Warning/Indicator Lights and Warning Sounds
Seat Belt Warning Beep
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 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
specified 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 passenger occupant
classification sensor to function
properly, do not place and sit on
an additional seat cushion on the
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
passenger's seat, the warning beep may
not operate.
Mexico
If the vehicle speed exceeds about 20 km/h
(12 mph) with the driver or 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
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 passenger's
seat may cause the passenger's seat belt
warning function to operate depending
on the weight of the item.
To allow the passenger seat weight
sensor to function properly, do not place
and sit on an additional seat cushion
on the 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
passenger's seat, the warning beep may
not operate.
Ignition Not Switched Off (STOP)
Warning Beep
If the driver's door is opened with the
ignition switched to ACC, a beep will
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.

(With the advanced keyless
function)

seconds to notify the driver that the key is
in the trunk. In this case, take out the key
by pressing the electric trunk lid opener
and opening the trunk lid. The key taken
out of the trunk may not operate because
its functions have been temporarily
stopped. To restore the key's functions,

(With the advanced keyless
function)
