Note: Trac-Aware Cruise Control is a BETA
feature.
If you have purchased the optional Enhanced
Autopilot or Full Self-Driving Capability
package, the forward looking cameras and the
radar sensor are designed to determine when
there is a vehicle in front of you in the same
lane. If the area in front of Model X is clear,
Trac-Aware Cruise Control maintains a set
driving speed. When a vehicle is detected,
Trac-Aware Cruise Control is designed to
slow down Model X as needed to maintain a
selected time-based distance from the vehicle
in front, up to the set speed.
Trac-Aware
Cruise Control does not eliminate the need to
watch the road in front of you and to manually
apply the brakes when needed.
Trac-Aware Cruise Control is primarily
intended for driving on dry, straight roads,
such as highways and freeways. It should not
be used on city streets.
Warning: Trac-Aware Cruise Control is
designed for your driving comfort and
convenience and is not a collision warning
or avoidance system. It is your
responsibility to stay alert, drive safely,
and be in control of the vehicle at all
times. Never depend on Trac-Aware
Cruise Control to adequately slow down
Model X. Always watch the road in front
of you and be prepared to take corrective
action at all times. Failure to do so can
result in serious injury or death.
Warning: Although Trac-Aware Cruise
Control is capable of detecting
pedestrians and cyclists, never depend on
Trac-Aware Cruise Control to
adequately slow Model X down for them.
Always watch the road in front of you and
be prepared to take corrective action at
all times. Failure to do so can result in
serious injury or death.
Warning: Do not use Trac-Aware Cruise
Control on city streets or on roads where
trac conditions are constantly changing.
Warning: Do not use Trac-Aware Cruise
Control on winding roads with sharp
curves, on icy or slippery road surfaces, or
when weather conditions (such as heavy
rain, snow, fog, etc.) make it inappropriate
to drive at a consistent speed. Trac-
Aware Cruise Control does not adapt
driving speed based on road and driving
conditions.
Operating Trac-Aware Cruise
Control
To use Trac-Aware Cruise Control, you must
be driving at least 30 km/h, unless a vehicle is
detected ahead of you. If a vehicle is detected
ahead of you, you can use Trac-Aware
Cruise Control at any speed, even when
stationary, provided you are at least 150 cm
away from the vehicle.
The minimum set speed is 30 km/h. The
maximum set speed is 150 km/h. It is the
driver's responsibility to cruise at a safe speed
based on road conditions and speed limits.
The instrument panel
displays a gray speedometer
icon on the left side of the
driving speed to indicate
that
Trac-Aware Cruise
Control is available but is not
currently active. The number
shown in gray is determined
by Speed Assist (see
Controlling Speed Assist on
page 112).
When driving at your desired speed, set the
cruising speed by moving the cruise control
lever up or down, then releasing.
To set the cruising speed to the set speed as
determined by Speed Assist (see Controlling
Speed Assist on page 112), pull the cruise
control lever towards you, then release.
