The system allows you to program keyswith restricted driving modes to promotegood driving habits. You can use all but oneof the keys programmed to your vehiclewith these restricted modes.
Any keys that have not been programmedare referred to as an administrator key oradmin key. These can be used to:
•create a MyKey
•program optional MyKey settings
•clear all MyKey features.
When you have programmed a MyKey, youcan access the following information usingthe information display:
•How many admin keys and MyKeys areprogrammed to your vehicle.
•The total distance your vehicle hastraveled using a MyKey.
Note:Switch the ignition on to use thesystem.
Note:All MyKeys are programmed to thesame settings. You cannot program themindividually.
Standard Settings
The following settings cannot be changed:
•Safety belt minder. You cannot disablethis feature. The audio system willmute when this feature is activated.
•Early low fuel or charge. The low-fuelor low charge warning activates earlier,giving the MyKey user more time torefuel or recharge.
•Driver assist features, for examplenavigation, parking aids and Blind SpotInformation System (BLIS) with crosstraffic alert. These systems turn onautomatically whenever you switch theignition on.
Optional Settings
You can configure MyKey settings whenyou first create a MyKey. You can alsochange the settings afterward with anadmin key.
The following settings can be configuredusing an admin key:
•Various vehicle speed limits can be set.Warnings will be shown in the displayfollowed by an audible tone when yourvehicle reaches the set speed. Youcannot override the set speed by fullydepressing the accelerator pedal or bysetting cruise control.
•Various vehicle speed reminders canbe set. Warnings will be shown in thedisplay followed by an audible tonewhen the set vehicle speed isexceeded.
•Audio system maximum volume of45%. A message will be shown in thedisplay when you attempt to exceedthe limited volume. Automatic volumecontrol will be disabled.
•Always on setting. When this isselected you will not be able to switchoff Advance Trac, traction control,emergency assistance or the do notdisturb feature.
Vehicles with Keyless Entry
If a MyKey and an admin key are present,your vehicle will recognize the admin keyonly.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
The traction control system helps avoiddrive wheel spin and loss of traction.
If your vehicle begins to slide, the systemapplies the brakes to individual wheelsand, when needed, reduces engine powerat the same time. If the wheels spin whenaccelerating on slippery or loose surfaces,the system reduces engine power in orderto increase traction.
USING TRACTION CONTROL
The system automatically turns on eachtime you switch the ignition on.
Note:In some situations for example if yourvehicle is stuck in snow or mud, turning thesystem off may be beneficial as this allowsthe wheels to spin with full engine power.
Switching the System Off and OnUsing the Information DisplayControls
Your vehicle comes with this featurealready enabled. If required, you can switchthis feature off using the informationdisplay controls. See GeneralInformation (page 86).
Stability control will remain on even whenyou have switched the traction control off.
Switching the System Off and OnUsing the Button (If Equipped)
The button is located in the instrumentpanel.
Press the button. You will see a messagein conjunction with an illuminated icon inthe display. Press the button again toreturn the system to normal mode.
Stability control will remain on even whenyou have switched the traction control off.

WARNING
The system does not relieve you ofyour responsibility to drive with duecare and attention. Failure to do socould result in loss of vehicle control,personal injury or death.
Without ESPA
With ESPB
The system supports stability when yourvehicle starts to slide away from yourintended path. The system performs thisby braking individual wheels and reducingengine torque as required.
The system also provides an enhancedtraction control function by reducingengine torque if the wheels spin when youaccelerate. This improves your ability topull away on slippery roads or loosesurfaces, and improves comfort by limitingwheel spin in hairpin bends.

While driving, it flashes when the systemis operating. See Warning Lamps andIndicators (page 81).
