Rear Occupant Alert (ROA)
System
The Rear Occupant Alert (ROA) is pro
-
vided to help prevent exiting the vehicle
with a rear passenger left in the vehicle.
僅 When you open the front door after
opening and closing the rear door and
turning off the engine, the "Check rear
seat for passengers or belongings"
warning message appears on the
cluster.
You can activate or deactivate the ROA
from the User settings mode in the clus
-
ter LCD display.
The option can be found under the fol
-
lowing menu:
1. Press the MODE button ( ) several
times on the steering wheel until 'User
settings' menu appears on the LCD.
2. Select 'Convenience → Rear Occupant
Alert' with the MOVE switch ( / )
and the OK button on the steering
wheel.
If your vehicle is equipped with the info
-
tainment system, the option can be
found under the following menu:
1. Select 'Settings' on the infotainment
system.
2. Select 'Vehicle → Convenience →
Rear Occupant Alert' on the infotain

ment system screen.
The infotainment system may change
after software updates. For more infor
-
mation, refer to the manual provided in
the infotainment system and the quick
reference guide.
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.
僅 The Rear Occupant Alert (ROA) sys
-
tem uses a rear door opened and
closed history.
僅 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.
僅 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.
