Tesla MODEL Y 2022 - Shifting

How to Shift
When Model Y is in Park, you must press the
brake pedal to shift.
Move the drive stalk up or down to shift into
dierent drive modes.
If you try to shift when it is prohibited by the
current driving speed, a chime sounds and
the drive mode does not change.
Reverse
Push the drive stalk all the way up and
release. You can only shift into Reverse when
Model Y is stopped or moving less than
8 km/h.
Neutral
Push the drive stalk up or down to the first
position and hold it there for more than 1
second to shift into Neutral. Neutral allows
Model Y to roll freely when you are not
pressing the brake pedal.
NOTE: You must press the brake pedal to shift
out of Neutral if driving slower than
approximately
8 km/h.
Model Y automatically shifts into Park when
you leave the driver's seat. To stay in Neutral,
use the touchscreen to engage Transport
Mode (see
Instructions for Transporters on
page 224).
Drive
Push the drive stalk all the way down and
release. You can shift into Drive when Model Y
is stopped or moving less than 8 km/h in
Reverse.
NOTE: When in Drive, push the drive stalk all
the way down and release to enable cruise
control (see Trac-Aware Cruise Control on
page 90) and push the stalk down twice in
quick succession to enable Autosteer (see
Autosteer on page 96).
Park
Press the end of the drive stalk while Model Y
is stopped.
Model Y automatically shifts into Park
whenever you connect a charge cable or if
two or more of the following conditions are
met simultaneously while traveling slower
than approximately
2 km/h:
• The driver's seat belt is unbuckled.
•
The occupancy sensor in the driver's seat
does not detect an occupant.
• The driver's door is opened.
To make it convenient to pick up passengers,
you can also unlock all doors at any time by
shifting into Park then pressing the Park
button a second time.
NOTE: You must press the brake pedal to shift
out of Park.
NOTE: The above conditions do not reflect a
comprehensive list of reasons why
Model Y
may or may not automatically shift into Park
and, in certain scenarios, it is possible for your
vehicle to shift into Park when only one of the
above conditions is true.
