Apply the parking brake before deactivating/activating the belt minder.

Place the gear selector lever in PARK or NEUTRAL (manual transaxle).

Close all the vehicle doors.

Unbuckle the driver safety belt.

Deactivating/Activating

Turn the ignition switch to the RUN position. (Do not start the engine.)

Wait until the safety belt warning lamp turns off (approximately 1 to 2 minutes).

3. NOTE: Steps 3 must be completed within 50 seconds after the safety belt warning indicator turns off.

For seating position being disabled, at a moderate speed, buckle then unbuckle the safety belt 9 times, ending with the safety belt in the unbuckled state. After this step, the air bar warning indicator illuminates for 3 seconds.

Within 10 seconds after the air bar warning indicator turns off, at a moderate speed, buckle then unbuckle the safety belt.
