BeltAlert

௡ will be reactivated if the driver’s seat belt is

unbuckled for more than 10 seconds and the vehicle
speed is greater than 5 mph (8 km/h).

BeltAlert

௡ can be enabled or disabled by your authorized

dealer or by following these steps:

NOTE:

The following steps must occur within the first

60 seconds of the ignition switch being turned to the ON
or START position. Chrysler Group LLC does not recom-
mend deactivating BeltAlert

௡.

1. With all doors closed and the ignition switch in any
position except ON or START, buckle the driver’s seat
belt.

2. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position and wait
for the Seat Belt Reminder Light to turn off.

3. Within 60 seconds of starting the vehicle, unbuckle and
then re-buckle the driver’s seat belt at least three times
within 10 seconds, ending with the seat belt buckled.

4. Turn off the engine. A single chime will sound to
signify that you have successfully completed the
programming.

BeltAlert

௡ can be reactivated by repeating this procedure.

NOTE:

Although BeltAlert

௡ has been deactivated, the

Seat Belt Reminder Light will continue to illuminate
while the driver’s seat belt remains unbuckled.

Seat Belts and Pregnant Women
We recommend that pregnant women use seat belts
throughout their pregnancies. Keeping the mother safe is
the best way to keep the baby safe.

Pregnant women should wear the lap part of the belt
across the thighs and as snug against the hips as possible.
Keep the belt low so that it does not come across the
abdomen. That way the strong bones of the hips will take
the force if there is a collision.
