The Pedestrian Warning System (if equipped) causes Model S to emit sound when driving
below 19 mph (32 km/h) or while driving in
reverse. Electric vehicles operate quietly and this sound helps to alert pedestrians of your
oncoming vehicle. The sound, which activates
whenever
Model S is shifted out of Park, gets
louder as speed increases.
WARNING: If sound cannot be heard, pedestrians may not be aware of your oncoming vehicle, which may increase the likelihood of a collision resulting in serious injury or death. If the Pedestrian Warning System is not operating, immediately contact Tesla.

To ensure that Model S provides you with the
best ownership experience possible in harsh cold weather conditions, follow these best
practices.
Before Driving
When snow and ice accumulate on your
vehicle, moving parts, such as the door
handles, windows, mirrors, and wipers can
freeze in place. For these reasons, and to
achieve maximum range and performance, it
is helpful to warm the cabin and Battery before you leave. There are several ways to do so:

While Driving
Cold weather can increase energy
consumption because more power is required
for driving, cabin and Battery heating. Follow
these suggestions to reduce energy
consumption:

NOTE: You can also prevent the occurrence of
a charge port latch freezing in place by using the
Schedule settings, available on both the
charging and climate control screens, to set a
departure time and precondition
Model S before that time (see Scheduled Charging and Scheduled Departure on page 184).
NOTE: If your charge port latch is frozen in
place, it may not lock the charging cable in
place when inserted, but it can still charge at
a slow AC rate even if the latch is not
engaged.
Storage
If you leave Model S parked for an extended
period of time, plug it into a charger to
prevent normal range loss and to keep the
Battery at an optimal temperature. Your
vehicle is safe to stay plugged in for any length of time.
When not in use, Model S enters a sleep mode
to conserve energy. Reduce the number of times you check your vehicle

How It Works
Your Model S includes the following Autopilot components that actively monitor the
surrounding area:
1.
A camera is mounted above the rear license plate.
2.
Ultrasonic sensors are located in the front and rear bumpers.
3.
A camera is mounted in each door pillar.
4.
Three cameras are mounted to the windshield above the rear view mirror.
5.
A camera is mounted to each front fender.
6.
Radar is mounted behind the front bumper.
Model S is also equipped with high precision electronically-assisted braking and steering
systems.
NOTE: Ensure all cameras and sensors are clean before each drive. See Cleaning Cameras and Sensors on page 86 for more information. Dirty cameras and sensors, as well as environmental
conditions such as rain and faded lane markings, can affect Autopilot performance.
