How to ?

Does anyone know what the sequence is to disable the seat belt chime when not locked in ? I just bought a 2014 Lariat and can't find it anywhere.

Thanks Much !

Stormtech as much as I appreciate your smart $%^ answer, I have not taken possession of the truck yet, only get it next week and did not realize it was in the manual. Just pointing out it was in there is just as easy as being a ****.

While I wouldn't condone not wearing seat belt you can do this as I did this on my 2013 FX-4.

See page 46 of 2013 owners manual "Deactivating and Activating the Belt-Minder Feature".

Here you go

Preparation
Before deactivating/activating the belt minder, set the parking brake.
Place the transmission range selector lever in PARK.
Place the ignition switch in the OFF position.
Close all the vehicle doors.
Unbuckle the driver and passenger safety belts.

Deactivating/Activating
Turn the ignition switch to the RUN position. (Do not start the engine.)
Wait until the safety belt warning lamp turns off (approximately 1 minute).
NOTE: Step 3 must be completed within 50 seconds after the safety belt warning lamp turns off or the procedure must be repeated.
For the seating position being disabled, buckle then unbuckle the safety belt 9 times, ending with the safety belt unbuckled.
NOTE: After Step 3, the restraint system warning indicator lamp turns on for 3 seconds.
Within 10 seconds of the safety belt warning indicator turning on, buckle then unbuckle the safety belt.
The beltminder activation or deactivation is confirmed by the following sequences:
If the beltminder is enabled, this procedure will disable the beltminder for that specific seating position. The safety belt warning indicator lamp will flash 4 times per second for 3 seconds to confirm that the deactivation procedure was successful.
If the beltminder is disabled, this procedure will enable the beltminder for the specific seating postion. The safety belt warning indicator lamp will flash 4 times per second for 3 seconds followed by a second series of 4 flashes per second for 3 seconds to confirm that the activation procedure was successful.
After confirmation, the deactivation/activation procedure is complete.
