•
The seat belt reminder system warns the driver, when the driver/passenger seat belt
and/or the rear seat belts are unfastened. It consists of driver-side/passenger-side
buckle switch, passenger-side occupancy sensor, rear buckle switches, seat belt
reminder indicator, driver seat belt warning light and warning chime (the latter two are
integrated in the instrument cluster).
1 Seat belt reminder indicator
2 Passenger seat belt warning light
3 Rear left seat belt indicator light

Buckle Switches

•
The buckle switches are integrated in the seat belt buckles and detect, whether or not
the seat belts are buckled. When the seat belt is unbuckled, the switch supplies ground
to the SAS control module (driver-side/passenger-side buckle switch) or to the seat belt
reminder indicator (rear buckle switches).

Occupancy Sensor

•
The occupancy sensor is integrated in the passenger seat cushion and detects, whether
or not the passenger seat is occupied. When a weight of approx. 15 kg or more acts on
the passenger seat, the sensor supplies ground to the SAS control module.
