Collision Avoidance Assist Collision Avoidance Assist The following collision avoidance features are Forward Collision Warning designed to increase the safety of you and your passengers: The forward looking camera(s) and the radar • Forward Collision Warning - provides sensor monitor the area in front of Model X for visual and audible warnings in situations the presence of an object such as a vehicle, when Model X detects that there is a high motorcycle, bicycle, or pedestrian. If a collision risk of a frontal collision (see Forward is considered likely unless you take immediate Collision Warning on page 124). corrective action, Forward Collision Warning is designed to sound a chime and highlight the • Automatic Emergency Braking - vehicle in front of you in red on the instrument automatically applies braking to reduce panel. If this happens, TAKE IMMEDIATE the impact of a frontal collision (see CORRECTIVE ACTION! Automatic Emergency Braking on page 125). • Obstacle-Aware Acceleration - reduces acceleration if Model X detects an object in its immediate driving path (see Obstacle-Aware Acceleration on page 126). Warning: Forward Collision Warning is for guidance purposes only and is not a substitute for attentive driving and sound judgment. Keep your eyes on the road when driving and never depend on Forward Collision Warning to warn you of a potential collision. Several factors can reduce or impair performance, causing either unnecessary, invalid, inaccurate, or Warnings cancel automatically when the risk missed warnings. Depending on Forward of a collision has been reduced (for example, Collision Warning to warn you of a you have decelerated or stopped Model X, or potential collision can result in serious the object in front of your vehicle has moved injury or death. out of your driving path). Warning: Automatic Emergency Braking If immediate action is not taken when Model X is not designed to prevent all collisions. In issues a Forward Collision Warning, Automatic certain situations, it can minimize the Emergency Braking (if enabled) may impact of a frontal collision by attempting automatically apply the brakes if a collision is to reduce your driving speed. Depending considered imminent (see Automatic on Automatic Emergency Braking to Emergency Braking on page 125). avoid a collision can result in serious injury or death. By default, Forward Collision Warning is Warning: Obstacle-Aware Acceleration is turned on. To turn it off or adjust its sensitivity, not designed to prevent a collision. In touch Controls > Autopilot > Forward Collision certain situations, it can minimize the Warning. Instead of the default warning level impact of a collision. Depending on of Medium, you can turn the warning Off, or Obstacle-Aware Acceleration to avoid a you can choose to be warned Late or Early. collision can result in serious injury or Note: Your chosen setting for Forward death. Collision Warning is retained until you manually change it. It is also saved in your driver profile. Warning: The camera(s) and sensors associated with Forward Collision Warning are designed to monitor an approximate area of up to 525 feet (160 meters) in your driving path. The area being monitored by Forward Collision Warning can be adversely affected by road and weather conditions. Use appropriate caution when driving. 124 Model X Owner's Manual
