Enhanced Seat Belt Use Reminder System
(BeltAlert)
Front And Rear Seat BeltAlert — If Equipped
Front Seat BeltAlert
BeltAlert is a feature intended to remind
the driver and outboard front seat
passenger to buckle their seat belts. The
Belt Alert feature is active whenever the
ignition switch is in the START or ON/RUN position.
Initial Indication
If the driver is unbuckled when the ignition switch
is first in the START or ON/RUN position a chime
will signal for a few seconds. If the driver or
outboard front seat passenger is unbuckled when
the ignition switch is first in the START or ON/RUN
position the respective Seat Belt Reminder Light
will turn solid red and remain red until the seat belt
is buckled. The respective Seat Belt Reminder
Light will turn solid green once the seat belt is
buckled. After the driver and outboard front seat
passenger have buckled their seat belts all Seat
Belt Reminder Lights will turn off. The outboard
front passenger seat BeltAlert is not active when
the outboard front passenger seat is unoccupied.
BeltAlert Warning Sequence
The BeltAlert warning sequence is activated when
the vehicle is moving above a specified vehicle
speed range and the driver or outboard front seat
passenger is unbuckled (the outboard front
passenger seat BeltAlert is not active when the
outboard front passenger seat is unoccupied). The
BeltAlert warning sequence starts by blinking the
respective Seat Belt Reminder Light and sounding
an intermittent chime. Once the BeltAlert warning
sequence has completed, the Seat Belt Reminder
Light will remain solid red until the driver and
outboard front seat passenger are buckled. The
BeltAlert warning sequence may repeat based on
vehicle speed until the driver and occupied
outboard front seat passenger seat belts are
buckled. The driver should instruct all occupants to
buckle their seat belts.
Change Of Status
If the driver or outboard front seat passenger
unbuckles their seat belt while the vehicle is
traveling, the BeltAlert warning sequence will begin
until the seat belts are buckled again.
The outboard front passenger seat BeltAlert is not
active when the outboard front passenger seat is
unoccupied. BeltAlert may be triggered when an
animal or other items are placed on the outboard
front passenger seat or when the seat is folded flat
(if equipped). It is recommended that pets be
restrained in the rear seat (if equipped) in pet
harnesses or pet carriers that are secured by seat
belts, and cargo is properly stowed.
Rear Seat BeltAlert
Rear Seat BeltAlert shows the driver whether the
seat belts in the rear seat are buckled or
unbuckled. When the ignition switch is in the
START or ON/RUN position, a Seat Belt Reminder
Light turns on for each rear seat position. If a seat
belt is buckled, the Seat Belt Reminder Light for
that position will illuminate solid green. If a seat
belt is unbuckled, the Seat Belt Reminder Light will
illuminate red. If a rear passenger unbuckles a
seat belt that was buckled at the start of the trip, a
single chime will sound and the Seat Belt
Reminder Light for that position will change from
solid green to blinking red. This will alert the driver
to stop the vehicle until the rear passenger buckles
the seat belt again. After the driver and outboard
front seat passenger have buckled their seat belts
all Seat Belt Reminder Lights will turn off.
BeltAlert can be activated or deactivated by an
authorized dealer. FCA does not recommend
deactivating BeltAlert.
NOTE:
If BeltAlert has been deactivated, the Seat Belt
Reminder Light will turn on and remain on until the
driver and outboard front seat passenger seat
belts are buckled.
