Keeping Cool in Your Car
Chill Out or Crank up the Heat!
Tap the touchscreen to tweak the temperature, fan, and seat heaters! Use the temperature icon to set the perfect climate, the fan icon to adjust airflow, and the seat icons to toast your tush. Stay comfy and in control!
HOW DO I ADJUST THE CABIN CLIMATE?
Select the temperature icon (degree number) to set the temperature, the fan icon to set the fan speed, and the seat icons to heat the seats.
HOW DO I ADJUST THE REAR A/C?
To turn the rear A/C on, select the left-hand tab labeled “rear,” then turn on the rear fan. The button will turn blue when the setting is on and turn gray when the setting is off. The rear A/C is off by default.
More things to know about making adjustments
Does running the A/C reduce my mileage?
Just as the use of instruments and accessories burns gas in a gas-powered car, using these items in Model 3 will deplete the battery faster than not using these items.
Will the A/C continue to operate when I exit a Tesla?
By default, all features power down when the Tesla powers down. If you’d like to keep the cabin climate operating while you are outside of the car, select the fan icon and then select On in the Keep Climate On pop-up. This setting will shut off when the battery reaches 20%.
