Belt warning for the driver and front

passenger

Regardless of whether the driver's and front-

passenger seat belts have already been

fastened, the 7 seat belt warning lamp

lights up for six seconds each time the engine

is started. It then goes out if the driver and

the front passenger have already fastened

their seat belts.
If the driver's seat belt is not fastened when

the engine is started, an additional warning

tone will sound. This warning tone stops after

a maximum of six seconds or once the

driver's seat belt is fastened.
If after six seconds the driver or front

passenger have not fastened their seat belts

and the doors are closed, the 7 seat belt

warning lamp lights up:

R

until the driver's or front passenger's seat

belt is fastened

R

if a vehicle speed of 15 mph (25 km/h) is

exceeded, a warning tone also sounds with

increasing intensity for a maximum of

60 seconds or until the driver or front-

passenger seat belt has been fastened.

If the driver/front passenger unfasten their

seat belt while the vehicle is in motion, the

7 seat belt warning lamp lights up and a

warning tone sounds again.
The warning tone ceases even if the driver or

front-passenger seat belt has still not been

fastened after 60 seconds. The 7 seat belt

warning lamp stops flashing but remains

illuminated.
