Collision warning when exiting vehicle

When an approaching vehicle from the rear is detected at the moment a door is opened, the 'Watch for traffic' warning message will appear on the cluster, and an audible warning will sound.
Safe Exit Assist will warn the driver when your vehicle speed is below 3 km/h (1.8 mph), and the speed of the approaching vehicle from the rear is above 5 km/h (3 mph).
System linked with Electronic child safety lock

When Electric child safety lock is operating and an approaching vehicle from the rear area is detected, the rear doors cannot be unlocked even if the driver tries to unlock the rear doors using the electronic child safety lock button. The 'Check surroundings then try again' warning message will appear on the cluster.
Safe Exit Assist will warn the driver when vehicle speed is below 3 km/h (1.8 mph) and the speed of the approaching vehicle from the rear is above 5 km/h (3 mph)

If the driver presses the electronic child lock button again within 10 seconds after the warning message appears, Safe Exit Assist judges that the driver has unlocked the doors acknowledging the rear status. The electronic child safety lock will turn off (button indicator OFF) and the rear doors will unlock. Always check the surroundings before turning off the electronic child safety lock button.
