Seat belt warning light dashboard indicator

Seat Belt Warning Light

On cars with side airbags and belt tensioners the seatbelt warning system is automatically included. The warning system alerts you if the seatbelts are not fastened when the car is started. Relevant symbols appear on the multifunction display for 30 seconds after the ignition is turned on. A light indicates a passenger has fastened their seatbelt properly, while an empty seat shows the seatbelt is still to be secured. The system will also go into action if it detects an unfastened seatbelt when the car is travelling at over 15mph. The seatbelt indicator flashes for 30 seconds and a warning signal is sounded.

The seat belt reminder indicator on dashboard will light up when the driver or the passenger is seated without fasting the seat belts. This symbol will be accompanied by an alarm chime. Although the chime disappears after some time, the symbol will continue to appear on dashboard until both the seat belts are fastened properly.

If the seat belt reminder indicator symbol remains to lit even after fastening the seat belts, there would be a problem in this reminder system. But once the seat belts are fastened you will be protected despite the symbol is still being on.   

seat belt indicator can light up due to a malfunctioning buckle, which doesn't fasten securely to the seat belt slot. Look inside the slot for dirt and clean it well. even if the buckle is worn it won't fasten to the buckle securely.
