Keeping Cameras Free of Obstructions
Ensure all cameras are clean and free of obstructions before
each drive and before using Autopilot features (see Cleaning
a Camera on page 179). Dirty cameras and sensors (if
equipped), as well as environmental conditions such as rain
and faded lane markings, can affect Autopilot performance. If
a camera is obstructed or blinded, Model Y displays a
message on the touchscreen and Autopilot features may not
be available.
Condensation can form inside the camera enclosures,
especially if you park your vehicle outside in cold or wet
conditions. The touchscreen may display an alert stating that
a camera is blocked and that some or all Autopilot features
may be temporarily restricted until the camera vision is clear.
To proactively dry the condensation, precondition the cabin
by setting it to a warm temperature, turning the windshield
defroster on, and directing the front air vents toward the door
pillars (see
Mobile App on page 55).
