Warning Chimes

Key-In-Ignition Warning Chime

When the key-in-ignition switch closes, it sends a voltage signal to the instrument cluster, which then sounds a warning chime, provided the ignition key is in and the ignition switch is in
the OFF position, and the driver door is open. The instrument cluster sounds a steady tone, which continues until the key is removed, the ignition switch is rotated to the RUN position, or
the driver door is closed.

Airbag Warning Chime

The air bag warning chime warns the driver that the air bag warning indicator lamp is not working and a fault has occurred by sounding a chime when the ignition switch is in the RUN
position for more than 20 seconds. When these conditions exist, the restraint control module (RCM) sends a chime request through communication network to the instrument cluster. The
instrument cluster then activates the warning chime. The warning consists of 5 sets of five 1-second tone bursts. Each set is separated by 5 seconds of silence. The warning is repeated
every 30 minutes.

Door/Trunk Ajar Warning Chime

The door/trunk ajar warning chime warns that a door, or the trunk, is not fully closed. The chime sounds when any door or the trunk becomes ajar while the ignition switch is in the RUN
position.

Headlamps On Warning Chime

The headlamp chime is activated when the instrument cluster receives the parking lamps ON signal from the smart junction box (SJB), the key is out of the ignition, and the driver door is
ajar. The warning consists of repeated one-half second bursts and continues to sound until the exterior lamps are turned off, the driver door is closed, or 10 minutes have elapsed, at
which time the battery saver turns the exterior lamps off.
Safety Belt Warning Chime
The safety belt warning chime is activated when the ignition switch is in the RUN position and the restraint control module (RCM) detects an unbuckled driver safety belt. The instrument
cluster generates the chime for a duration of 6 seconds or until the safety belt is buckled.
Belt-Minder®
The Belt-Minder® feature supplements the current safety belt warning function. The Belt-Minder® feature is enabled after the current safety belt warning is complete. The Belt-Minder®r
reminds the driver that their safety belt is unbuckled by intermittently sounding a chime and illuminating the safety belt warning lamp in the instrument cluster once the vehicle speed has
exceeded 5 km/h (3 mph). While activated, the Belt-Minder® alternates the chime and indicator from ON for 6 seconds, to OFF for 30 seconds.
NOTE: Belt-Minder®r is a configurable item. If configuring using a diagnostic tool, refer to
Deactivating/Activating in this section.
The Belt-Minder® reminder stops when:
the driver or passenger safety belt is buckled.
the ignition switch is turned to the OFF or ACC position.
5 minutes have elapsed since Belt-Minder® has started.
Message Center Warning Chime
The message center warning chime accompanies any initial warning message display, as well as any repeated initial warning message. As the message center is an integral part of the
instrument cluster, the interaction between the message center and the chime function is also integral to the instrument cluster.
The message center switch tone sounds when any switch on the message center is pressed. The message center switches are supplied with a voltage reference signal from the
instrument cluster. When a switch is pressed, it routes the signal through a specific resistor in the switch assembly and then to ground.
Inspection and Verification
1. Verify the customer concern.
2. Visually inspect for obvious signs of mechanical or electrical damage.
