Locks and Security Releasing the trunk with the keyless entry system To release/open the trunk, enter the factory-set code or personal code (driver door unlocks) and press 5 • 6 within five seconds. If your vehicle is equipped with the optional power decklid, pressing 5 • 6 again will close it (you may need to reenter the keypad code again). Before operating the power decklid, be sure that no one, particularly a child, is in a position where he or she can be injured by the trunk lid. NEVER leave the remote entry transmitter where it can be inadvertently activated, as someone could be seriously injured by a moving decklid. SECURILOCKி 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. Note: Large metallic objects, electronic devices that are used to purchase gasoline or similar items, or a second coded key on the same key chain may cause vehicle starting issues. You need to prevent these objects from touching the coded key while starting the engine. These objects will not cause damage to the coded key, but may cause a momentary issue if they are too close to the key when starting the engine. If a problem occurs, turn the ignition off, remove all objects on the key chain away from the coded key and restart the engine. Theft indicator The theft indicator is located on top of the instrument panel. • When the ignition is in the OFF position, the indicator will flash once every 2 seconds to indicate the SecuriLock௢ system is functioning as a theft deterrent. 123 2003 Town Car (tow) Owners Guide (post-2002-fmt) USA English (fus)
