Security 55 SECURILOCK® PASSIVE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED) Note: The 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. Note: Metallic objects, electronic devices or a second coded key on the same key chain may cause vehicle starting issues if they are too close to the key when starting the engine. Prevent these objects from touching the coded key while starting the engine. Switch the ignition off, move all objects on the key chain away from the coded key and restart the engine if a problem occurs. Note: Do not leave a duplicate coded key in the vehicle. Always take your keys and lock all doors when leaving the vehicle. The system is an engine immobilization system. It helps prevent the engine from starting unless a coded key programmed to your vehicle is used. Using the wrong key may prevent the engine from starting. A message may appear in the information display. If you are unable to start the engine with a correctly coded key, a malfunction has happened and a message may appear in the information display. Anti-Theft Indicator The anti-theft indicator is located in the instrument cluster. • When the ignition is off, the indicator will flash once every two seconds to indicate the SecuriLock system is functioning as a theft deterrent. • When the ignition is on, the indicator will glow for three seconds, then turn off to indicate normal system functionality. Vehicles without the SecuriLock Passive Anti-theft system behave as follows: • When the ignition is off, the indicator will not flash. • When the ignition is on, the indicator will glow for three seconds to indicate the engine is enabled.
