Rear Occupant Alert (ROA) system
The Rear Occupant Alert (ROA) is provided to help prevent exiting the vehicle with a rear passenger left in the vehicle.
-
When you turn off the engine and open the driver’s door, a warning message appears on the cluster.
When the following conditions:
-
After driving the vehicle, and
-
A rear door was opened and closed either before or after driving
-
 OCL4M035124N |
 OCL4M035093N |
|
You can activate or deactivate the ROA system by selecting on the infotainment system.
The ROA system does not actually detect objects or people in the rear seat. By using a rear door opened and closed history, the system informs the driver that there may be something in the rear seat.
The ROA system uses a rear door opened and closed history.
The history is reset after the driver turns off ignition normally, exits the vehicle and locks the door remotely using the remote keyless entry. So even if a rear door does not reopen, the ROA system alert can occur.
For example, after the ROA system alert occurs, if the driver does not lock the door, and drives again, the alert can occur.
The door lock system may not work if the electrical system is compromised. Accordingly, please train children passengers regarding how to open the car door manually before an emergency situation arises. That way, they would be able to open the door manually in the event an emergency situation arises.
