MyKey


Help make driving safer for your young drivers. The standard class-exclusive* programmable MyKey™ provides a number of features to help you make driving safer for young drivers. Standard settings – These settings cannot be changed: • Belt-Minder® System cannot be disabled and will not expire (the stereo also gets muted until everyone buckles up)** • The audio system will be muted whenever Belt-Minder is activated • Low-fuel warnings are displayed in the message center followed by a chime when the Distance-to-Empty value reaches 75 miles (120 km) • If equipped, the parking aid, Blind Spot Information System (BLIS™) with cross-traffic alert and forward collision warning cannot be turned off Optional settings – These settings can be changed: • Vehicle speed is limited to 80 mph (130 kmh). Visual warnings and chimes are displayed: • At vehicle start to inform the driver that the vehicle speed is limited to 80 mph (130 kmh) • At 75 mph to warn the driver that the vehicle speed is near the top speed • At 80 mph to warn the driver that the vehicle has reached the top speed • The driver is encouraged to check his/her speed and drive safely via visual warnings and chimes when a preselected vehicle speed of 45, 55 or 65 mph (75, 90, or 105 kmh) is exceeded • The maximum volume of the audio system is limited to 45 percent. • The AdvanceTrac® System cannot be turned off. When this optional setting is on, the MyKey user will not be able to deactivate the system. This prevents the driver from burning the tires, performing doughnuts, etc.
