Turn Signals

Move the left-hand steering column lever up
(before turning right) or down (before turning
left).
The turn signals stop operating when
canceled by the steering wheel, or when you
return the lever to the central position.
The corresponding turn signal
indicator lights up on the instrument
panel when a turn signal is
operating. You also hear a clicking
sound.
Warning: If Model S is equipped with both
Autopilot and the Tech Package option,
engaging a turn signal can cause Model S
to accelerate when using Traffic-Aware
Cruise Control in specific situations. See
Overtake Acceleration

Hazard Warning Flashers

To turn on the hazard warning flashers, press
the button located on the side of the
touchscreen closest to the steering wheel. All
turn signals flash. Press again to turn off.
