■ Rear seat reminder function

In order to remind you not to forget luggage, etc. in the rear seat, when the

engine switch is turned off after any of the following conditions are met, a

buzzer will sound and a message will be displayed on the multi-information

display for approximately 6 seconds.

● The engine is started within 10 minutes after opening and closing a rear

door.

● A rear door has been opened and closed after the engine was started.

However, if a rear door is opened and then closed within approximately 2 sec-

onds, the rear seat reminder function may not operate.

The rear seat reminder function determines that luggage, etc. has been

placed in a rear seat based on opening and closing of a rear door. Therefore,

depending on the situation, the rear seat reminder function may not operate

and you may still forget luggage, etc. in the rear seat, or it may operate

unnecessarily.

The rear seat reminder function can be enabled/disabled. (P. 567)
