When Autosteer cancels, it sounds a chime 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Autosteer is no longer active, or disappears to indicate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 pressing the
brake pedal or briefly pushing the Autopilot stalk away
from you or.

Auto Lane Change
NOTE:
Depending on market region, vehicle
configuration, options purchased, and software version,
your vehicle may not be equipped with Auto Lane
Change, or the feature may not operate exactly as
described.
When Autosteer is active, engage a turn signal to move
Model X into an adjacent lane (moving the steering
wheel would cancel Autosteer).
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 instrument panel for warnings.
Always be prepared to take immediate action.
WARNING:
Do not use Auto Lane Change 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 Auto Lane Change:
1. Perform visual checks to make sure it is safe and
appropriate to move into the target lane.
2. Engage the appropriate turn signal, keeping your
hands on the steering wheel.
3. If needed, cancel the turn signal once you are in the
target lane.
NOTE:
The minimum speed at which Auto Lane Change
operates may vary depending on region, adjacent lane
speeds, and other factors. Always be ready to manually
steer and change lanes as necessary.
Auto Lane Change assists in moving Model X into the
adjacent lane in the direction indicated by the turn
signal, provided the following conditions are met:
• The turn signal is engaged.
• Auto Lane Change detected your hands on the
steering wheel.
• Model X does not detect a vehicle in its blind spot, or
a vehicle or obstacle up to the center of the target
lane.
• Lane markings indicate that a lane change is
permitted.
• Midway through the lane change, Model X must
detect the target lane's outside lane marking. If this
lane marking is not detected, the lane change is
aborted and Model X returns to its original driving
lane.
• The view of the camera(s) is not obstructed.
When an automatic lane change is in progress, Overtake
Acceleration is activated, allowing Model X to accelerate
closer to a vehicle in front (see
).
NOTE:
Auto Lane Change assists in moving Model X one
lane at a time. Moving into an additional lane requires
you to engage the turn signal a second time after the
first lane change is complete.
When using Auto Lane Change, it is important to
monitor its performance by watching the driving path in
front of you and the surrounding area. Stay prepared to
take over steering at any time. As you are crossing over
into the adjacent lane, the instrument panel displays the
location in the lane that Model X is moving into.
In situations where Auto Lane Change is unable to
operate at optimal performance, or cannot operate due
to inadequate data, the instrument panel displays a
series of warnings. Therefore, when using Auto Lane
Change, always pay attention to the instrument panel
and be prepared to manually steer Model X.
