weather conditions. Use appropriate
caution when driving.
Warning: Forward Collision Warning is
designed only to provide visual and
audible alerts. It does not attempt to
apply the brakes or decelerate Model X.
When seeing and/or hearing a warning, it
is the driver's responsibility to take
corrective action immediately.
Warning: Forward Collision Warning may
provide a warning in situations where the
likelihood of collision may not exist. Stay
alert and always pay attention to the area
in front of Model X so you can anticipate
whether any action is required.
Warning: Forward Collision Warning
operates only when driving between
approximately 10 km/h and 150 km/h.
Warning: Forward Collision Warning does
not provide a warning when the driver is
already applying the brake.
Automatic Emergency Braking
The forward looking camera(s) and the radar
sensor are designed to determine the distance
from an object (vehicle, motorcycle, bicycle, or
pedestrian) traveling in front of Model X.
When a frontal collision is considered
unavoidable, Automatic Emergency Braking is
designed to apply the brakes to reduce the
severity of the impact.
When Automatic Emergency Braking applies
the brakes, the instrument panel displays a
visual warning and sounds a chime. You may
also notice abrupt downward movement of
the brake pedal. The brake lights turn on to
alert other road users that you are slowing
down.
If driving (46 km/h) or faster, the brakes are
released after Automatic Emergency Braking
has reduced your driving speed by (40 km/h).
For example, if Automatic Emergency Braking
applies braking when driving 90 km/h, it
releases the brakes when your speed has been
reduced to 50 km/h.
Automatic Emergency Braking operates only
when driving between approximately 10 km/h
and 150 km/h.
Automatic Emergency Braking does not apply
the brakes, or stops applying the brakes,
when:
You turn the steering wheel sharply.
You press and release the brake pedal
while Automatic Emergency Braking is
applying the brakes.
You accelerate hard (the pressure on the
accelerator pedal increases from below
90% to above 90%) while Automatic
Emergency Braking is applying the brakes.
The vehicle, motorcycle, bicycle, or
pedestrian is no longer detected ahead.
Automatic Emergency Braking is always
enabled when you start Model X. To disable it
(in addition to disabling Pedal Misapplication
Mitigation) for your current drive, touch
Controls > Settings > Driver Assistance >
Automatic Emergency Braking > Disable.
Warning: Disabling Automatic Emergency
Braking also disables Pedal Misapplication
Mitigation.
Warning: It is strongly recommended that
you do not disable Automatic Emergency
Braking. If you disable it, Model X does
not automatically apply the brakes in
situations where a collision is considered
likely.
Warning: Automatic Emergency Braking
is designed to reduce the severity of an
impact. It is not designed to avoid a
collision.
Warning: Several factors can aect the
performance of Automatic Emergency
Braking, causing either no braking or
inappropriate or untimely braking. It is the
driver’s responsibility to drive safely and
remain in control of the vehicle at all
times. Never depend on Automatic
Emergency Braking to avoid or reduce
the impact of a collision.
Warning: Automatic Emergency Braking
is designed to reduce the impact of
frontal collisions only and does not
function when Model X is in Reverse.
Warning: Automatic Emergency Braking
is not a substitute for maintaining a safe
traveling distance between you and the
vehicle in front of you.
Warning: The brake pedal moves
downward abruptly during automatic
braking events. Always ensure that the
brake pedal can move freely. Do not place
