Rear View Camera
Camera Location
Cleaning the Camera
To ensure a clear picture, keep the camera
lens clean, and free of obstructions. Remove
any buildup of dirt by occasionally wiping the
camera lens with a soft damp cloth.
Model S is equipped with a rear view camera
located above the rear license plate.
Caution: Do not use chemical-based or
abrasive cleaners. Doing so can damage
the surface of the camera lens.
Whenever you shift into Reverse, the
touchscreen displays the view from the
camera.
Note: If Model S is equipped with the optional
Park Assist feature, visual feedback from the
parking sensors displays below the camera
image. See Park Assist on page 54.
Warning: Never depend on the rear view
camera to inform you if the area behind
you is free of objects and/or people when
reversing. The camera may not detect
objects or barriers that can potentially
cause damage or injury. In addition,
several external factors can reduce the
performance of the camera, including a
dirty or obstructed lens. Therefore,
depending on the rear view camera to
determine if Model S 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 camera for
guidance purposes only. It is not intended
to replace your own direct visual checks
and is not a substitute for careful driving.
