USING THE VALET MODE
1. Press Settings on the touchscreen.
2. Press Valet Mode.
Note: Have your backup start passcode
completely setup before using valet mode. Note:
Once the system detects a valid phone
as a key, the temporary passcode displays
in both the touchscreen and mobile app. If
the system does not detect a valid phone as
a key, it prompts you to enter your backup
start passcode. Once validated, the
temporary passcode displays on the
touchscreen.
3. Enter the first five digits of the passcode
on the keyless entry keypad to lock or
unlock your vehicle.
4. Enter the eight-digit passcode on the touchscreen to start and drive your
vehicle.
To disable valet mode, press Exit Valet Mode

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 75).
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.

the Backup Starting Passcode (page

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 information display to create a
MyKey:
1. Insert the key you want to program into
the ignition. If your vehicle is equipped
with a push-button start, place the remote
control into the backup slot. See Starting
a Gasoline Engine
(page 204).
2. Switch the ignition on.
3. Access the main menu in the information
display and then scroll through the
menus to change the settings of your
MyKey. From the MyKey menu select the
option Create MyKey.
See Information
Displays (page 133).
4. When prompted, hold the OK button until
you see a message informing you to label
this key as a MyKey. The programmed
restrictions apply when you key off, open
and close the driver door and restart your
vehicle with the programmed key or
transmitter.
MyKey is successfully created. Make sure
you label it so you can distinguish it from the
admin keys.

face of each door handle for locking.
The system does not function if:
• Your vehicle battery has no charge.
• The key battery has no charge.
• The key frequencies are jammed.

PASSIVE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM
Note:
The system is not compatible with
aftermarket remote start systems. Use of
these systems may result in vehicle starting
problems and a loss of security protection.
Note: Metallic objects, electronic devices or
a second coded key on the same key chain
may cause vehicle starting problems if they
are too close to the key when starting the
engine. Prevent these objects from touching
the coded key while starting the engine.
Switch the ignition off, move all objects on
the key chain away from the coded key and
restart the engine if a problem occurs.
Note: Do not leave a duplicate coded key
in the vehicle. Always take your keys and
lock all doors when leaving the vehicle. SecuriLock™
The system is an engine immobilization
system. The intended design is to help
prevent the engine from starting unless a
coded key programmed to your vehicle is
used. Using the wrong key may prevent the
engine from starting. A message may appear
in the information display.
If you are unable to start the engine with a
correctly coded key, a malfunction has
happened and a message may appear in the
information display.
Automatic Arming
The vehicle arms immediately after you
switch the ignition off.
Automatic Disarming
If you switch the ignition on with a coded key
you disarm the vehicle. If you unlock the
doors with the touch handle you disarm the
alarm.Replacement Keys
Note:
Your vehicle comes equipped with two
intelligent access keys.
The intelligent access key functions as a
programmed key that operates the driver
door lock and activates the intelligent access
with push button start system, as well as a
remote control.
If your programmed transmitters are lost or
stolen and you do not have an extra coded
key, you will need to have your vehicle
towed to an authorized dealer. You need to
erase the key codes from your vehicle and
program new coded keys.
Store an extra programmed key away from
the vehicle in a safe place to help prevent
any inconveniences. See your authorized
dealer to purchase additional spare or
replacement keys.
