restricted access to adult radio content.

MyKey (page 65).
Speed Limit
WARNING: Do not set MyKey
maximum speed limit to a limit that will

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 is
reduced. A message appears in the
information display if you attempt to
exceed the volume limit. Automatic
volume control turns off.
