Camera Location
Model X is equipped with a rear view camera
located above the rear license plate.
Whenever you shift into Reverse, the
touchscreen displays the view from the
camera. Lines show your driving path based
on the position of the steering yoke. These
lines adjust as you move the steering yoke.
Model X also displays images from the side
cameras. Simply swipe up or down to hide or
show the side camera views.
NOTE:
Visual feedback from the parking
sensors also appear on the instrument panel
To display the view from the
rear view cameras at any
time, open the app launcher
and touch the Camera app.
WARNING:
Never depend on the
cameras to inform you if the area
behind you is free of objects and/or
people. The cameras may not detect
objects or barriers that can potentially
cause damage or injury. In addition,
several external factors can reduce the
performance of the cameras, including
a dirty or obstructed lens. Therefore,
depending on the cameras to
determine if Model X is approaching
an obstruction can result in damage to
the vehicle and/or objects and can
potentially cause serious injury.
Always inspect the area with your own
eyes. When reversing, perform
shoulder checks and use all mirrors.
Use the cameras for guidance
purposes only. It is not intended to
replace your own direct visual checks
and is not a substitute for careful
driving.
Cleaning a Camera
To ensure a clear picture, the camera lens
must be clean and free of obstructions.
Remove any build-up of dirt or debris by
spraying water onto the camera lens with a
spray bottle or pressure washer.
CAUTION:
Do not attempt to remove
dirt or debris by wiping an exposed
lens with your hands or a cloth. This
debris can damage the surface of the
lens when rubbed against it during
wiping.
CAUTION:
Do not use chemical-based
or abrasive cleaners. Doing so can
damage the surface of the lens.
