Tesla Model Y: Navigation
Customize how the navigation system works:
- Navigation Volume: Increase or decrease the volume
of spoken navigation instructions by touching - or +,
respectively. Fully decreasing the volume mutes the
instructions. You can also mute navigation
instructions when a navigation route is active by
touching the volume icon on the turn-by-turn
direction list.
NOTE: This volume setting applies only to the
navigation system's spoken instructions. It does not
change the volume of media player and phone calls.
- Automatic Navigation: Enable if you want Model Y to
automatically initiate a navigation destination when
you get in your vehicle. Destinations are predicted
based on commonly driven routes, time of day, and
calendar entries (see Automatic Navigation).
- Trip Planner (if available in your market region): Use
Trip Planner to plan your driving and add stops at
superchargers if charging is needed to reach a
destination to which you are navigating (see Trip
Planner).
- Online Routing: When selected, Model Y can
automatically reroute you to a navigation destination
to avoid delays (see Online Routing ).
- Avoid Ferries: When on, navigation routes avoid the
use of ferries.
- Avoid Tolls: When on, navigation routes avoid the use
of tolls.
- Use HOV Lanes: When on, navigation routes include
the use of High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lanes. This
is particularly useful when using Navigate on
Autopilot, if equipped (see Navigate on Autopilot). You are responsible for ensuring
Model Y is
eligible to use HOV lanes.
NOTE: You can also display these navigation settings by
touching the settings icon on the map (see Maps and
Navigation).
