Your vehicle comes with two coded keys; additional coded keys may be
purchased from and programmed by your authorized dealer.
Note: The SecuriLock

௡ passive anti-theft 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: Large metallic objects, electronic devices that are used to
purchase gasoline or similar items, or a second coded key on the same
key chain may cause vehicle starting issues. You need to prevent these
objects from touching the coded key while starting the engine. These
objects will not cause damage to the coded key, but may cause a
momentary issue if they are too close to the key when starting the
engine. If a problem occurs, turn the ignition off, remove all objects on
the key chain away from the coded key and restart the engine.
Note: Do not leave a duplicate coded key in the vehicle. Always
take your keys and lock all doors when leaving the vehicle.

Anti-theft indicator
The anti-theft indicator is located in the instrument cluster.
• When the ignition is in the off

position, the indicator will flash
once every two seconds to
indicate the SecuriLock

௡ system

is functioning as a theft
deterrent.

• When the ignition is in the on position, the indicator will glow for

three seconds, then turn off, to indicate normal system functionality.

If a problem occurs with the SecuriLock

௡ system, the indicator will flash

rapidly or glow steadily when the ignition is in the on position. If this
occurs, turn the ignition off then back to on to make sure there was no
electronic interference with the programmed key. If the vehicle doesn’t
start, try to start it with the 2nd programmed key and if successful
contact your authorized dealership for key replacement. If the indicator
still flashes rapidly or glows steadily, and the vehicle will not start,
contact your authorized dealer as soon as possible for service.

Automatic arming
The vehicle is armed immediately after switching the ignition to the off
position.

Automatic disarming
Switching the ignition to the on position with a coded key disarms the
vehicle.
