Ford Mustang (2005-2014) Owners Manual: Remote control

Integrated Keyhead Transmitters

The key blade is used to start the vehicle and unlock or lock the driver’s door from outside the vehicle. The transmitter portion functions as the remote control.

Note: If the vehicle is not equipped with active anti-theft system, locking the driver door with the key does not lock the passenger door. Use the power door lock, remote control or manually lock the passenger door to ensure the vehicle is properly secured.

Note: Your vehicle’s keys were issued with a security label that provides important vehicle key cut information. Keep the label in a safe place for future reference.

Car Finder

Press the button twice within three seconds. The horn will sound and the turn signals will flash. We recommend you use this method to locate your vehicle, rather than using the panic alarm.

Sounding a Panic Alarm

Press the button to activate the alarm. Press the button again or switch the ignition on to deactivate.

Note: The panic alarm will only operate when the ignition is off.

Replacing the Battery

Note: Refer to local regulations when disposing of transmitter batteries.

Note: Do not wipe off any grease on the battery terminals or on the back surface of the circuit board.

Note: Replacing the battery will not delete the transmitter from your vehicle. The transmitter should operate normally.

The remote control uses one coin-type three-volt lithium battery CR2032 or equivalent.
