Creating a Driver Profile
When you first adjust the driver

Starting Valet Mode
With Model 3 in Park, touch the driver
profileicon (located next to the Tesla "T" on the
touchscreen), then touch Valet Mode.
The
first time you enter Valet mode, you will
be prompted to create a 4-digit PIN that you
will use to cancel Valet mode.
When Valet mode is active, the touchscreen displays the word Valet above the driving
speed and the Valet mode driver
profiledisplays on the touchscreen.
You can also use the mobile app to start and
cancel Valet mode (provided Model 3 is in
Park). When using the mobile app, you do not
need to enter a PIN because you are already
required to log into the app using your Tesla
Account credentials.
Note: If you forget your PIN, reset it from
inside Model 3 by entering your Tesla Account
credentials (which also cancels Valet mode).
You can also reset your PIN using the mobile
app.
Canceling Valet Mode
With Model 3 in Park, touch the Valet Mode
driver icon on the touchscreen
