If at any time the driver/front passenger quickly buckles then unbuckles
the safety belt for that seating position, the Belt-Minder
威
is disabled for
the current ignition cycle. The Belt-Minder
威
feature will enable during
the same ignition cycle if the occupant buckles and remains buckled for
approximately 30 seconds. Confirmation is not given for the one time

feature
The driver and front passenger Belt-Minder
威
are
deactivated/activated independently. When deactivating/activating
one seating position, do not buckle the other position as this will
terminate the process.
Read Steps 1 - 4 thoroughly before proceeding with the
deactivation/activation programming procedure.
The driver and front passenger Belt-Minder
威
features can be
deactivated/activated by performing the following procedure:
Before following the procedure, make sure that:
•
The parking brake is set
•
The gearshift is in P (Park)
•
The ignition switch is in the OFF position
•
The driver and front passenger safety belts are unbuckled
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
威
system activated for yourself and others who may use the vehicle. To
reduce the risk of injury, do not deactivate/activate the Belt-Minder
威
feature while driving the vehicle.
1. Turn the ignition switch to the RUN (or ON) position. (DO NOT
START THE ENGINE)
2. Wait until the safety belt warning light turns off. (Approximately 1
minute)
•
Step 3 must be completed within 50 seconds after the safety belt
warning light turns off.
3. For the seating position being disabled, at a moderate speed, buckle
then unbuckle the safety belt 9 times, ending in the unbuckled state.
