is pressed, or
•after 25 seconds of illumination.
The inside lights will not turn off if:
•they have been turned on with the dimmer control, or
•any door is open.
Illuminated Exit
•When all vehicle doors are closed and the key is removed from the
ignition, the interior dome lamp and the turn signal lamps will
illuminate.
The lights will turn off if all the doors remain closed and:
•25 seconds elapse, or
•the key is inserted in the ignition.
Battery Saver
The battery saver will shut off the interior lamps 10 minutes after the
ignition has been turned to the off position and a door is left open, and
in 30 minutes if the dome lamp control is left on and the ignition has
been turned to the off position. The battery saver will also shut off the
trunk lamps in 30 minutes if the trunk is left open.

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.
