Seat belt reminder
WARNINGS
The seat belt reminder remains in
stand-by mode after the driver or
front passenger has fastened his or her
seat belt. It will be reactivated if the driver
or front passenger unbuckles his or her
seat belt.
Never sit on top of a buckled
seat belt to avoid the seat belt
reminder function. The restraint system
can only work properly if passengers
have buckled up their seat belts.
Note:
Placing objects on the front
passenger’s seat when it is not occupied
may trigger the sensors in the seat and
activate the seat belt reminder if the seat
belt is not engaged.
When the vehicle’s speed exceeds 23
km/h, a chime will sound if the driver’s or
front passenger’s seat belt is unbuckled.
The chime will stop after eight minutes.
