Deactivating/Activating the Belt-Minderå§ Feature
WARNING: While the design allows you to deactivate your
Belt-MinderåØ, this system is designed to improve your chances of
being safely belted and surviving an accident. We recommend you leave
the Belt-MinderåØ system activated for yourself and others who may use
the vehicle. To reduce the risk of injury, do not deactivate/activate the
Belt-MinderåØ feature while driving the vehicle.
Note: The driver and front passenger Belt-MinderåØ are
deactivated/activated independently. When deactivating/activating one
seating position, do not buckle the other position as this will terminate
the process.
Read Steps1-5thoroughly before proceeding with the
deactivation/activation programming procedure.
Note: The driver and front passenger Belt-MinderåØ features must be
disabled/enabled separately. Both cannot be disable/enabled during the
same key cycle.
Note: If you are using MyKeyåØ, the Belt-MinderåØ cannot be disabled.
Also, if the Belt-MinderåØ has been previously disabled, it will be
re-enabled during the use of MyKeyåØ. Refer to MyKeyåØ in the Locks and
security chapter.
The driver and front passenger Belt-MinderåØ features can be
deactivated/activated by performing the following procedure:
Before following the procedure, make sure that:
ā¢ The parking brake is set
ā¢ The gearshift is in P (Park)
ā¢ The ignition is off

1. Turn the ignition on. DO NOT START THE ENGINE.
2. Wait until the safety belt warning light turns off (Approximately one

3. Wait 10 seconds after the safety belt warning light turns off.
ā¢ Step 4 must be completed within 20 seconds after the completion of
Step 3.
4. For the seating position being disabled buckle then unbuckle the
safety belt three times at a moderate speed, ending in the unbuckled
state.
