◦
Brightness
: Drag the slider to manually control the brightness level of the touchscreen.
When the AUTO brightness is on, the touchscreen is further adjusted based on both the
surroundings and by learning your preferences (for example, it remembers the type of
manual adjustments you make).
◦
Screen Clean Mode
: When enabled, your touchscreen darkens and is temporarily disabled
to facilitate cleaning. Follow the onscreen instructions to exit Screen Clean Mode.
Customize how the units and languages are displayed:
◦
Language
: Choose the language that is displayed on the touchscreen.
NOTE:
Model 3 must be in Park to change the language. When you change the language,
you experience a brief delay as the vehicle shuts down and restarts the touchscreen.
◦
Region Format
: Choose a region to define the formatting convention used to display
dates (mm dd yy/dd-mm-yy, etc.) and decimal separators (5.123, 5,123, etc.).
◦
Navigation Language
: Choose the language used for navigation instructions.
◦
Time Format
: Choose if time is displayed in 12 or 24 hour format.
◦
Energy Display
: Display remaining energy and charging units as either a percentage of
battery energy remaining, or as an estimate of the distance you can drive.
◦
Distance
: Choose if miles or kilometers are used when displaying range, speed, energy,
trip meters, map searches and navigation routes.
◦
Temperature
: Choose if temperature is displayed in °C or °F.
◦
Tire Pressure
: Choose if tire pressures are displayed in BAR or PSI.
Driving
◦
Acceleration
: Adjust the amount of acceleration.
Chill
limits acceleration for a slightly
smoother and gentler ride, whereas
Standard
or
Sport
(depending on vehicle
configuration) provides the normal level of acceleration.
NOTE:
When Chill is selected,
Chill
displays on the touchscreen above the driving speed.
◦
Steering Mode
: Adjust the amount of effort required to turn the steering wheel.
Sport
feels more responsive whereas
Comfort
feels easier to drive and park (see
).
◦
Regenerative Braking
: When you release the accelerator when driving, regenerative
braking slows Model 3 and feeds any surplus energy back to the Battery. If set to
LOW
,
Model 3 does not slow down as quickly, but also feeds less energy back to the Battery (see
Regenerative Braking on page 78
).
NOTE:
Regardless of the setting selected, the energy gained by regenerative braking is
reduced if the Battery is full, or is extremely cold or hot (in which case, surplus energy is
used to heat or cool it).
◦
Stopping Mode
: Choose how you want Model 3 to behave once regenerative braking has
reduced the driving speed to a very low speed, a driving gear is still engaged, and both the
accelerator and brake pedals are released. See
. You can adjust
this setting only when Model 3 is in Park.
◦
Track Mode
: (available on Performance vehicles only) when enabled, this mode modifies
the vehicle's stability control, traction control, regenerative braking, and cooling system to
increase performance and handling while driving on closed circuit courses (see
).
◦
Slip Start
: Turn Slip Start ON to disable traction control and allow wheels to spin to make
it easier to dislodge the vehicle when stuck in mud, snow, ice, etc. (see
).
