Safe Exit Assist (SEA)
Safe Exit Assist can help prevent passengers from opening their door by displaying a warning message on the Instrument Cluster and sounding an audible warning when a vehicle is detected, approaching from behind, and after your vehicle has stopped.
In addition, when the electronic child safety lock button is in the LOCK position and an approaching vehicle from the rear area is detected, the electronic child safety lock button will not unlock even if the driver presses the button to prevent the rear doors from opening.
To turn SEA on:
- Go to Vehicle Settings in the Infotainment System
- Press the SETUP key or the onscreen SETUP button
- Select VEHICLE
- Then select DRIVER ASSISTANCE,
- Under DRIVING SAFETY, select SAFE EXIT
Quick Tips:
The Warning Volume can be adjusted in the Vehicle Settings by pressing Setup, Vehicle, Driver Assistance. Then press Warning Method. You can also adjust the Haptic Warning.
Reminders:
SEA may not detect all objects and the occupants should always be mindful of their surroundings
