Front passenger’s seat belt warning

As a reminder to the driver, the passenger’s seat belt warning lights will illuminate for approximately 6 seconds each time you turn the EV button POWER ON or DRIVE READY position regardless of belt fastening.

If you start to drive without the seat belt fastened over 5 mph (9 km/h) and less than 12 mph (20 km/h), the corresponding warning light will illuminate. The warning light will turn off when the vehicle speed drops below 5 mph (9 km/h).

If you start to drive without the seat belt fastened when you drive 12 mph (20 km/h) and faster, the warning light will blink and warning chime will sound for approximately 100 seconds.

When the seat belt is unfastened during driving:

  1. The warning light will illuminate when the speed is over 5mph (9km/h) and less than 12 mph (20 km/h).

  2. When the speed is 12 mph (20 km/h) and faster, the warning light will blink and warning chime will sound for approximately 100 seconds.

NOTE

  • Even if the front passenger seat is not occupied, the seat belt warning light will appear for 6 seconds.

  • The front passenger’s seat belt warning may operate when luggage is placed on the front passenger seat.
