Locks and Security

Deactivating/activating autolock

Your vehicle comes with the autolock feature activated. There are two
methods to enable/disable this feature: One is through your dealer, and
the second is using a power door unlock/lock sequence.
Before following the activation or deactivation procedures, make sure
that the anti-theft system is not activated, ignition is off, and the vehicle
doors are closed.

Power door unlock/lock procedure

You must complete steps 1-5 within
30 seconds or the procedure will
have to be repeated.
1. Turn the ignition to the RUN
position.
2. Press the driver door unlock
control three times.
3. Turn the ignition key from RUN
to OFF.
4. Press the driver door unlock control three times.
5. Turn the ignition back to RUN. The horn will chirp.
6. Press the unlock control, then press the lock control. The horn will
chirp once if autolock was deactivated or twice (one short and one long
chirp) if autolock was activated.
7. Turn the ignition to OFF.
SECURILOCK PASSIVE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM
SecuriLock passive anti-theft system is an engine immobilization
system. This system is designed to prevent the engine from being started
unless a coded key programmed to your vehicle is used. The use of
the wrong type of coded key may lead to a "no-start" condition.
Your vehicle comes with two coded keys; additional coded keys may be
purchased from your dealer. The dealer can program your spare keys to
your vehicle or you can program the keys yourself. Refer to
Programming spare keys for instructions on how to program the coded
key.
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.
