Rear Occupant Alert System Precautions
WARNING: On hot days, the temperature inside the vehicle can rise very quickly. Exposure of people or animals to these high temperatures for even a short time can cause death or serious heat related injuries, including brain damage. Small children are particularly at risk.
WARNING: Do not leave children or pets unattended in your vehicle. Failure to follow this instruction could result in personal injury or death.
Parking Aid Indicators
The system provides object distance indication through the information and entertainment display.
As the distance to the object decreases, the indicator waves and the lines move toward the vehicle icon. If there is no object detected, the distance indicator lines are grey.
