              Except  Mexico
    If the driver's seat belt is not fastened 
when the ignition is switched ON, a beep 
sound will be heard for about 6 seconds. If 
the driver or the front passenger's seat belt 
is not fastened and the vehicle is driven at 
a speed faster than about 20 km/h 
(12 mph), a beep sound will be heard 
again for a specifi ed period of time.
  Until a seat belt is fastened or a given 
period of time has elapsed, the beep sound 
will not stop even if the vehicle speed falls 
below 20 km/h (12 mph).
   NOTE
    To allow the front passenger occupant 
classifi  cation sensor to function 
properly, do not place and sit on an 
additional seat cushion on the front 
passenger's seat. The sensor may not 
function properly because the additional 
seat cushion could cause sensor 
interference.
    If a small child is seated on the front 
passenger's seat, the warning beep may 
not operate.
     
  Mexico

20 km/h (12 mph) with the driver or front 
passenger's seat belt unfastened, a warning 
beep sounds continuously. If the seat belt 
remains unfastened, the beep sound stops 
once and then continues for about 
90 seconds. The beep stops after the driver 
or front passenger's seat belt is fastened.
  Until a seat belt is fastened or a given 
period of time has elapsed, the beep sound 
will not stop even if the vehicle speed falls 
below 20 km/h (12 mph).
   NOTE
   Placing heavy items on the front 
passenger's seat may cause the front 
passenger's seat belt warning function 
to operate depending on the weight of 
the item.
   To allow the front passenger seat weight 
sensor to function properly, do not place 
and sit on an additional seat cushion on 
the front passenger's seat. The sensor 
may not function properly because the 
additional seat cushion could cause 
sensor interference.

passenger's seat, the warning beep may 
not operate.

be heard continuously in the cabin to 
notify the driver that the ignition has not 
been switched OFF (STOP). Under this 
condition, the keyless entry system will 
not operate, the vehicle cannot be locked, 
and the battery voltage will be depleted.
