Driving and Parking Aids
You cannot configure settings for parking
aids, blind spot information system, and
cross traffic alert. These systems turn on
when the vehicle turns on, and you cannot
switch them off with a MyKey.
You cannot configure settings for
pre-collision assist and lane keeping. These
systems turn on when the vehicle turns on,
but you can switch them off with a MyKey.
A new destination in the navigation system
can only be set using voice commands
when using a MyKey, and with your vehicle
moving. Note:
MyKey drivers may be able to switch
the lane departure warning feature off, but
this feature turns back on automatically
with every new key cycle.
CONFIGURABLE MYKEY
SETTINGS
You can configure the following settings
after creating a MyKey. See
Creating a
MyKey (page 100).
Speed Limit 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.
You can set a speed limit for your vehicle.
Warning messages appear in the
information display and a tone sounds if
your vehicle reaches the set speed. You
cannot override the set speed when using
a MyKey.
Speed Minder
You can set a speed reminder for your
vehicle. Warning messages appear in the
information display and a tone sounds if
your vehicle exceeds the set speed.
Audio System Volume Limit
The audio system maximum volume
reduces. A message appears in the
information display if you attempt to
exceed the volume limit. Automatic
volume control turns off.
