Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) - System Operation and Component Description: 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. The following features are provided by the IPC when a MyKey® key is being used:

• 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 the MyKey® administrator selected top speed setting message. The MyKey® top speed selections are; 105, 110, 120 or 130 km/h (65, 70, 75, or 80 mph) or to the administrator desired setpoint.
• The IPC provides a periodic Belt-Minder® warning chime until the driver and passenger seatbelts 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 the selected top speed (100, 110, 120 or 130 km/h [60, 70, 75, or 80 mph]), the message center displays NEAR VEHICLE TOP SPEED along with a chime.
• If the MyKey® speed limiter feature is turned on and the vehicle speed reaches the selected top speed (105, 110, 120 or 130 km/h [65, 70, 75, or 80 mph]), the message center displays TOP SPEED MYKEY SETTING 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.
• At approximately 1/8 tank of remaining fuel, the IPC illuminates the low fuel message center indicator and the message center displays FUEL LEVEL LOW along with a chime.
• Traction control, Emergency Assist feature and the Do Not Disturb feature can be set to always on or user selectable in the MyKey® menu.
• If the traction control always on feature is turned on and the MyKey® driver attempts to disable the traction control, the message center displays ADVANCETRAC ON MYKEY SETTING.

The following features are provided in the message center display when a MyKey® key is being used:

• MyKey® miles driven by the MyKey® user can be found in the information display.
