Front Seat Belt Warning Light and Warning Beeper
There are four warning lights in the car. Two of them are in the instrument panel and the other two lights are in the ceiling behind
the rearview mirror. Each warning light will go on for about two seconds, when the ignition switch is turned on.
Warning Light Indicators Either Door Open
The warning light in the instrument panel will come on when the ignition is switched on. The beeper will also sound for approximately
six seconds. Confirm which door is open and close the door
completely, the lights will go out.
If either door is opened while the car is being driven, the beeper and
all four warning lights will come on and stay on. If this happens, pull
off the highway, stop the car immediately and close whichever door is open. The warning lights and beeper should go off.
