Tesla Model 3 - Page 122

NOTE: When Chill is selected, Chill displays on the
touchscreen above the driving speed.
NOTE: If equipped with the Acceleration Upgrade
package, the modes of acceleration are Chill and Sport.
Steering Mode: Adjust the amount of eort required to
turn the steering wheel.
Sport feels more responsive
whereas Comfort feels easier to drive and park (see
Adjusting Steering Eort on page 47).
Regenerative Braking: When you release the
accelerator when driving, regenerative braking slows
Model 3 and feeds any surplus energy back to the
Battery. If set to LOW, Model 3 does not slow down as
quickly, but also feeds less energy back to the Battery
(see Regenerative Braking on page 62).
NOTE: Regardless of the setting selected, the energy
gained by regenerative braking is reduced if the Battery
is full, or is extremely cold or hot (in which case, surplus
energy is used to heat or cool it).
NOTE: The regenerative braking setting is not available
on all vehicles.
Stopping Mode: Choose how you want Model 3 to
behave once regenerative braking has reduced the
driving speed to a very low speed, a driving gear is still
engaged, and both the accelerator and brake pedals are
released. See
Stopping Mode on page 62. You can
adjust this setting only when Model 3 is in Park.
Track Mode: (available on Performance vehicles only)
when enabled, this mode modifies the vehicle's stability
control, traction control, regenerative braking, and
cooling system to increase performance and handling
while driving on closed circuit courses (see
Track Mode
on page 69).
Slip Start: Turn Slip Start ON to disable traction control
and allow wheels to spin to make it easier to dislodge
the vehicle when stuck in mud, snow, ice, etc. (see
Traction Control on page 65).
Autopilot
Autopilot features that provide a safer and more
convenient driving experience. Some Autopilot features
are not controlled through
Controls. See About
Autopilot on page 80 for more information.
• Autosteer (Beta): Enable the auto steering feature
(available only if your vehicle is equipped with an
Autopilot package) (see
Autosteer on page 88).
• Navigate on Autopilot (Beta): Navigate on Autopilot
automatically exits at o-ramps and interchanges
based on your navigation route and can also make
lane changes designed to prepare for exits and
minimize the driving time to your destination
(available only if your vehicle is equipped with an
Autopilot package). Touch
Customize Navigate on
Autopilot to specify how you want Navigate on
Autopilot to operate, such as whether you want it to
automatically enable at the start of every trip, how
you want it to perform lane changes, etc. (see
Navigate on Autopilot on page 92).
NOTE: Navigate on Autopilot is not available in all
market regions.
•
Trac Light and Stop Sign Control (Beta) (if
equipped): You can enable the ability for Model 3 to
automatically stop at trac lights and stop signs
(see
Trac Light and Stop Sign Control on page 95).
•
Green Trac Light Chime: If on, a chime sounds
when you are waiting at a red trac light and the
light turns green. If you are not actively using Trac-
Aware Cruise Control and are waiting at a red light
with a car in front of you, the chime sounds when
the car advances ahead of you.
• Full Self-Driving Visualization Preview (if equipped):
Display more details about the roadway and its
surroundings, such as road markings, stop lights,
objects (such as trash cans and poles), etc. This may
not be available on certain vehicle
configurations or
in some market regions.
•
Summon (Beta): Automatically park and retrieve
Model 3 from outside the vehicle (available only if
your vehicle is equipped with an Autopilot package)
(see Summon on page 104).
Customize Summon: Determine the bumper
clearance, distance, amount of side clearance, and
whether Summon requires continuous press when
active.
•
Set Speed: Choose whether you want your initial
cruising speed, when you engage Trac-Aware
Cruise Control or Autopilot, to be set to the
currently detected speed limit, or your current
driving speed. If you choose
SPEED LIMIT, you can
choose either a FIXED oset, in which the speed is
adjusted by a specific number of mph (km/h) on all
roads, or a
PERCENTAGE oset, in which the speed
adjustment varies depending on the detected speed
limit of the road. See Trac-Aware Cruise Control on
page 83.
•
Speed Limit Warning: Select the type of warnings, if
any, you receive when you exceed the detected
speed limit (see
Speed Assist on page 116).
• Speed Limit: Specify if you want Speed Limit
Warning to use a relative or an absolute speed limit
(see
Speed Assist on page 116). If you choose a
relative speed limit, you can specify an Oset to be
alerted only when you exceed the speed limit by the
specified oset amount.
• Forward Collision Warning: Choose if and when you
want to receive visual and audible warnings in
situations where there is a high risk of a frontal
collision (see
Collision Avoidance Assist on page 113).
• Lane Departure Avoidance: Specify if you want the
steering wheel to vibrate slightly if a front wheel
passes over a lane marking and the associated turn
signal is
o (see Lane Assist on page 110).
