Rear Occupant Alert (ROA)
Rear Occupant Alert is provided to help prevent the driver from leaving with any rear
passenger left in the vehicle.
System setting
To use Rear Occupant Alert, it can be enabled from the Settings menu in the infotainment
system. Select:
Setup > Vehicle > Convenience > Rear Occupant Alert
Information
The infotainment system may change after software updates. For more information, refer
to the manual provided in the infotainment system and the quick reference guide.
System operation
When you turn off the engine and open the driver's door after opening and closing the
rear door, the 'Check rear seats' warning message appears on the instrument cluster.
WARNING
Always check the rear seats before you leave the vehicle.
The Rear Occupant Alert system does not actually detect the presence of objects or
occupants in the rear seat but just informs you to check the rear seat by using the record
of the rear door opening and closing.
Information
The record of the rear door opening and closing resets only when the driver turns the
vehicle off and locks the vehicle door. Even if the rear door has not been reopened,
an alert may occur if the door record is not reset. For example, if the driver opens the
door and exits the vehicle again without locking the door after the Rear Occupant Alert
operates, the alert may occur again.
