WHAT IS MYKEY
MyKey allows you to program keys with
restricted driving modes to promote good
driving habits.
MYKEY SETTINGS
NON-CONFIGURABLE MYKEY
SETTINGS
Seatbelt Reminder or Belt-
Minder™
MyKey mutes the audio system until the
front seat passengers buckle the front seat
belts.
Note:
If your vehicle includes an AM/FM
radio or a very basic audio system, then the
radio may not mute.
Satellite Radio (If Equipped)
Some Satellite radio channels have
restricted access to adult radio content.
Early Low Fuel
The low fuel level warning lamp turns on
earlier.
Driving and Parking Aids
You cannot configure settings for parking
aids, blind spot information system, and

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 67).
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.

MyKey Distance
Tracks the distance when drivers use a
MyKey. The only way to delete the

not accumulate as expected, then the
intended user is not using the MyKey, or an
admin key user recently cleared and then
recreated a MyKey.

programmed to your vehicle. Use this
feature to detect how many MyKeys you
have for your vehicle and determine when
all MyKeys have been deleted.
Number of Admin Keys
Indicates how many admin keys are
programmed to your vehicle. Use this
feature to determine how many admin
keys you have for your vehicle, and detect
if an additional MyKey has been
programmed.
USING MYKEY WITH REMOTE
