PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
MyKey allows you to program keys with
restricted driving modes to promote good
driving habits. All but one of the keys can be
activated with these 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 configurable MyKey settings.
• Clear all MyKey features.
When you have created a MyKey, you can
access the following information by using the
information display to determine:
• How many admin keys and MyKeys are
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:
For vehicles equipped with a
push-button start, when both a MyKey and an
admin key are present, the admin key will be
recognized by the vehicle when you start the
vehicle.
Non-configurable Settings
The following settings cannot be changed by
an admin key user:
• Safety belt reminder. You cannot disable
this feature. The audio system will mute
when the front seat passengers’ safety
belts are not fastened.
• Early low fuel. The low-fuel warning
activates earlier, giving the MyKey user
more time to refuel.
• Driver assist features, if equipped on your
vehicle, are forced on: parking aid,
forward collision warning, lane departure
warning and Blind Spot Information
System (BLIS) with cross traffic alert.
• Satellite radio adult content restrictions,
if equipped on your vehicle. Configurable Settings
With an admin key, you can configure certain
MyKey settings when you first create a MyKey
and before you recycle the key or restart the
engine. You can also change the settings
afterward with an admin key.
•
A vehicle speed limit can be set. 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 or by setting cruise
control. WARNING
Do not set MyKey maximum speed limit
to a limit that will prevent the driver
from maintaining a safe speed
considering posted speed limits and
prevailing road conditions. The driver is
always responsible to drive in accordance
with local laws and prevailing conditions.
Failure to do so could result in accident or
injury. 50

DRIVER ALERT (If Equipped)
WARNING
The driver alert system is designed to
aid you. It is not intended to replace
your attention and judgment. You are
still responsible to drive with due care and
attention. Note:
The system will store the on or off
setting in the information display menu
through ignition cycles.
Note: If enabled in the menu, the system will
be active at speeds above 40 mph (64 km/h).
When below the activation speed, the
information display will inform you that the
system is unavailable.
Note: The system works as long as one lane
marking can be detected by the camera.
Note: If the camera is blocked or if the
windshield is damaged, the system may not
function.
Note: The system may not be available in
poor weather or other low visibility conditions.
The system automatically monitors your
driving behavior using various inputs including
the front camera sensor. If the system detects that your driving
alertness is reduced below a certain
threshold, the system will alert you using a
chime and a message in the information
display.
Using Driver Alert
Switching the system on and off
You may switch the system on or off through
the information display by selecting Settings
then Driver Assist then Driver Alert in the
menu. When activated, the system will
monitor your alertness level based upon your
driving behavior in relation to the lane
markings, and other factors.
System Warnings
Note:
The system will not issue warnings
below approximately
40 mph (64 km/h).
The warning system is in two stages. At first
the system issues a temporary warning that
you need to take a rest. This message will
only appear for a short time. If the system
detects further reduction in driving alertness,
another warning may be issued which will
remain in the information display for a longer
time. Press OK on the steering wheel control
to clear the warning. System Display
When active the system will run
automatically in the background and only
issue a warning if required. You can view the
status at any time using the information
display. See
General Information (page
89).
The alertness level is shown by six steps in a
colored bar. The current assessment of your alertness is
within a typical range.

and one optional setting menu available. To
view or adjust the settings, See General
Information (page 89). The system stores
the last known selection for each of these
settings. You do not need to readjust your
settings each time you turn on the system.
Mode: This setting allows you to select which
of the system features you can enable. Alert only – Provides a steering wheel
vibration when an unintended lane departure
is detected. Aid only – Provides a steering wheel vibration
when the system detects an unintended lane
departure.
Alert
A
AidB
Alert + Aid – Provides an assistance steering
torque input toward the lane center. If your
vehicle continues drifting out of the lane, the
system provides a steering wheel vibration.
Note: The alert and aid diagrams illustrate
general zone coverage. They do not provide
exact zone parameters.
Intensity:
This setting affects the intensity
of the steering wheel vibration used for the
alert and alert + aid modes. This setting does
not affect the aid mode.

UTILIZING THE
MEDIATION/ARBITRATION
PROGRAM (CANADA ONLY)
For vehicles delivered to authorized Canadian
dealers. In those cases where you continue
to feel that the efforts by Ford of Canada and
the authorized dealer to resolve a
factory-related vehicle service concern have
been unsatisfactory, Ford of Canada
participates in an impartial third party
mediation/arbitration program administered
by the Canadian Motor Vehicle Arbitration
Plan (CAMVAP).
The CAMVAP program is a straight forward
and relatively speedy alternative to resolve
a disagreement when all other efforts to
produce a settlement have failed. This
procedure is without cost to you and is
designed to eliminate the need for lengthy
and expensive legal proceedings.
In the CAMVAP program, impartial third-party
arbitrators conduct hearings at mutually
convenient times and places in an informal
environment. These impartial arbitrators
review the positions of the parties, make
decisions and, when appropriate, render
awards to resolve disputes. CAMVAP
decisions are fast, fair, and final as the
arbitrator
’s award is binding on both you and
Ford of Canada.
CAMVAP services are available in all
Canadian territories and provinces. For more
information, without charge or obligation,
call your CAMVAP Provincial Administrator
directly at 1-800-207-0685 or visit
www.camvap.ca.
GETTING ASSISTANCE OUTSIDE
THE U.S. AND CANADA
Before exporting your vehicle to a foreign
country, contact the appropriate foreign
embassy or consulate. These officials can
inform you of local vehicle registration
regulations and where to find unleaded fuel.
If you cannot find unleaded fuel or can only
get fuel with an anti-knock index lower than
is recommended for your vehicle, contact our
Customer Relationship Center. The use of leaded fuel in your vehicle without
proper conversion may damage the
effectiveness of your emission control system
and may cause engine knocking or serious
engine damage. Ford Motor Company or Ford
of Canada is not responsible for any damage
caused by use of improper fuel. Using leaded
fuel may also result in difficulty importing
your vehicle back into the United States.
