Seat Belt Warning

Light

Except Mexico

The seat belt warning light turns on if the
driver or passenger'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 un-
fastened (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 re-
mains illuminated.

NOTE



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



To allow the passenger occupant classifi-
cation 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 addi-
tional seat cushion could cause sensor in-
terference.



If a small child is seated on the passeng-
er's seat, the warning light may not oper-
ate.

Fasten the seat belts.
