Acura 2009 Accord Sedan - Manual (Page 70)

The instrument panel has many
indicators to give you important
information about your vehicle. If your front passenger does not
fasten their seat belt, the indicator
comes on about 6 seconds after the
ignition switch is turned to the ON
(II) position.
This indicator comes on when you
turn the ignition switch to the ON
(II) position. It reminds you and your
passengers to fasten your seat belts.
A beeper also sounds if you have not
fastened your seat belt.
You will also see a ‘‘FASTEN SEAT
BELT’’ message on the multi-
information display.
You will also see a ‘‘CHECK
EMISSION SYSTEM’’ message on
the multi-information display. For
more information, see page
.
The engine can be severely damaged
if this indicator flashes or stays on
when the engine is running, and you
will also see a ‘‘CHECK ENGINE
OIL LEVEL’’ message on the multi-
information display. For more
information, see page
.
If you turn the ignition switch to the
ON (II) position before fastening
your seat belt, the beeper sounds
and the indicator flashes. If you do
not fasten your seat belt before the
beeper stops, the indicator stops
flashing but remains on.
If either of you do not fasten your
seat belt while driving, the beeper
will sound and the indicator will flash
again at regular intervals, and you
will also see a ‘‘FASTEN SEAT
BELT’’ or ‘‘FASTEN PASSENGER
SEAT BELT’’ message on the multi-
information display. For more
information, see page

Models equipped with the keyless
access system have an engine start/
stop button instead of an ignition
switch. ON Mode is the equivalent of
ON (II). See page
for ignition
switch and power mode comparison.
