FORD 2001 Explorer - Manual (Page 114)

The inside lights will not turn off if:
• they have been turned on with the dimmer control or
• any door is open.
The battery saver will shut off the interior lamps 45 minutes after the
ignition has been turned to the OFF position.
Keyless entry system (if equipped)
With the keyless entry keypad, you
can:
• lock or unlock the vehicle doors
without using the key
• activate/deactivate the autolock feature
See also Remote entry system in this chapter for more information.
Your vehicle has a factory-set 5–digit code that operates the keyless
entry system. You can also program your own 5–digit personal entry
code.
The factory-set code is located:
• on the owner’s wallet card in the glove compartment
• taped to the computer module
• or at your dealer
When pressing the controls on the keyless entry keypad, press the
middle of the controls to ensure a good activation.
Programming your own personal entry code
1. Enter the factory-set code (keypad will illuminate when pressed).
2. Press the 1/2 control within five
seconds of step 1.
3. Enter your personal 5 digit code.
Enter each digit within five seconds
of the previous one.
Do not set a code that includes five of the same number or presents
them in sequential order. Thieves can easily figure out these types of
codes.
