PHONE AS A KEY –
TROUBLESHOOTING
Phone as a Key – Frequently Asked
Questions
How can I tell if my vehicle has phone as a
key? Once you pair your phone with your
vehicle, the touchscreen display menu
identifies the phone as a key option if it
is available. See Programming Your
Phone (page 70). Why do I get a No Key Detected message
in the instrument cluster display when I am
using phone as a key and my phone is in
the car?
Your phone ’s Bluetooth connection has
been disrupted or is not connected. Try
to reconnect via Bluetooth using the
Lincoln Way app, verify your phone as
a key is still active, enabled and has not
been revoked.
What do I do if my phone is lost, damaged,
or the battery has depleted? Use the backup starting passcode that
you created to protect you in the event
that your phone is lost, damaged, or the
battery has depleted.
See Using the
Backup Start Passcode (page 71).
How many phones can I use for phone as
a key? You can program and activate up to four
phones with phone as a key to your

How does a valet drive my car if I only use
my phone as a key?
Have the valet use the temporary valet
passcode that you created when using
valet mode. See Using the Valet Mode
(page 70).
How do I delete a phone as a key
programmed to my vehicle? If the phone as a key belongs to your
account, you can delete it from your
phone. If not, reset phone as a key from
the touchscreen display menu.
I uninstalled my Lincoln Way app and
reinstalled it. Why am I not able to get a
new phone as a key? Remove the phone as a key that was
previously associated with your phone
or reset phone as a key from your
vehicle, and then request a new phone
as a key. Why can I not remotely start the vehicle
with my phone as a key?
Using the Lincoln Way app, verify your
phone as a key to be active and enabled
via Bluetooth connection on at least one
phone. If Bluetooth has connected but
phone as a key is not active, activate
your phone as a key where prompted
from the Lincoln Way app.

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
MyKey allows you to program keys with
restricted driving modes to promote good
driving habits. You can program the
restrictions to all keys except one. Any keys
that you did not program are administrator
keys or admin keys.
You can use admin keys to:
•
Create a MyKey with certain vehicle
restrictions.
• Program certain MyKey settings.
• Clear all MyKey restrictions.
After you program a MyKey, you can view
the following information through the
information display:
• The total number of admin keys and
MyKeys for your vehicle.
• The total distance a MyKey driver
traveled with your vehicle.
Note: Every MyKey receives the same
restrictions and settings. You cannot
program them individually. Note:
For vehicles equipped with a
push-button start switch: When both a MyKey
and an admin key are present when you
start your vehicle, the system recognizes the
admin key only.
Standard Settings
Not every vehicle includes the features listed
below. If your vehicle has this equipment,
then you cannot change the following
settings when using a MyKey:
• Seatbelt reminder or Belt-Minder™. MyKey
mutes the audio system until drivers, and
in some instances, passengers, fasten
their seatbelts. Note: If your vehicle
includes an AM/FM radio or a very basic
audio system, then the radio may not
mute.
• Earlier low-fuel warning. The low-fuel
warning activates earlier for MyKey
drivers, giving them more time to refuel. •
Certain driver alerts, stability systems or
parking aids turn on automatically when
you use the MyKey system. For example,
Blind Spot Information System (BLIS),
cross traffic alert, lane departure warning
or forward collision warning. Note: MyKey
drivers may be able to turn the lane
departure warning feature off, but this
feature turns back on automatically with
every new key cycle.
• Restricted touchscreen operation in some
markets. For example, MyKey may
prevent manual navigation destination
input while the vehicle is in any gear
other than park (P) or when the vehicle
reaches a certain rate of speed.
• Satellite radio adult content restrictions,
if this feature is available in your market.
Optional Settings
You can configure certain vehicle feature
settings when you first create a MyKey. You
can also change the settings afterward with
an admin key.

Note:
Not every feature applies to every
vehicle in every market. When they are
available for your vehicle, then they appear
in your information display, providing choices
to switch them on or off, or to select a more
specific setting.
• Various vehicle speed limits so the
MyKey driver cannot exceed certain
speeds. The information display shows
warnings followed by an audible tone
when the MyKey driver reaches the set
speed. You cannot override the set
speed by fully depressing the accelerator
pedal. 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. •
Various vehicle speed reminders so
MyKey drivers know when their vehicle
speed approaches the limits. Warnings
appear in your information display and a
tone sounds when the MyKey drivers
exceed the set vehicle speed.
• The audio system's maximum volume
limits to 45% so MyKey drivers can
concentrate on the road. A message
appears in the information display when
MyKey drivers attempt to exceed the
limited volume. MyKey also disables the
automatic volume control.
Note: If your
vehicle includes an AM/FM radio or a
very basic audio system, then the radio
may not limit.
• Always on setting. This setting forces
certain features to remain on and active
for MyKey drivers. For example, E911 or
emergency assistance and the do not
disturb features stay on even if a MyKey
driver uses the feature's control to switch
it off. When selected, you will not be able
to turn off Advance Trac or traction
control (if your vehicle has this feature). CREATING A MYKEY
Use the touchscreen to create a MyKey:
1. Insert the key you want to program into
the ignition. If your vehicle has a
push-button start, place the remote
control into the backup slot. See Starting
a Gasoline Engine
(page 203).
2. Switch the ignition on.
3. Access the main menu in the touchscreen and then scroll through the
menus to change the settings of your
MyKey. From the MyKey menu, select the
option Create MyKey.
See Settings
(page 498).
4. Press Yes if you want to create the key as a MyKey. A confirmation message
appears on the screen.
5. Switch the ignition off.
You have successfully created a MyKey.
Make sure you label it so you can distinguish
it from the admin keys.
You can also program configurable settings
for the key.

Programming and Changing
Configurable Settings
Use the touchscreen to access your
configurable MyKey settings.
1.
Switch the ignition on using an admin key
or the remote control you want to
program.
2. Access the main menu in the information
display and then scroll through the
menus to change the settings of your
MyKey. See Settings (page 498).
3. Follow the instructions in the touchscreen.
The programmed restrictions apply when
you switch the vehicle off, open and close
the driver door and restart your vehicle with
the programmed key or remote control. 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
need an admin key to change or clear your
MyKey settings. When you make any
changes to your MyKey settings, you change
the settings for every MyKey. You cannot
make individual changes to apply to specific
MyKeys.
CLEARING ALL MYKEYS
When you clear your MyKeys, you remove
all restrictions and return all MyKeys to their
original admin key status at once. To clear
all MyKeys of all MyKey settings, use the
touchscreen.
1. Switch the ignition on using an admin key.
2. Access the main menu in the touchscreen and then scroll through the
menus to begin clearing your MyKey
programming. See Settings (page 498).
3. Follow the instructions in the display. 4. A confirmation message appears in the
display after you finish clearing your
MyKeys.
Note: When you clear your MyKeys, you
remove all restrictions and return all MyKeys
to their original admin key status. You cannot
remove the MyKey restrictions individually.
CHECKING MYKEY SYSTEM
STATUS
You can find information about your
programmed MyKeys by using the
touchscreen.
See Settings (page 498).
MyKey Distance
Tracks the distance when drivers use a
MyKey. The only way to delete the
accumulated distance is by using an admin
key to clear all MyKeys. If the distance does
not accumulate as expected, then the
intended user is not using the MyKey, or an
admin key user recently cleared and then
recreated a MyKey.

Number of MyKeys
Indicates the number of MyKeys you have
programmed to your vehicle. Use this feature
to detect how many MyKeys you have for
your vehicle and determine when you have
deleted all MyKeys.
Number of Admin Keys
Indicates how many admin keys you have
programmed to your vehicle. Use this feature
to determine how many admin keys you have
for your vehicle, and detect if an additional
MyKey has been programmed.

Ford-approved, aftermarket remote start
systems. If you choose to install a remote
start system, see an authorized dealer for a
Ford-approved remote start system.
