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 MyKeysettings
• clear all MyKey features.
When you have programmed 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 a MyKey.
Note: All MyKeys are programmed to
the same settings. You cannot program
them individually.
Note: For vehicles with intelligent
access with push-button start, when
both a MyKey and an admin intelligent
access key fob are present, the admin
fob will be recognized by the vehicle
while switching the ignition on to start
the vehicle.
Non-configurabl e Settings
The following settings cannot be
changed by an admin key user: • Belt-Minder. You cannot disable
this feature. The audio system will
mute when the front seat
occupants’ safety belts are not
fastened.
• Early low fuel. 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, blind spot information
system (BLIS) with cross traffic
alert, lane departure warning and
forward collision warning system.
Configurabl e Settings
With an admin key, you can configure
certain MyKey settings when you first
create a MyKey and before you recycle
the key or restart the vehicle. You can
also change the settings afterward
with 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
cruise control.
• Vehicle speed minders of 45, 55 or 65 mph (75, 90 or 105 km/h).
Once you select a speed, it will be
shown in the display, followed by
an audible tone when the
preselected vehicle speed is
exceeded.

• Audio system maximum volumeof 45%. A message will be shown
in the display when you attempt
to exceed the limited volume. Also,
the speed-sensitive or
compensated automatic volume
control will be disabled.
• Always on setting. When this is selected, you will not be able to
turn off Advance Trac (if your
vehicle is equipped with this
feature).
CREATING A MYKEY
Use the information display to create
a MyKey:
1. Insert the key you want to program
into the ignition. If your vehicle is
equipped with a push-button start,
place the intelligent access key fob
into the backup slot. The location of
your backup slot is in another chapter.
See Starting and Stopping the
Engine (page 151).
2. Switch the ignition on.
3. Access the main menu on the

5. When prompted, hold the OK
button until you see a message
informing you to label this key as a
MyKey. The key will be restricted at
the next start. MyKey is successfully created. Make
sure you label it so you can distinguish
it from the admin keys.
You can also program configurable
settings for the key(s). See
Programming/Changing
Configurable Settings.

information display. The vehicle
speed will gradually change to the
selected speed.
• Press and release SET+ or SET-. The set speed will change in
approximately 1 mph (2 km/h)
increments.
The system may apply the brakes to
slow the vehicle to the new set speed.
The set speed will display
continuously in the information
display while the system is active.

Note: Only use resume if you are
aware of the set speed and intend to
return to it.
Press and release RES. The vehicle
will return to the previously set speed.
The set speed will display
continuously in the information
display while the system is active.
Low Speed Automatic
Cancellation
The system is not functional at vehicle
speeds below 12 mph (20 km/h). An
audible alarm will sound and the
automatic braking releases if the
vehicle drops below this speed.
Hilly Condition Usage
Note: An audible alarm will sound and
the system will shut down if it is
applying brakes for an extended period
of time. This allows the brakes to cool
down. The system will function
normally again when the brakes have
cooled down.
You should select a lower gear
position when the system is active in
situations such as prolonged downhill
driving on steep grades, for example
in mountainous areas. The system
needs additional engine braking in
these situations to reduce the load on
the vehicle’s regular brake system to
prevent them from overheating.
Switching the System Off
Note: The set speed memory erases
when you switch off the system.
Press and release OFF or turn off the
ignition.
Detection Issues
The radar sensor has a limited field of
vision. It may not detect vehicles at all
or detect a vehicle later than expected
in some situations. The lead vehicle
graphic will not illuminate if the
system does not detect a vehicle in
front of you.
203
Cruise Control

The system detects unintentional
drifting toward the outside of the lane
and alerts and/or aids the driver to
stay in the lane through the steering
system and instrument cluster display.
The system automatically detects and
tracks the road lane markings using a
camera that is mounted behind the
interior rear view mirror.
Switching the System On and
Off
Note:The system on or off setting is
stored until it is manually changed,
unless a MyKey® is detected. If a
MyKey® is detected, the system is
defaulted to on and the mode is set to
Alert.
Note: If a MyKey® is detected,
pressing the button will not affect the
on or off status of the system. Only the
Mode and Intensity settings can be
changed when a MyKey® is present.
E144813
Press the button located on
the left steering wheel stalk
to switch the system on or
off.
System Settings
The system has two optional setting
menus available. To view or adjust
them, select Settings > Driver Assist
> Lane Keeping Sys in the information
display using the OK button on the
steering wheel. The last-known
selection for each of these settings is
stored by the system. You do not need
to readjust your settings each time
you turn on the system. Mode: This setting allows the driver
to select which of the system features
will be enabled.
E165515
Alert only – Provides a steering wheel
vibration when an unintended lane
departure is detected.

Driving Aids

• the vehicle is in a dynamicmaneuver
• the road has no or poor lane markings in the camera
field-of-view
• the camera is obscured or unable to detect the lane markings due to
environmental conditions (e.g.
significant sun angles or shadows,
snow, heavy rain, fog), traffic
conditions (e.g. following a large
vehicle that is blocking or
shadowing the lane), or vehicle
conditions (e.g. poor headlamp
illumination).
See Troubleshooting for additional
information. Green: Indicates that the system is
available or ready to provide a
warning or intervention, on the
indicated side(s).
Yellow: Indicates that the system is
providing or has just provided a lane
keeping aid intervention.
Red: Indicates that the system is
providing or has just provided a lane
keeping alert warning.
The system can be temporarily
suppressed at any time by the
following:
• Quick braking
• Fast acceleration
• Using the turn signal indicator
• Evasive steering maneuver
Troubleshooting
Why is the feature not available (line markings are gray) when I can see the lane markings on the road?
Vehicle speed is outside the operational range of the feature
Sun is shining directly into the camera lens
Quick intentional lane change
Staying too close to the lane marking
Driving at high speeds in curves
Previous feature activation happened within the last one second
Ambiguous lane markings (mainly in construction zones)
Rapid transition from light to dark or vice versa
Sudden offset in lane markings
ABS or AdvanceTrac activation

Driving Aids

BREAKING-IN
You need to break in new tires for
approximately 300 miles (480
kilometers). During this time, your
vehicle may exhibit some unusual
driving characteristics.
Avoid driving too fast during the first
1000 miles (1600 kilometers). Vary
your speed frequently and change up
through the gears early. Do not labor
the engine.
Do not tow during the first 1000 miles
(1600 kilometers).
ECONOMICAL DRIVING
Fuel economy is affected by several
things such as how you drive, the
conditions you drive under and how
you maintain your vehicle.
There are some things to keep in mind
that may improve your fuel economy:
• Accelerate and slow down in asmooth, moderate fashion.
• Drive at steady speeds.
• Anticipate stops; slowing down may eliminate the need to stop.
• Combine errands and minimize stop-and-go driving.
• When running errands, go tothe furthest destination first
and then work your way back
home.
• Close the windows for high-speed driving. • Drive at reasonable speeds.
(Traveling at 65 mph/105 kph uses
about 15% less fuel than traveling
at 75 mph/121 kph).
• Keep the tires properly inflated and use only the recommended size.
• Use the recommended engine oil.
• Perform all regularly scheduled maintenance.
There are also some things you may
want to avoid doing because they
reduce your fuel economy:
• Avoid sudden or hard accelerations.
• Avoid revving the engine before turning off the car.
• Avoid long idle periods.
• Do not warm up your vehicle on cold mornings.
• Reduce the use of air conditioning and heat.
• Avoid using speed control in hilly terrain.
• Do not rest your foot on the brake pedal while driving.
• Avoid carrying unnecessary weight (approximately 1 mpg [0.4
kilometers/liter] is lost for every
400 lbs [180 kilograms] of weight
carried).
• Avoid adding particular accessories to your vehicle (e.g.
bug deflectors, rollbars/light bars,
running boards, ski racks).
• Avoid driving with the wheels out of alignment.
