Enhanced Seat Belt Use Reminder System
(BeltAlert)
BeltAlert is a feature intended to remind the
driver and outboard front passenger (if equipped
with outboard front passenger BeltAlert) to buckle
their seat belts. The feature is active whenever
the ignition switch is in the START or ON/RUN
position. If the driver or outboard front seat pas-
senger is unbelted, the Seat Belt Reminder Light
will turn on and remain on until both outboard front
seat belts are buckled.
The BeltAlert warning sequence begins after
the vehicle speed is over 5 MPH (8 km/h) by
blinking the Seat Belt Reminder Light and
sounding an intermittent chime. Once the se-
quence starts, it will continue for the entire
duration or until the respective seat belts are
buckled. After the sequence completes, the
Seat Belt Reminder Light remains illuminated
until the respective seat belts are buckled. The
driver should instruct all other occupants to
buckle their seat belts. If an outboard front seat
belt is unbuckled while traveling at speeds
greater than 5 MPH (8 km/h), BeltAlert will
provide both audio and visual notification.
The outboard front passenger seat BeltAlert is
not active when the outboard front passenger
seat is unoccupied. BeltAlert may be triggered
when an animal or heavy object is 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.
BeltAlert can be activated or deactivated by
your authorized dealer. Chrysler Group LLC
does not recommend deactivating BeltAlert.
NOTE:
If BeltAlert has been deactivated, the Seat
Belt Reminder Light will continue to illumi-
nate while the driver’s or outboard front
passenger’s (if equipped with BeltAlert) seat
belt remains unbuckled.
Lap/Shoulder Belts
All seating positions except the Quad Cab®,
Mega Cab® and Crew Cab front center seating
position have combination lap/shoulder belts.
The seat belt webbing retractor will lock only
during very sudden stops or collisions. This
feature allows the shoulder part of the seat belt
to move freely with you under normal condi-
tions. However, in a collision the seat belt will
lock and reduce your risk of striking the inside of
the vehicle or being thrown out of the vehicle.
WARNING!
•
Relying on the air bags alone could lead to
more severe injuries in a collision. The air
bags work with your seat belt to restrain
you properly. In some collisions, the air
bags won’t deploy at all. Always wear your
seat belt even though you have air bags.
•
In a collision, you and your passengers
can suffer much greater injuries if you are
not properly buckled up. You can strike the
interior of your vehicle or other passen-
gers, or you can be thrown out of the
vehicle. Always be sure you and others in
your vehicle are buckled up properly.
