TESLA MODEL S 2021 Owner´s Manual

WARNING: If you turn off Require Lane Change Confirmation, Navigate on Autopilot notifies you of upcoming lane changes and off-ramps, but it remains your responsibility to monitor the environment and maintain control of Model S at all times. Lane changes can occur quickly and suddenly. Always keep your hands on the wheel and your eyes on the driving path in front of you.
NOTE: The touchscreen displays route-based
lane changes at the top of the map

WARNING: Navigate on Autopilot may not always attempt to exit at an off-ramp, even when the exit is determined by the navigation route. Always remain alert and be prepared to manually steer onto the off-ramp, or make a required lane change.
You can cancel Navigate on Autopilot at any
time by touching Navigate on Autopilot on
the map

NOTE: Depending on market region, vehicle configuration, options purchased, and software version, your vehicle may not be equipped with Traffic Light and Stop Sign Control, or the feature may not operate exactly as described.
NOTE: Traffic Light and Stop Sign Control is a BETA feature and works best on roads that are frequently driven by Tesla vehicles. Traffic Light and Stop Sign Control attempts to stop at all traffic lights and may also stop at green lights.
Traffic Light and Stop Sign Control is
designed to recognize and respond to traffic lights and stop signs, slowing Model S to a
stop when using Traffic-Aware cruise control
or Autosteer. This feature uses the vehicle

NOTE: If, after you briefly press the
accelerator pedal to confirm that you want to
continue through the intersection, the traffic signal changes before you enter the
intersection (for example, the light changes
from green to yellow or from yellow to red),
Model S may determine that it is not
appropriate to proceed. Therefore, Model S stops and you must press the accelerator to proceed. At all times, it is your responsibility
to ensure the vehicle stops or accelerates
appropriately and safely.
WARNING: Traffic Light and Stop Sign Control DOES NOT turn Model S through an intersection. When in a turning lane, Model S stops at the red stop line. To proceed, briefly press the accelerator pedal

Stop Signs and Road Markings
When driving with Autosteer or Traffic-aware Cruise Control engaged, and Traffic Light and
Stop Sign Control enabled, Model S is designed to respond as follows when approaching
intersections controlled by stop signs, stop lines, or road markings:
Type of IntersectionVehicle Intended Response
No Traffic Control
Arm of T-junction
Model S assumes the right of way and continues straight
without slowing down or stopping.
End of T-junction
If Model S detects a T-junction based on the map data, Model S slows down and comes to a complete stop at the red stop line
displayed on the instrument panel. When you want to proceed,
you must take over steering and acceleration.
WARNING: Model S may not stop at a T-junction that does not have a stop sign or stop line, or if the T-junction is not included in the map data. Drive attentively and be prepared to stop (when necessary and/or appropriate).

Model S slows down and comes to a complete stop at the red
stop line displayed on the instrument panel. When you want to
proceed through the intersection, you must briefly press the
accelerator pedal.
NOTE: If you confirm that you want to proceed through an
intersection controlled by a stop sign by briefly pressing the
accelerator pedal before Model S has stopped, your confirmation is ignored. Model S is not designed to proceed
through a stop sign without stopping.
NOTE: Even when using Autosteer, and even if you have
engaged a turn signal, you must turn the steering yoke yourself
(which cancels Autosteer) to complete a turn at an
intersection.
WARNING: Model S also slows down and stops at a roundabout. You must take over steering (which cancels Autosteer) and briefly press the accelerator pedal to confirm that you want to continue through the roundabout.Traffic Light and Stop Sign Control

WARNING: At crosswalks, Model S may slow down and may stop, depending on whether the crosswalk is controlled by a traffic light and whether the cameras detect pedestrians, bicyclists, etc. in the crosswalk. Pay particular attention at crosswalks and be prepared to take over at any time. Failure to do so can result in injury or death.
