DATA RECORDING
Service Data Recording
Service data recorders in your vehicle are capable of collecting and
storing diagnostic information about your vehicle. This potentially
includes information about the performance or status of various systems
and modules in the vehicle, such as engine, throttle, steering or brake
systems. In order to properly diagnose and service your vehicle, Ford
Motor Company, Ford of Canada, and service and repair facilities may
access or share among them vehicle diagnostic information received
through a direct connection to your vehicle when diagnosing or servicing
your vehicle. Additionally, when your vehicle is in for service or repair,
Ford Motor Company, Ford of Canada, and service and repair facilities
may access or share among them data for vehicle improvement purposes.
For U.S. only (if equipped), if you choose to use the SYNC® Vehicle
Health Report, you consent that certain diagnostic information may also
be accessed electronically by Ford Motor Company and Ford authorized
service facilities, and that the diagnostic information may be used for any
purpose. See theSYNC®chapter for more information.
Event Data Recording
This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR).
The main purpose of an EDR is to record, in certain crash or near
crash-like situations, such as an airbag deployment or hitting a
road obstacle; this data will assist in understanding how a
vehicle’s systems performed. The EDR is designed to record data
related to vehicle dynamics and safety systems for a short period
of time, typically 30 seconds or less. The EDR in this vehicle is
designed to record such data as:
•How various systems in your vehicle were operating;
•Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were
buckled/fastened;
•How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator
and/or the brake pedal;
•How fast the vehicle was travelling;
•Where the driver was positioning the steering wheel.
This data can help provide a better understanding of the
circumstances in which crashes and injuries occur.

Optional Settings
You can configure MyKey settings when you first create a MyKey.
You can also change the settings afterward with an admin key.
The following settings can be configured using an admin key:
•Set various vehicle speed limits. Warnings will be shown in the display
followed by an audible tone when your vehicle reaches the set speed.
You cannot override the set speed by fully depressing the accelerator
pedal.
•Set various vehicle speed reminders. Warnings will be shown in the
display followed by an audible tone when the set vehicle speed is
exceeded.
•Audio system maximum volume of 45%. A message will be shown
in the display when you attempt to exceed the limited volume.
Automatic volume control will be disabled.
•Always on setting. When this is selected, you will not be able to
disable Advance Trac, 911 Assist or the do not disturb feature
(if your vehicle is equipped).
CREATING A MYKEY
Use the information display to create a MyKey:
1. Insert the key you want to program into the ignition. If your vehicle
is equipped with a push-button start and you have a backup slot, put
the intelligent access key in the backup slot. If your vehicle does not
have a backup slot, hold your intelligent access key fob next to the
steering column. See theStarting and Stopping the Enginechapter
for the proper key fob placement.
2. Turn the ignition on.
3. From the main menu within the information display, pressOKor the
>button to navigate through the various screens. SelectSettings
and thenMyKey.
4. PressOKor the>button to selectCreate.
5. When prompted, hold theOKbutton until you see a message
informing you to label this key as a MyKey. The key will be restricted
at your vehicle’s next start.
After the key is successfully programmed, make sure you label it so you
can distinguish it from the admin keys.
You can also program optional settings for the key(s). Refer to
Programming/Changing Optional Settings.

Note:When you view your MyKey system status, either the number of
MYKEY(S) PROGRAMMED or ADMIN KEYS PROGRAMMED may include
your unlicensed remote start system in the total count. See the
Checking MyKey System Statussection.
For all vehicles with an unlicensed, non-Ford-approved aftermarket
remote start installed, it is possible to program all keys as MyKeys.
In this case, you will need to use your remote start system to remove all
restrictions and return the key or intelligent access key to its admin key
status by doing the following:
•Enter the vehicle and close all doors.
•Start your vehicle with your remote start.
•See theClearing All MyKeyssection and follow Steps 1–3.
