With Optional Message Center

NOTE: After a MyKey® has been programmed, the remaining standard key(s) (the key[s] that is not programmed with the MyKey® feature) is referred to as an "administrator key(s)" or "admin" key(s). There must always be at least one admin key.
NOTE: The MyKey® feature can be cleared within the same key cycle that it was programmed. Follow the Disable MyKey® procedure to clear the key of any restricted MyKey® status. If the key has been cycled, an admin key is required to clear the MyKey® programming.
  1. Insert a programmed Passive Anti-Theft System (PATS) key into the ignition and turn the key from the OFF to the RUN position. This key must be the one that is being programmed to the MyKey® restricted status.
  2. From the message center main menu, use the up and down arrow buttons to scroll to and select Settings. Press the OK button.
  3. Use the up and down arrow buttons to scroll to and select MyKey®. Press the OK button.
  4. Use the up and down arrow buttons to scroll to and select Create MyKey®. Press the OK button.
  5. Press and hold the OK button to create the MyKey®.
  6. The MyKey® feature (standard restricted features) is successfully programmed into this particular key. Make sure it is labeled for easy identification. If you would like to customize the MyKey® with the audio volume limited, maximum speed limit, speed alert chimes, and AdvanceTrac® on/off restrictions, refer to CONFIGURING MYKEY® OPTIONAL RESTRICTED FEATURES  .
