Passive Key; Unlocking Your Vehicle - Ford 2016 Mustang Owner's Manual

Passive locking and unlocking requires a
valid passive key to be located within one
of the three external detection ranges.
These are located approximately 1.5 m
(5 ft) from the front door handles and the
luggage compartment.
Note: The system may not function if the
passive key is close to metal objects or
electronic devices, for example keys or a cell
phone.

Passive Key

Your vehicle can be locked and unlocked
using the passive key. You can also use the
passive key as a remote control to lock and
unlock your vehicle. See Locking and
Unlocking (page 40).
