Several warning and indicator lamps will light up briefly as a functional check when the ignition is switched on. They will switch off after a few seconds.
A signal tone will be given for a few seconds if the seat belts are not fastened
as the car pulls off and reaches a speed of more than approximately 25 km/h (15

lamp

When the ignition is switched on, the
warning lamp will not go out until
the driver and front passenger fasten their seat belts.
