ASKED QUESTIONS
How can I tell if my vehicle has Phone as a
Key?
The touchscreen shows the Phone as a
Key reset option if your vehicle has
Phone as a Key. If you have registered
your vehicle through the Lincoln Way
app, a control button appears on the
home screen of the Lincoln Way app.What happens if I cannot unlock the vehicle
with Phone as a Key?
Attempt to move your phone closer to
the vehicle. Check that the Lincoln Way
app is still running and that the Phone
as a Key control screen shows
connected. If the phone is connected,
attempt to press the remote unlock
button in the Lincoln Way app. If the
phone is not connected or the remote
unlock button does not work in the
Lincoln Way app, attempt to force close
and restart the app.
Why do I get a No Key Detected message
in the instrument cluster display when I am
using Phone as a Key and my phone is in
the car?
Your phone’s Bluetooth connection has
been disrupted or is not connected. Try
reconnecting your phone's Bluetooth
connection. Move the phone closer to
the center of the vehicle near the cup
holder or center console. Verify your
Phone as a Key is still active, enabled
and has not been revoked.

Note:Not every feature applies to every
vehicle in every market. When they are
available for your vehicle, then they appear
in the information display, providing choices
to switch them on or off, or to select a more

• Various vehicle speed limits so the
MyKey driver cannot exceed certain
speeds. The information display shows
warnings followed by an audible tone
when the MyKey driver reaches the set
speed. You cannot override the set
speed by fully depressing the accelerator
pedal.
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.• Various vehicle speed reminders so
MyKey drivers know when their vehicle
speed approaches the limits. Warnings
appear in the information display and a
tone sounds when the MyKey drivers
exceed the set vehicle speed.
• The audio system's maximum volume
limits to 45% so MyKey drivers can
concentrate on the road. A message
appears in the information display when
MyKey drivers attempt to exceed the
limited volume. MyKey also disables the
automatic volume control. Note: If your
vehicle includes an AM/FM radio or a
very basic audio system, then the radio
may not limit.

certain features to remain on and active
for MyKey drivers. For example, E911 or
emergency assistance and the do not
disturb features stay on even if a MyKey
driver uses the feature's control to switch
it off. When selected, you will not be able
to turn off Advance Trac or traction
control (if your vehicle has this feature).

LOCKING AND UNLOCKING
Your vehicle has an intelligent electronically
controlled door system that is in constant
communication with overall vehicle systems.
When you lock your vehicle using either the
lock switch on each door interior trim panel,
the keyless entry keypad or the lock sensor

do not release the doors.

switch activates, all interior and exterior
