Mercury 1999 Mountaineer - Manual (Page 114)

Theft indicator
The theft indicator on the instrument cluster will operate as follows:
• When the ignition is OFF, the theft indicator will flash briefly every 2
seconds to indicate the SecuriLock
௢ system is protecting your
vehicle.
• When the ignition is turned to RUN or START, the theft indicator will
light for 3 seconds and then go out. If the theft indicator stays on for
an extended period of time or flashes rapidly, have the system
serviced by your dealership or a qualified technician.
Programming spare SecuriLock
ி
keys
Spare SecuriLock
௢ keys can be purchased from your dealership and
programmed to your SecuriLock
௢ passive anti-theft system (up to a
total of 8 keys). Your dealership can program your new SecuriLock
௢
key(s) to your vehicle or you can do it yourself using the following
simple procedure. To program a new SecuriLock
௢ key yourself, you will
need two previously programmed SecuriLock
௢ keys (keys that already
operate your vehicle’s engine). If two previously programmed
SecuriLock
௢ keys are not available (one or both of your original keys
were lost or stolen), you must bring your vehicle to your dealership to
have the spare SecuriLock
௢ key(s) programmed.
