The instrument panel has many
indicators to give you important
information about your car.
Seat Belt Reminder Light
This indicator lights when you turn
the ignition switch ON (II). It is a
reminder to you and your passengers
to protect yourselves by fastening
the seat belts. A beeper also sounds
if you have not fastened your seat

If you do not fasten your seat belt,
the beeper will stop after a few
seconds but the light stays on until

stay off if you fasten your seat belt
before turning on the ignition.
