FORD 2004 Taurus v.1 - Manual (Page 71)

If any of the doors or liftgate (wagon) are not properly closed the horn
will make two quick chirps, and the parklamps will not flash. As soon as
all vehicle doors and the liftgate (wagon) are closed, the parklamps will
flash once to confirm that all doors and liftgate (wagon) are closed.
Sounding a panic alarm
Press to activate the alarm. Both the horn will sound and the
parklamps will flash for a maximum of 30 seconds. Press again or turn
the ignition to ON to deactivate, or wait for the alarm to timeout in 3
minutes.
Note: The panic alarm will only operate when the ignition is in the OFF
or ACC position.
Opening the trunk
Press once to open the trunk or liftgate (wagon).
Replacing the battery
The remote entry transmitter uses one coin type three-volt lithium
battery CR2032 or equivalent. The typical operating range for your
remote entry transmitter is approximately 10 meters (33 feet). A
decrease in the operating range could be caused by:
• weather conditions,
• nearby radio towers,
• structures around the vehicle and
• other vehicles parked next to the vehicle.
To replace the battery:
1. Twist a thin coin between the two
halves of the remote entry
transmitter near the key ring. DO
NOT TAKE THE RUBBER COVER
AND CIRCUIT BOARD OFF THE
FRONT HOUSING OF THE
REMOTE ENTRY TRANSMITTER.
