Lincoln 1996 Continental, Owner'S Manual

NOTE: The operating range of the remote entry
system can also be affected by weather conditions
(such as very cold temperatures) or structures
around the vehicle (buildings, other vehicles, radio
and TV towers, etc.). Typical operating range will
allow you to be up to 33 feet (10 meters) away
from your vehicle.
The transmitter can be snapped apart to replace the
batteries by twisting a thin coin between the two
halves of the transmitter. DO NOT TAKE THE
FRONT PART OF THE TRANSMITTER
APART. When installing the new batteries, be sure
to place the positive (+) side down as marked.
Snap the two halves back together.
Replacement / additional transmitters
In the event a transmitter is lost, a new one may be
purchased from your dealer.
To program replacement or additional transmitters
you must have all the transmitters intended for use
on your vehicle.
Initiating the following procedure erases all prior
programmed transmitters, thus ALL must be
reprogrammed at the same time.
1. Enter the factory keyless entry code. Your
personal code will not allow programming.
2. Press the 1/2 button.
3. Press one button on each of the transmitters
to be programmed. Each transmitter button
must be pressed within seven (7) seconds of
the prior one. Each time a transmitter is
successfully programmed, all of the vehicle
doors will lock and then unlock to verify
programming. If the doors did not
lock/unlock, your transmitter was not
programmed.
Additional transmitters may be purchased from
your dealer (remote entry system will work with
up to four transmitters). Follow the same
programming procedure as above.
