Display in the instrument cluster

The indicator light lights up and a signal sounds. Make sure that the safety belts are positioned correctly. The safety belt reminder can also be activated if objects are placed on the front passenger seat.

Safety belt reminder for rear seats

General information

The safety belt reminder is automatically activated each time the engine starts.

The safety belt reminder is also activated when a passenger unbuckles a rear seat safety belt during the trip.

In some country versions, the safety belt reminder is also issued when the safety belt is not buckled and heavy objects are on the rear seats.

Display in the instrument cluster

The indicator light in the instrument cluster illuminates after the engine is started.

Green: the safety belt is buckled on the corresponding rear seat.

Red: the safety belt is not buckled on the corresponding rear seat.

Safety mode

In critical situations, for instance during an emergency stop, the front safety belts tighten automatically.

If the situation passes without an accident occurring, the belt tension relaxes.

If the belt tension does not loosen automatically, stop the vehicle and unbuckle the safety belt using the red button in the safety belt buckle. Fasten the safety belt before continuing on your trip.
