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.

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.
