Nissan Juke 2022-present Owners Manual
Ultrasonic Ultrasonic Parking Sensors (where fitted)
Ultrasonic sensors (1) (where fitted) in the vehicle's front and rear bumpers (or rear bumper only), measure the distances between the vehicle and an obstacle when reversing. When reverse gear is engaged, a top view of the vehicle is shown in the vehicle information display. On the display the distances (1 meter and less) to objects are shown. If the object(s) get(s) closer to the vehicle, colours change from green over yellow to red. If the text [STOP] is shown, stop the vehicle before actually touching the object.
If there is any doubt the surroundings in the path of the parking area and/or the parking area itself are not free from obstacles immediately stop the vehicle and check.
The parking sensor system is a convenience but it is not a substitute for proper parking. The driver is always responsible for safety during parking and other manoeuvres. Always look around and check that it is safe to do so before parking.
Read and understand the limitations of the parking sensor system as contained in this section. The colours of the corner sensor indicator and the distance guide lines in the front (where fitted)/rear view indicate different distances to the object. Inclement weather or ultrasonic sources such as an automatic car wash, a truck's compressed-air brakes, horn sound, or a pneumatic drill may affect the function of the system; this may include reduced performance or a false activation.
Some types of kerb may also be detected.
This function is designed as an aid to the driver in detecting large stationary objects to help avoid damaging the vehicle. The system is not designed to prevent contact with small or moving objects. Always move slowly.
The system will not detect small objects below the bumper, and may not detect objects close to the bumper or on the ground.
The system is deactivated at speeds above 10 km/h (6 MPH). It is reactivated at lower speeds.
This system is intended as an aid to parking, to be used in conjunction with your rear view mirrors.
The system may not detect the following objects.
Fluffy objects such as snow, cloth, cotton, glass-wool, etc.
Thin objects such as rope, wire and chain, etc.
Wedge-shaped objects.
If your vehicle sustains damage to the bumper fascia, leaving it misaligned or bent, the sensing zone may be altered causing inaccurate measurement of obstacles or false alarms.
Excessive noise (such as audio system volume or an open vehicle window) will interfere with the tone and it may not be heard.
In some conditions (i.e. after car wash, or rain) water can accumulate around the sonar sensors reducing performance or cause false activation of the system. This water will drain away automatically while driving, bringing system performance back to normal.
Keep the surface of the sonar sensors (located on the front and rear bumper fascia) free from accumulations of snow, ice and dirt. Do not scratch the surface of the sonar sensors when cleaning. If the sensors are covered, the accuracy of the sonar function will be diminished.
