Reasons given...
Consider...
“I’d rather be thrown
clear”
Not a good idea.
People
who are
ejected are
40 times more likely to DIE.
Safety belts
help prevent ejection, WE CAN’T “PICK OUR
CRASH”.
Do not sit on top of a buckled safety belt to avoid the
BeltMinder
娂
chime. Sitting on the safety belt will increase the
risk of injury in an accident. To disable (one-time) or deactivate the
BeltMinder
娂
feature please follow the directions stated below.
One time disable
Any time the safety belt is buckled and then unbuckled during an
ignition ON cycle, the BeltMinder
娂
will be disabled for that ignition
cycle only.
Deactivating/activating the BeltMinder
姟
feature
Read Steps 1 - 4 thoroughly before proceeding with the
deactivation/activation programming procedure.
The BeltMinder
娂
feature 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) (automatic transmission)
•
The ignition switch is in the OFF position
•

To reduce the risk of injury, do not deactivate/activate the Belt
Minder 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.
