Radio frequency information The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and the Canadian Radio and Telecommunications Commission(CRTC) establish the frequencies AM and FM stations may use for their broadcasts. Allowable frequencies are: AM 530, 540–1600, 1610 kHz FM 87.7, 87.9–107.7, 107.9 MHz Not all frequencies are used in a given area. Radioreceptionfactors Three factors can affect radio reception: † Distance/strength. The further an FM signal travels, the weaker it is. The listenable range of the average FM station is approximately 40 km (24 miles). This range can be affected by “signal modulation.” Signal modulation is a process radio stations use to increase their strength/volume relative to other stations. † Terrain. Hills, mountains and tall buildings between your vehicle’s antenna and the radio station signal can cause FM reception problems. Static can be caused on AM stations by power lines, electric fences, traffic lights and thunderstorms. Moving away from an interfering structure (out of its “shadow”) returns your reception to normal. 62 Controls and features † Station overload. Weak signals are sometimes captured by stronger signals when you pass a broadcast tower. A stronger signal may temporarily overtake a weaker signal and play while the weak station frequency is displayed. The audio system automatically switches to single channel reception if it will improve the reception of a station normally received in stereo. Audio system warranties and service Refer to the “Warranty Guide” for audio system warranty information. If service is necessary, see your dealer or a qualified technician.

The electronic day/night mirror will change from the normal state to the non-glare state when bright lights (glare) reach the mirror. When the mirror detects bright light from front or behind, it will automatically adjust (darken) to minimize glare. Do not block the sensor on the backside of the mirror since this may impair proper mirror performance. Press the control to turn the mirror on or off. The mirror will automatically return to the normal state whenever the vehicle is placed in R (Reverse)(when the mirror is on) to ensure a bright clear view when backing up. MIRROR COMP ELECTRONIC COMPASS (IF EQUIPPED) The compass reading will remain accurate during most driving conditions. Unknown to the driver, the compass is continuously recalibrating due to magnetic fields and subtle, slow changes in vehicle magnetics which can occur over the life of the vehicle. The compass reading will remain fixed when significant levels are experienced (such as steel bridges). The compass will return to normal operation upon leaving the magnetized area. If highly magnetized items (such as magnetic mount antennas) are placed very near the compass the display will change to “C” for 15 seconds, then display all segments until the magnetized item is removed. If a “C” is displayed, refer to Compass calibration adjustment. Most geographic areas (zones) have a magnetic north compass point that varies slightly from the northerly direction on maps. This variation is four degrees between adjacent zones and will become noticeable as the vehicle crosses multiple zones. A correct zone setting will eliminate this error. Refer to Compass zone adjustment. 73 Controls and features Compass zone adjustment 1. Determine which compass zone you are in by referring to the zone map. 15 14 13 12 11 10 8 9 COMP MIRROR NW 2.

Replacing the battery The remote transmitter is powered by one coin type three-volt lithium battery CR2032 or equivalent. Typical operating range will allow you to be up to 10 meters (33 feet) away from your vehicle. A decrease in operating range can be caused by: † weather conditions † nearby radio towers † structures around the vehicle † other vehicles parked next to the vehicle To replace the battery: 1. Twist a thin coin between the two halves of the transmitter near the key ring. DO NOT TAKE THE FRONT PART OF THE TRANSMITTER APART. 2. Place the positive (+) side of new battery in the same orientation. Refer to the diagram inside the transmitter unit. 3. Snap the two halves back together. Replacement of the battery will not cause the remote transmitter to become deprogrammed from your vehicle. The remote transmitter should operate normally after battery replacement. 83 Controls and features Replacing lost transmitters Take all your vehicle’s transmitters to your dealer if service is required. If you purchase additional transmitters (up to four may be programmed into memory), perform the following procedure: To reprogram the transmitters yourself, place the key in the ignition and turn from OFF to ON four times in rapid succession within 3 seconds. After doors lock/unlock, press any control on all transmitters (up to four). When completed, turn the ignition to OFF. All transmitters must be programmed at the same time. SECURILOCKY PASSIVE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM Your vehicle is equipped with a coded-key anti-theft system. Only the correct key will be able to start your vehicle. If your keys are lost or stolen, you must take your vehicle to your dealership for key reprogramming. This system provides an advanced level of vehicle theft protection. Your vehicle’s engine can only be started with the two coded keys provided with your vehicle. Each time you start your vehicle, the coded key is read by the anti-theft system. If the key identification code matches the code stored in the anti-theft system, the vehicle’s engine is allowed to start. If the key identification code does not match the code stored in the system or if a coded key is not detected (vehicle theft situation), the vehicle’s engine will not operate. If there is any anti-theft problem with your vehicle, ensure ALL coded keys for that vehicle are brought to the dealership, to aid in troubleshooting. The SecuriLocky passive anti-theft system is not compatible with aftermarket remote start systems. Use of these systems may result in vehicle starting problems and a loss of security protection. Large metallic objects, electronic devices on the key chain that can be used to purchase gasoline or similar items, or a second key on the same key ring as the PATS ignition key may cause vehicle starting concern and record DTC’s under certain conditions. If present, you need to keep these objects from touching the PATS ignition key while starting the engine. These objects 84 Controls and features and devices cannot damage the PATS ignition key, but can cause a momentary concern if they are too close to the key during engine start. If a problem occurs, turn ignition OFF and restart the engine with all other objects on the key ring held away from the ignition key. Check to make sure the encoded ignition key is an approved Ford encoded ignition key. Spare coded keys can be purchased from your dealership and programmed to your anti-theft system. Refer to Programming spare SecuriLocky keys for more information. If one or both of your coded keys are lost or stolen and you want to ensure the lost or stolen key will not operate your vehicle, bring your vehicle and all available coded keys to your dealership for reinitialization. Theft indicator The theft indicator in the instrument cluster will operate as follows: † When the ignition is OFF, the theft indicator will flash briefly every two seconds to indicate the anti-theft system is protecting your vehicle. † When the ignition is turned to ON or START, the theft indicator will light for three seconds and then go out. If the theft indicator stays on for an extended period of time or flashes rapidly, have the system serviced by your dealership or a qualified technician. Programming spare SecuriLockY keys Spare coded keys can be purchased from your dealership and programmed to your anti-theft system (up to a total of eight keys). Your dealership can program your new coded key(s) to your vehicle or you can do it yourself using the following simple procedure. To program a new coded key yourself, you will need two previously programmed coded keys (keys that already operate your vehicle’s engine). If two previously programmed coded keys are not available (one or both of your original keys were lost or stolen), you must bring your vehicle to your dealership to have the spare coded key(s) programmed. ProceduretoprogramspareSecuriLockY keystoyourvehicle New coded keys must have the correct mechanical key cut for your vehicle. Conventional (non-coded) keys cannot be programmed to your vehicle. 85 Controls and features You will need to have two previously programmed coded keys and the new unprogrammed SecuriLocky key readily accessible for timely implementation of each step in the procedure. Please read and understand the entire procedure before you begin. 1. Insert the first previously programmed coded key into the ignition and turn the ignition from OFF to ON (maintain ignition in ON for at least one second). 2. Turn ignition to OFF and remove the first coded key from the ignition. 3. Within five seconds of turning the ignition to OFF, insert the second previously programmed coded key into the ignition and turn the ignition from OFF to ON (maintain ignition in ON for at least one second but no more than five seconds). 4. Turn the ignition to OFF and remove the second coded key from the ignition. 5. Within 10 seconds of turning the ignition to OFF, insert the new unprogrammed key (new key/valet key) into the ignition and turn the ignition from OFF to ON (maintain ignition in ON for at least one second). This step will program your new key to a coded key. 6. To program additional new unprogrammed key(s), repeat this procedure from step 1. If the programming procedure was successful, the new coded key(s) will start the vehicle’s engine. The theft indicator (located on the instrument panel) will light for three seconds and then go out. If the programming procedure was not successful, the new coded key(s) will not operate the vehicle’s engine. The theft indicator will flash on and off. Wait at least one minute and then repeat the procedure from step 1. If failure repeats, bring your vehicle to your dealership to have the new spare key(s) programmed. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 KEYLESS ENTRY SYSTEM With the keyless entry keypad, you can: † lock or unlock the vehicle doors † open trunk † disable/enable horn chirp. † disable/enable autolock without using the key. 86 Controls and features See also Remote entry system in this chapter for more information.
