PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
The system allows you to program keyswith restricted driving modes to promotegood driving habits. All but one of the keysprogrammed to the vehicle can beactivated with these restricted modes.
Any keys that have not been programmedare referred to as administrator keys oradmin keys. These can be used to:
•Create a MyKey.
•Program configurable MyKey settings.
•Clear all MyKey features.
When you have created a MyKey, you canaccess the following information using theinformation display:
•How many admin keys and MyKeys areprogrammed to your vehicle.
•The total distance your vehicle hastraveled using a MyKey.
Note: All MyKeys are programmed to thesame settings. You cannot program themindividually.
Note:For vehicles with keyless start, whenboth a MyKey and an admin key are present,the admin fob will be recognized by thevehicle to start the engine.
Non-configurable Settings
The following settings cannot be changedby an admin key user:
•Seatbelt minder. You cannot disablethis feature. The audio system willmute when the front seat occupants'seatbelts are not fastened.
•Early low fuel. The low-fuel warningactivates earlier, giving the MyKey usermore time to refuel.
•Driver assist features, if equipped onyour vehicle, are forced on: parking aid,blind spot information system (BLIS)with cross traffic alert, lane departurewarning and forward collision warningsystem.
Configurable Settings
WARNING: Do not set MyKeymaximum speed limit to a limit that willprevent the driver from maintaining asafe speed considering posted speedlimits and prevailing road conditions. Thedriver is always responsible to drive inaccordance with local laws andprevailing conditions. Failure to do socould result in accident or injury.
With an admin key, you can configurecertain MyKey settings when you firstcreate a MyKey and before you recycle thekey or restart the vehicle.

KEYLESS ENTRY (IF EQUIPPED)
General Information
Note:The system may not function if thekey is close to metal objects or electronicdevices such as cell phones.
The system will not function if:
•Your vehicle battery has no charge.
•The passive key frequencies arejammed.
•The passive key battery is flat.
Note:If the system does not function, youwill need to use the key blade to lock andunlock your vehicle.
The system allows you to operate yourvehicle without the use of a key or remotecontrol.
Locking and unlocking requires a validintelligent access key to be located withinone of the there external detection ranges.These are located approximately 5 ft (1 m)from the front door handles and from theswing gate handle. You can also use theIntelligent Access key as a remote control.See Locking and Unlocking (page 60).
Locking Using Intelligent Access
Touch the outer door handle lock sensorfor approximately one second to lock,being careful to not touch the unlocksensor on the back of the door handle atthe same time. After locking, you canimmediately pull on the door handle toconfirm locking occurred withoutinadvertently unlocking.

Note:Locking touch surfaces are locatedon each of the front doors.
For central locking and to arm the alarm:
•Touch the locking surface once.
After locking the doors with the locksensor, there is a brief delay before you canunlock your vehicle.
This delay lets you pull the handle to makesure your vehicle is locked.
Note:When the delay period is over, youcan open the doors again, provided theIntelligent Access is within the respectivedetection range.
Two short flashes of the directionindicators confirms that all the doors andswing gate have been locked and that thealarm (if equipped) has been armed.
