Electronic stability control systems are
actively minimizing wheel spin by
controlling brake pressure and motor
power (indicator flashes). See Traction
Control on page 51. If this indicator
stays illuminated, a fault is detected
(contact Tesla immediately).
Electronic stability control systems are
no longer minimizing wheel spin. See
Traction Control on page 51.
Vehicle Hold is actively applying the
brakes. See Vehicle Hold on page
54.
A door or trunk is open. See Doors on
page 9, Rear Trunk on page 12, or
Front Trunk on page 14.

Driving Status
When Model 3 is driving (or ready to drive),
the touchscreen shows your current driving
status and a real-time visualization of the road
as detected by the Autopilot components (see
About Autopilot on page 58).
Note: The following illustration is provided for
demonstration purposes only. Depending on
vehicle options, software version, and market
region, the information displayed may be
slightly
dierent.
1. Driving speed.
2. On the energy bar, black (or white in night
brightness) represents energy being used
during acceleration and green indicates
energy being gained through regenerative
braking. A dashed line appears on the
energy bar when power available for
acceleration or power that can be gained
by regenerative braking is being limited.
Model 3 limits power for many reasons.
Here are just a few examples:
• Acceleration may be limited when the
Battery is reaching a low state of
charge or if the powertrain is hot.
• Both acceleration and regenerative
braking may be limited when the
ambient temperature is either very
warm or cool.
• Regenerative braking may be limited
when the Battery is fully charged.
3. Currently selected gear: Park, Reverse,
Neutral, or Drive.
