If your Model Y comes within approximately 3 mph (5
km/h) of the selected maximum speed, a chime sounds
and text appears on the touchscreen above the driving
speed. Additionally, your mobile app sends you a
notification.
To enable Speed Limit Mode:
1.
Ensure the vehicle is in Park.
2.
Touch Controls > Safety & Security > Speed Limit
Mode on the touchscreen or CONTROLS in your
mobile app.
3.
Select the maximum driving speed that you would
like to limit the vehicle to.
4.
Drag the slider to the ON position.
5.
Enter the 4-digit PIN that you want to use to disable and enable Speed Limit Mode.
NOTE: If you forget the PIN, you can disable Speed
Limit Mode by entering the login credentials for your Tesla Account.
NOTE: When Speed Limit Mode is enabled, the
acceleration setting (
Controls > Driving > Acceleration)
is automatically set to
Chill.
WARNING: Driving downhill can increase driving
speed, causing the vehicle to exceed your chosen
maximum speed.
WARNING: Speed Limit Mode is not a
replacement for good judgment, driver training,
and the need to closely monitor roadway speed
limits and driving conditions. Accidents can occur
at any speed.
Erasing Personal Data
You can erase all personal data (saved addresses, music favorites,
HomeLink programming, etc.) and restore all
customized settings to their factory defaults. This is useful when transferring ownership of
Model Y. Touch
Controls > Service > FACTORY RESET. Before erasing,
Model Y verifies your credentials by prompting you to
enter the user name and password associated with your Tesla Account.
