Warning/Indicator Lights and Warning Sounds

Warning Sound is Activated

Seat Belt Warning Beep

Front seat

If the vehicle speed exceeds about 20 km/h (12 mph) with the driver or front passenger's seat belt unfastened, a warning beep sounds continuously. If the seat belt remains unfastened, the beep sound stops once and then continues for about 90 seconds. The beep stops after the driver or front passenger's seat belt is fastened.

 

  • Some models do not have the seat belt warning beep for the front passenger's seat.

  • To allow the front passenger occupant classification sensor to function properly, do not place and sit on an additional seat cushion on the front passenger seat. The sensor may not function properly because the additional seat cushion could cause sensor interference.

  • When a small child sits on the front passenger seat, it is possible that the warning beep will not operate.

The warning beep only sounds if a seat belt is unfastened after being fastened.

Request Switch Inoperable Warning Beep (With the advanced keyless function)

If the request switch is pressed with the door open or ajar, or the ignition is not switched OFF with a key being carried, a beep will be heard outside for about 2 seconds to notify the driver that the door or liftgate cannot be locked.

i-stop Warning Beep

  • If the driver's door is opened while engine idling is stopped, the warning sound operates to notify the driver that engine idling is stopped. It stops when the driver's door is closed.

Excessive Speed Warning

If the vehicle speed exceeds the speed limit sign displayed on the active driving display/multi-information display, the warning sound is activated and the area around the speed limit sign displayed on the active driving display/multi-information display flashes 10 times in amber, and if the vehicle speed continues to exceed the displayed speed limit sign, the indication stops flashing and remains on.
