Using The Remote Control Start Function; Starting Your Vehicle - Ford Vehicle Security and Remote Start Systems Owner's Manual

Using the Remote Control Start Function

Your Ford/Lincoln/Mercury vehicle may be equipped with a Securilock Anti-Theft
system. If so, your PowerCode Remote Control Start system interfaces with the
Securilock system, fully maintaining the level of security provided by the Securilock
system. The PowerCode Securilock interface is sold separately.

Starting Your Vehicle:

The remote control start function is activated by pressing and holding* the
button on the PowerCode remote control transmitter. The system will check the
vehicle to ensure that it is safe to start, and if all safety parameters are correct, the
engine will start within 5 seconds (diesel engines vehicle take 30 seconds, to allow
the glowplugs sufficient time in all conditions to heat up) Press and hold* the
button again to turn off the vehicle.
Note: On certain model vehicles, each time the remote control start
feature is activated the vehicle doors will lock, and all power windows
(and moonroof if equipped) will be disabled while the vehicle is remote
started. The windows (and moonroof if equipped) will resume normal
operation after the remote start is shut down, or the vehicle is being
used with the key.
If your vehicle fails to start:
If your vehicle fails to attempt to start and provides feedback through by honking the
horn a certain amount of times, check the troubleshooting section of this manual for
possible causes.
If the vehicle attempts to start but stalls, depending on how the system was
configured, it may re-attempt to start after pausing 5 seconds, then re-attempting up
to four times. If the vehicle does not start after the fourth attempt, the system will
abort the start process.
* "Press & Hold" refers to pushing a transmitter button for more than one second.
