SEATBELT REMINDER
HOW DOES THE SEATBELT REMINDERWORK
This feature supplements the seatbeltwarning function by providing additionalreminders that intermittently sound a toneand illuminate the seatbelt warning lampwhen you are in the driver seat or you havea front seat passenger and a seatbelt isunbuckled.
The system uses information from the frontpassenger sensing system to determine if afront seat passenger is present and thereforepotentially in need of a warning. To avoidthe system switching on the Belt-Minderfeature for objects you place on the frontpassenger seat, only the front seatpassengers receive warnings as determinedby the front passenger sensing system.
If the Belt-Minder warnings expire (warningsfor about five minutes) for one passenger(driver or front passenger), the otherpassenger can still cause the Belt-Minderfeature to switch on.
