WHAT IS THE REAR OCCUPANT
ALERT SYSTEM
The rear occupant alert system monitors
vehicle conditions and notifies you to check
for rear seat occupants when you switch the
ignition off. The notifications can be in the
form of warnings inside the vehicle and
sounding of the horn if activated for a short
period of time.
HOW DOES THE REAR OCCUPANT
ALERT SYSTEM WORK
The system monitors the activity of the
buckle on the rear seatbelt and the opening
and closing of the rear doors to indicate the
potential presence of an occupant in the rear
seat.
When Child Seat Installed is selected, the
system monitors only the opening and
closing of the rear doors to indicate the
potential presence of an occupant in the rear
seat.
When Child Seat Installed is not selected,
the system monitors the rear seatbelt buckle
activity and the opening and closing of the
rear doors to indicate the potential presence
of an occupant in the rear seat.
A message displays in the touchscreen and
an audible warning sounds when you switch
the ignition off after any of the following
conditions have been met:
• A rear door is opened or closed while
the ignition is on.
• You switch the ignition on within 15
minutes of a rear door opening and
closing.
• You switch the ignition on within 15
minutes of the alert having displayed or
sounded.
If you do not open a rear door within a short
period of time of the message appearing in
the center display, the first audible warning
sounding and driver door open to close, the
horn sounds for a short period of time.
Note: Horn sounds only when the Rear
Occupant Alert is set to Alert & Horn. If you
change the setting, then there is no horn
sound.
