(whichever is greater) when you move the
gear lever fully down once then release.
Note: If Speed Assist is unable to determine a
speed limit, your set speed does not change
when you move the gear lever fully down once
then release.Warning: Do not rely on Speed Assist orTraffic-Aware Cruise Control to determine
an accurate or appropriate cruising
speed. Always cruise at a safe speed
based on road conditions and applicable
speed limits.
Changing the Set Speed
To change the set speed while using
Traffic-
Aware Cruise Control, roll the right scroll
wheel up (to increase) or down (to decrease)
the set speed until your desired set speed is
displayed. Slowly rolling the scroll wheel changes the set speed in 1 mph (1 km/h)
increments and quickly rolling the scroll wheel
changes the set speed to the closest 5 mph (5
km/h) increment.
You can also use the touchscreen to change
the set speed by touching the plus ( +) or
minus ( -) next to the displayed set speed. A
quick tap changes the set speed by 1 mph (1
km/h) and a press and hold changes the set
speed to the closest 5 mph (5 km/h)
increment. To increase/decrease to the next
increment, you must release the plus ( +) or
minus ( -) then press it again.
To cruise at the speed limit that is currently
being determined by Speed Assist (including
any
offsets that you have set), move the gear
lever fully down once then release. See Speed
Assist on page 79.
Note: It may take a few seconds for Model 3 to
reach the new cruising speed, assuming Model
3 does not detect a vehicle ahead driving
slower than your set speed.
Overtake Acceleration
When following a vehicle with
Traffic-AwareCruise Control active, briefly engaging the
turn signal (to indicate a move into the
passing lane) accelerates Model 3 towards the vehicle ahead. By momentarily holding theturn signal lever up or down, you can quickly
accelerate up to your set speed without having to press the accelerator pedal. The turn
signal accelerates only when the following
conditions are met:
