When the ignition key is removed and then the driver’s door is opened with turning ON the tail lamp or the headlamp, the buzzer sounds continuously to alert the driver that the lamp is still ON. However, if the tail lamp or the headlamp is turned off by the headlamp automatic-shutdown off function, the buzzer does not sound.

If the vehicle speed exceeds 8 km/h with the door-ajar, the buzzer sounds (beeps eight times) to alert the driver that the door is not properly closed. The buzzer stops sounding when the vehicle speed becomes 4 km/h or less. note Availability of the door-ajar alarm function can be selected by the customise function (Refer to ).

ETACS-ECU buzzer (sound like relay sound) sounds simultaneously with the blinks of the turn-signal lamp and the hazard lamp. note Availability of the turn-signal lamp operation tone function can be selected by the customise function (Refer to ).

SEAT BELT REMINDER FUNCTION

• When the ignition switch is turned ON with the driver’s seat belt unbuckled, the ETACS-ECU triggers a warning buzzer (repetition of a short beep sound) for 6 seconds to notify the driver that the seat belt is not fastened. The seat belt warning lamp illuminates while the buzzer is sounding.
  
• When the ETACS-ECU detects that the vehicle speed signal sent from the combination meter through CAN communication exceeds 8 km/h and the driver’s seat belt buckle is not engaged, it will trigger a warning buzzer (repetition of 5-seconds ON and 2.8-seconds OFF for 12 cycles). The seat belt warning lamp flashes in synchronization with the buzzer’s sounding.
  
• The ETACS-ECU stops the buzzer when the driver’s seat belt buckle is engaged while the warning cycle is ON.
  
• The ETACS-ECU stops the buzzer when the ignition switch turned OFF while the warning cycle is ON.
