"Saliba begins with Tesla's first hidden feature: The Green Traffic Light Chime. "When you're on your phone at a red light, the car will give you a notification when it goes green," he explained. The feature is not turned on by default and will need to be enabled to use. To turn it on, go to the car's touchscreen, select Controls > Autopilot, and toggle on Green Traffic Light Chime. The feature works when enabled and if Traffic-Aware Cruise Control isn't actively in use."
"The next must-use hidden Tesla feature is the Walk-Away Door Lock. Using your phone as a key, the car can automatically lock when you walk away and unlock as you approach. "When you walk away from your Tesla, the car will automatically lock. You walk up to it, it automatically will unlock," Saliba continued. To turn this feature on or off, touch Controls > Locks > Walk-Away Door Lock. Just be mindful of Tesla's history of locking people in and out."
"According to Tesla, Autosteer assists with steering by detecting lane markings and the presence of vehicles and objects, helping guide your car safely on the road. "I can't tell you how many Tesla owners I see that have Autosteer off. Please turn Autosteer on," he urged. "Enable it, and you can now have basic autopilot function." To activate the feature, go to Controls > Autopilot > Autosteer. That is, unless you have a Cybertruck."
Tesla vehicles include several useful features that are disabled by default and should be enabled for convenience and safety. The Green Traffic Light Chime notifies drivers when a light turns green; enable at Controls > Autopilot. The Walk-Away Door Lock uses a phone as a key to lock automatically when walking away and unlock on approach; enable at Controls > Locks > Walk-Away Door Lock; exercise caution due to past lock incidents. Autosteer assists steering by detecting lane markings and nearby vehicles; enable at Controls > Autopilot > Autosteer. The Energy Display allows changing the energy display from percent.
