- Power on the car to IG-ON or READY. IG-ON will do for this purpose.
- Using the Trip/ODO button, set the Trip/ODO display to ODO - not Trip A or Trip B
- Power off the car.
- Now power the car to READY (brake on). This is required so that step 6 works correctly.
- Immediately, within 6 seconds of powering on, press and hold the Trip/ODO button for 20 seconds or more. Do not release, just hold it for 20 seconds.
- Then WHILE STILL HOLDING ODO button, shift the "gear" selector from Park to R, then press the Park button. Now release the Trip/ODO button.
- If the last step was successful, b on or b off should be displayed in the location where the Trip Odometer or Odometer is normally displayed. b on is beep on, and b off is beep off.
- Press the Trip/ODO button to toggle the mode to the one you want.
- Now power the car off to exit the toggle mode.
- Power the car on to READY and confirm the reverse beep status by shifting to R. The beep should not be audible if b off was selected, and should be audible if b on was selected.
The above procedure turns off the back up beep. To turn off the driver seat-belt beep, instead of shifting in step 6, latch your seat-belt. This takes some contortions since you have to do it with your left hand since your right hand is still holding the ODO button. Be prepared by pulling the seat-belt out all the way and holding the strap in your teeth so there will be no tension. To turn off the passenger seat-belt beep, at step 6 have the passenger sitting in the passenger seat latch that seat-belt buckle. Always wear your seat belt when driving on a public road.
