2020 TESLA MODEL 3 Owner's Manuals

Release the accelerator pedal to allow Traffic-
Aware Cruise Control to maintain your cruising
speed.
When the cruising speed is
set, the speedometer icon on
the touchscreen turns blue
and displays the set cruising
speed.
Note: Moving the gear level fully down twice in
quick succession engages Autosteer
(assuming it has been enabled as described in Autosteer on page 93) and the set speed
changes to either your current driving speed,
or the current set speed (displayed in the
icon), whichever is greater.
Note: The minimum speed you can set is
18 mph (30 km/h) and the maximum is 90
mph (150 km/h). It is the driver

that either do not exist or are not in the
lane of travel, causing Model 3 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 misjudgethe distance from a vehicle ahead. Driving
downhill can increase driving speed, causing Model 3 to exceed your set speed
(and potentially the road

Cruising Near or On Freeway Exits
When cruising near an exit on a controlled
access road (such as a highway or freeway)
and engaging the turn signal toward the exit,
Traffic-Aware Cruise Control assumes you are
exiting and begins to slow down the vehicle. If
you do not drive onto the exit, Traffic-Aware
Cruise Control resumes cruising at the set
speed. In a region with right hand traffic, this
occurs only when you engage the right turn signal when driving in the right-most lane
within 164 feet (50 meters) of an exit. Likewise
in regions with left hand traffic; when
engaging the left turn signal when driving in
the left-most lane within 164 feet (50 meters)
of an exit.
Note: The onboard Global Positioning System
(GPS) determines if you are driving in a region
with right or left hand traffic. In situations
where GPS data is unavailable (for example, if
there is inadequate signal), engaging the turn
signal near an exit does not cause Traffic-
Aware Cruise Control to slow down Model 3.
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: Never depend on Traffic-Aware
Cruise Control to adequately slow down
Model 3 to avoid a collision. Always watch the road in front of you and stay prepared
to take immediate corrective action.
Overtake Acceleration

Cruise Control active, brie

following situations:

Autosteer
Note: Autosteer is a BETA feature.
Autosteer builds upon Traffic-Aware Cruise
Control (see Traffic-Aware Cruise Control on
page 87), intelligently keeping Model 3 in its
driving lane when cruising at a set speed.
Autosteer also allows you to use the turn
signals to move Model 3 into an adjacent lane (see Auto Lane Change on page 95). Using

The touchscreen displays a message
indicating that Autosteer is temporarily unavailable if you attempted to engage
Autosteer when driving at a speed that is not
within the speed required for Autosteer to operate. Autosteer may also be unavailable if
it is not receiving adequate data from the
camera(s) or sensors.
If Autosteer is unable to detect lane markings,
the driving lane is determined based on the
vehicle you are following.
In most cases, Autosteer attempts to center Model 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

When you see this message, TAKE OVER
