System Operation: MyKey®

The MyKey® feature allows the customer to program a restricted driving mode that is tied to one or more keys known as a MyKey® key. When a MyKey® programmed key is in use, the IPC provides the following:

• At the beginning of vehicle start up, as part of the welcome strategy, the message center greets the MyKey® driver with MYKEY ACTIVE DRIVE SAFELY displayed in the message center. If the MyKey® speed limiter feature is turned on, the message center also displays SPEED LIMITED TO 130 KM/H (80 MPH).
• The IPC provides a periodic Belt-Minder® warning chime until the driver and passenger safety belts are buckled. When the Belt-Minder® is issued, the ACM is muted and the message center displays BUCKLE UP TO UNMUTE AUDIO.
• If the MyKey® speed limiter feature is turned on and the vehicle speed approaches 130 km/h (80 mph), the message center displays VEHICLE NEAR TOP SPEED, along with a chime.
• If the MyKey® speed limiter feature is turned on and the vehicle speed reaches 130 km/h (80 mph), the message center displays VEHICLE AT TOP SPEED, along with a chime.
• If the speed warning is selected at one of the preset values (75, 90, 105 km/h [45, 55, 65 mph]) and the vehicle approaches the preset speed, the message center displays CHECK SPEED DRIVE SAFELY, along with a chime.
• If the traction control always on feature is turned on and the MyKey® driver attempts to disable the traction control, the message center displays ADVANTRAK CANNOT BE DEACTIVATED.
• At 1/8 tank of remaining fuel, the IPC illuminates the low fuel indicator and the message center displays the appropriate DTE, along with a chime.
• MyKey® miles driven by the MyKey® user can be found in the information display.
• The number of MyKey® programmed and administrator keys can be found in the information display.

When an administrator key is in use, the IPC provides the following:

• The message center provides a menu guiding the user to create a MyKey®. When only 1 administrator key remains, the MyKey® creation menu is no longer available.
• The message center provides menus for setting 4 optional MyKey® features:
  • MyKey® 130 KM/H (80 MPH) speed limiter
  • MyKey® pre-selected speed warning
  • MyKey® radio volume limiter
  • Traction control on/off
• The message center provides a menu to clear all MyKey® programmed keys at once. MyKey® information can be accessed by an administrator key or a MyKey® key.
• MyKey® mileage driven by the MyKey® user can be found in the information tab of the message center.
• The number of MyKey® programmed keys and administrator keys can be found in the system check function of the message center.
