        Tech Tips

        *: pre-crash safety city buzzer operation is activated.

        The warning message differs by vehicle specification.

    3. Front Seat Belt Warning Function


      1. When the power switch is turned on (IG), this system detects the condition of the seat belts based on the signals from the driver and front passenger seat belt buckle switches and the occupant detection sensor.

      2. On models except models for G.C.C. countries, the buzzer sounds when the vehicle speed exceeds 20 km/h (12.4 mph) to emphasize the fact that the seat belt is unbuckled. After 30 seconds, the sound changes for emphasis. The sound continues for 90 seconds. Once a buzzer begins to sound, it will continue until the seat belt is buckled or the power switch is turned off.

      3. On models for G.C.C. countries, when the seat belt is unbuckled, the buzzer sounds 5 times 1.8 seconds after the power switch is turned on (IG). The buzzer sounds when the vehicle speed exceeds 20 km/h (12.4 mph) to emphasize the fact that the seat belt is unbuckled. After 9.6 seconds, the sound changes for emphasis. The sound continues for 20 seconds. Once a buzzer begins to sound, it will continue until the seat belt is buckled or the power switch is turned off.

        Tech Tips

        Upon receiving a request from a user who cannot wear a seat belt for a special reason, the buzzer warning can be canceled using the Global TechStraem (GTS). For details, refer to the Repair Manual.

      4. Occupant Detection Sensor (Except models for Korea)


        • The occupant detection sensor, which is enclosed in the seat cushion of the front passenger seat, is used to detect whether or not the front passenger seat is occupied.

        • This sensor consists of a construction in which 2 electrode sheets sandwich a spacer. When the occupant is seated, the electrode sheets come in contact with each other through the hole provided in the spacer portion, thus enabling the current to flow.

        • Thus, the sensor detects whether or not an occupant is seated in the front passenger seat.

      5. Occupant Detection Sensor (Models for Korea)


        • The occupant detection sensors are installed on brackets connecting the seat rail and the seat frame. The resistance values of these sensors, which vary in accordance with the distortion that acts on the brackets, are output to the occupant detection ECU.

        • The occupant detection ECU constantly monitors the weight on the front passenger seat, and makes a judgment in accordance with the signals from the occupant detection sensor and the state of the front passenger seat belt buckle switch.

        • The occupant detection ECU transmits the signals to the airbag sensor assembly.

    4. Rear Passengers Seat Belt Reminder Function (Models with Rear Passengers Seat Belt Reminder Function)

      B00209UC01
      *1 Telltale Marker - -

      1. If the meter ECU receives an off signal from the rear door courtesy light switch assembly when the power switch is turned on (IG), a rear passenger seat belt reminder display is shown on the telltale light assembly. At this time, if the meter ECU receives an on signal from a rear seat belt buckle switch, it will extinguish the telltale light corresponding to the rear seat belt buckle switch which sent the on signal. In addition, the rear passenger seat belt reminder display will automatically turn off approximately 34 seconds after the display.

      2. If any of the rear seat belts are released while the vehicle speed is above 20 km/h (12 mph), the rear passengers seat belt reminder illuminates and the buzzer is sounded. After 30 seconds, the sound change for emphasis. The sound continues for 90 seconds. Once the buzzer begins to sound, it will continue until the rear seat belt is buckled or the ignition switch is turned off.
