Question Rear Seat Occupancy Sensor

Hello gents, have a question about 2021 F250. When I turn the truck off it keeps telling me to "check the rear seats for occupants", has anyone disabled this?
Loving this truck!

On the GM products the warning is tied to whether you opened the rear door. There is no sensor, it just assumes if you opened the rear door before you started the truck that you might have put a child in the back seat, so it reminds you not to leave the child back there. It was in response to some of the bad situations with children left in hot or cold vehicles and perishing.

I assume it works the same way on Ford as it does on GM.

I searched the forum, and checked the forscan thread, nothing about disabling or it existing and being annoying. Definitely could simply be related to doors. Thank you for the help!

Its in the Settings menu, on the Sync Screen. I believe its the first item and you can toggle it off
