Safety Belt Reminders

Safety Belt Reminder Light

When the engine is started, a chime sounds for
several seconds to remind a driver to fasten the safety
belt, unless the driver safety belt is already buckled.
This chime and light are repeated if the driver remains
unbuckled and the vehicle is in motion. If the driver
safety belt is already buckled, neither the chime nor
the light comes on.
The safety belt light comes
on and stays on for
several seconds, then
flashes for several more.
Passenger Safety Belt Reminder Light
Several seconds after the engine is started,
a chime sounds for several seconds to remind
the front passenger to buckle their safety belt.
This only occurs if the passenger airbag is enabled.
See Passenger Sensing System (Without Turbo/With
Turbo and RPO AS5) on page 1-66 or Passenger
Sensing System (With Turbo and RPO AR9 or AE4) on
page 1-72 for more information. The passenger safety
belt light, located on the instrument panel, comes on
and stays on for several seconds and then flashes for
several more.
If the passenger safety belt is buckled, neither the
chime nor the light comes on.
The front passenger safety belt warning light and chime
may turn on if an object is put on the seat such as a
briefcase, handbag, grocery bag, laptop or other
electronic device. To turn off the warning light and or
chime, remove the object from the seat or buckle the
safety belt.
This chime and light are
repeated if the passenger
remains unbuckled and
the vehicle is in motion.
