2005 SL55 Seat Belt Light Question

Hello All,

I just picked up an 05 SL55. I noticed that the seat belt light (on the dash board) goes on when you start the car then it goes off after a couple seconds regardless if you use the seatbelt or not. Also, while driving, if you unlatch the seatbelt, the seat belt light DOES NOT go on. Is this the way it is suppose to be or is there a problem? Thanks.

They changed it starting with the 2006 model where the seat belt light stays on and keeps beeping until you hook up the seatbelt.
