LOCKING AND UNLOCKING
Remote Control
You can use the remote control at any
time.
Unlocking the Doors
The position lamps illuminate when you
unlock the doors. When you switch the
ignition on, they automatically turn off.
Note:
You can unlock the driver door with
the key. Use the key when the remote
control is not functioning.
Note: When you leave your vehicle
unattended for several weeks, the remote
control turns off. Your vehicle must be
unlocked and the engine started using the
key. Unlocking and starting your vehicle
once enables the remote control.
One-Stage Unlocking Press the button to unlock all
doors. The direction indicators
will flash.

front doors. Press the button
again within three seconds to
unlock all doors. The direction indicators
will flash.
Reprogramming the Unlocking
Function
When you press the unlock button only the
driver and passenger doors unlock.
Pressing the unlock button again unlocks
all doors.
You can reprogram the unlocking function
so that all doors unlock when you press
the unlock button once.
1. Switch the ignition off. 2. Press and hold both the lock and
unlock buttons on the remote control
until the direction indicators flash twice
to confirm the change.
To return to the original unlocking function,
repeat the process.
Locking the Doors Press the button to lock all
doors. The direction indicators
will flash.
Press the button again within three
seconds to confirm that all the doors are
closed. The doors will lock again, the horn
will sound and the direction indicators will
flash if all the doors and the liftgate are
closed.
Note: If any door or the liftgate is open, or
if the hood is open on vehicles with an
anti-theft alarm or remote start, the horn
does not sound.
Locking and Unlocking the Doors
From Inside
The power door lock control is on the driver
and front passenger door panels. Press the button to lock or
unlock all the doors. The lamp
illuminates with the doors
locked.

2020 Transit Connect (CHC) Canada/United States of America, CG3739en enUSA, Edition date: 201903, First-Printing Doors and Locks E102566

For vehicles with double locking, touch a
locking sensor twice within three seconds
to double lock your vehicle and arm the
alarm.
Note:
When locking your vehicle, do not
grip the door handle.
Note: Your vehicle remains locked for
approximately one second. When the delay
period is over, you can open the doors again,
provided the passive key is within the
respective detection range.
Note: Your vehicle does not automatically
lock. If you do not touch a locking sensor
your vehicle remains unlocked.
Two short flashes of the direction
indicators confirms that all the doors and
the liftgate have been locked and that the
alarm has been armed.
At the Liftgate
The liftgate cannot be closed and will
reopen if the passive key is located inside
the luggage compartment with the doors
locked.
Note: If a second valid passive key is
located within the liftgate detection range,
the liftgate can be closed.
Unlocking Your Vehicle Pull a front exterior door handle to unlock
and open the door. Do not touch the lock
sensor on the front of the handle.
One long flash of the direction indicators
confirms that all the doors and the liftgate
have been unlocked and that the alarm
has been disarmed. Note:
A valid passive key must be located
within the detection range of that door.
Unlocking Only the Driver's Door
You can program the system so that only
the driver door is unlocked. See Locking
and Unlocking (page 66).
If you program the unlocking function so
that only the driver door unlocks, the
following occurs:
• If the driver ’s door is the first door
which is opened, the other doors will
remain locked. All the other doors can
be unlocked from inside your vehicle
by pressing the unlock button located
on the driver's and front passenger's
door. You can unlock individual doors
by pulling the interior door handles on
those doors.
• If the front passenger's door is the first
door which is opened, all the doors and
the liftgate will be unlocked.
Disabled Keys
Any keys left inside your vehicle interior
when it is locked will be disabled.
You cannot use a disabled key to switch
the ignition on or start the engine.
You must enable all passive keys again in
order to use them. To enable all your
passive keys, unlock your vehicle using a
passive key that has not been disabled or
the remote control unlocking function. All
passive keys will then be enabled if you
switch the ignition on or you start your
vehicle with a valid key.
Note: You can still start your vehicle when
the passive key is in the back-up position.

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 programmed key on the same
key chain may cause vehicle starting
problems if they are too close to the key
when starting the engine. Prevent these
objects from touching the programmed key
while starting the engine. Switch the ignition
off, move all objects on the key chain away
from the programmed key and restart the
engine if a problem occurs.
Note: Do not leave a duplicate
programmed key in your vehicle. Always
take your keys and lock all doors when
leaving your vehicle.
SecuriLock®
The system is an engine immobilization
system. It is designed to help prevent the
engine from being started unless a
programmed key for your vehicle is used.
Using an incorrectly programmed 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
programmed key, a malfunction has
happened and a message may appear in
the information display.
Automatic Arming
The engine immobilization system arms
immediately after you switch the ignition
off. Automatic Disarming
Switching the ignition on with a
programmed key disarms the engine
immobilization system.
Replacement Keys
If your keys are lost or stolen and you do
not have a spare programmed key, you will
need to have your vehicle towed to an
authorized dealer. You need to erase the
programmed keys from your vehicle and
program new keys.
Store an extra programmed key away from
your vehicle in a safe place to help prevent
any inconveniences. We recommend that
you contact an authorized dealer to
purchase additional spare or replacement
keys.
Note:
Your vehicle comes with two keys.
Programming a Remote Flip Key
The procedure programs both the vehicle
immobilizer keycode and the remote entry
portion of the remote control to your
vehicle.
To program a new key, you require two
programmed keys and one unprogrammed
key with you in your vehicle.
We recommend that you contact an
authorized dealer to have the key
programmed if you do not have two
programmed keys.
Make sure that you complete the
procedure within 30 seconds.
Stop and wait for at least one minute
before you start again if you miss a step.

keys to your vehicle.
