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 your vehicle.
Prevent these objects from touching
the coded key while starting your
vehicle. 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.

from starting unless you use a coded
key programmed to your vehicle.
Using the wrong key may prevent your

malfunction has happened. A
message may appear in the
information display. Automatic Arming
Your vehicle arms immediately after
switching the ignition off.
Automatic Disarming
Switching the ignition on with a coded
key disarms your vehicle.

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. You need to erase the key
codes from your vehicle and program
new coded keys.
Store an extra programmed key away

your authorized dealer to purchase
additional spare or replacement keys.
