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 171

). 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 Y 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-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

Understand Your Tire Type

The type of tires that your vehicle is originally equipped

with depends on vehicle model and market region. It is

important to understand the capabilities of your

vehicle's tires and whether they are suited for summer,

all-season, or winter driving. Check the information on

the sidewall of a tire for information about a tire's

performance characteristics (see

Understanding Tire

Markings on page 192

)

Summer and All-Season Tires

Summer tires and all season tires are designed for

maximum dry and wet road performance but are not
designed to perform well in winter conditions. All-

season 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.

If driving in cold temperatures or on roads where snow
or ice may be present, Tesla recommends using winter
tires. If not equipped with winter tires, contact Tesla for
winter tire recommendations.

WARNING:

In cold temperatures or on snow or ice,

summer and all-season 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 Y.

Winter Tires

Use winter tires to increase traction in snowy or icy

conditions. When installing winter tires, always install a

complete set of four tires at the same time. Winter tires

must be the same diameter, brand, construction and

tread pattern on all four wheels. Contact Tesla for winter

tire recommendations.

Winter tires can be identified by a

mountain/snowflake symbol on the tire's

sidewall.

When driving with winter tires, you may experience

more road noise, shorter tread life, and less traction on
