Safety Belt Warning Light
When the key is turned to RUN or START a chime will
come on for about eight seconds to remind people to
fasten their safety belts, unless the driver's safety belt is
already buckled.
The safety belt light will
also come on and stay on
for about 20 seconds, then
it will flash for about
55 seconds. If the driver's
belt is already buckled,
neither the chime nor the
light will come on.

CAUTION:
-
1 urour safety belt light ever comes on or stays on
after the front doors are closed and the driver's
belt is buckled, have your vehicle fixed.
If you don't, the belt might not work as it should,
and you might not have the protection you'd
need in a crash.

panel, which shows AIR BAG. The system checks the
air bag's electrical system for malfunctions. The light
tells you if there is an electrical problem. The system

the wiring and the diagnostic module. For more

start your vehicle, or stays on, or comes on when you
are driving, your air bag system may not work properly.
