Warning light
Y
coming on
when driving
❒
If the warning light
Y
turns on, this
means that the system is running a
self-test (for example for a voltage
drop).
❒
If the problem persists, contact the
Ford Dealership.
SYMBOLS
Special coloured labels have been
attached near or actually on some of
the components of your car. These
labels bear symbols that remind you of
the precautions to be taken as regards
that particular component.
THE FORD SYSTEM
This is an electrical engine locking system
which increases protection from
attempted theft of the car. It is
automatically activated when the ignition
key is extracted.
Each time the car is started by turning
the ignition key to MAR, the Ford
CODE system control unit sends an
acknowledgement code to the engine
control unit to deactivate the inhibitor.
If, during ignition, the code is not
correctly recognized, the light
Y
lights up on the instrument panel.
In this case, turn the key to STOP and
then back to MAR. Try with the other
keys provided if the problem persists.
Contact a Ford Dealership if you still
cannot start the engine.
IMPORTANT Each key has its own
code which must be stored by the
system ECU. Contact the Ford
Dealership to have new keys (up to
eight) stored with the code.
The electronic components
inside the key may be
damaged if the key is
subjected to violent shocks.
