Dodge 2004 Ram SRT-10 Automobile User Manual


 
NOTE: These devices are not a substitute for proper seat
belt placement by the occupant. The seat belt still must be
worn snugly and positioned properly.
The pretensioners are triggered by the airbag control
module. Like the airbags, the pretensioners are single use
items. After a collision that is severe enough to deploy
the airbags and pretensioners, both must be replaced.
Enhanced Driver Seat Belt Reminder System
(BeltAlert)
If the drivers seat belt has not been buckled within 60
seconds of starting the vehicle and if the vehicle speed is
greater than 5 mph (8 km/h), the Enhanced Warning
System (BeltAlert) will alert the driver to buckle their seat
belt. The driver should also instruct all other occupants to
buckle their seat belts. Once the warning is triggered, the
Enhanced Warning System (BeltAlert) will continue to
chime and flash the Seat Belt Warning Light for 96
seconds or until the drivers seat belt is buckled. The
Enhanced Warning System (BeltAlert) will be reactivated
if the drivers seat belt is unbuckled for more than 10
seconds and the vehicle speed is greater than 5 mph (8
km/h).
The Enhanced Warning System (BeltAlert) can be en-
abled or disabled by your authorized dealer or by
following these steps:
NOTE: The following steps must occur within the first
60 seconds of the ignition switch being turned to the ON
position. DaimlerChrysler does not recommend deacti-
vating the Enhanced Warning System (BeltAlert).
NOTE: If the drivers door is open a continuous chime
will sound and override the single chime.
1. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position and
buckle the drivers seat belt.
2. Start the engine and wait for the Seat Belt Warning
Light to turn off.
