Brake system warning
To confirm the brake
system warning light is
functional, it will
momentarily illuminate
when the ignition is turned to the ON position
(alternatively for some vehicles when the ignition is
moved from the ON position to START position, the
light will momentarily illuminate prior to reaching
the START position). It also illuminates if the
parking brake is engaged. If the brake system
warning light does not illuminate as described, seek
service immediately. Illumination after the parking
brake is released indicates low brake fluid level or a
brake system malfunction and the brake system
should be serviced immediately by a qualified
technician. Refer toBrakesin theDrivingchapter
for more information.

Reasons given... Consider...
ªBelts wrinkle my clothesº Possibly, but a serious crash
can do much more than wrinkle
your clothes, particularly if you
are unbelted.
ªThe people I'm with
don't wear beltsºSet the example, teen deaths
occur 4 times more often in
vehicles with TWO or MORE
people. Children and younger
brothers/sisters imitate behavior
they see.
ªI have an air bagº Air bags offer greater protection
when used with safety belts.
Frontal airbags are not designed
to inflate in rear and side
crashes or rollovers.
ªI'd rather be thrown
clearºNot a good idea.Peoplewho
areejected are 40 times
more likely to DIE.Safety
belts help prevent ejection, WE
CAN'T ªPICK OUR CRASHº.
Do not sit on top of a buckled safety belt to
avoid the Belt Minder chime. Sitting on the
safety belt will increase the risk of injury in an
accident. To disable (one-time) or deactivate the
Belt Minder feature please follow the directions
stated below.
One time disable
Any time the safety belt is buckled and then
unbuckled during an ignition ON cycle, BeltMinder
will be disabled for that ignition cycle only.
Deactivating/activating the BeltMinder feature
Read steps1-9thoroughly before proceeding
with the deactivation/activation programming
procedure.
