About charge settings
Your vehicle has been configured with
default charging settings. However, you
can override these default settings. You
may want to optimise the charging
environment when storing your vehicle, or
you may want to extend the vehicle’s
driving range. You can also reduce the
default charge current, set a time that you
want charging to begin, and display your
electrical cost per charge.
Other charging modes
There are four available charging modes
that can be selected using the touch
screen when the charging port door is
open. For details on how to use the touch
screen to adjust settings, refer to the
‘Touch Screen Users Manual’.
The default vehicle charge mode is
Standard charge. If you select a different
charge mode when charging the vehicle,
the charge setting will change back to
Standard the next time the charging port
door is opened.
Note:
The charging mode will only revert
back to Standard if the vehicle has been
driven more than 160 m (1/10 mile)
between charges.
Standard
By default, the vehicle will charge using
the Standard charge setting. This setting
provides the best combination of vehicle
performance and maximum life of the
Battery.
Storage
If you are not using the vehicle for an
extended period of time, Tesla Motors
recommends you leave the vehicle
plugged in and change the charge setting
to Storage.
This setting maintains a lower level of
charge within the Battery to optimise the
life of the individual cells, while also
maintaining the integrity of the vehicle’s
electronic systems, such as the security
system.
If the vehicle is driven after being charged
using the Storage setting, the range of the
vehicle will be reduced because the
charge level is lower than the other charge
settings. This is temporary and will return
to normal after charging the vehicle using
the Standard setting.
This charge setting is automatically
cancelled (reverting back to Standard) if
the vehicle has been driven more than
160 m (1/10 mile) between charges.
Range
Caution: Repeated use of the Range
setting will reduce the lifetime of the
cells within the Battery.
This setting charges the Battery to the
maximum available level. It also limits the
vehicle’s power by 50%. The result is that
the vehicle can achieve the maximum
number of miles possible on a single
charge.
To preserve the life of the Battery, this
charge setting is automatically cancelled
(reverting back to Standard) after 72
hours or if the vehicle has been driven
more than 160 m (1/10 mile) between
charges.
Performance
Caution: Repeated use of the
Performance setting will reduce the
lifetime of the cells within the Battery.
This setting is available for those rare
times you want to achieve maximum
power and hence, minimize the time it
takes to accelerate from 0-100 km/h
(0-60 mph). Use this setting with caution
because it charges the cells within the
Battery to the maximum available level
and allows the Battery to run at a higher
operating temperature.
Note:
Frequent use of this setting is
strongly discouraged as it will reduce the
life of the cells within the Battery.
