2019 TESLA MODEL 3 change time

Caution: The manual door release is
designed to be used only in situations
when Model 3 has no power. Whenever
Model 3 has power, use the button
located at the top of the interior door
handle.
Interior Locking and Unlocking
While sitting inside Model 3, you can lock and
unlock all doors and trunks by touching the
lock icon on the touchscreen.
The icon changes to indicate
whether doors are locked or
unlocked.
You can also unlock the doors by pressing the
Park button on the end of the gear selector a
second time. Pressing this button once engages the Park gear and pressing it againunlocks the doors.
Walk-Away Door Lock Doors and trunks can automatically lockwhenever you walk away carrying your
authenticated phone. To turn this feature on or
off, touch Controls > Locks > Walk-Away Door
Lock .
When the doors lock, the exterior lights

Lights
Controlling Lights Touch Controls > Lights on the touchscreen to
control the lights.
In addition to the lights that you can control
from the touchscreen, Model 3 has
convenience lights that operate automatically
based on what you are doing. For example, in
low ambient lighting conditions, interior lights, marker lights, tail lights, and puddle lights turn
on when you unlock Model 3, when you open
a door, and when you shift into Park. They turn
off after a minute or two or when you shift
into a driving gear or lock Model 3.
Note: The image below is provided for
demonstration purposes only. Depending on vehicle options, software version and market
region, your touchscreen may appear slightly
different.
1. Exterior lights (headlights, tail lights,
position lights and license plate lights) are
set to AUTO each time you start Model 3.
When set to AUTO, exterior lights
automatically turn on when driving in low
lighting conditions. If you change to a different setting, lights always revert to
AUTO on your next drive.
Touch one of these options to temporarily
change the exterior light setting:OFFExterior lights turn off until you
manually turn them back on or
until the next time you drive.
Note: Any exterior lights that
are required to remain on in
your market region will turn on
whenever a driving gear (Drive
or Reverse) is engaged.Only the exterior position lights,
tail lights and license plate
lights turn on.Exterior lights turn on.
Note: If equipped with the premium
package, Model 3 has a series of LED
lights along the rim of the headlights, also referred to as "signature" lights. These
lights automatically turn on whenever
Model 3 is powered on and a driving gear
(Drive or Reverse) is engaged.
Warning: Always ensure that your
headlights are on during low visibility conditions. Failure to do so may result
in a collision.
2. A separate control is available to turn on
fog lights (if equipped). When on, fog
lights operate whenever low beam headlights are on. When headlights are
turned off, fog lights also turn off.

Speed Assist
How Speed Assist Works
When the Speed Limit Warning is turned on,
the touchscreen displays a speed limit as determined by GPS data. You can touch this
speed limit sign to automatically change the
set speed to the detected speed limit
(including any offsets that you have set).
Warnings (described later) take effect when
you exceed this limit.
In situations where Speed Assist is unable to
determine a speed limit (for example, speed
limit signs and GPS data are not available at the current location), or if Speed Assist is
uncertain that an acquired speed limit is
accurate (for example, although a speed limit sign was initially detected, some time has
passed before a subsequent sign has been
detected), the touchscreen may not display a
speed limit sign and warnings do not take effect.
If you set the speed limit warning to Display
(see Controlling Speed Assist on page 92)
and exceed the determined speed limit, the
speed limit sign on the touchscreen increases
in size.
If you set the speed limit warning to Chime
(see Controlling Speed Assist on page 92)
and exceed the determined speed limit, the
speed limit sign on the touchscreen increases
in size and Model 3 also sounds a warning
chime.
Note: Speed limit warnings go away after ten
seconds, or when Model 3 slows down below
the specified limit.
Warning:
Do not rely on Speed Assist to
determine the appropriate speed limit ordriving speed. Always drive at a safe
speed based on traffic and road
conditions.
Controlling Speed Assist
To adjust the Speed Limit Warning setting,
touch Controls > Autopilot > Speed Limit
Warning , then choose one of these options:

The route overview icon displays
when a navigation route is active.
Touch this icon at any time to view
an overview of your navigation
route, or to change the orientation
of the map (see Overview on page
106), which also zooms the map to
show the current leg of your trip.
The black pin at the end of the
route line represents your
destination.Mute/unmute navigation volume.
Note: You can also mute the
volume of the navigation system by
pressing the scroll button on the
left side of the steering wheel while
navigation instructions are being
spoken. A volume control specific
to navigation instructions is also
available by touching the settings
icon on the map (see Overview on
page 106).
To stop navigating, touch CANCEL, located
below the turn-by-turn direction list.
Note: If a data connection is not available,
onboard maps allow you to navigate to any
location, but you must enter the location

Battery Information
About the Battery
Model 3 has one of the most sophisticated
battery systems in the world. The most
important way to preserve the Battery is to LEAVE YOUR VEHICLE PLUGGED IN when
you are not using it. This is particularly important if you are not planning to drive
Model 3 for several weeks. When plugged in,
Model 3 wakes up when needed to
automatically maintain a charge level that
maximizes the lifetime of the Battery.
Note: When left idle and unplugged, your
vehicle periodically uses energy from the Battery for system tests and recharging the
12V battery when necessary.
There is no advantage to waiting until the
Battery’s level is low before charging. In fact, the Battery performs best when charged
regularly.
Note: If the Model 3 Battery becomes
completely discharged in a situation in which
towing is required, the owner is responsible
for towing expenses. Discharge-related towing
expenses are not covered under the Roadside
Assistance policy.
The peak charging rate of the Battery may
decrease slightly after a large number of DC
Fast Charging sessions, such as those at
Superchargers. To ensure maximum driving
range and Battery safety, the Battery charge
rate is decreased when the Battery is too cold,
when the Battery’s charge is nearly full, and when the Battery conditions change with
usage and age. These changes in the condition of the Battery are driven by battery physics
and may increase the total Supercharging
duration by a few minutes over time.
Battery Care
Never allow the Battery to fully discharge.
Even when Model 3 is not being driven, its
Battery discharges very slowly to power the
onboard electronics. The Battery can
discharge at a rate of approximately 1% per day, though the discharge rate may vary
depending on environmental factors (such as
cold weather), vehicle configuration, and your
selected settings on the touchscreen.
Situations can arise in which you must leave
Model 3 unplugged for an extended period of time (for example, at an airport when
traveling). In these situations, keep the 1% in
mind to ensure that you leave the Battery with a sufficient charge level. For example, over a
two week period (14 days), the Battery may
discharge by approximately 14%.
Discharging the Battery to 0% may result in
damage to vehicle components. To protect
against a complete discharge, Model 3 enters
a low-power consumption mode when the
displayed charge level drops to approximately
0%. In this mode, the Battery stops supporting
the onboard electronics and auxiliary 12V
battery. Once this low-power consumption
mode is active, immediately plug in Model 3 to
prevent a jump-start and 12V battery
replacement.
Note: If the vehicle is unresponsive and will
not unlock, open, or charge, then the 12V
battery may have become discharged. In this
situation, contact Tesla.
Temperature Limits
For better long-term performance, avoid
exposing Model 3 to ambient temperatures
above 140
