Automatic Disarming; Replacement Keys; Programming Spare Keys - Mercury Mountaineer 2005 Owner's Manual

The theft indicator will flash every
two seconds when the vehicle is
armed.

Automatic disarming

The vehicle is disarmed immediately after the vehicle is unlocked using
the remote keyless transmitter, the keyless entry system keypad (if
equipped) or the door lock cylinder (on vehicles equipped with the
perimeter alarm system).
• The theft indicator will illuminate for three seconds and then go out.
• If the theft indicator stays on for an extended period of time or
flashes rapidly, have the system serviced by your dealer.

Replacement keys

If your keys are lost or stolen and you don't have an extra coded key,
you will need to have your vehicle towed to a dealership. The key codes
need to be erased from your vehicle and new coded keys will need to be
programmed.
Replacing coded keys can be very costly. Store an extra programmed key
away from the vehicle in a safe place to help prevent any
inconveniences. Please visit an authorized dealer to purchase additional
spare or replacement keys.

Programming spare keys

You can program your own coded keys to your vehicle.
Tips:
• A maximum of eight keys can be coded to your vehicle.
• Only use SecuriLock
• You must have two previously programmed coded keys (keys that
already operate your vehicle's engine) and the new unprogrammed
key(s) readily accessible.
• If two previously programmed coded keys are not available, you must
take your vehicle to your dealer to have the spare key(s)
programmed.
