WARNING
The Rear Occupant Alert (ROA) system
does not actually detect objects or peo -
ple 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.
CAUTION
僅 The Rear Occupant Alert (ROA) sys -
tem uses a rear door opened and
closed history.
僅 The history is reset after the vehicle is
in OFF position and you exit the vehi -
cle and lock the door remotely. So
even if a rear door does not reopen,
the ROA system alert can occur.
僅 For example, after the ROA system
alert occurs, if the driver does not lock
the door, and drives again, the alert
can occur.
