Deactivating/activating the Belt-Minder姞 feature (if equipped)
The driver and front passenger Belt-Minder威 are
deactivated/activated independently. When deactivating/activating
one seating position, do not buckle the other position as this will
terminate the process.
Read Steps1-4thoroughly before proceeding with the
deactivation/activation programming procedure.
Note: The driver and front passenger Belt-Minder威 features must be
disabled/enabled separately.
The driver and front passenger Belt-Minder威 features can be
deactivated/activated by performing the following procedure:

• The parking brake is set
• The gearshift is in P (Park) (automatic transmission) and in neutral
(manual transmission)

WARNING: While the design allows you to deactivate your
Belt-Minder威, this system is designed to improve your chances of
being safely belted and surviving an accident. We recommend you
leave the Belt-Minder威 system activated for yourself and others who
may use the vehicle. To reduce the risk of injury, do not
deactivate/activate the Belt-Minder威 feature while driving the vehicle.
1. Turn the ignition on. DO NOT START THE ENGINE.
2. Wait until the safety belt warning light turns off (approximately one
minute).
• Once the next step is started, the procedure must be completed
within 60 seconds.
3. For the seating position being disabled, buckle then unbuckle the
safety belt four times at a moderate speed, ending in the unbuckled
state.
• After Step 3, the safety belt warning light will turn on.
