Yes it is very easy. Put your seat belt on.
Hi and welcome to the board. As far as i know, there is no way to turn it off. But i could be wrong.

i actually had that same questions back in April and figured that there was no way to turn it off....plus i drive with my seatbelt on most of the time. The only time the beeps bother me is when there is someone in the passenger seat and they don't put the seatbelt on...and i don't want to be rude and tell them to put it on...but the beep speaks for itself...dont really like it...its annoying...if anyone has a way to get around it then share

welcome aboard ! sorry to say but there is no way you can bypass that 
. what you can do is put the seatbelt on first, then sit inside your car. that will fool the system . but why would you want to drive around w/o your seatbelt on 
? things will happen, who knows?

I'm not one to judge...but I've had two friends die, one with the stick shift that went through his chest out the back, and the other with his face through the windshield. Also, my local bakery lady was one of 5 that got thrown out of their SUV through the front window and all 5 died, the other two kids survived, except one fell on to the train track, got run over by the train, had his leg amputated and survived! Anyway, good luck finding the off switch!

They are there for safety but if you must drive without them just get a buckle that will fit the slot from a different car and put it in the slot. No more noise and when you are in an accident you will probably not be covered by insurance for neglagence.
But, ones price to pay for freedsom.

I always wear my seatbelt and you should too, but if you must find a way around it, I believe there is a speaker under the dash on the driver's side that may be the source of the chime.
Not sure though.

My seatbelt safed my life 4 months ago. The idea of heezy could work but you would still have the warning in the dashboard.
