1. With the ignition in the OFF position, buckle the
driver’s seat belt.
2. Cycle the ignition to the ON/RUN position (do not
start the engine), and wait for the Seat Belt Reminder
Light to turn off.
3. Unbuckle and then re-buckle the driver’s seat belt
three times, ending with the seat belt buckled. This must
be completed within 60 seconds of cycling the ignition to
the ON/RUN position.
4. Cycle the ignition to the OFF position. A single chime
will sound to signify that you have successfully com-
pleted the programming.
NOTE:
Watch for the Seat Belt Reminder Light to turn
on while the seat belt retracts and turn off while re-
buckling the seat belt.
BeltAlert
can be reactivated by repeating this procedure.
NOTE:
Although BeltAlert
has been deactivated, the
Seat Belt Reminder Light will continue to illuminate
while the driver’s or front passenger’s (if equipped with
belt alert) seat belt remains unfastened.
Seat Belt Lock Out
The center rear seat belt system has a lock out feature that
will not allow you to extract the center webbing unless
the rear seat upper latch is engaged.
Seat Belts And Pregnant Women
We recommend that pregnant women use the seat belts
throughout their pregnancies. Keeping the mother safe is
the best way to keep the baby safe.
Pregnant women should wear the lap part of the belt
across the thighs and as snug across the hips as possible.
Keep the belt low so that it does not come across the
abdomen. That way the strong bones of the hips will take
the force if there is an accident.
