Creating

Use the information display control to create a MyKey.

1. Insert the key you want to program into the ignition or, if the vehicle is equipped with push button start, put the Intelligent Access key in the backup slot; see the Starting and Stopping the Engine chapter for the backup slot location.
2. Turn the ignition on.
3. Access the main menu from the information display controls and select Settings, then MyKey by pressing OK or the > button.
4. Press OK to select Create.
5. When prompted, hold the OK button until you see a message informing you to label this key as a MyKey. The key will be restricted at the next start.

The key is successfully programmed. Make sure you label it so you can distinguish it from the admin keys.

To program optional settings for the key(s), see the Programming/Changing Optional Settings chapter.
