Checking mykey system status
You can find information about your programmed MyKeys by using the information display. See Information Displays.
MYKEY DISTANCE
Tracks the distance when drivers use a MyKey. The only way to delete the accumulated distance is by using an admin key to clear all MyKeys. If the distance does not accumulate as expected, then the intended user is not using the MyKey, or an admin key user recently cleared and then recreated a MyKey.
NUMBER OF MYKEYS
Indicates the number of MyKeys programmed to your vehicle. Use this feature to detect how many MyKeys you have for your vehicle and determine when all MyKeys have been deleted.
NUMBER OF ADMIN KEYS
Indicates how many admin keys are programmed to your vehicle. Use this feature to determine how many admin keys you have for your vehicle, and detect if an additional MyKey has been programmed.
SING MYKEY WITH REMOTE START SYSTEMS
MyKey is not compatible with non Lincoln-approved, aftermarket remote start systems. If you choose to install a remote start system, see an authorized dealer for a Lincoln-approved remote start system.
