Trac-Aware Cruise Control
Note: Trac-Aware Cruise Control is a BETA
feature.
Trac-Aware Cruise Control uses the forward
looking cameras and the radar sensor to
determine when there is a vehicle in front of
you in the same lane. If the area in front of
Model Y is clear, Trac-Aware Cruise Control
maintains a set driving speed. When a vehicle
is detected, Trac-Aware Cruise Control is
designed to slow down Model Y as needed to
maintain a selected time-based distance from
the vehicle in front, up to the set speed.
Trac-Aware Cruise Control does not
eliminate the need to watch the road in front
of you and to manually apply the brakes when
needed.
Trac-Aware Cruise Control is primarily
intended for driving on dry, straight roads,
such as highways and freeways. It should not
be used on city streets.
Caution: Ensure all cameras and sensors
are clean before each drive. Unclean
cameras and sensors, as well as
environmental conditions such as rain and
faded lane markings, can aect Autopilot
performance.
Warning: Trac-Aware Cruise Control is
designed for your driving comfort and
convenience and is not a collision warning
or avoidance system. It is your
responsibility to stay alert, drive safely,
and be in control of the vehicle at all
times. Never depend on Trac-Aware
Cruise Control to adequately slow down
Model Y. Always watch the road in front
of you and be prepared to take corrective
action at all times. Failure to do so can
result in serious injury or death.
Warning: Although Trac-Aware Cruise
Control is capable of detecting
pedestrians and cyclists, never depend on
Trac-Aware Cruise Control to
adequately slow Model Y down for them.
Always watch the road in front of you and
be prepared to take corrective action at
all times. Failure to do so can result in
serious injury or death.
Warning: Do not use Trac-Aware Cruise
Control on city streets or on roads where
trac conditions are constantly changing.
Warning: Do not use Trac-Aware Cruise
Control on winding roads with sharp
curves, on icy or slippery road surfaces, or
when weather conditions (such as heavy
rain, snow, fog, etc.) make it inappropriate
to drive at a consistent speed. Trac-
Aware Cruise Control does not adapt
driving speed based on road and driving
conditions.
To Use Trac-Aware Cruise Control
To use Trac-Aware Cruise Control, you must
be driving at least 18 mph (30 km/h), unless a
vehicle is detected ahead of you. If a vehicle is
detected ahead of you, you can use Trac-
Aware Cruise Control at any speed, even when
stationary, provided Model Y is at least 5 feet
(150 cm) behind the detected vehicle.
When Trac-Aware Cruise
Control is available but is not
actively cruising at a
specified set speed, the
touchscreen displays a gray
speedometer icon below
your current driving speed.
The number shown in gray is
your current driving speed,
or the speed limit that is
being determined by Speed
Assist (see Controlling Speed
Assist on page 113),
whichever is greater. If you
engage Trac-Aware Cruise
Control, this is the cruising
speed that will be set.
Note: On roads where the map data
determines that a conditional speed limit
exists (for example, a speed limit based on
time of day or weather conditions), a second
speed limit displays below the first speed limit.
It is the driver's responsibility to determine
whether the conditional speed limit is
currently in eect and adjust the driving
speed accordingly.
Set the Cruising Speed
To set the cruising speed, move the cruise
control lever fully down once then release.
This sets the cruising speed to the detected
speed limit (plus any oset you've specified
using Speed Assist as described in Controlling
Speed Assist on page 113) or your current
driving speed, whichever is greater.
