associated falcon wing door.
Single-click to stop movement of the
associated falcon wing door.
Subsequently double-clicking reverses
movement of the falcon wing door.
For example if the door was opening,
it closes, and vice versa.
Note: Falcon wing doors are designed
to proactively detect obstacles that
prevent the doors from moving when
an obstacle is detected.
Warning:
Model X falcon wing
doors have several sensors to
detect the presence of an object
in the door's path. In most cases,
when an object is detected, the
door stops moving. However, the
sensors are unable to detect all
areas under all circumstances,
particularly when closing,
Therefore, you must monitor the
movement of falcon wing doors
to ensure the door's path of
movement is free of obstacles,
staying prepared at all times to
proactively intervene to stop the
door from contacting an object
(including a person). Failure to do
so can cause serious damage or
bodily injury.
You do not need to point the key at Model X,
but you must be within operating range
(which varies depending on the strength of
the key’s battery).
If Model X is unable to detect the key, the
touchscreen displays a message indicating
that a key is not inside. Place the key where
Model X can best detect it, which is below the
12V power socket (see Key Not Inside on page
51).
Radio equipment on a similar frequency can
aect the key. If this happens, move the key at
least 30 cm away from other electronic
devices (phone, laptop, etc). If the key does
not work, you may need to change its battery.
If the key’s battery is discharged, you can
open Model X by following the unlocking
procedure (see Unlocking When the Key
Doesn't Work on page 11).
Caution: Remember to bring the key with
you when you drive. Although you can
drive Model X away from its key, you will
be unable to power it back on after it
powers o.
Caution: Protect the key from impact,
high temperatures, and damage from
liquids. Avoid contact with solvents,
waxes and abrasive cleaners.
Replacing the Key Battery
The key’s battery lasts for approximately a
year. When the battery is low, a message
displays on the instrument panel. Follow these
steps to replace it:
