How to set off the seatbelt beep? (1)

On severaly CityBug forums you can read topics about the seatbelt beep. Personaly I always wear my seatbelt but when you don't wear it, you will hear a beep that warns you that you are not wearing the seatbelt. The seatbelt beep will sound softly for 30 seconds and very hard for 90 seconds after that the beep will stop. A lot of CityBug user don't like the seatbelt beep and there is a option to set the seatbelt beep off.

You can set off the seatbelt beep for yourself by following the instruction below.

How to set off the seatbelt beep?
• first set the ignition ON
• set the distance counter to ODO by pressing the distance counter knob
• set the ignition OFF
• set the ignition ON again
• press the distance counter knob again for 10 seconds
• close the seatbelt and keep the distance counter knob pressed in
• the display of the distance counter will show the tekst: "b - on"
• release the distance counter knob again
• press the distance counter knob again shortly to switch between:
  "b - on" and "b - off" and set it to "b - off"
• set the ignition OFF again
• modification done!!

After this modification the seatbelt beep is set off and you will no longer hear the seatbelt beep again. But you can always set the seatbelt beep ON again.

Setting the seatbelt beep off will not change anything to the other safety systems in your car. Although this modification is completely save, I can't take any responsibility for it. When you make use of the instruction, it's at your own risk.

EDIT: I found a French translation of the instruction posted on the French Planèt Citroën Forum, see this topic.
