FORD 2012 Flex v.2 - Manual (Page 144)

Arming the system
When armed, this system will respond if unauthorized entry is
attempted. When unauthorized entry occurs, the system will flash the
turn signal lamps and will sound the horn.
The system is ready to arm whenever the key is in the off position, or is
removed from the ignition. Either of the following actions will pre-arm
the alarm system:
• Press the
control on the remote entry transmitter portion of your
integrated keyhead transmitter.
When you press the lock control twice within three seconds on the
remote entry transmitter portion of your IKT, the horn will chirp once
to let you know that all doors, the hood and the liftgate are closed. If
any of these are not closed, the horn will chirp twice to warn you that
a door, the hood or the liftgate is still open.
• Press the driver or passenger
interior door lock control while
the door is open, then close the
door.
• Press and hold the 7 • 8 and 9 •
0 controls on the keyless entry
pad at the same time to lock the
doors (driver’s door must be
closed).
There is a 20 second countdown
when any of the above actions occur
before the vehicle becomes armed.
Each door, the hood, and the
liftgate is armed individually, and if
any are open, they must be closed
before the open entry point (door,
hood, or liftgate) can enter the
20 second countdown.
The turn signal lamps will flash once when all doors, the hood and the
liftgate are closed indicating the vehicle is locked and entering the
20 second countdown.
