Interior Overview

The turn signals stop operating when canceledby the steering wheel, or when you return the
lever to the central position.
The corresponding turn signal
indicator lights up on the instrument
panel when a turn signal is
operating. You also hear a clicking
sound.Warning: If you have purchased the
optional Enhanced Autopilot or Full Self-
Driving Capability packages and Traffic-
Aware Cruise Control is active, engaging
a turn signal can cause Model X to
accelerate when using Traffic-Aware
Cruise Control in specific situations (see
Overtake Acceleration on page 92).Warning: If you have purchased the
optional Enhanced Autopilot or Full Self-
Driving Capability packages and
Autosteer is active, engaging a turn signal
may cause Model X to change lanes (see Auto Lane Change on page 98).
Lane Change Flash
To indicate a lane change, quickly press the
lever up or down against the spring pressure,
then release. The corresponding turn signal

Note: Traffic-Aware Cruise Control is a BETA
feature.

optional Enhanced Autopilot or Full Self-
Driving Capability package, refer to the owner
The gray speedometer icon
on the instrument panel
turns blue and displays the
set speed to indicate that
Traffic-Aware Cruise Control
is active.
Note: The minimum set speed is 30 km/h. The
maximum set speed is 150 km/h. It is the

brake/decelerate for stationary vehicles
or objects, especially in situations when
you are driving over 80 km/h and in situations where a vehicle you are
following moves out of your driving path and a stationary vehicle or object is in
front of you. Always pay attention to the
road ahead and stay prepared to take
immediate corrective action. Depending
on Traffic-Aware Cruise Control to avoid a
collision can result in serious injury or death. In addition, Traffic-Aware Cruise
Control may react to vehicles or objects
that either do not exist or are not in the
lane of travel, causing Model X 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 X to exceed your set
speed (and potentially the road
Note: Your set speed will use your current
driving speed if you move the cruise control lever up or down.
Note: If Speed Assist is unable to determine a
speed limit, your set speed does not change
when you pull the cruise control lever toward
you.Warning: Do not rely on Speed Assist or
Traffic-Aware Cruise Control to determine
an accurate or appropriate cruising
speed. Always cruise at a safe speed
based on road conditions and applicable
speed limits.
Changing the Set Speed
To change the set speed while using Traffic-
Aware Cruise Control, move the cruise control
lever up (increase) or down (decrease) until
your desired set speed is displayed.
To increase/decrease speed by 1 km/h, move
the lever up or down to the first position and
release. To increase/decrease speed to the closest 5 km/h increment, move the lever up/
down to the second position and release. For
example, if you are traveling at 83 km/h and you move the lever up to the second positionand release, the speed increases to 85 km/h.
You can also increase/decrease speed by
holding the lever in the full up/down position
and releasing when the desired speed displays
below the cruise control icon.
To cruise at the speed limit that is currently
being determined by Speed Assist (including any offsets that you have set), pull the cruise
control lever toward you. See Speed Assist on
page 110.
Note: It may take a few seconds for Model X
to reach the new cruising speed, assuming
Model X does not detect a vehicle ahead
driving slower than your set speed.
Overtake Acceleration
When following a vehicle with Traffic-Aware
Cruise Control active, brie
never depend on Overtake Acceleration
to increase your driving speed.Warning: Overtake Acceleration increases
your driving speed whenever the
appropriate turn signal is engaged, and
accelerates Model X closer to the vehicle
ahead. Although Traffic-Aware Cruise
Control continues to maintain distance
from the vehicle ahead, it is important to be aware that your selected following
distance is reduced when Overtake
Acceleration is active, particularly in cases
where it may not be your intention to
overtake the vehicle you are following.
Canceling and Resuming
To manually cancel Traffic-Aware Cruise
Control, brie
