Reasons given... Consider...

“Traffic is light” Nearly 1 of 2 deaths occur in single-vehicle

crashes, many when no other vehicles are around.

“Belts wrinkle my

clothes”

Possibly, but a serious crash can do much more

than wrinkle your clothes, particularly if you are

unbelted.

“The people I’m

with don’t wear

belts”

Set 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.

“I have an air bag” Air bags offer greater protection when used with

safety belts. Frontal airbags are not designed to

inflate in rear and side crashes or rollovers.

“I’d rather be

thrown clear”

Not a good idea. People who are ejected are 40

times more likely to DIE. Safety belts help

prevent ejection, WE CAN’T “PICK OUR CRASH”.

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, the BeltMinder will be disabled for that ignition cycle

only.

Deactivating/activating the BeltMinder feature

Before following the procedure, make sure that:

• The ignition switch and headlamp control are in the OFF position and

all the doors are closed.

• The parking brake is set and the gearshift is in P (Park) (automatic

transmission) or neutral (manual transmission).

• The driver’s safety belt is unbuckled.

Read steps1-9beforeproceeding with the deactivation/activation

procedure.
