Popup Messages and Vehicle Alerts
Popup messages appear at the bottom of the touchscreen. For example, a seat belt reminder appears if a seat belt is unfastened in an occupied seat, an alert appears to notify you of an incoming phone call, a text message appears (when applicable), and voice commands appear when in use. If applicable, touch options from these popup messages (for example, accept/decline a phone call, choose an option from the headlight menu, etc.). To dismiss a
popup message, swipe it downward.
If an alert appears on your vehicle

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.
NOTE: Navigate on Autopilot is a BETA feature.
When using Autosteer on a controlled-access highway (a main highway on which road users enter and exit
using on-ramps and
off-ramps). 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 (route-based lane changes) and to minimize the driving time to your destination (speed-based lane changes).
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, interchanges,
and on-ramps and off-ramps - 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.
Enabling and Customizing Navigate
on Autopilot
To enable Navigate on Autopilot, touch Controls >
Autopilot > Navigate on Autopilot (Beta). Then, to
customize how you want Navigate on Autopilot to operate, touch
Customize Navigate on Autopilot:

Navigate on Autopilot activates and deactivates as appropriate, based on the type of road you are driving on. For example, if Autosteer is active and Navigate on Autopilot is enabled, Navigate on Autopilot
automatically becomes active when you reach a
controlled-access highway on your navigation route.
Whenever Navigate on Autopilot is active, the
touchscreen displays the driving lane as a single blue
line in front of
Model 3:
When Navigate on Autopilot is active and you approach an
off-ramp or interchange along your navigation route,
the appropriate turn signal engages and Autosteer maneuvers
Model 3 onto the off-ramp or interchange.
WARNING: Never depend on Navigate on
Autopilot to determine an appropriate lane at an
off-ramp. Stay alert and perform visual checks to
ensure that the driving lane is safe and
appropriate.
When you leave a controlled-access highway (for example, you take an exit or you enter a section of the navigation route that is no longer supported), Navigate on Autopilot reverts back to Autosteer

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 3,
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.

92MODEL 3 Owner

If you have defined a navigation address for your home
or work locations, you can use a voice command to navigate there by saying
"Navigate home" or "Take me
to work".
Contacts
To call or text a contact on your Bluetooth-connected phone (see
Phone, Calendar, and Web Conferencing on
page 122), say:

Navigation SettingsThe navigation settings icon displays when you touch
... once you start navigating to a
destination.
NOTE: You can also access navigation
settings by touching
Controls >
Navigation.
Touch the navigation settings icon to customize the navigation system to suit your preferences (the available settings vary depending on your market region and
vehicle
configuration):

While navigating, the map tracks your location and
displays the current leg of your trip. You can display the
entire route at any time by swiping down to expand the
turn-by-turn direction list or touching the route overview
icon.
To stop navigating, touch Cancel, located in the bottom
corner of the turn-by-turn direction list.
If Navigate on Autopilot (if available in
your market region) is enabled, you can
turn it on for the navigation route by
touching
Navigate on Autopilot in the
turn-by-turn direction list (when the
feature is active, the icon is blue).
Navigate
on Autopilot is a full self-driving (Beta)
feature that automatically changes lanes
and steers
Model 3 on controlled-access
roads (like highways and freeways), along a
navigation route. For details, see
Navigate
on Autopilot on page 90.
Selecting an Alternate Route
Depending on market region and vehicle configuration,
this feature may not be available on your vehicle. Your
vehicle must be equipped with Premium Connectivity.
After you have entered a destination with one stop, the
map displays up to three alternate routes. This allows you to easily compare total travel time and
traffic
information for each route. If you do not select a
preferred route within the timeout period, the fastest route is automatically selected.
Adding Stops to a Route
After you have entered a destination, you can edit your
route by adding, deleting or reordering stops. Touch the three dots at the bottom of the turn-by-turn direction
list to view options to edit your route.
Add Stop allows you to add a stop by
searching for a location or adding a Home,
Recent or Favorite destination. You can
also add a stop by touching any pin on the map and selecting
Add from the popup.
Edit Stop allows you to set up a complex
trip by adding or deleting stops on your route. Drag and drop stops by touching the equal sign to reorder your trip.
Automatic Navigation
NOTE: Automatic Navigation may not be available in all
market regions and on all vehicle configurations.
Automatic Navigation can predict a destination when
you get in your vehicle. When your phone
