MODEL 3
EMERGENCY
RESPONSE GUIDE
This guide is intended only for use by trained and certified rescuers and first responders. It assumes that readers have a comprehensive
understanding of how safety systems work and have completed the appropriate training and certification required to safely handle rescue
situations. Therefore, this guide provides only the specific information required to understand and safely handle the fully electric Model 3 in
an emergency situation. It describes how to identify Model 3 and provides the locations and descriptions of its high voltage components,
airbags, inflation cylinders, seat belt pre-tensioners, and the high strength materials used in its body structure. This guide includes the high
voltage disabling procedure and any safety considerations specific to Model 3. Failure to follow recommended practices or procedures can
result in serious injury or death.
The high voltage battery is the main energy source. Model 3 does not have a traditional gasoline or diesel engine and therefore does not
have a fuel tank. The images in this guide might not match the vehicle you are working on.
