Deactivating and Activating the
Belt-Minder Feature WARNING
While the system allows you to
deactivate it, this system is designed
to improve your chances of being
safely belted and surviving an accident.
We recommend you leave the system
activated for yourself and others who may
use the vehicle. Note:
The driver and front passenger
warnings switch on and off independently.
When you perform this procedure for one
seating position, do not buckle the other
position as this will terminate the process.
Note: If you are using MyKey ™, you cannot
disable the Belt-Minder. Also, if you have
previously disabled the Belt-Minder, it will
be re-enabled during the use of MyKey ™.
See
MyKey ™ (page 48). Read Steps 1 - 4 thoroughly before
proceeding with the programming
procedure.
Before following the procedure, make sure
that:
•
The parking brake is set.
• The transmission is in park (P).
• The ignition is off.
• The driver and front passenger
seatbelts are unbuckled.
1. Switch the ignition on. Do not start the
vehicle (Ready to Drive light must not
be lit).
2. Wait until the seatbelt warning light turns off (about one minute). Once you
start Step 3, you must complete the
procedure within 60 seconds.
3. For the seating position you are switching off, buckle then unbuckle the
seatbelt four times at a moderate
speed, ending in the unbuckled state.
After Step 3, the seatbelt warning light
turns on.

The horn sounds if the system fails to start,
unless quiet start is on. Quiet start runs the
blower fan at a slower speed to reduce
noise. You can switch the feature on or off
using the information display. See General
Information (page 80).
The power windows do not work during
remote start and the radio does not turn

Extending the Remote Start Running
Time
To extend the remote start running time
duration of your vehicle during remote
start, repeat steps 1 and 2 while your
vehicle is running. If the duration is set to
10 minutes, the duration extends by
another 10 minutes. For example, if your
vehicle had been running from the first
remote start for 5 minutes, your vehicle
continues to run now for a total of 20
minutes. You can extend the remote start
running time duration to a maximum of 30
minutes.
Wait at least five seconds before remote
starting after you switch your vehicle off.
Turning Your Vehicle Off After Remote
Starting Press the button once. The
parking lamps turn off.
You may have to be closer to
your vehicle than when starting due to
ground reflection and the added noise of
the running vehicle. You can turn the remote start system on
or off using the information display. See
General Information
(page 80).
REPLACING A LOST KEY OR
REMOTE CONTROL

remote controls from an authorized dealer.
Authorized dealers can program remote
controls for your vehicle.

system see an authorized dealer.
