Alert
When the driver turns off the engine and 
opens the driver’s door after opening and 
closing a rear door, a warning message 
'Check rear seats' appears.
 WARNING
Rear Occupant Alert provides 
information to the driver to check 
the rear seats but it does not detect 
whether there is an object or passenger 
in the back seats. Always make sure to 
check the rear seats before you leave 
the vehicle. 
 CAUTION
The door open and close history is 
initialized when the driver turns off 
the engine and locks the vehicle 
door. Even though the rear door is not 
opened again, an alert  may occur if the 
previous history is not initialized. For 
example, if the driver does not lock the 
vehicle door and opens the door to get 
off after the alert sounds, the alert may 
go off.
