Main Menu Table Of Contents Additional Information About Your Seat Belts Seat Belt System Components Your seat belt system includes lap/ shoulder belts in both seating positions. The seat belts are also equipped with automatic seat belt tensioners. This system uses the same sensors as the front airbags to monitor whether the seat belts are latched or unlatched, and how much weight is on the passenger's seat (see page 24 ). The seat belt system includes an indicator on the instrument panel and a beeper to remind you and your passenger to fasten your seat belts. This system monitors the seat belts. If you turn the ignition switch to the ON (II) position before your seat belt is fastened, the beeper will sound and the indicator will flash. If your seat belt is not fastened before the beeper stops, the indicator will stop flashing but remain on. If a passenger does not fasten their seat belt, the indicator will come on about 6 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to the ON (II) position. If either the driver or passenger does not fasten their seat belt, the beeper will sound and the indicator will flash again at regular intervals. When no one is sitting in the passenger's seat, or a child or small adult is riding there, the indicator should not come on and the beeper should not sound. If the indicator comes on or the beeper sounds when the driver's seat belt is latched and there is no passenger and no items on the passenger's seat, something may be interfering with the monitoring system. Look for and remove: Any items under the passenger's seat. Any objects hanging on the seat. Any object(s) touching the rear of the seat-back. If no obstructions are found, have your vehicle checked by a dealer. 16 2008 S2000
