DATA RECORDING
Service Data Recording
Service data recorders in your vehicle are
capable of collecting and storing diagnostic
information about your vehicle. This
potentially includes information about the
performance or status of various systems
and modules in the vehicle, such as engine,
throttle, steering or brake systems. In order
to properly diagnose and service your
vehicle, Ford Motor Company (Ford of
Canada in Canada), and service and repair
facilities may access or share among them
vehicle diagnostic information received
through a direct connection to your vehicle
when diagnosing or servicing your vehicle.
Additionally, Ford Motor Company (Ford of
Canada, in Canada) may, where permitted
by law, use vehicle diagnostic information
for vehicle improvement or with other
information we may have about you, (e.g.,
your contact information), to offer you

Children 12 years old and under should
always be properly restrained in the rear
seats. The Safety Canopy will not interfere
with children restrained using a properly
installed child or booster seat because it is
designed to inflate downward from the
headliner above the doors along the side
window opening.
The design and development of the Safety
Canopy included recommended testing
procedures that were developed by a group
of automotive safety experts known as the
Side Airbag Technical Working Group. These
recommended testing procedures help
reduce the risk of injuries related to the
deployment of side airbags (including the
Safety Canopy).
CRASH SENSORS AND AIRBAG
INDICATOR WARNING
Modifying or adding equipment to the
front end of the vehicle (including
frame, bumper, front end body structure and
tow hooks) may affect the performance of
the airbag system, increasing the risk of
injury. Do not modify the front end of the
vehicle. Your vehicle has a collection of crash and
occupant sensors which provide information
to the restraints control module. The
restraints control module deploys (activates)
the front seatbelt system, the adaptive
collapsible steering column, driver airbag,
passenger airbag, knee airbag(s), seat
mounted side airbags, Safety Canopy and
optional rear inflatable seatbelts. Based on
the type of crash, the restraints control
module will deploy the appropriate safety
devices.The restraints control module also monitors
the readiness of the above safety devices
plus the crash and occupant sensors. The
readiness of the safety system is indicated
by a warning indicator light in the instrument
cluster or a backup tone (if equipped).
Routine maintenance of the airbag is not
required.
A difficulty with the system is indicated by
one or more of the following:
The readiness light will not
illuminate immediately after the
ignition is turned on.
• The readiness light will either flash or
stay lit.
• A series of five beeps will be heard (If
equipped). The tone pattern will repeat
periodically until the problem, the light
or both are repaired.
If any of these things happen, even
intermittently, have the supplemental
restraint system serviced at an authorized
dealer immediately. Unless serviced, the
system may not function properly in the
event of a crash.

Remote Starting your Vehicle
Note: You must press each button within
three seconds of each other. Your vehicle
will not remote start if you do not follow this
sequence. The label on your transmitter details the
starting procedure.
1. Press the lock button to lock all the
doors.
2. Press the remote start button twice. The
exterior lamps flash twice.
A tone sounds if the system fails to start,
unless quiet start is on. Quiet start runs the
blower fan at a slower speed to reduce
noise. You can switch this feature on or off
in the information display. See General
Information (page 110).
Note: You must press the push button
ignition switch on the instrument panel once
while applying the brake pedal before
driving your vehicle. The power windows do not work during
remote start and the radio does not turn on
automatically.
The parking lamps remain on and your
vehicle will run for 5, 10 or 15 minutes,
depending on the setting.
Extending the Engine Running Time
To extend the engine running time duration
of your vehicle during remote start, repeat
steps 1 and 2 while the engine is running. If
the duration is set to 10 minutes, the duration
extends by another 10 minutes. For example,
if your vehicle had been running from the
first remote start for 5 minutes, your vehicle
continues to run now for a total of 20
minutes. You can extend the engine running
time duration to a maximum of 30 minutes.
Wait at least five seconds before remote
starting after the engine stops running.
Turning Your Vehicle Off After Remote
Starting
Press the button once. Your
vehicle and the parking lamps turn
off.

LOCKING AND UNLOCKING
Your vehicle has an intelligent electronically
controlled door system that is in constant
communication with overall vehicle systems.
When you lock your vehicle using the lock
switch on each door interior trim panel, or
by using the keyless entry keypad or the lock
sensor on each door exterior trim panel, the
exterior door handle switches will not release
the doors. This helps to secure your vehicle
and prevent unauthorized entry. Also, when
your vehicle reaches a speed greater than
12 mph (20 km/h) the exterior door handle
switches will not release the doors. A tone
may sound indicating the exterior door
handle switches will not release your door
and your vehicle is secure.
If the airbags deploy or the fuel pump shutoff
switch activates, all interior and exterior
unlock switches will not unlock your door for
six seconds. This helps to secure the doors
in the event of a crash. After six seconds, all
switches reset and you can open the doors
using the interior and exterior unlock
switches. Door Lock Indicator
An LED on each front door window trim
illuminates when you lock the doors. It
remains on for up to 10 minutes after you
switch the ignition off.
Door Lock Switch Inhibitor
When you electronically lock your vehicle,
the door lock switches and the interior
luggage compartment release switch do not
operate after 20 seconds. You must unlock
your vehicle with the remote control or
keyless entry keypad, or switch the ignition
on, to restore function to these switches. You
can switch this feature on or off in the
information display.
See General
Information (page 110).
