Beltminder Activation And Deactivation Procedure - Ford F-550 Owner's Manual

• the driver's safety belt is unbuckled
• the parklamps/headlamps are in the OFF position (If the vehicle is
equipped with Autolamps, this will not affect the procedure)
While the design allows you to deactivate your BeltMinder , this
system is designed to improve your chances of being safely
belted and surviving an accident. We recommend you leave the
BeltMinder system activated for yourself and others who may use the
vehicle. To reduce the risk of injury, do not deactivate/activate the
BeltMinder feature while driving the vehicle.

BeltMinder activation and deactivation procedure

1. Turn the ignition switch to the RUN (or ON) position. (DO NOT
START THE ENGINE)

minute)
• Step 3 must be completed within 60 seconds after the safety belt
warning light turns off.
