Use voice commands to easily control
settings and preferences without using the
touchscreen. You can ask Model 3 to do just
about anything, such as adjusting climate
controls and media preferences. Available
commands include most features that are
managed by the touchscreen except driving-
related commands, for example shifting drive
modes.
Voice commands are designed to understand
natural requests. You can use voice
commands to:
• Adjust climate preferences.
•
Tweak the windshield wiper speed and
frequency.
•
Control various aspects of your vehicle.
•
Navigate to a location.
•
Call a contact.
•
Interact with apps and settings.
To initiate a voice command, press and
release the right scroll wheel button on the
steering wheel. When you hear a chime, make
your request and the vehicle responds.
