this key as a MyKey. The key will be
restricted at the next start.
MyKey is successfully created. Make sure
you label it so you can distinguish it from the
admin keys.
You can also program configurable settings
for the key(s). See Programming/Changing
Configurable Settings
.
Programming/Changing Configurable
Settings
Use the information display to access your
configurable MyKey settings. 1.
Switch the ignition on using an admin key

3. Use the arrow buttons to get to a feature.
4. Press
OK or > to make a selection.
Note: You can clear or change your MyKey
settings at any time during the same key
cycle as you created the MyKey. Once you
have switched the vehicle off, however, you
will need an admin key to change or clear
your MyKey settings.

Memory Feature
You can save and recall the steering column
position with the memory function. See
Memory Function (page 145).
Pressing the adjustment control during
memory recall cancels the operation. The
column responds to the adjustment control.
The steering column sets a stopping position
just short of the end of the column position
to prevent damage to the steering column.
A new stopping position sets if the steering
column encounters an object when tilting or
telescoping.
To reset the steering column to its normal
stopping position:
1. Press the steering column control again after encountering the new stopping
position.
2. Continue pressing the control until it reaches the end of the column position.
A new stopping position is set. The next time
you tilt or telescope the steering column, it
will stop just short of the end of the column
position. Easy Entry and Exit Feature
When you switch the ignition off, the steering
column will move to the full up position to
allow extra room to exit your vehicle. The
column will return to the previous setting
when you switch the ignition on. You can
enable or disable this feature in the
information display.

AUTOLAMPS (If Equipped)
WARNING
The daytime running lamps system
does not activate the tail lamps and
may not provide adequate lighting during
low visibility driving conditions. Also, the
autolamps switch position may not activate
the headlamps in all low visibility conditions,
such as daytime fog. Always ensure that your
headlamps are switched to auto or on, as
appropriate, during all low visibility
conditions. Failure to do so may result in a
collision. When the lighting control is in the autolamps
position, the headlamps will automatically
turn on in low light situations or when wipers
activate.
If equipped, the following also activate when
the lighting control is in the autolamps
position and you switch them on in the
information display:
•
Configurable daytime running lamps.
• Automatic high beam control.
• Adaptive headlamp control.
The headlamps remain on for a period of
time after you switch the ignition off. Use the
information display controls to adjust the
period of time that the headlamps remain
on.
See Information Displays (page 112).
Note: With the headlamps in the autolamps
position, you cannot switch the high beam
headlamps on until the autolamps system
turns the headlamps on. Note:
If the lighting control switch is in the
autolamps position and the headlamps are
off, the parking lamps will light as signature
lighting. If the headlamps are on, or the
lighting control switch is in the parking lamps
position, the parking lamps will not light as
signature lighting.
Windshield Wiper Activated Headlamps
The windshield wiper activated headlamps
turn on within 10 seconds when you switch
the windshield wipers on and the lighting
control switch is in the autolamps position.
They will turn off approximately 60 seconds
after you switch the windshield wipers off.
The headlamps will not turn on by wiper
activation:
• During a mist wipe.
• When the wipers are on to clear washer
fluid during a wash condition.
• If the wipers are in intermittent mode.
Note: If you have autolamps and autowipers
switched on, the low beam headlamps will
turn on automatically when the windshield
wipers operate continuously.

MKC (TME), enUSA LightingE142451

Type 2 - Configurable
Note:
If this type is equipped, you are able
to switch the daytime running lamps on or
off using the information display controls.
See Information Displays (page 112).
When the daytime running lamps are
switched on in the information display and
you switch the ignition to the on position with
the lighting control in the autolamps position,
the daytime running lamps turn on whenever
the headlamps are off.
The other lighting control switch positions
do not activate the daytime running lamps
and can be used to temporarily override
autolamp control.
When switched off in the information display,
the daytime running lamps are off in all
lighting control switch positions. AUTOMATIC HIGH BEAM
CONTROL
(If Equipped)
The system will automatically turn on your
high beams if it is dark enough and no other
traffic is present. When it detects the
headlights of an approaching vehicle, the tail
lamps of the preceding vehicle or street
lighting, the system will turn off the high
beams before they distract other drivers. The
low beams remain on.
Note: If it appears that automatic control of
the high beams is not functioning properly,
check the windshield in front of the camera
for a blockage. A clear view of the road is
required for proper system operation. Have
any windshield damage in the area of the
camera ’s field-of-view repaired.
Note: If the system detects a blockage such
as bird droppings, bug splatter, snow or ice,
and you do not observe changes, the system
will go into low beam mode until you clear
the blockage. A message may also appear
in the instrument cluster display noting the
front camera is blocked. Note:
Typical road dust, dirt and water spots
will not affect the performance of the
automatic high beam system . However, in
cold or inclement weather conditions, you
will notice a decrease in the availability of
the high beam system, especially at start up.
If you want to change the beam state
independently of the system, you may switch
the high beams on or off using the
multifunction switch. Automatic control will
resume when conditions are correct.
Note: Modification of the vehicle ride height
such as using much larger tires, may
degrade feature performance.
A camera sensor, centrally mounted behind
the windshield of your vehicle, continuously
monitors conditions to decide when to switch
the high beams off and on.
Once the system is active, the high beams
will switch on if:
• the ambient light level is low enough
• there is no traffic in front of the vehicle
• the vehicle speed is greater than 25 mph
(40 km/h)
