•
With the buzzer deactivated, if the
driver or front passenger seat belt is
unfastened or either fastened seat belt
is released when the engine starts and
the vehicle speed reaches 25 km/h, the
buzzer will be activated until both of the
driver and front passenger seat belts
are fastened or sound for more than
120 s, and then the buzzer will stop
sounding (the sounding of the buzzer
does not stop with the change of the
vehicle speed).
•
With the buzzer deactivated, if the vehi-
cle speed decreases from 25 km/h to
less than 10 km/h and increases to 25
km/h again, the seat belt warning will be
reactivated.
•
With the buzzer activated, when either
fastened seat belt is released and the
warning condition is met, the buzzer will
be reactivated, and the sounding time of
the buzzer is counted from the reactive
time.
•
When the transmission is placed in
reverse gear, and then shifted into for-
ward gear again, if the driver or front
passenger seat belt is unfastened and
the vehicle speed is more than 10 km/h,
the buzzer will be activated until both of
the driver and front passenger seat
belts are fastened or sound for more
than 120 s, and then the buzzer will
stop sounding.
Fastening the seat belt correctly
helps reduce the risk of an injury
during a traffic accident of sudden braking.
Therefore, you and the passengers should
keep the seat belts fastened correctly while
the vehicle is moving.
If an illuminated warning light, relevant
alarm and warning instruction are ignored,
this may cause serious injuries, vehicle
damage or traffic accident.
Seat Belts and Pregnant Women
Seat belts are available for everyone,
including pregnant women. Like all passen-
gers, seat belts must also be worn by preg-
nant women.
Throughout the pregnancy, the pregnant
women should wear their seat belts and
position the crotch belt portions as low as
possible under the round part of the abdom-
inal area. The pregnant women should sit
up as straight as possible and keep away
from the steering wheel or instrument
panel. This can reduce the injury caused by
the collision or deployed airbag to the preg-
nant women and fetus. The best way to pro-
tect the fetus is to protect the mother. When
a seat belt is worn property, it is more likely
that fetus will not be hurt in a collision. For
pregnant women, as for anyone, the key to
making seat belts effective is wearing them
properly.
