Deactivating and Activating the Belt-Minder® Feature

WARNING: While the design allows you to deactivate your
Belt-Minder®, this system is designed to improve your chances of

being safely belted and surviving an accident. We recommend you leave
the Belt-Minder® system activated for yourself and others who may use
the vehicle. To reduce the risk of injury, do not deactivate or activate
the Belt-Minder® feature while driving the vehicle.

Note: The driver and front passenger Belt-Minder® are deactivated and
activated independently. When deactivating or activating one seating
position, do not buckle the other position as this will terminate the
process.

Note: If you are using MyKey®, the Belt-Minder® cannot be disabled.
Also, if the Belt-Minder® has been previously disabled, it will be
re-enabled during the use of MyKey®. See the MyKey® chapter.

Read Steps 1 - 4 thoroughly before proceeding with the deactivation
or activation programming procedure.

The driver and front passenger Belt-Minder® features can be deactivated
or activated by performing the following procedure:

Before following the procedure, make sure that:
• the parking brake is set
• the transmission selector lever is in position P (automatic

transmission) or N (manual transmission)

• the ignition is on
• the driver and front passenger safety belts are unbuckled.
1. Turn the ignition on. DO NOT START THE ENGINE.

2. Wait until the safety belt warning light turns off (approximately one
minute).
• Step 3 must be completed within 30 seconds after the safety belt

warning light turns off.
