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 administrator keys or
admin keys. These can be used to:
•
Create a MyKey.
• Program configurable MyKey settings.
• Clear all MyKey features.
When you have created 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: You can only program all MyKeys to
the same settings.
Note: For vehicles with keyless start, when
both a MyKey transmitter and an admin
transmitter are present, the admin
transmitter 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 driver and front seat
passengers’ safety belts are not
fastened.
• Early low-fuel warning. The low-fuel
warning activates earlier, giving the
MyKey user more time to refuel.
• Driver assist features, if equipped on
your vehicle, are forced on: parking aid.
• Satellite radio adult content
restrictions. Configurable Settings 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 configure certain MyKey settings
when you first create a MyKey. You can
also change the settings afterward with
an admin key.
The following settings can be configured
using an admin key:
• A vehicle speed limit 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 or by
setting the cruise control.
• Vehicle speed minders can be set.
Once you select a speed, a visual
warning will be shown in the display
followed by an audible tone when the
set vehicle speed is exceeded.
• Audio system maximum volume of
45%. A message will be shown in the
display when you attempt to exceed
the limited volume. Also, the speed
sensitive compensated volume
(automatic volume control) feature
will be disabled.
• Always on setting. When this is
selected you will not be able to disable
AdvanceTrac, 911 Assist or the do not
disturb feature (if your vehicle is
equipped with these features).

MANUAL LIFTGATE
WARNING: It is extremely dangerous
to ride in a cargo area, inside or outside of
a vehicle. In a crash, people riding in these
areas are more likely to be seriously injured
or killed. Do not allow people to ride in any

with seats and seatbelts. Make sure
everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and
properly using a seatbelt. Failure to follow
this warning could result in serious
personal injury or death. WARNING: Make sure to close and
latch the liftgate to prevent drawing
exhaust fumes into your vehicle. This will
also prevent passengers and cargo from
falling out. If you must drive with the
liftgate open, keep the vents or windows
open so outside air comes into your vehicle.
Failure to follow this warning could result
in serious personal injury.
Note: Be careful when opening or closing
the liftgate in a garage or other enclosed
area to avoid damaging the liftgate.
Note: Do not hang anything, for example
a bike rack, from the glass or liftgate. This

Note: If the system does not function, you
will need to use the key blade to lock and
unlock your vehicle.
The system allows you to operate your
vehicle without the use of a key or remote

valid passive key to be located within one
of the three external detection ranges.
These are located approximately
5 ft
(1.5 m) from the front door handles and
the luggage compartment. Passive Key
Your vehicle can be locked and unlocked

a locking button your vehicle will remain
unlocked.

indicators will flash to confirm your vehicle
has locked and the alarm is armed.
