Deactivating and Activating the Belt-Minder
Feature
WARNING: While the system allows
you to switch it off, this system is designed
to improve your chances of being safely
belted and surviving a crash. We
recommend you leave the system switched
on. To reduce the risk of injury, do not
switch the system on or off while driving
your 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.
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) or neutral
(N). •
The ignition is off.
• The driver and front passenger seatbelts
are unbuckled.
1. Switch the ignition on. Do not start the vehicle.
2. Wait until the seatbelt warning lamp turns
off (about 1 minute). After Step 2, wait an
additional 5 seconds before proceeding
with Step 3. Once you start Step 3, you
must complete the procedure within 30
seconds.
3. For the seating position you are switching
off, buckle then unbuckle the seatbelt
three times at a moderate speed, ending
in the unbuckled state. After Step 3, the
seatbelt warning lamp turns on.
4. While the seatbelt warning lamp is on, buckle and then unbuckle the seatbelt.
After Step 4, the seatbelt warning lamp
flashes for confirmation.
• This will switch the feature off for that
seating position if it is currently on.
• This will switch the feature on for that
seating position if it is currently off. CHILD RESTRAINT AND SEATBELT
MAINTENANCE
Inspect the vehicle seatbelts and child safety
seat systems periodically to make sure they
work properly and are not damaged. Inspect
the vehicle and child restraint seatbelts to
make sure there are no nicks, tears or cuts.
Replace if necessary. All vehicle seatbelt
assemblies, including retractors, buckles,
front seatbelt buckle assemblies, buckle
support assemblies (slide bar-if equipped),
shoulder belt height adjusters (if equipped),
shoulder belt guide on seat backrest (if
equipped), child safety seat LATCH and
tether anchors, and attaching hardware,
should be inspected after a crash. Read the
child restraint manufacturer's instructions for
additional inspection and maintenance
information specific to the child restraint.
