Seat Belt Reminder Buzzer: Description and Operation
Safety Belt Warning Indicator and Chime
The warning indicator and chime are reminders to fasten the safety belt. The system operates as follows:
-
If the driver safety belt is not buckled in the first six seconds after the ignition switch is turned to the RUN or START position, the indicator will
illuminate and the chime will toggle from on to off for six seconds, for one minute.
-
If the driver safety belt is buckled while the indicator is on and the chime is sounding, both the indicator and chime will turn off.
-
If the safety belt is buckled before the ignition is turned to the ON position, neither the indicator nor the chime will turn on.
Belt Minder
The Belt Minder feature is a supplemental warning to the safety belt warning function. This feature provides an additional reminder to the driver that
the driver's safety belt is unbuckled by intermittently sounding a chime and illuminating the safety belt warning lamp in the instrument cluster.
