Autopark
parking spaces that are at least 20 feet (6
meters), but less than 49 feet (15 meters) long.
Autopark does not operate on angled parking
spaces.
To Cancel Parking
Autopark cancels the parking sequence when
you manually move the steering wheel, or
when you change gears. Autopark also
cancels parking when:
Warning: Never depend on Autopark to
find a parking space that is legal, suitable,
and safe. Autopark may not always detect
objects in the parking space. Always
perform visual checks toconfirm that a
parking space is appropriate and safe.
•
The parking sequence exceeds the
maximum of seven moves.
•
•
•
•
The driver's seat belt is unbuckled.
A door is opened.
You press the accelerator pedal.
You press the brake pedal twice in quick
succession.
Warning: When Autopark is actively
steering Model S, the steering wheel
moves in accordance with Autopark's
adjustments. Do not interfere with the
movement of the steering wheel. Doing
so cancels Autopark.
•
An Automatic Emergency Braking event
occurs (see Collision Avoidance Assist on
page 85).
Warning: During the parking sequence,
continually check your surroundings. Be
prepared to apply the brakes to avoid
vehicles, pedestrians, or objects.
To Pause Parking
To pause Autopark, press the brake pedal
once. Model S stops and remains stopped until
you press Resume on the touchscreen.
Warning: When Autopark is active,
monitor the touchscreen and instrument
panel to ensure that you are aware of the
instructions that Autopark is providing.
Limitations
Autopark is particularly unlikely to operate as
intended in the following types of situations:
Calibration
•
•
•
The road is sloped. Autopark is designed
to operate onflat roads only.
During a parking sequence, Autopark must
maneuver Model S with a great deal of
precision. Therefore, before it can be used,
Autopark must complete a calibration process.
Calibration can take anywhere from 30
minutes to several days, depending on driving
behavior. When Autopark is calibrating, a note
displays on the Driver Assistance settings
screen indicating that calibration is in
progress. When calibration is complete, this
note no longer displays and Autopark is
available for use.
Visibility is poor (due to heavy rain, snow,
fog, etc.).
The curb is constructed of material other
than stone, or the curb can not be
detected.
•
•
•
One or more of the ultrasonic sensors is
damaged, dirty, or obstructed (such as by
mud, ice, or snow).
Weather conditions (heavy rain, snow, fog,
or extremely hot or cold temperatures)
are interfering with sensor operation.
The sensors areaffected by other
electrical equipment or devices that
generate ultrasonic waves.
Note: Autopark repeats the calibration process
whenever tires are changed.
Warning: Many unforeseen circumstances
can impair Autopark's ability to park
Model S. Keep this in mind and remember
that as a result, Autopark may not steer
Model S appropriately. Pay attention
when parking Model S and stay prepared
to immediately take control.
Using Summon
Note: Summon is a BETA feature in Release 7.1
and must be used only on a private residential
property while continually monitoring the
vehicle. Summon is not available in Canada.
