Autosteer
Note: Autosteer is a BETA feature.
Autosteer builds upon Trac-Aware Cruise
Control (see Trac-Aware Cruise Control on
page 85), intelligently keeping Model Y in its
driving lane when cruising at a set speed.
Autosteer also allows you to use the turn
signals to move Model Y into an adjacent lane
(see Auto Lane Change on page 93). 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 Y.
Note: Touch Controls > Autopilot > Full Self-
Driving Visualization Preview to display more
details about the roadway and its
surroundings, such as road markings, stop
signs, 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
aect 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 trac. 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 Y), the
touchscreen displays a gray
Autosteer icon.
To initiate Autosteer, move the gear lever fully
down twice in quick succession.
Autosteer briefly displays a message on the
touchscreen 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 Y, the touchscreen
displays the Autosteer icon in blue. When
Autosteer is able to detect lane markings, it
also displays the driving lane in blue.
Note: To initiate Autosteer when there is no
vehicle in front of you, you must be driving at
least 18 mph (30 km/h) on a roadway with
visible lane markings. If a vehicle is detected
ahead of you, you can initiate Autosteer at any
speed under 90 mph (150 km/h), even when
stationary (if you are at least 5 feet (150 cm)
away from the vehicle).
