WARNING: Although the instrument panel shows surrounding traffic, some vehicles may not be displayed. Never rely on the instrument panel to determine if a vehicle is present (for example, in your blind spot). Always use your mirrors and perform shoulder checks.
9.
Your Model S.
10.
The energy bar (a thin horizontal line at the bottom center of the instrument panel) displays
real-time energy usage. The bar is colored gray (or white if the display is in Dark mode) and moves to the right to represent energy being used during acceleration. The bar is green and
moves to the left to represent energy being gained through regenerative braking.
11.
When Autosteer is active and detects the driving lane, it is highlighted in blue (see Autosteer on page 93). Depending on the current driving scenario, you may see
neighboring lanes.
NOTE: In situations where Autosteer is unable to detect lane markings, the driving lane is
determined based on the vehicle you are following.
NOTE: If Navigate on Autopilot is active, the driving lane displays as a single blue line in
front of Model S (see Navigate on Autopilot on page 98).
Indicator Lights
Indicator lights display along the top of the
instrument panel to show status and alert you
of
specific vehicle conditions.

Instrument Panel
62MODEL 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: 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),
