Nissan Juke 2022-present Owners Manual

Automatic Automatic Brake Hold (where fitted)

The automatic brake hold function maintains the braking force without the driver having to depress the brake pedal when the vehicle is stopped (for example, at a set of traffic lights or intersection). As soon as the driver depresses the accelerator pedal again with the vehicle in gear, the automatic brake hold function is deactivated and the braking force is released. The operating status of the automatic brake hold can be displayed on the Vehicle Information Display.

  • The automatic brake hold function is not designed to hold the vehicle on a steep hill or slippery road. Never use the automatic brake hold when the vehicle is stopped on a steep hill or slippery road. Failure to do so may cause the vehicle to move.

  • The automatic brake hold warning may appear in the Vehicle Information Display to request that the driver retake control by depressing the brake pedal.

  • When the automatic brake hold function is activated, but fails to maintain the vehicle at a standstill, depress the brake pedal to stop the vehicle. If the vehicle unexpectedly moves due to the outside conditions, the chime may sound and the automatic brake hold warning may appear in the Vehicle Information Display. In this instance re-apply brake pressure to ensure the vehicle is held.

  • Be sure to deactivate the automatic brake hold function when using a car wash or towing your vehicle.

  • Make sure to place the shift lever in the P (Park) position and apply the parking brake (Automatic (DCT) Transmission models) or apply the parking brake (Manual Transmission model) when parking your vehicle or loading luggage. Failure to do so could cause the vehicle to move or roll away unexpectedly and result in serious personal injury or property damage.

    • A warning message appears in the Vehicle Information Display.

    • The indicator light of the automatic brake hold switch does not illuminate when the switch is pushed.

  • The automatic brake hold function will not be activated if the Slip indicator light, electronic parking brake warning light or the master warning light illuminate, and the chassis control system fault message appears in the Vehicle Information Display.

  • To maintain the braking force to keep the vehicle to a standstill, a noise may be heard. This is not a malfunction.
