Stop Light and Stop Sign Warning
NOTE: Depending on market region, vehicle
configuration, options purchased, and software version,
your vehicle may not be equipped with Stop Light and
Stop Sign Warning, or the feature may not operate
exactly as described.
While Autosteer is in use, Model X displays a warning on
the
instrument panel and sounds a chime if it detects
that you are likely to run through a red stop light or stop
sign. If this happens, TAKE IMMEDIATE CORRECTIVE
ACTION!
The visual and audible warnings cancel after a few
seconds, or when you press the brake pedal, whichever
comes first.
Stop Light and Stop Sign Warning provides warnings
only. It makes no attempt to slow down or stop Model X
at red trac lights, stop signs, road markings, etc. If your
vehicle is equipped with Trac Light and Stop Sign
Control, you can enable this feature to automatically
stop Model X at trac lights and stop signs (see Trac
Light and Stop Sign Control on page 109).
NOTE: Touch Controls > Autopilot > Full Self-Driving
Visualization Preview (if equipped) to display more
details about the roadway and its surroundings, such as
road markings, stop lights, objects (such as trash cans
and poles), etc.
CAUTION:
Stop Light and Stop Sign Warning
requires the vehicle's map to know that a
particular stop light or stop sign exists at a
location. In some cases, map data is inaccurate or
outdated and may not include all stop lights or
stop signs. Therefore, Stop Light and Stop Sign
Warning may not detect all stop lights and stop
signs.
WARNING:
The Stop Light and Stop Sign Warning
feature does not apply the brakes or decelerate
Model X and may not detect all stop lights and
stop signs. Stop Light and Stop Sign Warning is
designed for guidance purposes only and is not a
substitute for attentive driving and sound
judgment. Keep your eyes on the road when
driving and never depend on Stop Light and Stop
Sign Warning to warn you of a stop light or stop
sign.
WARNING:
Stop Light and Stop Sign Warning is
designed to warn you only when approaching a
visible red stop sign, solid red or later portion of a
yellow trac light; it may not warn you of
intersections with flashing lights and it does not
warn you of yield signs or temporary stop and
yield signs (such as those used in construction
areas). Additionally, Stop Light and Stop Sign
Warning does not warn you of approaching stop
lights or stop signs when you are pressing the
accelerator pedal or brake pedal (which disables
Autosteer).
Limitations
Autosteer and its associated functions are particularly
unlikely to operate as intended when:
•
Autosteer is unable to accurately determine lane
markings. For example, lane markings are excessively
worn, have visible previous markings, have been
adjusted due to road construction, are changing
quickly (lanes branching
o, crossing over, or
merging), objects or landscape features are casting
strong shadows on the lane markings, or the road
surface contains pavement seams or other high-
contrast lines.
• Visibility is poor (heavy rain, snow, fog, etc.) or
weather conditions are interfering with sensor
operation.
• A camera(s) or sensor(s) is obstructed, covered, or
damaged.
•
Driving on hills.
• Approaching a toll booth.
•
Driving on a road that has sharp curves or is
excessively rough.
•
Bright light (such as direct sunlight) is interfering
with the view of the camera(s).
•
The sensors are aected by other electrical
equipment or devices that generate ultrasonic waves.
•
A vehicle is detected in your blind spot when you
engage the turn signal.
•
Model X is being driven very close to a vehicle in
front of it, which is blocking the view of the
camera(s).
WARNING:
Many unforeseen circumstances can
impair the operation of Autosteer. Always keep this
in mind and remember that as a result, Autosteer
may not steer Model X appropriately. Always drive
attentively and be prepared to take immediate
action.
