Locks and Security The power windows will be inhibited during the remote start and the radio will not turn on. The parking lamps will remain on and the engine will run for 5, 10, or 15 minutes, depending on how you programmed the system. To select the duration of the remote start system refer to Message center in the Instrument Cluster chapter. Extending the engine run time To keep the engine running for another remote start duration, repeat Steps 1 and 2 with the engine still running. If you programmed the duration to last 10 minutes, the second 10 minutes will begin immediately so that, for example, if the vehicle had been running from the first remote start for five minutes, the engine will continue to run for a total of 15 minutes. You can only extend the remote start once. If the vehicle is remote started then remote stopped, wait at least five seconds before remote starting a second time. The ignition switch must be turned to the on position and then back to the off position or allow one hour to pass before using remote start again. Turning the engine off after using remote start • Press one time. The parking lamps will turn off. You may have to be closer to the vehicle than when starting due to ground reflection and the added noise of the running engine. You can disable or enable the remote start system through the message center. Refer to Message center in the Instrument Cluster chapter. SECURICODE™ KEYLESS ENTRY SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED) You can use the keyless entry keypad to lock or unlock the doors without using a key. The keypad can be operated with the factory set 5-digit entry code; this code is located on the owner's wallet card in the glove box, is marked on the computer module, and is available from your authorized dealer. You can also create your own 5-digit personal entry code. When pressing the controls on the keypad, press the middle of the controls to ensure a good activation. 147 2012 F-250/350/450/550 (f23) Owners Guide, 4th Printing USA (fus)
