Mykey; Principle Of Operation - Lincoln MKZ Hybrid Owner's Manual

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 an "administrator key" or "admin
key" which can be used to:
• create a restricted key
• program optional MyKey settings
• clear all MyKey features
altogether.
Once a key has been programmed you
can access the following information
using the information display control:
• How many admin keys and MyKeys
are programmed to the vehicle.
• The total distance the vehicle has
been driven with a MyKey.
For vehicles equipped with intelligent
access key (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 to start the engine.
