A tone and warning light are used to remind the driver to fasten
the seat belt.
If the ignition switch is set to the “ON” position without the
driver’s seat belt being fastened, a warning light will come on
and a tone will sound for approximately 6 seconds to remind
you to fasten your seat belt.
If you then drive with the seat belt unfastened for longer than a
minute from when the ignition switch was turned on, the warn-
ing light will come on and blink repeatedly and the tone will
sound intermittently.
The warning light and the tone will stop after approximately 90
seconds.If you then repeatedly stop and start your vehicle with the seat
belt unfastened, the warning light/display and tone will remind
you to fasten your seat belt every time the vehicle starts mov-
ing. You will also be reminded to fasten your seat belt in this
way when you remove your seat belt while driving. The warn-
ing light and the tone go off when the seat belt is fastened.
NOTE

At the same time, “FASTEN SEAT BELT” will be dis-
played on the information screen in the multi-information
display.

in an accident, always fasten your own seat belt. Do
not allow anyone to ride in your vehicle unless he or
she is also seated and fastening a seat belt. Children
should additionally be restrained in a secure child
restraint system.

Display type 1
Display type 2
NOTE

The display may come on when you start the engine.
This means that the battery voltage momentarily dropped
when the engine was started. It does not indicate a mal-
function, provided that the display goes out immediately.


When a spare tire has been put on your vehicle, the grip-
ping ability of the tire will be lower, making it more likely
that the display will blink.
- ASC operation display
When the ASC is operating, the information screen in the
multi-information display will change and the ASC opera-
tion display will blink.
-ASC OFF display
The display is displayed when the ASC has been deac-
tivated with the “ASC OFF” switch.
- ASC indicator (if so equipped)
Indicator blinks when the ASC is operating.
CAUTION
!

When display blinks, ASC is operating, which
means that the road is slippery or that your vehicle’s
wheels are beginning to slip. If this happens, drive
slower.


If the temperature in the braking system continues
to increase due to continuous brake control on a
slippery road surface, the display will blink. To
prevent the brake system from overheating, the
brake control of the traction control function will be
temporarily suspended. The engine control of the
traction control function and normal brake opera-
tion will not be affected.
Park your vehicle in a safe place. When the temper-
ature in the braking system has come down, the
display will be turned off and the traction control
function will start operating again.
