FORD 2013 Fiesta v.1 - Manual (Page 131)

Fast Restart
If a valid key is not present, the fast restart feature allows you to restart
your vehicle within 20 seconds of switching it off. Press the brake pedal
(automatic transmission) or the clutch pedal (manual transmission) if
the car is stationary. If the car is still moving, press the start button.
After 20 seconds have expired, you can no longer start your vehicle
without the key present inside the vehicle.
Once your vehicle has started, it remains running until you press the
start button, even if a valid key has not been detected. If you open and
close a door while your vehicle is running, the system searches for a
valid key. You are not able to start your vehicle if a valid key is not
detected within 20 seconds.

period of time and try again.
If you have difficulty starting the engine when the temperature is below
-13°F (-25°C), press the accelerator pedal slightly and try again.

then follow this procedure:
