ahead. Although Trac-Aware Cruise
Control continues to maintain distance
from the vehicle ahead, it is important to
be aware that your selected following
distance is reduced when Overtake
Acceleration is active, particularly in cases
where it may not be your intention to
overtake the vehicle you are following.
Canceling and Resuming
To manually cancel Trac-Aware Cruise
Control, move the gear lever up and release or
press the brake pedal. The speedometer icon
on the touchscreen turns gray to indicate that
Trac-Aware Cruise Control is no longer
active.
Warning: Do not hold the gear lever up
for more than one second. Doing so
cancels Trac-Aware Cruise Control and
shifts Model 3 into Neutral.
To re-enable cruising at the current driving
speed, move the gear lever fully down once
then release.
Note: When Trac-Aware Cruise Control
cancels, Model 3 does not coast. Instead,
regenerative braking slows down Model 3 in
the same way as when you move your foot o
the accelerator when driving without Trac-
Aware
Cruise Control (see Regenerative
Braking on page 56).
Warning: Trac-Aware Cruise Control
cancels, or may not be available, in the
following situations:
• You press the brake pedal.
• Your driving speed exceeds the
maximum cruising speed of 150 km/h.
• You shift Model 3 into a dierent gear.
• A door is opened.
• The view from the radar sensor or
camera(s) is obstructed. This could
be caused by dirt, mud, ice, snow, fog,
etc.
• The traction control setting is
manually disabled or is repeatedly
engaging to prevent wheels from
slipping.
• The wheels are spinning while at a
standstill.
• The Trac-Aware Cruise Control
system is failing or requires service.
When Trac-Aware Cruise Control is
unavailable or cancels, Model 3 no longer
drives consistently at a set speed and no
longer maintains a specified distance
from the vehicle ahead.
Warning: Trac-Aware Cruise Control can
cancel unexpectedly at any time for
unforeseen reasons. Always watch the
road in front of you and stay prepared to
take appropriate action. It is the driver's
responsibility to be in control of Model 3
at all times.
Summary of Cruise Indicators
Trac-Aware
Cruise Control is
available but is not actively
controlling your speed until you
activate it. The number shown in
gray is determined by Speed Assist
(see Controlling Speed Assist on
page 89).
Trac-Aware Cruise Control is
operating and is either maintaining
the set speed (no vehicle in front) or
is maintaining a chosen following
distance from a vehicle ahead (up to
the set speed).
Model 3 has fully stopped but is in a
HOLD state. If safe, press the
accelerator pedal to resume cruising
at the set speed.
