Rear Seat Reminder Alert (Rsra); Electronic Brake Control (Ebc) System - RAM 1500 2025 Owner's Manual

236 SAFETY
WARNING!
The DDD system is an aid for driving and does not
relieve the driver of the responsibility of driving the
vehicle. Always drive alert and get plenty of rest
before driving. If you experience fatigue while driving,
do not wait for the DDD to intervene with a warning.
Choose a safe and secure location where you can pull
over safely for a break. Only return to the road when
you are in the right physical and mental condition to
prevent endangering yourself and others.
System Operation
Using feedback obtained from the driver's steering
patterns, any buttons/switches that are pressed, and
from the front camera, the system implements two
operating logics:
●
The first operating logic takes the driving style into
account, observing the road and detecting to what
extent the driver can continue driving with few lane
crossing events.
●
The second operating logic measures the time spent
behind the wheel with the vehicle speed above 40
mph (60 km/h) and below 100 mph (160 km/h).
If the driving style indicates that the driver is unable
to follow the road trajectory and respect the horizontal
lane markings while within the operating speed range
of the system, a pop up will display on the instrument
cluster display to suggest that the driver should stop for
a break. An audible signal will also sound.
If the driver accepts the suggestion provided by the
system by pushing the "OK" button on the left side of
the steering wheel, the message will disappear from the
display.
If the driver does not acknowledge the warning, it will
be displayed for 60 seconds and then disappear.
NOTE:
In the event of a DDD system failure, a dedicated
message will appear in the instrument cluster display.
DDD Warning Message
R S R A
EAR EAT EMINDER LERT
RSRA alerts of the possible presence of an object,
passenger, or pet in the rear seats through a visual
and auditory notification. When the system is activated,
it displays the message "Check Rear Seat" on the
instrument cluster display and sounds an auditory
alert upon the driver placing the ignition in the OFF
position to exit the vehicle. The system will activate
automatically if a rear door is opened within 10 minutes
of the ignition being placed in the ON/RUN position.
RSRA should be used as a reminder to check the rear
seats: it does not directly detect objects, passengers, or
pets and is only activated when the previous conditions
are met.
To enable or disable RSRA, see
●
Before exiting a vehicle, always come to
a complete stop, then shift the automatic
transmission into PARK and apply the parking
brake.
●
Always make sure the keyless ignition node is in
the OFF position, key fob is removed from the
vehicle and vehicle is locked.
●
Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle. Leaving children in
a vehicle unattended is dangerous for a number
of reasons. A child or others could be seriously or
fatally injured. Children should be warned not to
touch the parking brake, brake pedal or the gear
selector.
●
Do not leave children or animals inside parked
vehicles in hot weather. Interior heat buildup may
(RSRA)
cause serious injury or death.
