Disable door ajar alarm?

When I went to the dealership to change the remote unlock functions (one press to open all the doors, time out 'til auto-relocking, etc.) I was with the guy when he came out with the Techstream tool. It didn't even show an option for the seat-belt alarm. Everything else that the owner's manual said could be dealer customized was on the screen though... so you mileage may vary when you take it to the dealership.

Seat belts are in the "warning" section of the parameters, whereas the locking related ones are in the "door lock" section.
