Belt minder

The belt minder is a supplemental
warning to the seat belt warning function.
This feature provides additional reminders
to the driver that the driver's seat belt is
not fastened by intermittently sounding a
beep sound and flashing the seat belt
warning light in the instrument cluster.

Condition

Result

The driver's seat belt is not
fastened when the vehicle
speed reaches 8 km/h
(5 mph) and about 1 minute
has elapsed since the
ignition switch was turned
to the ON position.

The warning light
flashes and the beep
sound will be heard
for about 6 seconds
every 30 seconds, for
a period of about 5
minutes.

The driver's seat belt is
fastened while the warning
light and the beep sound are
activated.

The warning light
turns off and the beep
sound stops.

The driver's seat belt is
fastened before the ignition
switch is turned to the ON
position.

The warning light will
not illuminate and the
beep sound will not be
heard.
