NOTE: Depending on market region, vehicle
configuration, options purchased, and software version,
your vehicle may not be equipped with Autosteer.
NOTE: Autosteer is a BETA feature.
Autosteer builds upon Trac-Aware Cruise Control (see
Trac-Aware Cruise Control on page 82), intelligently
keeping Model S in its driving lane when cruising at a set
speed. Autosteer also allows you to use the turn signals
to move Model S into an adjacent lane (see Auto Lane
Change on page 90). Using the vehicle's camera(s),
the radar sensor, and the ultrasonic sensors, Autosteer
detects lane markings and the presence of vehicles and
objects to
steer Model S.
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.
CAUTION:
Ensure all cameras and sensors are
clean. Unclean cameras and sensors, as well as
environmental conditions such as rain and faded
lane markings, can aect Autopilot 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 only 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 trac. 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 S), the instrument panel
displays a gray Autosteer icon on
the right side of the driving speed.
To initiate Autosteer, pull the Autopilot stalk toward you
twice in quick succession.
Autosteer briefly displays a message on the instrument
panel 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 S, the
instrument panel 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
initiate Autosteer at any speed, even when stationary,
provided
Model S is at least 5 feet (150 cm) behind the
detected vehicle.
NOTE: The maximum cruising speed is 90 mph (150
km/h). It is the driver's responsibility to cruise at a safe
speed based on road conditions and speed limits.
