Tesla MODEL 3 2012 - Windows

Opening and Closing
Press down on a switch to lower the
associated window. Window switches operate
at two levels:
• To lower a window fully, press the switch
all the way down and immediately release.
• To lower a window partially, press the
switch gently and release when the
window is where you want it.
Similarly, pull a switch to raise the associated
window:
• To raise a window fully, pull the switch all
the way up and immediately release.
• To raise a window partially, pull the switch
gently and release when the window is
where you want it.
If a window is left open unintentionally, Model
3 can send a notification to the mobile app
(touch
Controls > Locks > Car Left Open
Notification, then choose Doors & Windows).
You can also enable Close Windows on Lock
by touching Controls > Locks > Close
Windows on Lock. When enabled, your
vehicle automatically closes the windows
when Model 3 locks.
NOTE: See Cold Weather Best Practices on
page 88 for information on preparing
windows for cold weather.
CAUTION:
To avoid damage, windows
automatically lower slightly when you
open or close a door. If you manually
raise a window when the door is open,
ensure it is slightly lowered before
closing the door.
WARNING:
Before closing a window, it
is the driver’s responsibility to ensure
that all occupants, especially children,
do not have any body parts extended
through the window’s opening. Failure
to do so can cause serious injury.
Locking Rear Windows
To prevent passengers from using the rear
window switches, touch
Controls > Locks >
Window Lock. To unlock the rear windows,
touch Window Lock again.
WARNING: To ensure safety, it is
recommended that you lock the rear
window switches whenever children
are seated in the rear seats.
WARNING: Never leave children
unattended in Model 3.
Calibrating Windows
In the unlikely event that a window behaves
unexpectedly (touches the bright molding,
fails to open or close properly, goes down
more than normal when the door opens, etc.),
you can calibrate it to potentially
fix the issue.
To calibrate a window:
1. Close the door with the aected window.
2.
Sit in the driver's seat and close the driver
door.
3. Using the window's switch on the driver's
door,
raise the aected window until it
stalls.
4.
Using the window's switch on the driver's
door,
lower the aected window until it
stalls.
5. Repeat step 3 and raise the aected
window until it stalls.
The window should now be calibrated. If the
issue continues after attempting the
calibration procedure a couple times, contact
Tesla.
