Arming and disarming the alarm s system
If your vehicle is equipped with the factory
installed anti-theft system, the remote entry
system will automatically arm it when the doors
are locked with the remote entry LOCK button.
The remote entry UNLOCK button will disarm
or reset a triggered anti-theft alarm.
The remote entry system is designed to work
with the factory installed anti-theft system. It
may not work with other anti-theft systems.
Replacing the batteries
The remote entry transmitter is powered by two
coin type three-volt lithium 1616 batteries
(included) that should last for several years of
normal use. If you notice a significant decrease
in operating range, the batteries should be
replaced. Replacement batteries can be
purchased at most pharmacies, watch stores or at
your Ford or Lincoln-Mercury dealer.
