Warning: If Auto Lane Change cannotdetect the outside of the target lane
midway through the lane change, both
Auto Lane Change and Autosteer will cancel. The instrument panel displays a
message instructing you to take over the
steering wheel immediately.
When Auto Lane Change is active, it is
important to monitor its performance by
watching the driving path in front of you and
the surrounding area. Stay prepared to take
over steering at any time. On the instrument
panel, the lane you are crossing over displays as a dashed blue line and once in your new
lane, the lane markings display as solid blue
lines.
In situations where Auto Lane Change is
unable to operate at optimal performance, or
cannot operate due to inadequate data, the
instrument panel displays a series of warnings.
Therefore, when using Auto Lane Change,
always pay attention to the instrument panel
and be prepared to manually steer Model S.
Warning: When Auto Lane Change is
actively steering Model S, the steering
wheel moves accordingly. Any

1. With Model S in Park, stand within 10 feet (3 meters) and press and hold the top center buttonon the key (Lock/Unlock All button) until the hazard lights blink continuously.
Note: The hazard lights
flash once as Model S locks, then within five seconds, Model S powers
on and the hazard lights flash continuously. Do not proceed to the next step until the hazard
lights are flashing. If, after five seconds, the hazard lights are not flashing, release the button
on the key, move closer to Model S, and try again. If Summon receives no further input within ten seconds, Summon cancels.
2. Press the Front Trunk (Frunk) button on the key to move Model S forward into the parking space, or press the Rear Trunk button to reverse Model S into the parking space.
Initiate Automatic Parking Before Exiting the Vehicle (U.S. and Mexico Only)
If Require Continuous Press is set to NO, you can initiate the parking maneuver from inside
Model S before exiting:
1. While sitting in Model S with the vehicle powered on, double press the Park gear. The instrument panel displays a message indicating that Summon is engaged, and the
touchscreen displays a popup window.
2. On the touchscreen, choose the direction of travel.
3. Exit Model S and close the door.
Note: All doors and trunks must be closed.
Note: To cancel the parking maneuver before exiting the vehicle, touch Cancel on the popup window.
Summon now drives Model S into the parking space according to the direction you
specified on
the touchscreen.
Stopping or Canceling Summon
You can stop Model S at any time while Summon is active by pressing any button on the key or using the mobile app. Summon also cancels when:

alert and always pay attention to the area
in front of Model S so you can anticipate whether any action is required.Warning: Forward Collision Warning does
not operate when Model S is traveling less than 4 mph (7 km/h).Warning: Forward Collision Warning does
not provide a warning when the driver is already applying the brake.
Automatic Emergency Braking
The forward looking camera and the radar
sensor are designed to determine the distance
from any object (vehicle, motorcycle, bicycle,
or pedestrian) traveling in front of Model S.
When a frontal collision is considered
unavoidable, Automatic Emergency Braking is designed to apply the brakes to reduce the
severity of the impact, even if you are already
applying the brakes.
When Automatic Emergency Braking applies
the brakes, the instrument panel displays a visual warning and you

How Speed Assist Works
If Model S is equipped with Autopilot
components (see About Driver Assistance on
page 65), the forward looking camera detects
speed limit signs. The signs are then analyzed
and compared against GPS data to determine
the speed limit at your current driving
location. For routes where no signs are
present, speed limits are determined using
GPS data (if available). Instead of determining
the speed limit based on signs and GPS data,
you can also manually enter an arbitrary speed limit.
When Speed Assist is turned on (described
below), the instrument panel displays a speed
limit sign. Warnings (described below) take
effect when you exceed this limit.
In situations where Speed Assist is unable to
detect a speed (for example, speed limit signs
and GPS data are not available at the current
location), or if Speed Assist is uncertain that
an acquired speed limit is accurate (for
example, although a speed limit sign was
initially detected, some time has passed
before a subsequent sign has been detected), the instrument panel may not display a speed
limit sign and warnings do not take
effect.
If you set the speed limit warning to Display
(see Controlling Speed Assist on page 88),
the speed limit sign on the instrumental panel
increases in size whenever you exceed the
speed limit.
If you set the speed limit warning to Chime (see Controlling Speed Assist on page 88)
and exceed the speed limit, you also hear a warning chime.
Note: Speed limit warnings go away after 10 seconds, or when Model S slows down below
the
specified limit.
Warning: Do not rely on Speed Assist to
determine the appropriate speed limit. Always drive at a safe speed based on
traffic and road conditions.
Controlling Speed Assist
To turn Speed Assist on or
off, and control
how it works, touch Controls > Settings >
Driver Assistance > Speed Limit Warning, then
choose one of these options:

The Big PictureThe main components of the touchscreen are shown here. To manually control the brightness and
contrast, touch Controls > Displays. When set to Auto, the touchscreen changes between the Day
(light background) and Night (dark background) setting depending on ambient lighting
conditions.
Note: The following illustration is provided for demonstration purposes only. Depending on vehicle
options, software version and market region, your touchscreen may appear slightly
different.

Overview of Climate Controls
The climate controls are always available at the bottom of the touchscreen. By default, climate control is set to Auto, which maintains optimum comfort in all but the most severe weather conditions. When you adjust the temperature, the system automatically adjusts the heating, air
conditioning, air distribution, air circulation, and fan speed to maintain your selected temperature. To override these settings, touch Auto (see Customizing Climate Control on page 103).
The fan, heating, and air conditioning systems are powered by the Battery. Therefore, prolonged
use decreases driving range.
Note: The following illustration is provided for demonstration purposes only. Depending on vehicle
options, software version, market region, and settings, the information displayed may be slightly
different.
1. The front seats are equipped with heating pads that operate at three levels from 3 (highest) to 1 (lowest).
When operating, the indicator turns red and displays the setting number.
Note: If Model S is equipped with the optional cold weather package, you can also control seat heaters in the rear seats, heated wipers, and heated steering wheel by touchingControls > Cold Weather (see Controls on page 95). When equipped with the optional
executive rear seats, you can control the seat and the backrest separately in each second row
passenger seat.
2. Touch the up or down arrow to set the cabin temperature. To apply a temperature setting to both the driver and passenger side at the same time, touch SYNC TEMP on the temperaturepopup that appears when you touch an arrow.
3. Automatic/Manual climate control (see Customizing Climate Control on page 103).
4. The windshield defroster distributes air
flow to the windshield. Touch once to turn on, touch a
second time to operate the heating and fan at their maximum level, and touch a third time to
turn
off and restore the air distribution, heating, and fan to their previous settings.
5. Turn climate control system on/off.6. The rear window defroster warms up the rear window for 15 minutes, then automatically shutsoff. Exterior side mirrors are also heated.
Note: Depending on date of manufacture and options selected at time of purchase, some vehicles are not equipped with a heaters in the exterior side mirrors.
Warning: To avoid burns resulting from prolonged use, individuals who have peripheral neuropathy, or whose capacity to feel pain is limited because of diabetes, age, neurologicalinjury, or some other condition, should exercise caution when using the climate control
system and seat heaters.
