Talking

2) if no one is sitting in your frt psgr seat, the light SHOULD advise "Passenger Side Airbag Off"

1) if i remember right, while the car's ignition is in the ON position (engine can be started or not, if on, just be at a dead stop), just twist your left gauge **** and hold it left or right. then you will be able to adjust the RPM at which it lights up and I think the 2nd option is whether or not you want it to beep (again turn left or right).

ah...here is something from another forum
Qouted from the manual:
Setting the alarm-level engine speed
1. Turn the REV setting **** clockwise or counterclockwise, then release it and let it return to its initial position. The buzzer will sound. the REV alarm system is now ready to be set.
2. Turn the REV setting **** to select the desired alarm-level engine speed. At this time, the outside temperature indicator will show the engine-speed setting.
*Counterclockwise(-): speed setting changes downward by 100 rpm
*Clockwise(+): speed setting changes upward by 100 rpm
The speed setting will stop changing if it reaches 0 rpm or the maximum engine speed.
Select engine speed range
The alarm-level engine speed can be set(in 100 rpm steps) within the range from 2,000 rpm to 7,000 rpm. The indicator show the setting as follows:
Speed.........Indication
0....................00
2,000..............20
2,100 .............21
7,000 .............70
Approximately 3 seconds after you stop turning the ****, the REV alarm system will automatically enter its next setting mode (step 3 below), in which you can activate or deactivate the buzzer.
3. Activate or deactivate the buzzer as desired using the REV setting ****.
*Turn the **** clockwise (+) to activate the buzzer. The indicator will show "ON" and the buzzer will sound 3 times. With the buzzer activated, engin-speed warnings are given by both the REV indicator light and the buzzer.
*Turn the **** counterclockwise (-) to deactivate the buzzer. The indicator will show "--" and the buzzer will not sound. With the buzzer deactivated, engine-speed warnings are given only by the REV indicator light.
Approximately 3 seconds after you stop turning the ****, the buzzer will sound once to indicate the end of the setting procedure. The indicator will return to showing the outside temperature. Also, the tachometer needle will return to approximately "0".

Note:
*The REV alarm system does not operate while settings are being entered.
*The speed-setting mode is canceled if the ignition switch is turned to OFF or the vehicle starts moving before the setting procedure is finished.
*Speed setting is impossible when the vehicle is moving.
*The set engine speed may differ from the engine speed shown by the tachometer. Use the engin speed shown by the tachometer as a rough guide.

DEACTIVATING THE REV ALARM SYSTEM
To deactivate the REV alarm system's REV indicator light and buzzer functions, set the alarm-level engine speed to 0 rpm.
