2018 TESLA MODEL 3 auto

Note: Autosteer is a BETA feature.
If you have purchased the optional Enhanced Autopilot or Full Self-Driving Capabilitypackages, you can use Autosteer to manage
steering and speed under certain
circumstances. Autosteer builds upon
Traffic-
Aware Cruise Control (see Traffic-AwareCruise Control on page 61), intelligently
keeping Model 3 in its driving lane when
cruising at a set speed. Using the vehicle

In most cases, Autosteer attempts to centerModel 3 in the driving lane. However, if the
sensors detect the presence of an obstacle (such as a vehicle or guard rail), Autosteer
may steer Model 3 in a driving path that is
offset from the center of the lane.
Warning: Autosteer is not designed to,
and will not, steer Model 3 around objects
partially or completely in the driving lane.
Always watch the road in front of you and stay prepared to take appropriate action.It is the driver

Warning: Auto Lane Change is designed
to be used only when driving on
restricted-access highways (i.e. with on-
ramps and
off-ramps).
If you have purchased the optional Enhanced Autopilot or Full Self-Driving Capabilitypackages, you can use Auto Lane Change to
move Model 3 into an adjacent lane without
moving the steering wheel (which would
cancel Autosteer). When both
Traffic-AwareCruise Control and Autosteer are active, Auto
Lane Change intelligently steers Model 3 into an adjacent driving lane. Using the forwardlooking camera(s), the radar sensor, and
ultrasonic sensors, Model 3 detects lane markings and the presence of other vehicles.
Auto Lane Change is designed for use on
restricted-access highways with visible lane markings and under relatively predictable
circumstances in which minimal steering and
driver intervention is needed.
Warning: It is the driver

Note: Auto Lane Change moves Model 3 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.
Warning: If Auto Lane Change aborts
during a lane change (for example, Auto
Lane Change cannot detect the outside
of the target lane midway through the
lane change), Model 3 returns to its
original driving lane.
When Auto Lane Change is active, 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 touchscreen
displays the lane marking as a dashed blue line. Once in your new lane, lane markings are
displayed as solid blue lines again.
In situations where Auto Lane Change is
unable to operate at optimal performance, or
cannot operate due to inadequate data, the
touchscreen displays a series of warnings.
Therefore, when using Auto Lane Change,
always pay attention to the touchscreen and
be prepared to manually steer Model 3.
Warning: When Auto Lane Change is
actively steering Model 3, the steering
wheel moves accordingly. Any
significantrestriction of or force on the steering
wheel

If you have purchased the optional EnhancedAutopilot or Full Self-Driving Capabilitypackage, Autopark uses data from theultrasonic sensors and GPS to:

In situations where Autopark cannot operatedue to inadequate sensor data, the
touchscreen displays a message indicating that you must manually park Model 3.
Note: If you press the brake when Autopark is
actively parking Model 3, the parking process
pauses until you touch Resume on the
touchscreen.
Note: Autopark detects potential
perpendicular parking spaces that are at least
9.5 feet (2.9 meters) wide with a vehicle
parked on each side. Autopark detects parallel parking spaces that are at least 20 feet (6
meters), but less than 30 feet (9 meters) long.
Autopark does not operate on angled parkingspaces.Warning: Never depend on Autopark tofind a parking space that is legal, suitable,
and safe. Autopark may not always detect
objects in the parking space. Always
perform visual checks to
confirm that a
parking space is appropriate and safe.
Warning: When Autopark is actively
steering Model 3, the steering wheel moves in accordance with Autopark

Warning: Forward Collision Warning may
provide a warning in situations where the
likelihood of collision may not exist. Stay
alert and always pay attention to the area
in front of Model 3 so you can anticipate whether any action is required.Warning: Forward Collision Warning
operates only when driving between
approximately 7 mph (10 km/h) and 90
mph (150 km/h).Warning: Forward Collision Warning does
not provide a warning when the driver is
already applying the brake.
Automatic Emergency Braking
The forward looking camera(s) and the radar
sensor are designed to determine the distance
from an object (vehicle, motorcycle, bicycle, or
pedestrian) traveling in front of Model 3.
When a frontal collision is considered
unavoidable, Automatic Emergency Braking is
designed to apply the brakes to reduce the
severity of the impact.
When Automatic Emergency Braking applies
the brakes, the touchscreen displays a visual
warning and sounds a chime. You may also
notice abrupt downward movement of the
brake pedal. The brake lights turn on to alert
other road users that you are slowing down.
If driving 29 mph (46 km/h) or faster, the
brakes are released after Automatic
Emergency Braking has reduced your driving
speed by 25 mph (40 km/h). For example, if
Automatic Emergency Braking applies braking
when driving 56 mph (90 km/h), it releases
the brakes when your speed has been reduced to 31 mph (50 km/h).
Automatic Emergency Braking operates only
when driving between approximately 7 mph (10 km/h) and 90 mph (150 km/h).
Automatic Emergency Braking does not apply the brakes, or stops applying the brakes,when:

corrective action, a collision is considered
imminent and Automatic Emergency Braking
applies braking to reduce driving speed. If
enabled, Automatic Emergency Braking
applies braking when a collision is considered
inevitable, even if Forward Collision Warning is
turned
off.
Limitations and Inaccuracies
Collision Avoidance features cannot always
detect all objects, vehicles, bikes, or
pedestrians, and you may experience
unnecessary, inaccurate, invalid, or missed
warnings for many reasons, particularly if:
