Regenerative braking temporarily reduced
Regen will increase as vehicle is driven
Regenerative braking performance has been temporarily reduced to below 65% of its full
capacity. The exact reduction is indicated by the dashed lines on the power meter.
While this alert is present, the deceleration rate of the vehicle due to regenerative braking will
be reduced and more brake pedal application will be required to slow the vehicle (similar to
what is needed in a gas-powered, non-electric, vehicle).
This alert is expected under the following conditions:
• Battery is near full charge:
◦
Regenerative braking is reduced when the battery is at 95% charge or higher.
• Battery is cold:
◦
The battery may not be warm enough for full regenerative braking performance
(possibly at the beginning of a drive).
◦
In extremely cold climates, this alert may remain present indefinitely and regenerative
braking may remain reduced, as driving the vehicle may not warm the battery enough to
fully restore performance.
Typically, driving will clear this alert because it will reduce the battery charge level below 95%
and sufficiently warm the battery.
This is a completely normal part of vehicle operation and should not cause alarm. The notice on
the screen is for your information only.
For more information on regenerative braking, see the Regenerative Braking section in the
Owner’s Manual.

Vehicle Hold feature unavailable
Keep brake pedal pressed while stopped
Vehicle Hold is currently unavailable due to system constraints. When stopping, use the brake
pedal to bring your vehicle to a complete stop and keep your vehicle stationary.
Continue to your destination. Your vehicle is OK to drive.
If Vehicle Hold is not available during your next drive, contact Tesla Service. Your vehicle is OK
to drive in the meantime.

Assist for low brake performance activated
To stop, keep brake pedal firmly pressed
Hydraulic Fade Compensation is active. This brake assist function activates temporarily to make
sure you have full braking capability in conditions where reduced braking performance is
detected by your vehicle.
