This system activates a warning lamp for about 75 seconds and an audible warning for about 8 seconds when the ignition switch is turned to the RUN position and the drivers sear belt is not buckled.

^ Drivers Seat Belt Unbuckled - Turn the ignition switch to the RUN position. The warning lamp illuminates constantly for 20 seconds, then flashes for the remaining 55 seconds.
