settings go to Step 2 in the Programming MyKey威 optional settings
section. If your vehicle is equipped with remote start, see the Using
MyKey威 with remote start systems section.
Note: All MyKeys威 can be cleared within the same key cycle that it was
created, otherwise an admin key is required to clear the MyKey威
programming. To clear all MyKeys威 go to Step 2 in the Clear MyKey威
section.

Check MyKey威 system status
The vehicle’s message center information menu will provide the status of
the following MyKey威 parameters:
• MYKEY MILES (km) — This odometer only tracks distance when a
MyKey威 is used. If distance does not accumulate as expected, then
the MyKey威 is not being used by the intended user. The only way to
reset this odometer to zero is by clearing MyKey威. If this odometer is
lower than the last time you checked, then the MyKey威 system has
been recently cleared.
• # MYKEY(S) PROGRAMMED — Indicates how many MyKeys威 are
programmed to the vehicle. Can be used to detect deletion of a
MyKey威.
