Your intelligent access keys to operate
the power locks and the remote start
system. The key must be in your
vehicle to activate the push-button
start system.
Removable Key Blade

contains a removable mechanical key
blade that you can use to unlock the
driver door.
E151796
Slide the release on the back of the
remote control and pivot the cover off
to access the key blade.
E151795
Note: Your vehicle’s backup keys came
with a security tag that provides
important vehicle key cut information.
Keep the tag in a safe place for future
reference.
Replacing the Battery
Note: Refer to local regulations when
disposing of transmitter batteries.
Note: Do not wipe off any grease on
the battery terminals or on the back
surface of the circuit board.
Note: Replacing the battery will not
delete the transmitter from the vehicle.
The transmitter should operate
normally.
A message will appear in the
information display when the remote
control battery is low. See
Information Messages (page 106).
Intelligent Access Transmitter
The remote control uses two
coin-type three-volt lithium batteries
CR2025 or equivalent.

Keys and Remote Controls

The horn will sound if the system fails
to start, unless quiet start is on. Quiet
start will run the blower fan at a
slower speed to reduce noise. It can
be switched on or off in the
information display. See General
Information (page 101).
Note: If the vehicle has been remote
started with an integrated keyhead
transmitter, you must switch the
ignition on before driving your vehicle.
With an intelligent access transmitter,
you must press the START/STOP
button on the instrument panel once
while applying the brake pedal before
driving your vehicle.
The power windows will not work
during the remote start and the radio
will not turn on automatically.
The parking lamps will remain on and
the vehicle will run for 5, 10, or 15
minutes, depending on the setting.
Extending the Vehicle Run Time
Repeat Steps 1 and 2 with the vehicle
still running to extend the run time for
another remote start duration. If you
programmed the duration to last 10
minutes, the second 10 minutes will
begin after what is left of the first
activation time. For example, if the
vehicle had been running from the first
remote start for five minutes, the
vehicle will continue to run now for a
total of 15 minutes. You can extend
the remote start up to a maximum of
35 minutes.
Wait at least five seconds before
remote starting after a vehicle
shutdown. Turning the Vehicle Off After
Remote Starting
E138625
Press the button once. The
parking lamps will turn off.
You may have to be closer to
the vehicle than when starting due to
ground reflection and the added noise
of the running vehicle.
You can disable or enable the remote
start system through the information
display. See General Information
(page 101).
REPLACING A LOST KEY OR
REMOTE CONTROL
Replacement keys or remote controls
can be purchased from an authorized
dealer. Authorized dealers can
program remote controls for your
vehicle. See Passive Anti-Theft
System (page 72).
To re-program the passive anti-theft
system see an authorized dealer.

Keys and Remote Controls

PRINCIPLE 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
administrator keys or admin keys.
These can be used to:
• create a MyKey
• program configurable MyKeysettings
• clear all MyKey features.
When you have programmed a MyKey,
you can access the following
information using the information
display:
• How many admin keys and MyKeys are programmed to your vehicle.
• The total distance your vehicle has traveled using a MyKey.
Note: All MyKeys are programmed to
the same settings. You cannot program
them individually.
Note: For vehicles with intelligent
access with 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
while switching the ignition on to start
the vehicle.
Non-configurabl e Settings
The following settings cannot be
changed by an admin key user: • Belt-Minder. You cannot disable
this feature. The audio system will
mute when the front seat
occupants’ safety belts are not
fastened.
• Early low fuel. The low-fuel warning activates earlier, giving the
MyKey user more time to refuel.
• Driver assist features, if equipped on your vehicle, are forced on:
parking aid, blind spot information
system (BLIS) with cross traffic
alert, lane departure warning and
forward collision warning system.
Configurabl e Settings
With an admin key, you can configure
certain MyKey settings when you first
create a MyKey and before you recycle
the key or restart the vehicle. You can
also change the settings afterward
with an admin key.
• A vehicle speed limit can be set.
Warnings will be shown in the
display followed by an audible
tone when your vehicle reaches the
set speed. You cannot override the
set speed by fully depressing the
accelerator pedal or by setting
cruise control.
• Vehicle speed minders of 45, 55 or 65 mph (75, 90 or 105 km/h).
Once you select a speed, it will be
shown in the display, followed by
an audible tone when the
preselected vehicle speed is
exceeded.
57
MyKey™

• Audio system maximum volumeof 45%. A message will be shown
in the display when you attempt
to exceed the limited volume. Also,
the speed-sensitive or
compensated automatic volume
control will be disabled.
• Always on setting. When this is selected, you will not be able to
turn off Advance Trac (if your
vehicle is equipped with this
feature).
CREATING A MYKEY
Use the information display to create
a MyKey:
1. Insert the key you want to program
into the ignition. If your vehicle is
equipped with a push-button start,
place the intelligent access key fob
into the backup slot. The location of
your backup slot is in another chapter.
See Starting and Stopping the
Engine (page 151).
2. Switch the ignition on.
3. Access the main menu on the
information display controls, and
select Settings then MyKey by
pressing OK or the > button.
4. Press OK or the > button to select
Create MyKey .
5. When prompted, hold the OK
button until you see a message
informing you to label this key as a
MyKey. The key will be restricted at
the next start. MyKey is successfully created. Make
sure you label it so you can distinguish
it from the admin keys.
You can also program configurable
settings for the key(s). See
Programming/Changing
Configurable Settings.
Programming/Changing
Configurabl
e Settings
Use the information display to access
your configurable MyKey settings.
1. Switch the ignition on using an
admin key or fob.
2. Access the main menu on the information display controls, and
select Settings, then MyKey by
pressing OK or > button.
3. Use the arrow buttons to get to a feature.
4. Press OK or > to make a selection.
Note: You can clear or change your
MyKey settings at any time during the
same key cycle as you created the
MyKey. Once you have switched the
vehicle off, however, you will need an
admin key to change or clear your
MyKey settings.
CLEARING ALL MYKEYS
You can clear all MyKeys within the
same key cycle as you created the
MyKey. If you switch your ignition off,
however, you will need to use an
admin key to clear your MyKeys.
58
MyKey™

Note:When you clear your MyKeys,
you remove all restrictions and return
all MyKeys to their original admin key
status at once.
To clear all MyKeys of all MyKey
settings, use the information display
to do the following:
1. Access the main menu and select Settings, then MyKey.
2. Scroll to Clear MyKey and press the OK button.
3. Hold the OK button until ALL MYKEYS CLEARED displays.
CHECKING MYKEY SYSTEM
S TAT U S
You can find information about your
programmed MyKeys by using the
information display.
MYKEY DISTANCE
Tracks the distance when drivers use
a MyKey. The only way to delete the
accumulated distance is by using an
admin key to clear your MyKey. If the
distance does not accumulate as
expected, then the intended user is
not using the MyKey, or an admin key
user recently cleared and then
recreated a MyKey. NUMBER OF MYKEY(S)
Indicates the number of MyKeys
programmed to your vehicle. Use this
feature to detect how many MyKeys
you have for your vehicle and
determine when a MyKey has been
deleted.
NUMBER OF ADMIN KEY(S)
Indicates how many admin keys are
programmed to your vehicle. Use this
feature to determine how many
unrestricted keys you have for your
vehicle, and detect if an additional
MyKey has been programmed.
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, see an
authorized dealer for a Ford-approved
remote start system.
