WARNING: Do not sit on top of a buckled safety belt or insert a
latchplate into the buckle to avoid the Belt-Minder威 chime. To
do so may adversely affect the performance of the vehicle’s airbag
system.
One-time disable
Any time the safety belt is buckled and then unbuckled during an
ignition on cycle, the Belt-Minder威 will be disabled for that ignition cycle
only.
Deactivating/activating the Belt-Minder姞 feature (Driver only)
