Parts, Accessories, and
Modifications
Use only genuine Tesla parts and accessories.
Tesla performs rigorous testing on parts to
ensure their suitability, safety, and reliability.
Purchase these parts from Tesla, where they
are professionally installed and where you can
receive expert advice about
modifications to
Model 3. Accessories are available for
purchase from Tesla stores or online at
www.tesla.cn.
NOTE: Some accessories may not be available
in your market region.
Tesla is unable to assess parts manufactured
by other distributors and therefore accepts
no responsibility if you use non-Tesla parts on
Model 3.
WARNING: Installing non-approved
parts and accessories, or performing
non-approved modifications, can
aect the performance of Model 3 and
the safety of its occupants. Any
damage caused by using or installing
non-approved parts, or by performing
non-approved modifications, is not
covered by the warranty.
WARNING: Tesla does not accept
liability for death, personal injury or
damage that occurs if you use or
install non-approved accessories or
make non-approved modifications.
Body Repairs
If your Model 3 is in a collision, contact Tesla
or a Tesla-approved Body Shop to ensure that
it is repaired with genuine Tesla parts. Tesla
has selected and approved body shops that
meet strict requirements for training,
equipment, quality, and customer satisfaction.
Some repair shops and insurance companies
might suggest using non-original equipment
or salvaged parts to save money. However,
these parts do not meet Tesla's high
standards for quality,
fit and corrosion
resistance. In addition, non-original
equipment and salvaged parts (and any
damage or failures they might cause) are not
covered by the warranty.
Replacing Cabin Filters
Model 3 has air filters that prevent pollen,
industrial fallout, road dust, and other
particles from entering the cabin through the
vents. Tesla recommends replacing these
filters every 2 years (every year in China).
Cabin
filters can be purchased at the Tesla
online store.
To replace the cabin filters:
1.
Turn o the climate control system.
2.
Move the front passenger seat fully
rearwards and remove the front
passenger
floor mat.
3.
Working from top-to-bottom, use a trim
tool to carefully release the right side
panel from the center console.
4.
Use a clip pry tool to carefully release the
push clips that secure the front passenger
footwell cover to the instrument panel.
Then, while supporting the footwell cover,
disconnect the two electrical connectors
and move the footwell cover aside.
5. Remove the T20 screw that secures the
cabin filter cover to the heating,
ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC)
module then release the cabin
filter cover
and move it aside.
NOTE: If the HVAC module does not have
a cabin
filter cover, reinstall the trim
panels and contact Tesla.
WARNING:
Do not stretch, bend,
or otherwise damage the orange
High Voltage (HV) cables that are
attached to the cabin filter cover.
If the HV cables are damaged,
immediately discontinue this
procedure. HV shock can result in
serious injury or death.
6.
Fold the upper cabin filter’s tab upward
and the lower
filter’s tab downward.
