sounds a continuous chime, turns on the
warning flashers, and slows the vehicle to a
complete stop.
For the rest of the drive, you must steer
manually. Autosteer is available again on your
next drive (after you stop and shift Model 3
into Park).
Autosteer is Aborting
In situations where Autosteer is unable to
assist in steering Model 3, Autosteer aborts,
sounds a warning chime, and displays the
following message on the touchscreen:
Canceling Autosteer
Autosteer cancels when:
• You apply rotational force to the steering
wheel (even a slight amount).
• You press the brake pedal.
• The maximum speed that Autosteer
supports–150 km/h–is exceeded.
• You move the gear lever upwards.
• A door is opened.
• An Automatic Emergency Braking event
occurs (see
).
When Autosteer cancels, it sounds chimes
and the Autosteer icon either turns gray to
indicate that Autosteer is no longer active, or
disappears to indicate that it is not currently
available.
NOTE:
If Autosteer cancels because you
applied rotational force to the steering wheel,
Traffic-Aware Cruise Control remains active.
Disengage Traffic-Aware Cruise Control as
you normally would, by moving the gear lever
upward or pressing the brake pedal.
NOTE:
If you move the gear lever upward and
hold it up for more than one second, Model 3
shifts into Neutral after canceling Autosteer.
To disable Autosteer so it is no longer
available, touch

Auto Lane Change
When Autosteer is active on a vehicle
equipped with Auto Lane Change, you can
use the turn signals to move Model 3 into an
adjacent lane.
WARNING:
It is the driver's
responsibility to determine whether a
lane change is safe and appropriate.
Therefore, before initiating a lane
change, always check blind spots, lane
markings, and the surrounding
roadway to confirm it is safe and
appropriate to move into the target
lane.
WARNING:
Never depend on Auto
Lane Change to determine an
appropriate driving path. Drive
attentively by watching the road and
traffic ahead of you, checking the
surrounding area, and monitoring the
touchscreen for warnings. Always be
prepared to take immediate action.
WARNING:
Do not use Auto Lane
Change on city streets or on roads
where traffic conditions are constantly
changing and where bicycles and
pedestrians are present.
WARNING:
The performance of Auto
Lane Change depends on the ability of
the camera(s) to recognize lane
markings.
WARNING:
Do not use Auto Lane
Change on winding roads with sharp
curves, on icy or slippery roads, or
when weather conditions (such as
heavy rain, snow, fog, etc.) may be
obstructing the view from the
camera(s) or sensors.
WARNING:
Failure to follow all
warnings and instructions can result in
property damage, serious injury or
death.
Operating Auto Lane Change
Auto Lane Change is available whenever
Autosteer is active. To change lanes using
