FORD 2001 Taurus - Manual (Page 76)

Triggering the anti-theft system
The armed system will be triggered if:
• Any door, liftgate or hood is opened without using the door key or the
remote entry transmitter.
• The trunk is forced opened.
KEYLESS ENTRY SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
With the keyless entry keypad, you
can:
• lock or unlock the vehicle doors
and liftgate (wagons) without using the key
• open the trunk
• arm and disarm the perimeter alarm system (if equipped)
See also Remote entry system and Perimeter alarm system in this
chapter for more information.
Your vehicle has a factory-set 5–digit code that operates the keyless
entry system. You can also program your own 5–digit personal entry
code.
The factory-set code is located:
• on the owner’s wallet card in the glove compartment
• taped to the computer module
• or at your dealer
When pressing the controls on the keyless entry keypad, press the
middle of the controls to ensure a good activation.
Programming your own personal entry code
1. Enter the factory-set code (keypad will illuminate when pressed).
