2022 TESLA MODEL 3 warning

Controlling Audible Feedback
You can use Park Assist with or without audible feedback. To turn chimes on or
off, touch Controls >
Safety & Security > Park Assist Chimes.
Limitations and False Warnings
The parking sensors may not function correctly in these
situations:

The Pedestrian Warning System (if equipped) causes
Model 3 to emit sound when driving below 19 mph (32
km/h) or while driving in reverse. Electric vehicles
operate quietly and this sound helps to alert pedestrians of your oncoming vehicle. The sound, which activates
whenever
Model 3 is shifted out of Park, gets louder as
speed increases.
NOTE: The Pedestrian Warning System is not available in
vehicles manufactured prior to September 1, 2019.
WARNING: If sound cannot be heard, pedestrians
may not be aware of your oncoming vehicle, which
may increase the likelihood of a collision resulting
in serious injury or death. If the Pedestrian
Warning System is not operating, immediately
contact Tesla.

WARNING: It is the driver

NOTE: When Traffic-Aware Cruise Control cancels,
Model 3 does not coast. Instead, regenerative braking
slows down
Model 3 in the same way as when you move
your foot
off the accelerator when driving without
Traffic-Aware Cruise Control (see Regenerative Braking
on page 59).
WARNING: Traffic-Aware Cruise Control cancels,
or may not be available, in the following situations:

NOTE: Depending on market region, vehicle
configuration, options purchased, and software version,
your vehicle may not be equipped with Autosteer, or the
feature may not operate exactly as described.
NOTE: Autosteer is a BETA feature.
Autosteer builds upon Traffic-Aware Cruise Control (see
Traffic-Aware Cruise Control on page 81), 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 88). Autosteer detects lane markings
and the presence of vehicles and objects to
steer Model
3.
NOTE: To display more details about the roadway and its
surroundings, such as road markings, stop lights, objects
(such as trash cans and poles), etc., touch
Controls >
Autopilot > Full Self-Driving Visualization Preview (if
equipped).
CAUTION: Ensure all cameras and sensors are
clean. Dirty cameras and sensors, as well as
environmental conditions such as rain and faded
lane markings, affect performance.
WARNING: Autosteer is a hands-on feature. You
must keep your hands on the steering wheel at all
times.
WARNING: Autosteer is intended for use on
highways and limited-access roads with a fully
attentive driver. When using Autosteer, hold the
steering wheel and be mindful of road conditions
and surrounding traffic. Do not use Autosteer on
city streets, in construction zones, or in areas
where bicyclists or pedestrians may be present.
Never depend on Autosteer to determine an
appropriate driving path. Always be prepared to
take immediate action. Failure to follow these
instructions could cause damage, serious injury or
death.
Operating Autosteer
Before you can operate Autosteer, you must enable it by touching
Controls > Autopilot > Autosteer (Beta).
To indicate that Autosteer is available (but
not actively steering
Model 3), the
touchscreen displays a gray Autosteer
icon .
To initiate Autosteer, move the drive stalk fully down
twice in quick succession.
Autosteer briefly displays a message on the touchscreen
reminding you to pay attention to the road and be ready
to take over at any time. To indicate that Autosteer is
now actively steering
Model 3, the touchscreen displays
the Autosteer icon in blue. When Autosteer is able to detect lane markings, it also displays the driving lane in blue.
To initiate Autosteer when no vehicle is detected ahead
of you, you must be driving at least
18 mph (30 km/h),
unless certain vehicle and environmental conditions are met, in which case, you may be able to initiate it at lower speeds. If a vehicle is detected ahead of you, you can

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
touchscreen displays the
location in the lane that
Model 3 is moving into.
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.
Stop Light and Stop Sign Warning
NOTE: Depending on market region, vehicle
configuration, options purchased, and software version,
your vehicle may not be equipped with Stop Light and
Stop Sign Warning, or the feature may not operate
exactly as described.
While Autosteer is in use, Model 3 displays a warning on
the
touchscreen and sounds a chime if it detects that
you are likely to run through a red stop light or stop sign. If this happens,
TAKE IMMEDIATE CORRECTIVE
ACTION!
The visual and audible warnings cancel after a few seconds, or when you press the brake pedal, whichever
comes
first.
Stop Light and Stop Sign Warning provides warnings
only. It makes no attempt to slow down or stop
Model 3
at red traffic lights, stop signs, road markings, etc. If your
vehicle is equipped with Traffic Light and Stop Sign
Control, you can enable this feature to automatically
stop Model 3 at traffic lights and stop signs (see Traffic
Light and Stop Sign Control on page 94).
NOTE: Touch Controls > Autopilot > Full Self-Driving
Visualization Preview (if equipped) to display more
details about the roadway and its surroundings, such as road markings, stop lights, objects (such as trash cans
and poles), etc.

WARNING: Many unforeseen circumstances can
impair the operation of Autosteer. Always keep this

may not steer Model 3 appropriately. Always drive
attentively and be prepared to take immediate
action.

NOTE: Navigate on Autopilot is a BETA feature.
NOTE: Depending on market region, vehicle
configuration, options purchased, and software version,
your vehicle may not be equipped with Navigate on
Autopilot, or the feature may not operate exactly as
described.
When using Autosteer on a controlled-access road (such as a highway or freeway), Navigate on Autopilot guides
Model 3 to off-ramps and interchanges based on your
navigation route. Along the highway portion of a navigation route, Navigate on Autopilot also changes
lanes to prepare for exits and to minimize the driving time to your destination.
WARNING: Navigate on Autopilot does not make
driving autonomous. You must pay attention to the
road, keep your hands on the steering wheel at all
times, and remain aware of your navigation route.
WARNING: As is the case with normal driving, be
extra careful around blind corners, highway
interchanges, and exits because obstacles can
appear quickly and at any time.
WARNING: Navigate on Autopilot may not
recognize or detect oncoming vehicles, stationary
objects, and special-use lanes such as those used
exclusively for bikes, carpools, emergency vehicles,
etc. Remain alert at all times and be prepared to
take immediate action. Failure to do so can cause
damage, injury or death.
