• MYKEY MILES — This odometer only tracks mileage when a MyKey
is used. If mileage does not accumulate as expected, then the MyKey
is not being used by the intended user. The only way to reset this
odometer to zero is by clearing MyKey . If this odometer is lower than
the last time you checked, then the MyKey system has been recently
cleared.
• # MYKEY(S) PROGRAMMED — Indicates how many MyKeys are
programmed to the vehicle. Can be used to detect deletion of a
MyKey .
