Instrument Panel - Driving
When Model S is driving (or ready to drive), the instrument panel shows your current driving
status and a real-time visualization of the road as detected by the Autopilot components (see
About Autopilot on page 84). The visualization automatically zooms in and out based on the
detected road type.
NOTE: Touch Controls > Autopilot > Full Self-Driving Visualization Preview (if equipped) to
display more details about the roadway and its surroundings, such as road markings, stop lights,
objects (such as trash cans and poles), etc.
1.
The instrument panel displays your location on a map, a wiper menu, Auto Shift out of Park instructions, etc. When a navigation route is active, the upcoming portion of the route
displays.
2.
The speed limit (if available) that is currently being detected by Speed Assist (see Speed Assist on page 126).
3.
Current driving speed.
4.
The currently set cruising speed. When Traffic-Aware Cruise Control is available but you
haven

NOTE: Depending on market region, vehicle configuration, options purchased, and software version, your vehicle may not be equipped with Traffic-Aware Cruise Control, or the feature may not operate exactly as described. If your vehicle is not equipped, refer to the owner

NOTE: If Autosteer Activation is set to
single-click, pressing the right scroll wheel
once also activates Autosteer (which
includes
Traffic-Aware Cruise Control).
2.
You can choose whether Traffic-Aware Cruise Control engages at the currently
detected speed limit or your current
driving speed. Touch
Controls > Autopilot > Set Speed and choose either Speed Limit or Current Speed. If you choose to
engage Traffic-Aware Cruise Control at
the currently detected speed limit, you can specify an
offset. Touch Controls > Autopilot > Set Speed Offset. You can
choose a Fixed offset, in which the
cruising speed adjusts by a specific
number of mph (km/h) on all roads, or a Percentage offset, in which the cruising
speed is adjusted as a percentage of the
road

WARNING: Due to limitations inherent in the onboard GPS (Global Positioning System), you may experience situations in which Traffic-Aware Cruise Control slows down the vehicle, especially near highway exits where a curve is detected and/or you are actively navigating to a destination and not following the route.
WARNING: Traffic-Aware Cruise Control cannot detect all objects and, especially in situations when you are driving over 50 mph (80 km/h), may not brake/decelerate when a vehicle or object is only partially in the driving lane or when a vehicle you are following moves out of your driving path and a stationary or slow-moving vehicle or object is in front of you. Always pay attention to the road ahead and stay prepared to take immediate corrective action. Depending on Traffic-Aware Cruise Control to avoid a collision can result in serious injury or death. In addition, Traffic-Aware Cruise Control may react to vehicles or objects that either do not exist or are not in the lane of travel, causing Model S to slow down unnecessarily or inappropriately.
WARNING: Traffic-Aware Cruise Control may be unable to provide adequate speed control because of limited braking capability and hills. It can also misjudge the distance from a vehicle ahead. Driving downhill can increase driving speed, causing Model S to exceed your set speed (and potentially the road

When enabled while on a highway
interchange or off-ramp, Traffic-Aware Cruise
Control may reduce your set speed in 5 mph (5 km/h) increments

WARNING: Overtake Acceleration increases your driving speed whenever the appropriate turn signal is engaged, and accelerates Model S closer to the vehicle ahead. Although Traffic-Aware Cruise Control continues to maintain distance from the vehicle ahead, it is important to be aware that your selected following distance is reduced when Overtake Acceleration is active, particularly in cases where it may not be your intention to overtake the vehicle you are following.
Canceling and Resuming
To manually cancel Traffic-Aware Cruise
Control, press the right scroll wheel or press
the brake pedal.
NOTE: When Traffic-Aware Cruise Control
cancels, Model S does not coast. Instead,
regenerative braking slows down Model S in
the same way as when you move your foot off the accelerator when driving without Traffic-Aware Cruise Control (see Regenerative Braking on page 67).
WARNING: Traffic-Aware Cruise Control cancels, or may not be available, in the following situations:

WARNING: The list above does not represent an exhaustive list of situations that may interfere with proper operation of Traffic-Aware Cruise Control.

92MODEL S Owner

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: 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
