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 an administrator key or
admin key. These can be used to:
• create a MyKey
• program optional 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 any MyKey.
Note: All MyKeys are programmed to the
same settings. You cannot program them
individually.
Vehicles with Keyless Entry
If a MyKey and an admin key are present,
your vehicle will recognize the admin key
only.
Note: For vehicles with intelligent access
key (push button start) keyless start, when
both a MyKey and an admin intelligent
access key (fob) are present, the admin fob
will be recognized by the vehicle to start the
engine.
Non-configurable Settings
The following settings cannot be changed:
• Belt-minder. You cannot disable this
feature. The audio system will mute
when the front seat occupants' safety
belts are not fastened.
• Low fuel level warning. The low fuel
warning is activated earlier, giving the
MyKey user more time to refuel.
• Driver assist features, if equipped on
your vehicle, are forced on: parking aid,
blind spot information system (BLIS®)
with cross traffic alert, lane departure
warning, Forward collision warning
system.
• Satellite radio adult content
restrictions.
Configurable Settings
You can configure MyKey settings when
you first create a MyKey before you recycle
the key or restart the engine. You can also
change the settings afterward with an
admin key.
These settings can be configured
immediately after a MyKey is first created
or changed afterward with an Admin key
before you recycle the key or restart the
engine:
• Vehicle speed limits 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.
• Vehicle speed minders of 45, 55 or 65
mph (75, 90 or 105 km/h). Once you
select a speed it will be shown in the
display followed by an audible tone
when the set vehicle speed is
exceeded.
