Welcome aboard.
That chime is called a "belt minder" look in your manual for the steps to deactivating it. You can also seach the forum using the search feature. I've seen many write-ups about it.
once again welcome and enjoy.

Hmm, that should have disabled it.
Mine don't have a drivers and passenger chime. It really wouldn't make since to have one on the passenger because there is not always a passenger, are you sure it's not another minder of some kind?
