To allow the passenger occupant
classification sensor to function

If the vehicle speed exceeds about 20
km/h (12 mph) with the driver or
passenger's seat belt unfastened, a warning
beep sounds continuously. If the seat belt
remains unfastened, the beep sound stops
once and then continues for about 90
seconds. The beep stops after the driver or
passenger's seat belt is fastened.
Until a seat belt is fastened or a given
period of time has elapsed, the beep sound
will not stop even if the vehicle speed falls
below 20 km/h (12 mph).
NOTE
Placing heavy items on the passenger's
seat may cause the passenger's seat belt
warning function to operate depending
on the weight of the item.
To allow the passenger seat weight
sensor to function properly, do not place
and sit on an additional seat cushion on
the passenger's seat. The sensor may not
function properly because the additional

interference.

passenger's seat, the warning beep may
not operate.
