Enhanced Seat Belt Use Reminder System
(BeltAlert®)
BeltAlert® is a feature intended to remind the driver and
front passenger (if equipped with front passenger
BeltAlert®) to fasten their seat belts. The feature is active
whenever the ignition is on. If the driver or front seat
passenger is unbelted, the Seat Belt Reminder Light will turn
on and remain on until both front seat belts are fastened.
The BeltAlert® warning sequence begins after the vehicle
speed is 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 the entire duration or
until the respective seatbelts are fastened. After the sequence
completes, the Seat Belt Reminder Light remains illuminated
until the respective seat belts are fastened. The driver should
instruct all other occupants to fasten their seat belts. If a front
seat belt is unbuckled while traveling at speeds greater than
5 mph (8 km/h), BeltAlert® will provide both audio and
visual notification.
