PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
MyKey allows you to program keys with
restricted driving modes to promote good
driving habits. All but one of the keys
programmed to the vehicle can be
activated with these restricted modes.
Any keys that have not been programmed
are referred to as administrator keys or
admin keys. These can be used to:
•
Create a MyKey.
• Program configurable MyKey settings.
• Clear all MyKey features.
When you have programmed a MyKey, you
can access the following information using
the information display:
• How many admin keys and MyKeys are
programmed to your vehicle.
• The total distance your vehicle has
traveled using a MyKey.
Note: All MyKeys are programmed to the
same settings. You cannot program them
individually.
Note: For vehicles with push-button start,
when both a MyKey and an admin remote
transmitter are present, the admin remote
transmitter will be recognized by the vehicle
while switching the ignition on to start the
vehicle.
Non-configurable Settings
The following settings cannot be changed
by an admin key user: •
Seat belt reminder or Belt Minder. 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.
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 vehicle. 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. 52

•
Various vehicle speed minders can be
set. Once you select a speed, it will be
shown in the display, followed by an
audible tone when the preselected
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. Also, the
speed-sensitive or compensated
automatic volume control will be
disabled.
• Always on setting. When this is
selected, you will not be able to turn
off Advance Trac or traction control (if
your vehicle is equipped with this
feature).
CREATING A MYKEY

Trip Summary:
The Trip Summary displays upon shutting
off your vehicle. The information is
cumulative over the last trip. A new trip
begins each time you start your vehicle
(when the Ready to Drive message comes
on).
•
Distance - Displays the total distance
traveled, distance traveled on battery
power only (EV distance) and Regen
distance. Regen distance is the
estimated range gained from energy
recaptured through regenerative
braking.
• Energy Use - Displays the average fuel
economy. In addition for Energi,
displays the total electrical energy used
while in Plug-in Power Mode in kilowatt
hours (kWh).
• Brake Score - The percent displayed is
an indication of the regenerative
braking efficiency for the trip.
Note: Corresponding trip efficiency leaves
appear on the right information display upon
shutting off your Hybrid vehicle. On Energi
vehicles the trip efficiency leaves are shown
on the right information display when the
vehicle operates in Hybrid Mode for the
entire trip. For trips with Plug-in Power Mode
operation an estimate of your EV Range/Full
Charge is provided along with a listing of
factors and their contributions to this
estimate. See Next Full Charge under Right
Information Display in this chapter.

Vehicle Range
Vehicle range indicates the estimated
distance your vehicle will travel with the
energy currently onboard. The range is
displayed at the bottom of the screen with
gasoline range shown in white and electric
range (Energi only) shown in blue.
• Gasoline Range: Is the estimated
distance to empty based on the fuel
remaining in the tank.
• Electric Range: Is the estimated
distance you can travel in Plug-In
Power Mode with the engine off. This
range is based on a calculation
determined by the amount of energy
stored in the high voltage battery as a
result of charging while plugged in and
the energy being used while driving.
The amount of energy being used while
driving is affected by:
• Mild or aggressive acceleration or
braking.
• Your vehicle speed.
• Your use of accessories such as climate
control.
• The ambient temperature and other
weather conditions.
• City or highway driving.
• Road grades.
Note: It is normal for vehicle range
estimates to vary due to changes in average
energy usage. This is why you will typically
see different range estimates each time you
fill up your fuel tank or fully charge your
battery.

Efficiency Leaves
Efficiency leaves indicate short term driving
efficiency measured over the last few
minutes. The more leaves and vines that
appear on the display, the better your fuel
economy. Leaves and vines will
occasionally appear and disappear to
indicate a change in your driving efficiency.
Fuel History
From left to right this view includes an
instantaneous fuel economy gauge,
historical fuel economy data and average
fuel economy. The historical data
represents an average over time intervals
of either 1, 2 or 6 minutes, with the leftmost
interval being the most recent. Shown at
the bottom of the view is the total time
duration for the 5 intervals. You can select
total duration in the options menu.
Intervals shown in grey color are from the
previous drive. The blue horizontal line
represents the average fuel economy value
shown to the right.
Note:
Hold OK to reset fuel history and
average fuel economy.
Coach
This view provides a comparison of your
recent acceleration, braking and cruising
behavior, then recommends the most
efficient use of energy under present
conditions. The horizontal bars fill from left
to right with best behavior and appear blue
when at least half full. When the bars are
less than half full, the color is amber,
suggesting that you need a change in your
driving behavior to achieve better energy
efficiency.
Note: Fuel Economy will be impacted by
your use of brakes, accelerator and
accessories, as well as environmental
conditions such as hills and weather. Note:
Fuel economy is not always a
measure of appropriate driving behavior. For
example, when driving uphill and
maintaining an appropriate speed, your
instant fuel economy may not be good
(losing leaves) but the Coach may show a
blue bar for Acceleration and Cruising.
Common Displays
Both Average fuel economy and an
instantaneous fuel economy gauge are
included in Engage, Empower, MyView (if
selected) and Fuel Economy (shown in
Hybrid Mode) on the left information
display. They are also included in Fuel
History on the right information display.
Average Fuel Economy
Average Fuel Economy is continuously
averaged since the last reset. You can reset
your average fuel economy by pressing and
holding the
OK button on the
corresponding steering wheel controls. For
Energi vehicles both Hybrid and Plug-in
Power mode operation will be included in
the calculation.
Note: Average fuel economy cannot be
reset in MyView.
Instantaneous Fuel Economy
If your instantaneous fuel economy is
greater than the maximum value
displayed, a + sign will be shown next to
the maximum scale number. When your
vehicle is operating on battery power only,
EV will display and the gauge fill will show
in blue.
