Controlling Lights
Touch Controls > Lights to control the lights.
NOTE: You can also access an abbreviated
lights menu while driving by touching the
Auto High Beam button on the steering yoke.
A lights menu displays on the touchscreen,
providing quick access to headlight controls.
In addition to the lights that you can control
from the touchscreen, Model S has
convenience lights that turn on and off
automatically based on what you are doing.
For example, interior lights, marker lights, tail
lights, and puddle lights turn on when you
unlock
Model S, when you open a door, and
when you shift into Park. They turn off
automatically after a minute or two or when
you shift into a driving gear or lock Model S.
1.
Exterior lights (headlights, tail lights, side
marker lights, parking lights, and license plate lights) are set to
AUTO each time
you start Model S. When set to AUTO,
exterior lights automatically turn on when driving in low lighting conditions. If you change to a
different setting, lights
always revert to AUTO on your next drive.
Touch one of these options to change the
exterior light setting:

NOTE: Depending on market region, vehicle configuration, options purchased, and software version, your vehicle may not be equipped with Autosteer, or the feature may not operate exactly as described.
NOTE: Autosteer is a BETA feature.
Autosteer builds upon Traffic-Aware Cruise
Control (see Traffic-Aware Cruise Control on page 87), intelligently keeping Model S in its
driving lane when cruising at a set speed.
Autosteer also allows you to use the turn signals to move Model S into an adjacent lane (see Auto Lane Change on page 95). Autosteer detects lane markings and the
presence of vehicles and objects to steer Model S.
NOTE: To display more details about the
roadway and its surroundings, such as road markings, stop lights, objects (such as trash cans and poles), etc., touch
Controls > Autopilot > Full Self-Driving Visualization Preview (if equipped).
CAUTION: Ensure all cameras and sensors are clean. Dirty cameras and sensors, as well as environmental conditions such as rain and faded lane markings, affect performance.
WARNING: Autosteer is a hands-on feature. You must keep your hands on the steering yoke at all times.
WARNING: Autosteer is intended for use on highways and limited-access roads with a fully attentive driver. When using Autosteer, hold the steering yoke and be mindful of road conditions and surrounding traffic. Do not use Autosteer on city streets, in construction zones, or in areas where bicyclists or pedestrians may be present. Never depend on Autosteer to determine an appropriate driving path. Always be prepared to take immediate action. Failure to follow these instructions could cause damage, serious injury or death.
Operating Autosteer
Before you can operate Autosteer, you must
enable it by touching Controls > Autopilot > Autosteer (Beta).
To indicate that Autosteer is
available (but not actively
steering
Model S), the instrument panel displays a
gray Autosteer icon beside the driving speed.
To initiate Autosteer, press the right scroll wheel.
NOTE: If the setting for Autosteer Activation is set to Single Click (touch Controls > Autopilot > Autosteer Activation), Autosteer
engages when you single-press the right
scroll wheel. If set to
Double Click, you must
double-press the right scroll wheel to engage
Autosteer.
Autosteer briefly displays a message on the instrument panel reminding you to pay
attention to the road and be ready to take over at any time. To indicate that Autosteer is
now actively steering Model S, the instrument panel displays the Autosteer icon in blue.
When Autosteer is able to detect lane markings, it also displays the driving lane in blue.
To initiate Autosteer when no vehicle is
detected ahead of you, you must be driving
at least
18 mph (30 km/h), unless certain
vehicle and environmental conditions are met,
in which case, you may be able to initiate it at
lower speeds. If a vehicle is detected ahead of you, you can initiate Autosteer at any speed,
even when stationary, provided
Model S is at
least 5 feet (150 cm) behind the detected
vehicle.
NOTE: The maximum cruising speed is 90 mph (150 km/h). It is the driver

NOTE: Navigate on Autopilot is a BETA
feature.
NOTE: Depending on market region, vehicle configuration, options purchased, and software version, your vehicle may not be equipped with Navigate on Autopilot, or the feature may not operate exactly as described.
When using Autosteer on a controlled-access
road (such as a highway or freeway),
Navigate on Autopilot guides
Model S to off-ramps and interchanges based on your
navigation route. Along the highway portion
of a navigation route, Navigate on Autopilot also changes lanes to prepare for exits and to
minimize the driving time to your destination.
WARNING: Navigate on Autopilot does not make driving autonomous. You must pay attention to the road, keep your hands on the steering yoke at all times, and remain aware of your navigation route.
WARNING: As is the case with normal driving, be extra careful around blind corners, highway interchanges, and exits because obstacles can appear quickly and at any time.
WARNING: Navigate on Autopilot may not recognize or detect oncoming vehicles, stationary objects, and special-use lanes such as those used exclusively for bikes, carpools, emergency vehicles, etc. Remain alert at all times and be prepared to take immediate action. Failure to do so can cause damage, injury or death.
Enabling and Customizing
Navigate on Autopilot

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
Page 102 of 281

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: 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

NOTE: Lane Departure Avoidance does not
warn you of lane departures, or provide steering interventions, if the associated turn signal is on, which indicates an intentional
lane change.WARNING: Lane Departure Avoidance is intended to help keep you safe, but it does not work in every situation and does not replace the need to remain attentive and in control.
WARNING: Keep your hands on the steering yoke and drive attentively at all times.
WARNING: Steering interventions are minimal and are not designed to move Model S out of its driving lane. Do not rely on steering interventions to avoid side collisions.
Emergency Lane Departure
