FORD 2013 Fiesta v.1 - Manual (Page 55)

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
The remote control allows you to:
• remotely lock or unlock the vehicle doors
• arm and disarm the anti-theft system
• remotely open the luggage compartment
• unlock the doors without actively using a key or remote control
(intelligent access only).
GENERAL INFORMATION ON RADIO FREQUENCIES
The remote control complies with part 15 of the FCC rules and with
RSS-210 of Industry Canada. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2)
This device must accept any interference received, including interference
that may cause undesired operation.
Note: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the
equipment.
The typical operating range for your transmitter is approximately 33 feet
(10 meters). A decrease in operating range could be caused by:
• weather conditions
• nearby radio towers
• structures around the vehicle
• other vehicles parked next to your vehicle.
Intelligent Access (If Equipped)
The system uses a radio frequency signal to communicate with your
vehicle and authorize your vehicle to unlock when commanded (either
by touching the inside of the driver door or front passenger exterior door
handle, by activating the exterior power liftgate button, or a button on
the transmitter itself). If excessive radio frequency interface is present in
the area, or if the transmitter battery is low, it may be necessary to
mechanically unlock your door. The mechanical key blade in your
intelligent access key can be used to open the driver’s door in this
situation. Refer to Remote Control in this chapter for more information
on the location and use of the mechanical key blade.
