one seating position, do not buckle the other position as this will
terminate the process.

deactivation/activation programming procedure.

威
features must be
disabled/enabled separately. Both cannot be disable/enabled during the
same key cycle.

If you are using MyKey™, the Belt-Minder
威
cannot be disabled.
Also, if the Belt-Minder
威
has been previously disabled, it will be
re-enabled during the use of MyKey™. Refer to
MyKey™
in the
Locks
and Security
chapter.

The gearshift is in P (Park).
•
The ignition is off.

WARNING:
While the design allows you to deactivate your
Belt-Minder
威
, this system is designed to improve your chances of
being safely belted and surviving an accident. We recommend you
leave the Belt-Minder

system activated for yourself and others who
may use the vehicle. To reduce the risk of injury, do not
deactivate/activate the Belt-Minder
