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 S 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 yoke 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.

NOTE: Depending on market region, vehicle configuration, options purchased, and software version, your vehicle may not be equipped with Traffic Light and Stop Sign Control, or the feature may not operate exactly as described.
NOTE: Traffic Light and Stop Sign Control is a BETA feature and works best on roads that are frequently driven by Tesla vehicles. Traffic Light and Stop Sign Control attempts to stop at all traffic lights and may also stop at green lights.

stop when using Traffic-Aware cruise control
or Autosteer. This feature uses the vehicle

NOTE: If, after you briefly press the
accelerator pedal to confirm that you want to
continue through the intersection, the traffic signal changes before you enter the
intersection (for example, the light changes

appropriate to proceed. Therefore, Model S stops and you must press the accelerator to proceed. At all times, it is your responsibility
to ensure the vehicle stops or accelerates
appropriately and safely.
WARNING: Traffic Light and Stop Sign Control DOES NOT turn Model S through an intersection. When in a turning lane, Model S stops at the red stop line. To proceed, briefly press the accelerator pedal
