Seat belt warning
Operation
<Vehicles with automatic
This warning light warns the driver and front passenger to
fasten their seat belts. If one or more seat belts are not
fastened, the automatic seat belt control unit detects that fact
and causes the warning light to be illuminated or flash.
How long the light is illuminated or how many times it flashes
depends on whether only one, or both of the belts remain
unfastened.
without automatic
The seat belt warning light will flash for about six seconds
when the ignition key is turned to the ON position.
If at this time the driver’s seat belt is not buckled, the alarm
buzzer will sound four times in synchronism with the flashing
of the warning light.
