SAFETY BELT MINDER

Safety Belts
If...
This lamp illuminates and an
audible warning will sound if the
driver's safety belt has not been
fastened when the vehicle's ignition is
turned on.
The safety belt warning light illuminates 1-
2 minutes and the warning chime sounds
4-8 seconds.
The safety belt warning light and warning
chime turn off.
The safety belt warning light and indicator
chime remain off.
The system uses information from the front
passenger sensing system to determine
if a front seat passenger is present and
therefore potentially in need of a warning.
To avoid activating the Belt-Minder feature
for objects placed in the front passenger
seat, warnings will only be given to front
seat occupants as determined by the front
passenger sensing system.
If the Belt-Minder warnings have expired
(warnings for about five minutes) for one
occupant (driver or front passenger), the
other occupant can still activate the
Belt-Minder feature.
