cator tells you if the rear passengers have
fastened their seat belts. The status indicator

cator appears in the multi-function display for
around 30 seconds if:
R you set off and have reached a speed of
approx. 10 km/h
R the rear passengers fasten or unfasten
their seat belts while driving
R someone gets in or out of the vehicle
You can also cancel the messages immedi-
ately (Y page 202).

function display:
