Reasons given...

Consider...

“I have an airbag”

Airbags offer greater protection when
used with safety belts. Frontal airbags
are not designed to inflate in rear and
side crashes or rollovers.

“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

chime. Sitting on the safety belt will increase the

risk of injury in an accident. To disable (one-time) or deactivate the
BeltMinder

feature please follow the directions stated below.

One time disable

If at any time the driver/front passenger quickly buckles then unbuckles
the safety belt for that seating position, the BeltMinder

is disabled for

the current ignition cycle. The BeltMinder

feature will enable during the

same ignition cycle if the occupant buckles and remains buckled for
approximately 30 seconds. Confirmation is not given for the one time
disable.

Deactivating/activating the BeltMinder

feature

The driver and front passenger BeltMinder

are

deactivated/activated independently. When deactivating/activating
one seating position, do not buckle the other position as this will
terminate the process.

Read Steps 1 - 4 thoroughly before proceeding with the
deactivation/activation programming procedure.

Note

: The driver and front passenger BeltMinder

features must be

disabled/enabled separately. Both cannot be disable/enabled during the
same key cycle.
