    How does one turn it off? And is there a way to turn off the seatbelt warning beeper.
    If not which wires do I need to unplug.
    Car is great, 59.6 mpg after 4959 miles used mostly on trips between 160 & 480 miles. Don't plug it in all that often.

    Page 432 has instructions on how to reset the warning. Or just take it to the dealer. Complimentary maintenance for the first 2 years/25,000 miles.

    As to the seat-belt warning, only the dealer can change that, if allowed to by local laws.

    The dealer's tech didn't reset mine at the first service, but I was able to do it following the instructions in the manual. Maybe he didn't realize that it works in 5K mile increments.
