Summary
Tesla
does not provide physical owner's manual copies. Instead, all available owner’s manual content is integrated into the vehicle software, and only the content relevant for a given vehicle, based on vehicle configuration and software version installed, is displayed on its touchscreen. This file contains all available owner’s manual content for the vehicle converted to PDF format, and given the distribution method and NHTSA’s submission format requirements, it is the best available representative copy of owner’s manual content. However, a customer who accesses the owner’s manual via their vehicle’s touchscreen would only see the parts of this PDF file that are relevant to their vehicle.
Headlight Adjustments
To adjust the angle of the headlights, touch Controls > Service > Adjust Headlights, then follow the onscreen instructions. You
can choose which headlight you would like to adjust by selecting it on the touchscreen.
NOTE: Headlights do not require adjustments when temporarily driving into a region where the traffic direction is different (for
example, driving in right-hand traffic region, and then driving into a region with left-hand traffic).
WARNING: Proceed with caution when adjusting headlights. Tesla has carefully calibrated the position of the headlights
to be in an optimum position for most driving scenarios. Tesla recommends that you do not adjust headlights unless you
are familiar with how headlights should be adjusted. Once adjusted, you will be unable to automatically restore them to
their originally calibrated position. Contact Tesla for assistance when adjusting headlights.
Turn Signals
The turn signals flash three times or continuously, depending on how far up or down you move the stalk. Lightly push the turn
signal stalk up or down for a three-flash sequence. For a continuous signal, push the stalk fully up or down.
The turn signals stop operating when canceled by the steering wheel, by moving the stalk in the opposite direction, or lightly
pushing the stalk in the same direction once more.

a reading light turned on, it automatically turns off when CybertruckModel SModel XModel 3Model Y powers off.
Adaptive Front Lighting System (AFS)
If equipped, the Adaptive Front Lighting System (AFS) automatically adjusts the beam of the headlights to improve your
driving view. Electric sensors measure driving speed, steering angle and yaw (the rotation of the car around the vertical axis)
to determine the optimum position of the headlights based on current driving conditions. For example, to improve visibility
while driving on winding roads at night, the AFS casts the beam in the direction of the curve. When low beam headlights are
turned on and when driving at lower speeds, AFS improves lateral illumination to increase the visibility of pedestrians and
curbs, and to improve visibility when turning at a dark intersection, into a driveway, or when making a u-turn.
The Adaptive Front Lighting System (AFS) operates whenever headlights are on. If CybertruckModel SModel XModel 3Model
Y isn't moving, or is moving in reverse, the adaptive headlights do not activate. This prevents the headlights from inadvertently
blinding other drivers.
If the AFS fails, the instrument panel displays an alert. Contact Tesla Service.

Rear Reading Lights
CybertruckModel SModel XModel 3Model Y is equipped with a reading light on each side of the rear seats, located above the
door and next to the coat hangers (see Coat Hangers on page 194). To turn a reading light on or off, press its lens. If you leave
a reading light turned on, it automatically turns off when CybertruckModel SModel XModel 3Model Y powers off.
Adaptive Front Lighting System (AFS)
If equipped, the Adaptive Front Lighting System (AFS) automatically adjusts the beam of the headlights to improve your
driving view. Electric sensors measure driving speed, steering angle and yaw (the rotation of the car around the vertical axis)
to determine the optimum position of the headlights based on current driving conditions. For example, to improve visibility
while driving on winding roads at night, the AFS casts the beam in the direction of the curve. When low beam headlights are
turned on and when driving at lower speeds, AFS improves lateral illumination to increase the visibility of pedestrians and
curbs, and to improve visibility when turning at a dark intersection, into a driveway, or when making a u-turn.
The Adaptive Front Lighting System (AFS) operates whenever headlights are on. If CybertruckModel SModel XModel 3Model
Y isn't moving, or is moving in reverse, the adaptive headlights do not activate. This prevents the headlights from inadvertently
blinding other drivers.
If the AFS fails, the instrument panel displays an alert. Contact Tesla Service.
