SYMPTOM PROCEDURES
SIMPLIFIED WIRING SYSTEM (SWS)54B-95
Light reminder tone alarm function
When the taillights or headlamps is the ON position, if the igni-
tion key is removed and the driver's door is opened, a tone
alarm will sound continuously to warn that the lamps are on.
However, if the taillights or headlamps have been turned off by
the headlamp automatic-shutoff function, the tone alarm will not
sound.
Seat belt tone alarm function

SYMPTOM PROCEDURES
SIMPLIFIED WIRING SYSTEM (SWS)54B-96
If any of the following conditions is met with the igni-
tion switch at "ON" or "ST", the ETACS-ECU sounds
the tone alarm by using the driver's seat belt switch
signal and the vehicle speed signal sent from the
combination meter.
Sounds the tone alarm for six seconds when the
ignition switch is turned "ON" with the seat belt
switch on (the driver's seat belt is not fastened).
This is called "Timer function".
Sounds the tone alarm 12 cycles (after 0.5 sec-
onds) if any of the following conditions is met
when sixty seconds or more have elapsed since
the ignition switch is turned "ON". One cycle con-
sists of five-second "on" and then three-second
"off".a. The vehicle speed has reached 8 km/h (5
mph) while the seat belt switch is turned on
(driver's seat belt is not fastened) with the
ignition switch "ON.
b. The seat belt switch has been turned on
(driver's seat belt has not been fastened) for
at least ten seconds while the ignition switch
has been turned "ON" and the vehicle speed
has been 8 km/h (5 mph) or more.
NOTE: Once the tone alarm has sounded 12
cycles, it does not sound again until the vehi-
cle speed reduces to 3 km/h (2 mph) or less
even if any of the following conditions is met.
The tone alarm stops sounding if the ignition
switch or the seat belt switch is turned off (the
driver's seat belt is fastened) while the timer
operation is active.

Door ajar warning buzzer
The buzzer is sounded 4 times by the ETACS-ECU to warn the
driver if any door is open when the ignition is switched ON and
the vehicle speed reaches 8 km/h (5 mph) or faster. The buzzer
will continue to sound for 4 times even if the ignition, door sta-
tus, or vehicle speed requirements are not maintained.
NOTE: The warning buzzer can be customized on vehicles
equipped with a multi center display. Refer to P.54B-486.
Multi center display operation tone center display >
The ETACS-ECU sounds the buzzer when the buzzer signal is
sent from the center display.
Turn-signal lamp buzzer
The ETACS-ECU sounds the buzzer in sync with the turn-sig-
nal lamps or hazard warning lamps.
NOTE: The turn-signal lamp buzzer can be customized on
vehicles equipped with a multi center display (middle grade
type). Refer to P.54B-486.
