Fasten Safety Belt Warning

The multifunction alarm module senses that the driver's seat belt is not buckled (signal is low). The multifunction alarm module sends a message to the IPC requesting illumination of the seat belt indicator. The seat belt chime sounds at the rate of 50 pulses per minute (slow rate chime) for a duration of approximately 6 seconds. The fasten safety belt warning sounds and the seat belt indicator illuminates when the following occurs:

• Ignition switch transitions to ON.
• The seat belt switch signal to the multifunction alarm module is low.

If the seat belt is buckled when the ignition is turned on, the chime will not sound. If the seat belt is buckled while the chime is sounding, the chime stops.
