Enhanced Seat Belt Use Reminder System
Driver And Passenger BeltAlert (If Equipped)
BeltAlert is a feature intended to remind the driver and outboard front seat passen-
ger (if equipped with outboard front passenger seat BeltAlert) to buckle their seat belts
.
The Belt Alert feature is active whenever the ignition switch is in the AVV/START or
MAR/ON/RUN position
.
Initial Indication
If the driver is unbuckled when the ignition switch is first in the AVV/START or MAR/
ON/RUN position, a chime will signal for a few seconds
.
If the driver or outboard front
seat passenger (if equipped with outboard front passenger seat BeltAlert) is unbuckled
when the ignition switch is first in the AVV/START or MAR/ON/RUN position the Seat
Belt Reminder Light will turn on and remain on until both outboard front seat belts are
buckled
.
The outboard front passenger seat BeltAlert is not active when an outboard
front passenger seat is unoccupied
.
BeltAlert Warning Sequence
The BeltAlert warning sequence is activated when the vehicle is moving above a specified
vehicle speed range and the driver or outboard front seat passenger is unbuckled (if
equipped with outboard front passenger seat BeltAlert) (the outboard front passenger
seat BeltAlert is not active when the outboard front passenger seat is unoccupied)
.
The
BeltAlert warning sequence starts by blinking the Seat Belt Reminder Light and sounding
an intermittent chime
.
Once the BeltAlert warning sequence has completed, the Seat Belt
Reminder Light will remain on until the seat belts are buckled
.
The BeltAlert warning se-
quence may repeat based on vehicle speed until the driver and occupied outboard front
seat passenger seat belts are buckled
.
The driver should instruct all occupants to buckle
their seat belts
.
Change Of Status
If the driver or outboard front seat passenger (if equipped with outboard front passen-
ger seat BeltAlert) unbuckles their seat belt while the vehicle is traveling, the BeltAlert
warning sequence will begin until the seat belts are buckled again
.
The outboard front passenger seat BeltAlert is not active when the outboard front pas-
senger seat is unoccupied
.
BeltAlert may be triggered when an animal or other items are
placed on the outboard front passenger seat or when the seat is folded flat (if
equipped)
.
It is recommended that pets be restrained in the rear seat (if equipped) in
pet harnesses or pet carriers that are secured by seat belts, and cargo is properly
stowed
