The front radar sensor (B) is located on the front of the vehicle. The camera (A) is located on the upper side of the windscreen. To keep the ELA system operating properly, be sure to observe the following:

  • Always keep the sensor area on the front of the vehicle and windscreen clean.

  • Do not strike or damage the areas around the sensors (bumper, windscreen).

  • Do not cover or attach stickers or similar objects on the front of the vehicle near the sensor area. This could cause failure or malfunction.

  • Do not attach metallic objects near the radar sensor area (brush guard, etc.). This could cause failure or malfunction.

  • Do not place reflective materials, such as white paper or a mirror, on the instrument panel. The reflection of sunlight may adversely affect the camera unit’s detection capability.

  • Do not alter, remove or paint the front of the vehicle near the sensor area. Before customising or restoring the sensor area, it is recommended that you visit a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.

The two rear radar sensors (C) for the ELA system are located near the rear bumper. Always keep the area near the radar sensors clean.

The radar sensors may be blocked by temporary ambient conditions such as splashing water, mist or fog. The blocked condition may also be caused by objects such as ice, frost or dirt obstructing the radar sensors.

Check for and remove objects obstructing the area around the radar sensors.

Do not attach stickers (including transparent material), install accessories or apply additional paint near the radar sensors.

Do not strike or damage the area around the radar sensors.

It is recommended you visit a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop if the area around the radar sensors is damaged due to a collision.
