Warning: Never depend on Autopark to
find a parking space that is legal, suitable,
and safe. Autopark may not always detect
objects in the parking space. Always
perform visual checks to confirm that a
parking space is appropriate and safe.
Warning: When Autopark is actively
steering Model S, the steering wheel
moves in accordance with Autopark's
adjustments. Do not interfere with the
movement of the steering wheel. Doing
so cancels Autopark.
Warning: During the parking sequence,
continually check your surroundings. Be
prepared to apply the brakes to avoid
vehicles, pedestrians, or objects.
Warning: When Autopark is active,
monitor the touchscreen and instrument
panel to ensure that you are aware of the
instructions that Autopark is providing.
To Pause Parking
To pause Autopark, press the brake pedal
once. Model S stops and remains stopped until
you touch Resume on the touchscreen.
To Cancel Parking
Autopark cancels the parking sequence when
you manually move the steering wheel,
change gears, or touch Cancel on the
touchscreen. Autopark also cancels parking
when:
The parking sequence exceeds the
maximum of seven moves.
Model S detects that the driver is exiting
the vehicle.
A door is opened.
You press the accelerator pedal.
You press the brake pedal while Autopark
is paused.
An Automatic Emergency Braking event

Limitations
Autopark is particularly unlikely to operate as
intended in these situations:
The road is sloped. Autopark is designed
to operate on
flat roads only.
Visibility is poor (due to heavy rain, snow,
fog, etc.).
The curb is constructed of material other
than stone, or the curb cannot be
detected.
The target parking space is directly
adjacent to a wall or pillar (for example,
the last parking space of a row in an
underground parking structure).
One or more of the ultrasonic sensors is
damaged, dirty, or obstructed (such as by
mud, ice, or snow).
Weather conditions (heavy rain, snow, fog,
or extremely hot or cold temperatures)
are interfering with sensor operation.
The sensors are
aected by other
electrical equipment or devices that
generate ultrasonic waves.
Warning: Many unforeseen circumstances
can impair Autopark's ability to park
Model S. Keep this in mind and remember
that as a result, Autopark may not steer
Model S appropriately. Pay attention
when parking Model S and stay prepared
to immediately take control.
