how to turn off seat belt noise?
1. turn the key to the ON position which means pressing the start button twice on the new IS since it doesn't has the key, foot off the brake
2. Press the trip reset button couple of times until the ODO is displayed (not trip A or B)
3. turn the ignition to the LOCK (OFF) position
4. unbuckle the driver's seatbelt if it was buckled.
5. turn the key to the ON position again press the start button twice. when the dash lights comes on, press and hold the trip reset button and count a slow 12 seconds. (editor's note, hold it more like 30 sec)
6. while still holding the trip reset button, buckle the driver's side seatbelt.
7.and the odometer display should read "b ON" or "b OFF". toggle the beep OFF with the trip reset.
8. the process should be completed when you unbuckle or turn the key off.

This should work for the 09's but not 100% sure... It took me a few times until it worked. Make sure you wait for the dash lights to come on before you press the trip reset button. Then hold it for a while before you buckle the seat belt. Maybe someone with an 09 can chime in on this.
Too easy not to and that nasty noise always reminds me. I just like being safe especially driving in this god forgiven state of California.
