Secure all cargo before moving Model 3, and place
heavy cargo in the lower trunk compartment.
Distribute cargo weight between the front and rear
trunks.
CAUTION:
Never load more than 130 lbs (60 kg) in
the upper compartment of the rear trunk or more
than 285 lbs (130 kg) in the lower compartment.
Doing so can cause damage.
Interior Emergency Trunk Release
An illuminated mechanical release located inside the
rear trunk allows you to open the rear trunk from the
inside if Model 3 has no electrical power. This mechanical
release also allows a person locked inside to get out.
1. Firmly push the illuminated button in the direction of
the arrow to release the latch.
2. Push the rear trunk open.
NOTE:
The button glows for several hours after a brief
exposure to ambient light.
WARNING:
Do not allow children to play inside the
trunk or become locked inside. An unrestrained
child could suffer serious injury or death in a crash.
A child could suffer heat exhaustion if trapped in
the vehicle, especially without climate control on.
