Taking Action

Take the appropriate action and verify that the warning light turns off.

Light

Except Mexico

The seat belt warning light turns on if the driver or pas-
senger's seat is occupied and the seat belt is not fastened
with the ignition switched ON.
If the driver or passenger's seat belt is unfastened (only
when the passenger's seat is occupied) and the vehicle is
driven at a speed faster than about 20 km/h (12 mph),
the warning light flashes. After a short time, the warning
light stops flashing, but remains illuminated.

NOTE

The warning light flashes for about 6 seconds if the
driver's seat belt is not fastened when the ignition is
switched ON.

To allow the passenger occupant classification sensor
to function properly, do not place and sit on an addi-
tional seat cushion on the passenger's seat. The sensor
may not function properly because the additional seat
cushion could cause sensor interference.

If a small child is seated on the passenger's seat, the
warning light may not operate.

Mexico

The seat belt warning light turns on if the driver or pas-
senger's seat is occupied and the seat belt is not fastened
with the ignition switched ON.
If the driver or passenger's seat belt is unfastened (only
when the passenger's seat is occupied) and the vehicle is
driven at a speed faster than about 20 km/h (12 mph),
the warning light flashes. After a short time, the warning
light stops flashing, but remains illuminated. If a seat
belt remains unfastened, the warning light flashes again
for a given period of time.

NOTE

Placing heavy items on the passenger's seat may cause
the passenger's seat belt warning function to operate
depending on the weight of the item.

To allow the passenger seat weight sensor to function
properly, do not place and sit on an additional seat
cushion on the passenger's seat. The sensor may not
function properly because the additional seat cushion
could cause sensor interference.

If a small child is seated on the passenger's seat, the
warning light may not operate.

Fasten the seat belts.
