Features
These Autopilot safety features are available
on all Model 3 vehicles:
• Lane Assist (see Lane Assist on page
74).
• Collision Avoidance Assist (see Collision
Avoidance Assist on page 76).
• Speed Assist (see Speed Assist on page
79).
These convenience features, designed to
reduce driver workload, are available only if
your Tesla vehicle is equipped with the
optional Enhanced Autopilot or Full Self-
Driving Capability packages:
•
Trac-Aware Cruise Control (see Trac-
Aware Cruise Control on page 61).
• Autosteer (see Autosteer on page 67).
• Auto Lane Change (see Auto Lane
Change on page 70).
You can enable/disable Autopilot features and
in some cases, control how they work. To
access settings for Autopilot features, touch
Controls > Autopilot > Settings.
Calibration
Model 3 must maneuver with a great deal of
precision when Autopilot features are being
used. Therefore, before some features (for
example,
Trac-Aware Cruise Control or
Autosteer) can be used for the first time, some
cameras must complete a self-calibration
process.
Calibration typically completes after driving
20-25 miles (32-40 km), but the distance
varies depending on road and environmental
conditions. Driving on a straight road with
highly-visible lane lines allows Model 3 to
calibrate quicker. When calibration is
complete, the features are available for use
the next time you drive (i.e. you must stop and
shift into Park before you can use the
features). Contact Tesla if your Model 3 has
not completed the calibration process after
driving 100 miles (160 km).
Note: If you attempt to use a feature that is
not available until the calibration process is
complete, the feature will not be enabled and
the touchscreen displays a message.
Note: Model 3 repeats the calibration process
if the cameras are serviced by Tesla and in
some cases, after a software update.
Limitations
Many factors can impact the performance of
Autopilot components, causing them to be
unable to function as intended. These include
(but are not limited to):
• Poor visibility (due to heavy rain, snow,
fog, etc.).
• Bright light (due to oncoming headlights,
direct sunlight, etc.).
• Damage or obstructions caused by mud,
ice, snow, etc.
• Interference or obstruction by object(s)
mounted onto the vehicle (such as a bike
rack).
• Obstruction caused by applying excessive
paint or adhesive products (such as
wraps, stickers, rubber coating, etc.) onto
the vehicle.
• Narrow or winding roads.
• A damaged or misaligned bumper.
• Interference from other equipment that
generates ultrasonic waves.
• Extremely hot or cold temperatures.
Warning: The list above does not
represent an exhaustive list of situations
that may interfere with proper operation
of Autopilot components. Never depend
on these components to keep you safe. It
is the driver's responsibility to stay alert,
drive safely, and be in control of the
vehicle at all times.
Caution: If a windshield replacement is
needed, take your vehicle to Tesla Service.
This will ensure appropriate handling and
mounting of the camera(s). Failure to do
so can cause one or more Autopilot
features to malfunction.
Cleaning Cameras and Sensors
To ensure the various Autopilot components
can provide information that is as accurate as
possible, keep them clean and free of
obstructions or damage. Occasionally remove
any buildup of dirt by wiping the components
with a soft cloth dampened with warm water.
Caution:
Do not use chemical-based or
abrasive cleaners. Doing so can damage
surfaces.
Caution: Avoid using a high-pressure
power washer.
Caution: Do not clean an ultrasonic
sensor or camera lens with a sharp or
