1. Driving speed.
2. On the energy bar, black (or white in night
brightness) represents energy being used during
acceleration and green indicates energy being gained
through regenerative braking. A dashed line appears
on the energy bar when power available for
acceleration or power that can be gained by
regenerative braking is being limited.
Model 3 limits
power for many reasons. Here are just a few
examples:
◦ Acceleration may be limited when the Battery is
reaching a low state of charge or if the powertrain
is hot.
◦ Both acceleration and regenerative braking may
be limited when the ambient temperature is either
very warm or cool.
◦ Regenerative braking may be limited when the
Battery is fully charged.
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 110.
7.
When Autosteer is active (if equipped) and detecting
the driving lane, the lane is highlighted in blue (see
Autosteer on page 88).
NOTE: If Navigate on Autopilot is active, the driving
lane displays as a single blue line in front of Model 3
(see Navigate on Autopilot on page 92).
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 118).
NOTE: When anticipating when you need to charge,
use range estimates as a general guideline only.
9. The detected speed limit (see Speed Assist on page
116)
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
83).
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.
