Tesla Model X: Collision Avoidance Assist
The following collision avoidance features are designed
to increase the safety of you and your passengers:
- Forward Collision Warning - provides visual and
audible warnings in situations when Model X detects
that there is a high risk of a frontal collision (see
Forward Collision Warning).
- Automatic Emergency Braking - automatically
applies braking to reduce the impact of a frontal
collision (see Automatic Emergency Braking).
- Obstacle-Aware Acceleration - reduces acceleration
if Model X detects an object in its immediate driving
path (see Obstacle-Aware Acceleration).
CAUTION: Ensure all cameras and sensors are
clean. Dirty cameras and sensors, as well as
environmental conditions such as rain and faded
lane markings, can affect performance.
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 missed warnings. Depending
on Forward Collision Warning to warn you of a
potential collision can result in serious injury or
death.
WARNING: Automatic Emergency Braking is not
designed to prevent all collisions. In certain
situations, it can minimize the impact of a frontal
collision by attempting to reduce your driving
speed. Depending on Automatic Emergency
Braking to avoid a collision can result in serious
injury or death.
WARNING: Obstacle-Aware Acceleration is not
designed to prevent a collision. In certain
situations, it can minimize the impact of a collision.
Depending on Obstacle-Aware Acceleration to
avoid a collision can result in serious injury or
death.
