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 Y into the adjacent lane.
If Require Lane Change Confirmation is turned on, you
must
engage the appropriate turn signal to confirm that
you want Navigate on Autopilot to proceed with 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 is unable to maneuver onto the
off-ramp and as a result, you are re-routed 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 Y,
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 touchscreen 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.

Stop Signs and Road Markings
When driving with Autosteer or Traffic-aware Cruise Control engaged, and Traffic Light and Stop Sign Control
enabled,
Model Y is designed to respond as follows when approaching intersections controlled by stop signs, stop
lines, or road markings:
Type of IntersectionVehicle Intended Response
No Traffic Control
Arm of T-junction
Model Y assumes the right of way and continues straight without slowing down or
stopping.
End of T-junction
If Model Y detects a T-junction based on the map data, Model Y slows down and
comes to a complete stop at the red stop line displayed on the
touchscreen. When
you want to proceed, you must take over steering and acceleration.
WARNING: Model Y may not stop at a T-junction that does not have a stop
sign or stop line, or if the T-junction is not included in the map data. Drive
attentively and be prepared to stop (when necessary and/or appropriate).
Stop Sign
Model Y slows down and comes to a complete stop at the red stop line displayed on
the
touchscreen. When you want to proceed through the intersection, you must
press down on the drive stalk or briefly press the accelerator pedal.
NOTE: If you confirm that you want to proceed through an intersection controlled by
a stop sign by
pressing down on the drive stalk or briefly pressing the accelerator
pedal before
Model Y has stopped, your confirmation is ignored. Model Y is not
designed to proceed through a stop sign without stopping.
NOTE: Even when using Autosteer, and even if you have engaged a turn signal, you
must turn the
steering wheel yourself (which cancels Autosteer) to complete a turn
at an intersection.

About the Security System
If Model Y does not detect an authenticated phone, key
fob, or key card and a locked door or trunk is opened, an alarm sounds and the headlights and turn signals
flash.
To deactivate the alarm, press any button on the mobile
app or tap your key card or key fob against the card reader located
approximately one third the way up of
the driver
