Getting Maximum Range
Driving Tips to Maximize Range
You can maximize your driving range using
the same driving habits that you use to conserve fuel in a gasoline-powered vehicle. In
addition to driving habits, energy
consumption depends on environmental conditions (such as exceptionally cold or hot
weather and driving on roads with steep hills). To get the maximum range from a charge:

Rear View Camera
Camera Location
Model 3 is equipped with a rear view camera
located above the rear license plate.
Whenever you shift into Reverse, the
touchscreen displays the view from the
camera. Lines show your driving path based
on the position of the steering wheel. These
lines adjust appropriately as you move the
steering wheel.
Note: Visual feedback from the parking
sensors display on the touchscreen (see Park
Assist on page 70).
To display the view from the camera at any
time:
Touch the camera icon on the
"Cards" area on the touchscreen.Warning: Never depend on the rear view
camera to inform you if the area behind
you is free of objects and/or people when
reversing. The camera may not detect
objects or barriers that can potentially
cause damage or injury. In addition, several external factors can reduce the
performance of the camera, including a
dirty or obstructed lens. Therefore,
depending on the rear view camera to
determine if Model 3 is approaching an
obstruction can result in damage to the vehicle and/or objects, and canpotentially cause serious injury. Always
inspect the area with your own eyes.
When reversing, perform shoulder checks and use all mirrors. Use the camera forguidance purposes only. It is not intendedto replace your own direct visual checks
and is not a substitute for careful driving.
Cleaning the Camera
To ensure a clear picture, keep the camera lens clean, and free of obstructions. Remove any
buildup of dirt by occasionally wiping the
camera lens with a soft damp cloth.
Caution: Do not use chemical-based or
abrasive cleaners. Doing so can damage
the surface of the camera lens.

Pedestrian Warning System
The Pedestrian Warning System causes Model 3 to emit sound when driving below 20 mph
(32 km/h). Electric vehicles operate quietly
and this sound helps to alert pedestrians of
your oncoming vehicle. The sound, which
activates whenever Model 3 is shifted out of
Park, and gets louder as speed increases.
The touchscreen displays this
indicator when the Pedestrian
Warning System is not active.
Note: The Pedestrian Warning System is not
available in vehicles manufactured prior to
September 1, 2019.
Warning: If sound cannot be heard,
pedestrians may not be aware of your
oncoming vehicle, which may increase the likelihood of a collision resulting in serious
injury or death. If the Pedestrian Warning
System is not operating, immediately
contact Tesla.
