system informs the driver that
there may be something in the
rear seat.

The door lock system may not
work if the electrical system is
compromised. Accordingly,
please train children passen-
gers regarding how to open the
car door manually before an
emergency situation arises. That
way, they would be able to open
the door manually in the event
an emergency situation arises.
CAUTION
The Rear Occupant Alert (ROA)
system uses a rear door opened
and closed history.
The history is reset after the
driver turns off ignition normal-
ly, gets off 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.
For example, after the ROA sys-
tem alert occur, if the driver do
not lock the door then ride and
drive again, the alert can occur.
