How do I unlock my Lincoln when the Intelligent Access Key is not working?
The Intelligent Access key contains a removable mechanical key blade. It can be used to unlock the driver's door in case the remote transmitter battery loses its charge.
Important: The backup keys that come with your vehicle have a security tag that provides important vehicle key cut information. Keep these tags in a safe place for reference.
Unlocking Your Vehicle With a Key Blade
-
Slide the release on the back of the transmitter and either pull out the key blade or pivot the cover off.
Note: The method of accessing the key blade and changing the transmitter battery varies based on the type of key fob that comes with your vehicle. For information specific to your vehicle, refer to your Owner's Manual.
- Locate the key slot on the driver's door handle and insert the key blade into the key slot. Depending on your vehicle, the slot will be located on the bottom or on the side of the handle under a cap.
- Rotate the key towards the rear of the vehicle to release the door lock.
Notes:
- Once you are in the vehicle, the key fob is stored in a pocket in the center console or a slot in the steering column. Place the key in the slot and press the Start/Stop button to start your vehicle.
- You can lock your door by placing your key back in the key slot. Apply pressure and move it forward until it is in place. You may hear a sound as it engages.
