single chime will sound to signify that you have com-
pleted the programming successfully.
The Enhanced Warning System (BeltAlert ௡) can be reac-
tivated by repeating this procedure.
NOTE: When the Enhanced Warning System
(BeltAlert ௡) is deactivated, the Seat Belt Reminder light
will continue to illuminate as long as the driver’s seat belt
or the passenger’s seat belt is unbuckled.
Automatic Locking Mode
The seat belts for both occupants are equipped with
emergency locking retractors for normal use. Emergency
locking retractors activate during very sudden stops or
impacts. The passenger seat belt in your vehicle can also
be converted to an automatic locking retractor to secure
child restraint systems. Seat belts equipped with auto-
matic locking retractors have a distinctive label on the
webbing.
How To Engage The Automatic Locking Mode
To convert the passenger seat belt from emergency lock-
ing mode to automatic locking mode, grasp the shoulder
portion of the belt and pull all of the webbing out of the
retractor. Then, allow some of the webbing to retract back
into the retractor. As the belt retracts, you will hear a
clicking sound indicating that the belt is now in auto-
matic locking mode.
