warning light will blink for approximately
6 seconds each time you turn the ignition
switch ON regardless of belt fastening.

If the driver's seat belt is not fastened
when the ignition switch is turned on, the
seat belt warning light and the seat belt
warning chime will operate for approxi-
mately 6 seconds. But if it is refastened
within the 6 seconds, the warning light
will blink till the 6 seconds and the warn-
ing chime will turn off immediately.
If the driver's seat belt is disconnected
after the ignition switch is turned to the
ON position, the seat belt warning light
and chime will operate for approximately
6 seconds. But if it is fastened within the
6 seconds, the warning light and chime
will turn off immediately. If the driver's
seat belt is not fastened when the vehicle
speed exceeds 10 km/h (6 mph), the
seat belt warning light and chime will
operate for approximately 11 times with a
pattern of 6 seconds on and 24 seconds

(Continued)
It is essential to replace the entire
assembly after it has been worn in
a severe impact even if damage to
the assembly is not obvious. Belts
should not be worn with straps
twisted. Each belt assembly must
only be used by one occupant; it is
dangerous to put a belt around a
child being carried on the occu-
pant's lap.

WARNING

No modifications or additions
should be made by the user which
will either prevent the seat belt
adjusting devices from operating to
remove slack, or prevent the seat
belt assembly from being adjusted
to remove slack.
