When the instrument panel displays a
message asking you to confirm the lane
change, pull the Autopilot stalk toward you or
engage the appropriate turn signal. If you do
not confirm the lane change within three
seconds, a chime sounds to remind you that
Navigate on Autopilot requires your
confirmation to change lanes.
If Require Lane Change Confirmation is turned
off, Navigate on Autopilot engages the
appropriate turn signal, checks for vehicles
and objects, and when appropriate,
maneuvers Model S into the adjacent lane.
If Require Lane Change Confirmation is turned
on, you must pull the Autopilot stalk toward
you or engage the appropriate turn signal to confirm that you want Navigate on Autopilot
to make the lane change. If you do not confirm
the lane change within three seconds, a chime
sounds to remind you that Navigate on Autopilot requires your confirmation to
change lanes.
Note: If you ignore a route-based lane change
suggestion (for example, you are driving in the
left lane while approaching an off-ramp on the
right side of the highway), Navigate on
Autopilot will be unable to maneuver onto the off-ramp and as a result, the navigation
system will re-route you to your destination.Warning: Navigate on Autopilot may not
always attempt to exit at an off-ramp or
change lanes, even when an exit or lane
change is determined by the navigation
route. Always remain alert and be prepared to manually steer onto an off-
ramp, or make a lane change to prepare
for, or to exit at, an off-ramp or
interchange.
Be Ready to Assist
When attempting to change lanes or
maneuver Model S, or when approaching
construction zones, Navigate on Autopilot
may be unable to determine the appropriate
driving lane (for example, complex clover leafs
and multi-lane off-ramps) and the instrument
panel displays an alert indicating that
Navigate on Autopilot is trying to maneuver
and may require assistance. When you see the
message, be prepared to take immediate
action to ensure that it is safe and appropriate
to complete the lane change or maneuver.
Limitations
Autosteer and its associated functions are
particularly unlikely to operate as intended
when:

Lane Assist
The Autopilot cameras and ultrasonic sensors
monitor the markers on the lane you are
driving in as well as the areas surrounding Model S for the presence of vehicles or other
objects.
When an object is detected in your blind spot
or close to the side of Model S (such as a
vehicle, guard rail, etc.), colored lines radiate
from the image of your vehicle on the
instrument panel. The location of the lines
correspond to the location of the detected object. The color of the lines (white, yellow,
orange, or red) represent the object
