3. Currently selected gear: Park, Reverse,
Neutral, or Drive.
4. Autosteer (if equipped). When Autosteer
is available but you haven't activated it,
the icon is gray. When Autosteer is
actively steering Model 3, the icon is blue.
5. The car in front of you (if applicable).
6. Your Model 3. Colored lines radiate from
the image of your Model 3 as objects are
detected (other motorists, guard rails,
etc.). The location of the lines correspond
to the location of the detected object. The
color of the lines (white, yellow, orange, or
red) represents the object's proximity to
Model 3, with white being the farthest and
red being very close and requiring your
immediate attention. See Lane Assist on
page 99.
7. When Autosteer is active (if equipped)
and detecting the driving lane, the lane is
highlighted in blue (see Autosteer on
page 88).
8. Total estimated driving distance (or
energy) available. Instead of driving
distance, you can display the percentage
of battery energy remaining. To do so,
touch Controls > Display > Energy
Display > Energy (see Controls on page
107).
Note: When anticipating when you need
to charge, use range estimates as a
general guideline only.
Note: In cold weather, some of the stored
energy in the Battery may not be available
until the Battery warms up. When this
happens, a portion of the Battery meter is
blue and the driving distance value has a
snowflake image next to it. If Model 3 is
plugged in, you can heat your Battery
using wall power by turning on climate
control using the mobile app. When the
Battery warms up, the blue portion on the
meter and the snowflake image are no
longer displayed.
9. The detected speed limit (see Speed
Assist on page 105)
Note: On roads where the map data
determines that a conditional speed limit
exists (for example, a speed limit based on
time of day or weather conditions), a
second speed limit displays below the first
speed limit. It is the driver's responsibility
to determine whether the conditional
speed limit is currently in eect and adjust
the driving speed accordingly.
.
10.
The set cruising speed. When Trac-
Aware Cruise Control (if equipped) is
available but you haven't set a cruising
speed, the icon is gray and the speed is
not shown (see Trac-Aware Cruise
Control on page 82).
Warning: Pay attention to important alert
messages that display on the car status
window. Ignoring these messages can
result in serious injury or death.
Warning: Although the touchscreen
shows surrounding trac, some vehicles
may not be displayed. Never rely on the
touchscreen to determine if a vehicle is
present (for example, in your blind spot).
Always use your mirrors and perform
shoulder checks.
