Lane Changes
Navigate on Autopilot changes lanes to either
prepare Model 3 for an upcoming o-ramp, to
increase your driving speed (not to exceed
your set cruising speed), or to move
Model 3
out of a passing lane when you are not
actively passing other road users. A message
displays at the top of the map's turn-by-turn
direction list to notify you when an upcoming
lane change is required to stay on your
navigation route. The touchscreen displays
the upcoming driving path:
If Require Lane Change Confirmation is
turned o, Navigate on Autopilot engages
the appropriate turn signal, checks for
vehicles and objects, and when appropriate,
maneuvers
Model 3 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
o-ramp on the right side of the highway),
Navigate on Autopilot is unable to maneuver
onto the o-ramp and as a result, you are re-
routed to your destination.
WARNING:
Navigate on Autopilot may
not always attempt to exit at an o-
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 o-ramp, or make a lane
change to prepare for, or to exit at, an
o-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
o-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.
