Charging Equipment
Charging equipment designed specifically to
charge your Model 3 is available from Tesla. A
Tesla Wall Connector, which installs in your
garage, is the fastest way to charge Model 3 at
home.
In most market regions, Model 3 is equipped with a Mobile Connector and the adapter(s)
needed to plug into the most commonly used power outlets. When using the MobileConnector, first plug the Mobile Connector
into the power outlet, and then plug in Model 3. For more information about your Mobile
Connector, see the Mobile Connector Owner’s
Manual (available on the touchscreen).
Additional adapters can be purchased from
Tesla.
Tesla offers adapters (for example, J1772 and
CHAdeMO) to allow you to plug into the most commonly used public charging stations in
your region. Open the charge port door using the touchscreen (see Charging Instructions on
page 157), plug the adapter into the charging
port on Model 3, and then connect the
station

Driving in Low Temperatures
Tire performance is reduced in low ambient
temperatures, resulting in reduced grip and an
increased susceptibility to damage from
impacts. Performance tires can temporarily
harden when cold, causing you to hear rotational noise for the first few miles
(kilometers) until the tires warm up.
Using Tire Chains
Tesla has tested and approved the following tire chains to increase traction in snowy
conditions. Tire chains should only be installed
on the rear tires.Tire SizeRecommended

aero covers, you must remove them before installing tire chains (see Removing and Installing Aero Covers on
page 167). Failure to do so can cause
damage not covered by the warranty.
