NOTE: Resetting TPMS sensors may be
especially helpful when using Track Mode, but
remember to restore the factory TPMS setting
when returning to normal driving.
WARNING: If your Model 3 is
equipped with aftermarket tires that
differ in size from those printed on the
Tire and Loading Information Label
(see Vehicle Loading on page 219 ), it
is the driver's responsibility to
determine the correct tire pressure. Do
not drive on public roads when tires
are not inflated to the correct
pressure.
WARNING: Do not depend on TPMS
sensors to accurately determine
pressures and trigger alerts. It is the
driver's responsibility to maintain
correct tire pressures (see
Maintaining
Tire Pressures on page 201 ). Over or
under-inflated tires can result in loss
of control or tire damage, which can
lead to serious injury.
Replacing a Tire Sensor
If the Tire Pressure warning indicator displays
frequently, contact Tesla to determine if a tire
sensor needs to be replaced. If a non-Tesla
Service Center repairs or replaces a tire, the
tire sensor may not work until Tesla performs
the setup procedure.
TPMS Malfunction
Model 3 has also been equipped with a TPMS
malfunction indicator to indicate when the
system is not operating properly.
The TPMS malfunction
indicator is combined with
the tire pressure indicator
light. When the system
detects a malfunction, the
indicator flashes for
approximately one minute,
then remains continuously
lit. This sequence
continues upon
subsequent vehicle start-
ups as long as the
malfunction exists. When
the TPMS malfunction
indicator is on, the system
might not be able to
detect or signal under- or
over-inflated tires as
intended.
TPMS malfunctions can occur for a variety of
reasons, including installing replacement or
alternate tires or wheels that prevent the
TPMS from functioning properly. Always
check the TPMS malfunction indicator light
after replacing one or more tires or wheels on
your vehicle to ensure that the replacement
tires or wheels allow the TPMS to continue to
function properly.
NOTE: If a tire has been replaced or repaired
using a different tire sealant than the one
available from Tesla, and a low tire pressure is
detected, it is possible that the tire sensor has
been damaged. Contact Tesla to have the
fault repaired as soon as possible.
Seasonal Tire Types
Summer Tires
Your vehicle may be originally equipped with
high performance summer tires or all season
tires. Tesla recommends using winter tires if
driving in cold temperatures or on roads
where snow or ice may be present. Contact
Tesla for winter tire recommendations.
WARNING: In cold temperatures or on
snow or ice, summer tires do not
provide adequate traction. Selecting
and installing the appropriate tires for
winter conditions is important to
ensure the safety and optimum
performance of your Model 3.
All-Season Tires
Your Model 3 may be originally equipped with
all-season tires. These tires are designed to
provide adequate traction in most conditions
year-round, but may not provide the same
level of traction as winter tires in snowy or icy
conditions. All-season tires can be identified
by “ALL SEASON" and/or "M+S” (mud and
snow) on the tire sidewall.
