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 wheel.
These lines adjust as you move the steering wheel.
Model X also displays images from the side cameras.
Simply swipe up or down to hide or show the side
camera views.
NOTE: You may need to expand the camera window to
see the images from the side cameras.
NOTE: Visual feedback from the parking sensors also
appear on the instrument panel (see
73).
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.
