SEATBELT REMINDER AUDIBLE

WARNINGS

A warning tone sounds and the warning

lamp illuminates if you are not wearing

your seatbelt when your vehicle exceeds

a relatively low speed.

The warning tone sounds for a short period

of time or until you fasten your seatbelt.

SWITCHING THE SEATBELT

REMINDER ON AND OFF

WARNING: While the system

allows you to deactivate it, this system

is designed to improve your chances of

being safely belted and surviving an

accident. We recommend you leave the

system activated for yourself and others

who may use the vehicle.

Note: The driver and front passenger

warnings switch off independently. When

you perform this procedure for one seating

position, do not buckle the other position as

this cancels the process.

Note: If you are using MyKey, you cannot

disable the seatbelt reminder. Also, if the

seatbelt reminder has been previously

disabled, it is re-enabled during the use of

MyKey. See MyKey™ (page 65).

Read Steps 1 - 4 before proceeding with

the programming procedure.

Make sure that:

• The parking brake is set.

• The transmission is in park (P).

• The ignition is off.

• The driver and front passenger

seatbelts are unfastened.

1. Switch the ignition on. Do not start the

engine.

2. After Step 1, wait an additional five

seconds before proceeding with Step

3. Once you start Step 3, you must

complete the procedure within 30

seconds.

3. For the seating position you are

switching off, buckle then unbuckle the

seatbelt four times at a moderate

speed, ending in the unbuckled state.

After Step 3, the seatbelt warning light

switches on.

4. When the seatbelt warning light is on,

buckle then unbuckle the seatbelt.

After Step 4, the seatbelt warning light

flashes for confirmation.

This switches the feature off for that

seating position if it is currently on.

CHECKING THE SEATBELTS

Check the seatbelts and child restraints

periodically to make sure they work

properly and are not damaged. Make sure

there are no nicks, tears or cuts. Replace if

necessary.

Seatbelts

Check the following seatbelt assemblies

after a crash.

• Retractors.

• Buckles.

• Front seatbelt buckle assemblies.

• Shoulder belt height adjusters.

• Shoulder belt guide on seat backrest.

• Child restraint LATCH and tether

anchors.

• Attaching hardware.

Read the child restraint manufacturer's

instructions for additional inspection and

maintenance information specific to the

child restraint.

We recommend that all seatbelt

assemblies in use in vehicles involved in a

crash be replaced. However, if the crash

was minor and an authorized dealer finds

that the belts do not show damage and

continue to operate properly, they do not

need to be replaced. Seatbelt assemblies

not in use during a crash should also be

checked and replaced if either damage or

improper operation is noted.

Properly care for seatbelts. See Cleaning

Seatbelts (page 307).

SEATBELT EXTENSIONS

WARNING: Persons who fit into

the vehicle's seatbelt should not use an

extension. Unnecessary use could result

in serious personal injury in the event of

a crash.

WARNING: Only use extensions

provided free of charge by our dealers.

The dealer will provide an extension

designed specifically for this vehicle,

model year and seating position. The use

of an extension intended for another

vehicle, model year or seating position

may not offer you the full protection of

your vehicle's seatbelt restraint system.

WARNING: Never use seatbelt

extensions to install child restraints.

WARNING: Do not use extensions

to change the way the seatbelt fits

across the torso, over the lap or to make

the seatbelt buckle easier to reach.

If, because of body size or driving position,

it is not possible to properly fasten the

seatbelt over your lap and shoulder, an

extension that is compatible with the

seatbelts is available free of charge from

our dealers. Only use our seatbelt

extensions made by the original equipment

seatbelt manufacturer with our seatbelts.

Ask your authorized dealer if your extension

is compatible with your vehicle restraint

system.
