FORD 2013 F-550 v.1 - Manual (Page 67)

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
MyKey® allows you to program keys with restricted driving modes to
promote good driving habits. All but one of the keys programmed to the
vehicle can be activated with these restricted modes. Any keys that have
not been programmed are referred to as an administrator key or admin
key which can be used to:
• create a restricted key
• program optional MyKey settings
• clear all MyKey features altogether.
Once a key has been programmed, you can access the following
information using the information display control:
• How many admin keys and MyKeys are programmed to the vehicle.
• The total distance the vehicle has been driven with a MyKey.
For vehicles equipped with intelligent access (push button start), when
both a MyKey and an admin intelligent access key (fob) are present, the
admin fob will be recognized by the vehicle to start the engine.
Standard Settings
These settings cannot be changed.
• Belt-Minder. This cannot be disabled and the five–minute timer does not
expire. The audio system is muted when MyKey Belt-Minder is activated.
(Not available in vehicles equipped with AM/FM only audio systems.)
• Early low fuel. Warnings are displayed in the information display control
followed by an audible tone when the fuel tank is at 1/8 tank or less.
• Driver assist features, if equipped on your vehicle, are forced on:
Parking aid, blind spot information system (BLIS) with cross traffic
alert and the collision warning system.
Optional Settings
These settings can be configured right after a MyKey is first created or
changed afterword with an Admin key.
• Vehicle speed limit of 80 mph (130 km/h). Visual warnings are
displayed followed by an audible tone when vehicle speed has reached
80 mph (130 km/h).
• Vehicle speed warning of 45, 55 or 65 mph (75, 90, or 105 km/h).
Visual warnings are displayed followed by an audible tone when the
preselected vehicle speed is exceeded.
