PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
MyKey allows you to program keys with
restricted driving modes to promote good
driving habits. Program all but one of the
keys to activate the restricted modes.
Any keys that remain unprogrammed are
referred to as administrator keys or admin
keys. They can be used to:
•
create a MyKey
• program optional MyKey settings
• clear all MyKey features.
Once you program a MyKey, you can
access the following information through
the information display to learn:
• The number of admin keys and MyKeys
programmed to your vehicle.
• The total distance your vehicle traveled
with a MyKey.
Note: Switch the ignition on to use the
system.
Note: All MyKeys are programmed to the
same settings. You cannot program them
individually.
Note: In vehicles equipped with the
intelligent access key (push-button start):
When both a MyKey and an admin fob are
present, your vehicle will recognize the
admin fob to start the engine.
Standard Settings
The following settings cannot be changed:
• Belt-Minder. You cannot disable this
feature. With a MyKey, the five-minute
timer does not expire and the audio
system mutes.
• Early low fuel. The low-fuel warning
activates earlier, giving MyKey users
more time to refuel. •
Driver assist features, if equipped, are
forced on: Rear parking aid, blind spot
information system (BLIS) with cross
traffic alert, lane keeping system and
collision warning system.
• Satellite radio adult content
restrictions activate.
Optional Settings
You can configure MyKey settings while
programming a MyKey or change them
while using an admin key.
• Vehicle speed limit: You can set various
vehicle speed limits of 65, 70, 75 and
80 mph (105, 113, 121 and 130 km/h) so
that drivers receive visual warnings and
an audible tone when they reach the
selected top speed.
• Vehicle speed minders: You can set
various vehicle speed minders of 45,
55 or 65 mph (75, 90, or 105 km/h) so
that drivers receive visual warnings and
an audible tone when they exceed the
preselected vehicle speed limit.
• Audio system maximum volume limit:
You can limit the audio system's
maximum output to 45% and disable
the speed-sensitive compensated
volume feature. The audio system
displays a message when drivers
attempt to exceed the volume limit.
• Always on setting: Certain driving aids
cannot be disabled or turned off when
drivers use a MyKey, such as
AdvanceTrac, 911 Assist or the Do not
disturb feature (if your vehicle is
equipped with these features).
Vehicles with Keyless Entry
If a MyKey and an admin key are present
within the vehicle at the same time, your
vehicle will recognize the admin key only.
