WARNING: Obstacle-Aware Acceleration may not
limit torque in all situations. Several factors,
including environmental conditions, distance from
an obstacle, and a driver's actions, can limit, delay,
or inhibit Obstacle-Aware Acceleration.
WARNING: Obstacle-Aware Acceleration may not
limit torque when performing a sharp turn, such as
into a parking space.
WARNING: Do not rely on Obstacle-Aware
Acceleration to control acceleration or to avoid, or
limit, the severity of a collision, and do not attempt
to test Obstacle-Aware Acceleration. Doing so can
result in serious property damage, injury, or death.
WARNING: Several factors can aect the
performance of Obstacle-Aware Acceleration,
causing an inappropriate or untimely reduction in
motor torque and/or undesired braking. It is the
driver's responsibility to drive safely and remain in
control of Model S at all times.
Limitations and Inaccuracies
Collision Avoidance features cannot always detect all
objects, vehicles, bikes, or pedestrians, and you may
experience unnecessary, inaccurate, invalid, or missed
warnings for many reasons, particularly if:
The road has sharp curves.
Visibility is poor (due to heavy rain, snow, fog, etc.).
Bright light (such as from oncoming headlights or
direct sunlight) is interfering with the view of the
camera(s).
The radar sensor is obstructed (dirty, covered, etc.).
The windshield is obstructing the view of the
camera(s) (fogged over, dirty, covered by a sticker,
etc.).
WARNING:
The limitations previously described do
not represent an exhaustive list of situations that
may interfere with proper operation of Collision
Avoidance Assist features. These features may fail
to provide their intended function for many other
reasons. It is the driver’s responsibility to avoid
collisions by staying alert, paying attention, and
taking corrective action as early as possible.
CAUTION:
If a fault occurs with a Collision
Avoidance Assist feature, Model S displays an alert.
