The audible warnings alert the driver of a system concern or a critical vehicle condition. The radio generates the audible warnings through the left front speaker. The radio receives audible warning requests via the serial data circuit. If the radio receives multiple audible warning requests, the warning with the highest priority sounds first. On vehicles with RPO UQA the audio amplifier, instead of the radio, generates the audible warnings and receives audible warnings requests via the serial data circuit. Either the radio or the audio amplifier is the chime producer. The following lists the audible warning priority and the pulse rate:

Fast rate chime (200 pulses per minute)
Medium rate chime (150 pulses per minute)
Slow rate chime (50 pulses per minute)
Single chime

Door Ajar Warning

The chime producer activates the door ajar audible warning as requested by the IPC. The IPC sends a serial data message to the chime producer indicating the chime frequency and duration. The door ajar warning sounds and the appropriate DOOR AJAR indicator illuminates in the Driver Information Center when the following occurs:

•	The body control module (BCM) determines that a door is open. The IPC receives a serial data message from the BCM indicating the door ajar status.

•	The vehicle is not in park. The IPC receives a serial data message from the ECM indicating the gear position.

•	The vehicle speed is greater than 8.05 km/h (5 MPH). The IPC uses the vehicle speed signal circuit (4000 pulses/mile) from the ECM in order to calculate the vehicle speed.

Fasten Safety Belt Warning

The chime producer activates the fasten safety belt audible warning as requested by the IPC. The IPC sends a serial data message to the chime producer indicating the frequency and duration. The fasten safety belt warning sounds and the fasten safety belt indicator illuminates when the following occurs:

•	The ignition switch transitions to ON.

•	The inflatable restraint sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) detects that the driver's seat belt is not buckled. The IPC receives a serial data message from the SDM indicating the driver's seat belt status.

If the seat belt is buckled when the ignition is turned on, the chime does not sound. If the seat belt is buckled while the chime is sounding, the chime stops. If the seat belt is unbuckled after the initial transition to ON, the chime does not sound.

Key-In-Ignition Warning

The chime producer activates the key-in-ignition audible warning as requested by the IPC. The IPC sends a serial data message to the chime producer indicating the chime frequency and duration. The key-in-ignition warning sounds when the following occurs:

•	The ignition switch is OFF.

•	The body control module (BCM) determines that the driver's door is open. The IPC receives a serial data message from the BCM indicating the door ajar status.

•	The BCM determines that the key-in-ignition switch is closed. The IPC receives a serial data message from the BCM indicating the key-in-ignition status.

Lights On Warning

The chime producer activates the lights on warning as requested by the body control module (BCM). The BCM sends a serial data message to the chime producer indicating the chime frequency and duration. The lights on warning sounds when the following occurs:

•	The ignition is OFF.

•	The BCM determines that the driver's door is open.

•	The BCM determines that the headlamp switch is in the park or head position.
