Audible Warning Device: Description and Operation
Chime/Buzzer
The warning chime/buzzer module produces a repetitive chime or steady buzzing sound, for either a predetermined amount of time or continuously,
under the following conditions:
-
The driver safety belt is unbuckled and the ignition key is in RUN.
-
The key is in the ignition switch lock cylinder and the driver door is open.
-
The headlamp switch is in the READ or PARK position, the driver door is open and the key is not in the ignition switch lock cylinder.
Seat Belt Warning
The safety belt warning chime/buzzer reminds the driver to fasten the safety belt. This occurs when the ignition key is turned to RUN and the driver
safety belt remains unbuckled. The chime/buzzer can be terminated by buckling the driver safety belt anytime during the 48 second chime/buzzer
warning.
The chime/buzzer works in conjunction with the safety belt warning indicator in the instrument cluster. When the ignition key is turned to RUN, the
safety belt warning indicator will illuminate for five seconds, whether or not the driver safety belt is buckled, to perform a prove out on the bulb.
Key-In-Ignition Warning
The key-in-ignition warning chime/buzzer will sound continuously when the ignition key is in the ignition switch lock cylinder with the key OFF and
the driver door open. The chime/buzzer will continue to sound until the key is removed from the ignition switch lock cylinder or the driver door is
closed.
Headlamps ON Warning
On vehicles equipped with Headlamps ON Warning, the warning chime/buzzer will sound continuously when the headlamp switch is in the PARK or
HEAD position, the driver door is open and the key is not in the ignition switch lock cylinder.
The chime/buzzer will continue to sound until the headlamp switch is turned OFF or the driver door is closed.
