(b) Driver's Seat Belt Reminder Light
and Buzzer
The light and buzzer act as a reminder to
buckle up the driver's seat belt.
Once the ignition key is turned to "ON" or
"START", the reminder light flashes and
buzzer sounds if the driver's seat belt is
not fastened. Unless the driver fastens the
belt, the light continues flashing and the
buzzer stops after about 4 to 8 seconds.
(c) Passenger's Seat Belt
Light
The light acts as a reminder to have the
passenger buckle up the seat belt.
Once the ignition key is turned to "ON" or
"START", the reminder light flashes if a
passenger sits in the passenger seat and
does not fasten the seat belt. Unless the
passenger fastens the belt, the light stays
flashing. However, if a passenger uses an
additional seat cushion, the light may not
flash even when the seat belt is not
buckled up.
If luggage or other load is placed on the
passenger seat, depending on its weight
and how it is placed on the seat, built−in
sensors in the seat cushion may detect
the pressure, causing the reminder light to
flash.
