Do not sit on top 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
Anytime the safety belt is buckled and then unbuckled during an ignition
ON cycle, Belt Minder will be disabled for that ignition cycle only.
