Configurable 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
engine. 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 volume of 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 AdvanceTrac or the do not disturb feature (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 in
the backup slot. The location of your backup slot is in another chapter.
See Starting and Stopping the Engine.
2. Switch the ignition on.
3. Access the main menu on the information display controls, and select
Settings, then MyKey by pressing OK or the > button.
4. Press OK or the > button to select Create MyKey.
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). Refer to
Programming/Changing Configurable Settings.
