If you lose a key, you can obtain areplacement from your Ford Dealer.If possible, provide them with the keynumber from the tag provided withthe original keys. You can also obtainadditional keys from your FordDealer.

ARMING THE ENGINEIMMOBILISER

The engine immobiliser is armedautomatically a short time after youhave switched the ignition off.

DISARMING THE ENGINEIMMOBILISER

The engine immobiliser is disarmedautomatically when you switch theignition on with a correctly coded key.

If the message Immobiliser activeappears in the information display,your key has not been recognised.Remove the key and try again.

PRINCIPLE OFOPERATION

Alarm system

Your vehicle may be equipped withone of the following alarm systems:

Perimeter alarm. Perimeter alarm with interior

sensors. Category one alarm with interior

sensors and battery back-upsounder.

Category one alarm with interiorsensors, battery back-up sounderand tilt sensors.

Perimeter alarm

The perimeter alarm is a deterrentagainst unauthorised access to yourvehicle through the doors and thebonnet. It also protects the audio unit.

Interior sensors

E71401

WARNING

The sensors in the interior lampunit must not be covered up. Do

not activate the alarm with full guardif any persons, animals or othermoving objects are inside the vehicle.

The sensors act as a deterrentagainst unauthorised intrusion bysensing any movement within thevehicle.

Battery back-up sounder

The battery back-up sounder is anextra alarm system which will sounda siren when the alarm is triggered.It is armed directly when you lock thevehicle. The sounder has its ownbattery and will sound an alarm sireneven if someone disconnects thevehicle battery or the battery back-upsounder itself.

Tilt sensors

The tilt sensors detect if someoneattempts to steal a wheel or tow thevehicle away by sensing changes inthe inclination of the vehicle.

Note: When travelling on a ferry withthe alarm armed, deactivate the tiltsensors by selecting reduced guard.This will prevent the alarm from beingtriggered by the movement.

Triggering the alarm

Once armed, the alarm is triggeredin any of the following ways:

If someone opens a door, thetailgate or the bonnet without avalid key or remote control.

If someone removes the audio ornavigation system.

If the ignition is turned to positionI, II or III without a valid key.

If the interior sensors detectmovement within the vehicle.

45

Alarm

On vehicles with a batteryback-up sounder, if someonedisconnects the vehicle battery orthe battery back-up sounder itself.

If the tilt sensors detect a changein the inclination of the vehicle.

If the alarm is triggered, the alarmhorn will sound for 30 seconds andthe hazard warning flasher will flashfor five minutes.

Any further attempts to perform oneof the above will trigger the alarmagain.

Full and reduced guard

Full guard

Full guard is the standard setting.

In full guard, the interior and tiltsensors are activated when you armthe alarm.

Note: This may result in false alarmsif animals or moving objects areinside the vehicle or, on vehicles withtilt sensors, when travelling on a ferry.

Reduced guard

In reduced guard, the interior and tiltsensors are deactivated when youarm the alarm.

Note: You can set the alarm toreduced guard for the current ignitioncycle only. The next time you switchon the ignition, the alarm will be resetto full guard.

Ask on Exit

You can set the information displayto ask you each time which level ofguard you wish to set.

If you select Ask on Exit, themessage Reduced guard?appears in the instrument clusterdisplay each time you switch theignition off.

If you wish to arm the alarm withreduced guard, press the OK buttonwhen this message appears.

If you wish to arm the alarm with fullguard, leave the vehicle withoutpressing the OK button.
