Warning display (red)
Warning display
If the operation mode of the power switch is
put in ON while the seat belt is not fastened,
the warning display (red) appears and the
tone sounds for approximately 6 seconds to
remind the driver and the front passenger to
fasten the seat belt.
If the vehicle is driven with the seat belt still
unfastened, the warning display (red) will
blink and the tone will sound intermittently
for approximately 90 seconds until the seat
belt is fastened. At the same time, “FASTEN
SEAT BELT” is displayed on the information
screen in the instrument cluster for the driver.
Never wear the lap portion of the belt
across your abdomen. During accidents it
can press sharply against abdomen and
increase the risk of injury.
The seat belts must not be twisted when
worn.
To unfasten
As the belt retracts automatically, keep hold-
ing the latch plate while retracting so that the
belt stows slowly. Failure to do this could
damage the vehicle.
If the seat belt (A) or ring (B) becomes dirty,
the belt may not retract smoothly. Even if the
seat belt and ring do not appear dirty, they
may actually be dirty. Clean the entire seat
belt with a neutral detergent solution, and
wipe off the ring.
Removing non-visible dirt may help the seat
belt to retract more smoothly.
Refer to “Cleaning the seat belts” on page
9-3.
Seat belt reminder
Do not install any accessory or sticker that
makes the lamp difficult to see.
If the seat belt subsequently remains unfas-
tened, the warning display (red) and the tone
will issue further warnings each time the
vehicle starts moving from a stop.
