How do I set up Remote Climate Controls in the FordPass®* App?

To use Climate Controls with FordPass, you must:

  • Have an active FordPass account.
  • Have an activated 2022 Ford F-150 Lightning added to FordPass. 

  1. Open the FordPass App. 
  2. Navigate to the Home tab.
  3. Scroll down to the Phone As A Key** command section. 
  4. Select Climate Control
  5. Select and/or edit five different climate options.
    • The first option is Default Climate Settings, which refers to your current in-vehicle settings. 
    • The next four options are customizable options. You can manage these based on your desired settings and temperature. 
  6. Choose your desired climate option and tap Save Selection
    • A success banner will display once set up is done. 
    • The setting will be applied once remote start is used to start your vehicle. 

Notes:

  • You may change the selection as often as you desire i.e. select the warm-up settings during the entire winter session or change the selection on a weekly basis. The last saved selection remains as the default climate setting. 
  • Remote Climate Control settings will only work when you start your vehicle through cellular remote start or Phone as a Key remote start, Scheduled Remote Start, or off plug conditioning (Battery Electric Vehicles).
  • Remote Climate Control settings will not work when you use your key fob to remotely start your vehicle.
