the vehicle to a stop and buckle the rear seat belts over
the empty seats. This will keep tension on the seat

Enhanced Seat Belt Use Reminder System
(BeltAlert)
BeltAlertis a feature intended to remind the driver to
fasten their seatbelt. This feature is active whenever the
ignition is on. If the driver is unbelted, the Seat Belt
Reminder Light will turn on and remain on until the
driver seatbelt is fastened.
The BeltAlert warning sequence begins within 60 sec-
onds of the vehicle speed over 5 mph (8 km/h), by
blinking the Seat Belt Reminder Light and sounding an
intermittent chime. Once the sequence starts, it will
continue for 96 seconds or until the driver seatbelt is
fastened. After the sequence completes, the Seatbelt
Reminder Light remains illuminated until the driver
seatbelt is fastened. The driver should instruct all other
occupants to fasten their seatbelts. If the driver seatbelt is
unbuckled while traveling at speeds greater than 5 mph (8 km/h), BeltAlert
will chime once and illuminate the
Seat Belt Reminder Light, then will proceed to the
96 second warning sequence.
BeltAlert Programming
NOTE:Chrysler Group LLC does not recommend de-
activating BeltAlert.
BeltAlert can be enabled or disabled by your authorized
dealer or by performing the following steps:
NOTE: The following steps must occur within the first
60 seconds of the ignition switch being turned to the
ON/RUN position. Chrysler Group LLC does not recom-
mend deactivating BeltAlert.
1. With the ignition in the OFF position, buckle the
driver ’s seat belt.
54 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE

2. Turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position (do
not start the engine), and wait for the Seat Belt Reminder
Light to turn off.
3. Unbuckle and then re-buckle the driver ’s seat belt
three times, ending with the seat belt buckled. This must
be completed within 60 seconds of turning the ignition
switch to the ON/RUN position.
4. Turn the ignition key to the OFF position. A single
chime will sound to signify that you have successfully
completed the programming.
NOTE:Watch for the Seat Belt Reminder Light to turn
on while the seat belt retracts and turn off while rebuck-
ling the seat belt.
BeltAlert can be reactivated by repeating this procedure.
NOTE: Although BeltAlert is deactivated, the Seat Belt
Reminder Light will continue to illuminate as long as the
driver’s seat belt is unbuckled.Seat Belts And Pregnant Women
We recommend that pregnant women use the seat belts
throughout their pregnancy. Keeping the mother safe is
the best way to keep the baby safe.
Pregnant women should wear the lap part of the belt
across the thighs and as snug across the hips as possible.
Keep the belt low so that it does not come across the
abdomen. That way the strong bones of the hips will take
the force if there is an accident.
Seat Belt Extender
If a seat belt is too short, even when fully extended, your
authorized dealer can provide you with a seat belt
extender. This extender should be used only if the
existing belt is not long enough. When it is not required,
remove the extender, and store it.
