Seating and Safety Restraints
Reasons given...
"I have an airbag"
"I'd rather be thrown clear"
Do not sit on top of a buckled safety belt or insert a latchplate
into the buckle to avoid the BeltMinder chime. To do so may
adversely affect the performance of the vehicle's air bag system
One time disable
Any time the safety belt is buckled and then unbuckled during an
ignition ON cycle, BeltMinder will be disabled for that ignition cycle
only.
Deactivating/activating the BeltMinder feature (if equipped)
Read Steps 1 - 4 thoroughly before proceeding with the
deactivation/activation programming procedure.
The driver BeltMinder feature can be deactivated/activated by
performing the following procedure:
Before following the procedure, make sure that:
• The parking brake is set
• The gearshift is in P (Park) (automatic transmission)
• The ignition switch is in the OFF position
• The driver safety belt is unbuckled
To reduce the risk of injury, do not deactivate/activate the
BeltMinder feature while driving the vehicle.

Consider...
Airbags offer greater protection when
used with safety belts. Frontal airbags
are not designed to inflate in rear and
side crashes or rollovers.
Not a good idea. People who are
ejected are 40 times more likely
to DIE. Safety belts help prevent
ejection, WE CAN'T "PICK OUR
CRASH".
