Deactivating and Activating the Belt-Minder Feature
WARNING: While the design allows you to deactivate your
Belt-Minder , this system is designed to improve your chances of
being safely belted and surviving an accident. We recommend you leave
the Belt-Minder system activated for yourself and others who may use
the vehicle. To reduce the risk of injury, do not deactivate or activate
the Belt-Minder feature while driving the vehicle.
Note: The driver and front passenger Belt-Minder are deactivated and
activated independently. When deactivating or activating one seating
position, do not buckle the other position as this will terminate the
process.
Note: The driver and front passenger Belt-Minder features must be
disabled and enabled separately. Both cannot be disable or enabled
during the same key cycle.
Note: If you are using MyKey , the Belt-Minder cannot be disabled.
Also, if the Belt-Minder has been previously disabled, it will be
re-enabled during the use of MyKey . Refer to the MyKey chapter.
Read Steps 1 - 4 thoroughly before proceeding with the deactivation
or activation programming procedure.
The driver and front passenger Belt-Minder features can be deactivated
or activated by performing the following procedure:
